Jason from Binge Movies (the B-movie appreciator), Megan from Spoilerpiece Theatre (the beautifully balanced critic), and Paul from The Countdown (the show’s own Scrooge) return to close out one of the bloodiest years in horror history — 1981.
The Blood Pool for this round includes:
The Burning (May 8, 1981) – Campfire tales come to life in this legendary summer-camp massacre featuring early work from Harvey Weinstein’s Miramax and makeup FX master Tom Savini.
Happy Birthday to Me (May 15, 1981) – A prep-school mystery packed with bizarre deaths, psychological twists, and one unforgettable birthday party.
The Prowler (Nov 6, 1981) – A WWII-themed slasher where vengeance and Savini’s most brutal gore collide.
Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker (Nov 20, 1981) – A disturbing mix of domestic madness and queer-coded psychological horror that defies the slasher label entirely.
From this Pool, the hosts pick their winners for:
Best Poster/Box Art
Best Cult Classic
Best Final “Girl”
Best Kill
Best Overall Film
