Ghostface is back....and we have thoughts! Fresh from the Cinema, we're sitting down for a cosy chat about Scream 7! What worked, what didn't and whether this latest instalment saved the franchise or quietly stabbed it in the back.

We talk opening scenes, the mystery element, the AI themes, the kills, the legacy characters, the reveals, and of course....the ending.

Did it use its legacy wisely? And did it honor the legacy of Scream?

Spoilers throughout - You have been warned!

This week, we're stepping into the teleportation pod and bracing ourselves for full-body horror as we review, The Fly from 1986 - The grotesque and heartbreaking classic from visionary director, David Cronenberg.

What starts as a breakthrough in scientific innovation quickly spirals into one of the most disturbing on-screen transformations in horror history!

With an unforgettable performance by Jeff Goldblum and emotional depth brought by Geena Davis, the film fuses romance, tragedy and stomach-churning practical effects into a masterpiece of horror.

Is it just gross our horror - or a devastating love story, with hidden meanings, wrapped in flesh and science fiction?

Plug in, press teleport and join us....but whatever you do, don't get in the pod alone.

This week, we're diving head first into one of the most infamous horror franchises ever created: The world of 'The Exorcist'. From reports of fainting, vomiting and walkouts in the aisles to its lasting reputation as one of the greatest horrors ever made, we talk about the shockwaves it sent through the 1970's and what it means to us today.

Then we fast forward to 2023 and give our thoughts on The Exorcist: Believer. Did it live up to the legacy? Or did it stumble trying to resurrect one of horror's most sacred (and cursed) properties?

Finally, we look ahead to the future of the franchise with the upcoming Exorcist film from Mike Flanagan. What do we know so far? What's speculation, what's confirmed and can Flanagan's track record of amazing Horrors breathe life into this iconic series? We discuss the confirmed cast, the direction a story could take and whether the franchise can truly rise again.

Is the power of Christ still compelling....or has the franchise lost its faith?

The monsters that built horror are alive again. This week, we dig into the massive resurgence of the Universal Monsters and how a new wave of visionary directors are bringing fresh blood to cinema's most iconic creatures. From Maggie Gyllenhaal's bold reimagining of The Bride, to Lee Cronin unwrapping terror in The Mummy, to Guillermo Del Toro's beautifully gothic Frankenstein, we explore how prestige terror is reshaping legends that have stalked the screen for nearly a century.

We also trace the path of Dark Universe, emerging from Universal's new Epic Universe, and how the studio finally seems to have all the pieces in place to honor the classics while reinventing them for modern audiences.

So join us, as we witness, The Resurrection of the Universal Monsters!

This week, we dive into the dark side of the Oscars. We kick things off with our thoughts on 28 Year Later: The Bone Temple, discussing the film, its themes and our reaction after catching it this week. We then turn our attention to this year's horror Oscar nominations, looking at which films made the cut, how horror has been recognised (or not!) by the Academy in the past, and the horror snubs we think deserved far more recognition.

From prestige to pure terror, this episode is all about horror's place on Hollywood's biggest stage.
