On this episode of Slashers Podcast, things get slimy as we dive headfirst into the cult creature feature Slugs (1988).

It's week 3 of A Novel January and today we have 80's creature feature and pulp fiction novel -- SLUGS!!

Mikey, Ade, and Lance break down the gooey kills, bonkers practical effects, and why this gross-out eco-horror oddity still wriggles its way into horror fans’ hearts.

Is Slugs pure B-movie trash or an underrated gem of creature-feature chaos? We discuss the film’s place in late-’80s horror, its unforgettable set pieces, and whether killer slugs can truly carry a movie. We also compare the film to the novel (which Mikey did read!)

But the slime doesn’t stop there. We’re also joined by author and filmmaker Brandon Perras Sanchez for a quick interview where we talk about his work, creative inspirations, and the overlap between horror literature and independent filmmaking. Brandon chats about storytelling, the challenges of bringing dark ideas to life, and what we can expect from him in 2026!

It’s a fun, gross, and insightful episode packed with killer slugs, cult horror discussion, and creative conversation. So grab your salt, watch your step, and press play.
