While editing future episodes, Dan records a rough and tumble episode of hot takes on movies he's seen recently, talking about everything from the set design in Underwater and Event Horizon, a hypothetical world where Rob Zombie didn't direct Halloween, and how The VelociPastor is for movie lovers.

Dan continues the Shudder Shut-In series in a quick bonus episode, shouting out some of his favorite movies that make him laugh on the platform. (Plus a brief rant on Dan laughing easily and what makes him laugh, because he can't help himself).

It's a dive back into the world of Extreme Cinema as Dan sits down to talk with Danny, David and Pappy of the That's Dark podcast (interview begins @ 7:55), a show all about Extreme Cinema! After talking about the show, the gang dive into what makes for effective cinema in this genre, whether the creator's intent matters, talking to family about the fact that sometimes you watch movies based on The Marquis de Sade. Conversations include talks about movies such as A Serbian Film, Martyrs, Salo Or The 120 Days Of Sodom, and much more!

It's a very special week on Spook Squad, as we debut our very first sit down talk with a guest! This week is part one of Dan's talk with musician, mathematician and friend of a decade, Greg M! The only issue is, Greg gets pretty terrified by horror movies. So how can they share this love? The two talk about the Greg Safe System, politics in cinema, the unlikely bonding experience of watching Paranormal Activity together, and Greg's tumultuous relationship with the Nightmare On Elm Street series.  This conversation is full of laughter and silly anecdotes from a decade on friendship. Stay tuned for part two!
