Maddie joins Caitlin to cover Red Rooms, a 2023 movie that is part horror thriller, part courtroom drama. It's one that really stuck with us, both for its masterful direction and its shocking acts of "nonphysical violence." Highly recommend.

Tangents include: the Lady of Shallot, astrology (duh), Canada, eyesight, FMKs for meats and Real Housewives, cryptids in the wild, what scared us as kids, Osama Bin Laden, and pasta shapes.

Victor joins Caitlin to cover Jonathan Glazer's Under the Skin, a 2013 movie about a monstrous femme alien figure. We discuss the movie's gender dynamics, sound design, use of nudity, and overall messaging, landing in a place of "discovering humanity."

Tangents include: Galaxy Con, Author Con, D&D, pet peeves, alien space vampires, SPF, FMKs for gym equipment and new releases, and childhood career projections.

Tangents include: collections, smoking, acknowledgements, book clubs, ice cream, ouija boards, and Disney. 

Charlie joins Caitlin to cover 2017's Revenge, by director Coralie Fargeat, who gave us The Substance in 2024. We talk about Fargeat's unique style, which combines realism with hyper-stylized elements, her body horror trends, and her feminist themes. We also talk about the controversy around rape revenge as a narrative structure. It's a movie we both really enjoy.

Tangents include: animal vomit (aww), Faulkner, espanol, Mary Vincent, 2025 horror, names, Casey Anthony, theaters, icebreaker fun facts, ice cream toppings, Tori Amos albums, and horror duo BFFs. 

Keith of the Horror Convos Podcast joins Caitlin to cover 1995's Species, a movie that is both campy and complex. We talk about the movie's themes and production, and we cover many horror tropes: the succubus, Frankenstein monsters, monstrous menstruation, monstrous motherhood, and science gone awry.

Tangents include: fighting sharks vs fighting gators, believing in aliens and/or ghosts, tarot readings, sci fi universes we'd live in, and technology we'd like to see. Be sure to check out Horror Convos!

Charlie joins Caitlin to cover Strange Darling, a recent erotic thriller from JT Mollner.

We both really loved the movie, and we enjoyed taking a closer look at the gender themes throughout.

Zach, Maddie, Colleen, and Mary join Caitlin to recap 2024 in horror. We each give our top five horror movies of the year, including some honorable mentions, and we dunk on the ones that disappointed us. We also talk about trends in horror as well as what we're looking forward to in 2025.

Tangents include: donkeys and being "donkey drained" (TM Colleen), The Matrix, dangeous animal companions, things we learned this year, a fabled Yellowjackets podast, 2024 horror Oscar noms, preferred theater seating, scrunching vs folding toilet paper, eating digits (phalanges) and digts (numerals), best and worst Christmas gifts, tech that will fizzle, and what we'd steal from our childhood malls.
