Art the Clown has already established himself firmly within the horror genre as a modern day horror icon and it’s about time he returns for more kills and good times. We were disappointed we couldn't watch this at FrightFest but are glad it’s finally time to see whether this follow up can deliver a sequel that feels like a long time in the making. The run time is a scary one though so we may need some good kills and laughs from Art to enjoy this one. Ending the show Mike gives his closing thoughts on the finale of The Walking Dead and that even in the end; this show will never truly die.

After looking forward to this one for many months it’s finally time to see if lightning can strike twice for Ti West. He already released one of our favourite horror films of the year in X and now he's already returning with a prequel that promises a very different style of horror film. Can he do the unthinkable and release two of the best horror films in the same calendar year? It would be a truly unprecedented feat. Elsewhere this week; Welcome to Derry is still going ahead at HBO Max. Shudder is also offering us some Christmas horror next month. And we end the show by celebrating making a new fan for Rob Zombie.

Netflix has given us some of the best and worst TV of the year so far so we really hope that this one is more Stranger Things than Resident Evil. With Guillermo del Toro presenting and a very packed list of directors and actors to boot; Cabinet of Curiosities certainly had our attention and we give a breakdown of all 8 episodes/short films and whether this is a must watch or an avoid for horror fans. Elsewhere this week; Scream is returning slightly sooner than expected. And ending the show Matt sums up his experience watching the Nightmare sequels recently and Mike explains why The Midnight Club doesn’t have that usual Mike Flanagan polish.

This busy period doesn’t look like stopping anytime soon and we are more than happy to keep the spooky season going for another month. After sadly missing its screening at FrightFest a few months ago; we’re extremely excited to check out one of the most talked about horror films of the year that we know almost nothing about. A rarity these days and we’re really glad we didn’t know what this film had up its sleeve. Elsewhere this week; Friday the 13th is finally returning and following many other iconic horror franchises by moving to the small screen. HBO’s The Last of Us gets a leaked release date. And we end by talking about a cavalcade of recent TV shows including the most insane episode of Chucky to date.

As we get closer to Halloween it seems like Matt’s voice becomes even more zombified but the show must go on as we have way too many interesting horror films to talk about now and for the foreseeable future. V/H/S made its triumphant return last year to Shudder and now with this follow up, the 5th entry overall, can this franchise continue to be the perfect vehicle for filmmakers to bring wild and wacky ideas to the table? Let’s find out. Elsewhere this week, Tobin Bell returns to Saw last year and with the current state of the franchise we can’t get excited for it right now. And ending the show we once again look ahead to the films we have on the immediate horizon.

You thought the madness was over after finally getting to discuss the new Hellraiser last week but it’s only just begun. We now have the small matter of discussing the conclusion to the trilogy of Halloween films and the end of Michael and Laurie’s story. Last year’s film was a huge disappointment but this conclusion does serve us the entire premise of this new trilogy; the final battle. Surely it won’t be as bad right? Right? Anyways, also this week; V/H/S already gets a new instalment announced ahead of its return later this week. Hell House LLC is also making a return to Shudder next year. And the latest episode of Chucky gets us back on track after a rocky season opener.

The Hell Priest is back. The puzzle box is back. Hellraiser is back. After many discussions and debates we finally get to answer the question that’s been on our lips all year; can they make the first good Hellraiser film in 30 years? The answer might be a difficult one to process. Elsewhere this week; two new trailers for Violent Night and M3GAN have both caught our attention. Smile kills it at the box office. And finally we discuss the return of Chucky and what our hopes for the rest of Season 2 and catch up on some Middle-Earth shenanigans. 

Hellraiser is available exclusively on Hulu now

To kick off the spooky season we have an original horror film rated 18 that was released in cinemas. Not a bad way to start this crazy horror filled month off is it? Smile has an easy concept to sell and a fun marketing strategy but does the film deliver a scary smile or just an awkward cringey one? Let’s find out. Also this week; American Horror Story season 11 finally gets a name and date. Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu takes another step closer to reality. And ending the show we discuss the merits of a 31 days of Halloween challenge and get very excited for the return of two classic horror icons next week.

**Sorry for the audio issues this week. Discord hates us. :( **

The cinema releases are coming thick and fast and next up is a psychological thriller boasting an all star cast. But can it bring something new to the genre in ways we haven’t seen before or is it just another sci-fi light drama with nothing unique to offer? Let’s find out. Also this week; The Last of Us finally gets a trailer and we couldn’t be happier. Night at the Cabin also makes a strong first impression. We also talk about Rob Zombie’s new ‘child friendly’ film and whether it’s worth a watch for his hardcore horror fans.

Spooky season is nearly upon us where a whole host of famous horror icons are about to return to the big and small screens hopefully with great new entries. But before all that we’ve got a film which snuck out while we were having a blast at FrightFest to catch up on. The Invitation is the latest new take on a tale as old as time; posh British families and the weird stuff they get up to. The premise had us hooked but does it deliver? Let’s find out. Also this week; we finally got our first look at Hellraiser which is out extremely soon and our first impression is a very good one. Ending the show Mike has finished Season 1 of The Leftovers and it’s as depressing and fantastic as Matt said it was and we discuss why American Horror Stories just isn’t what we wanted it to be.
