Hey Everyone! This time it's! The Amityville Horror (1979) more like Scammityville Borer...spoiler alert! And the more recent choice is the Spanish film Don't Listen (2020), also known as Voces in Europe. Don't Listen comes to us from one of our own Patreon supporters who continually suggested it until we gave in. Persistence is key kids! We're glad we finally listened! These two movies pair well together, and we think this is a fun episode! For some BTS pics from Don't Listen, check out the makeup FX team's Instagram, OXUM FX . There's a lot of cool stuff there.

They're here! This one's got a fantastic classic Poltergeist from the summer of (1982) and a new one, Presence (2025) that lots of folks have been talking about. Just wait till you hear James, Steven Soderbergh impersonation. It's spot on! Some good behind-the-scenes content about Poltergeist (I wish Craig Reardon had an Instagram account!). There's a bit about the "curse" of Poltergeist, and as usual, a lot of laughs were had.

This one's Looong. That's okay, we think most of you like that...In anticipation of our live show in Crystal Lake, Illinois, on Friday June 13th, we have pre-reviewed the movie we will be screening there. Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) and a movie it pairs damn well with Finn Wolfhard's horror comedy, A Hell of a Summer (2025) This is a good way to kick off the summer for us here with some campy camp counselor slashing. If you're anywhere near Crystal Lake, Illinois, on Friday, June 13th, plan to come to the show. On Crystal Lake outside! There are some tickets at the gate, but pre-release is sold out. COME SEE US!

Too much Monkey Bizness! It's another milestone! 20 episodes! Well, look at us go monkeying around! This is another one that comes from the hearts and minds of our Patreon supporters on the Discord. We wanted to review Osgood Perkins' latest, The Monkey (2025) based on the Stephen King short story, and they chose George Romero's dare we say...classic? Monkey Shines (1988) to walk down the movie aisle with it. Thank you for reminding us this movie was around! We had quite a few laughs, and we even started to rewrite a Misfits song for it. Because 'Monkey with a straight razor' sounds like a Misfits song, Thanks, Art! That's going to be dropping in a few days, first on Patreon!

So get on a socials and help us spread the word.

It's our 19th episode and our 3rd guest! With the new movie Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) coming out, we wanted to talk to Producer and friend of the show Craig Perry, who was involved in all of those films. Craig was also one of the main producers on the American Pie series, and so much more over the years. He's got a fantastic, fun energy and a lot to say. If you are a fan of the Final Destination movies, we cover all of them in this episode. He gives us a lot of behind-the-scenes stories, and even answers some questions our supporters wanted to know. It's a really terrific interview. Plus, Mike introduces him using the voice of Casey Kasem (yeah, most of you won't get that), and there's a mishap at the drive-in in the lobby break.

If you're enjoying the show, and we assume if you made it this far...you are, please review the show somewhere (Apple or Spotify) and help us get the word out. Feeding the algorithm helps more than you know. Thanks!

This episode, Mike and James explore two titles with a little international flair. Both of these movies need a superintendent who's not a jerk to help the cast escape the horrors of their run-down apartment buildings. One has an issue with zombies and the other is infested with spiders... "What Nooo!!" Yes, that's right, Mark Wahlberg. On this episode, we get continental and discuss the now "classic" found footage Spanish film Rec (2007), which has gone on to spawn many sequels since it came out. As well as 2024's French, creepy spider movie Infested (titled Vermine in France). And since they are both in their respective home languages, we felt this was a great pairing suggestion by our Patreon supporters on Discord. So tune up on your French and Spanish classes, kick back and have a listen. If you're enjoying the show, and we assume if you made it this far...you are, please review the show somewhere (Apple or Spotify) and help us get the word out. Thanks!

Thanks for being here with us! In this episode we cover companionship. It’s a beautiful thing that shouldn’t be abused, or mixed with Voodoo apparently. Both of these films show how companionship can go terribly and amazingly wrong. We get deep into the original Childs Play (1988) where Chucky became the horror icon he is today. We talk a lot about the behind the scenes geniuses for Chucky. In a world before digital FX these guys, Kevin Yahger and crew, were rock stars. Our companion film (see what I did there) is Companion (2025) the first feature film from writer and TV director Drew Hancock. Starring Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid.

For a look at Kevin Yahger, who designed and built Chucky, and what else he has been involved in check his insta.

Again Jeremy Selenfriend and his talented crew did a lot of Companion gore see this link.

This week, we are wolf-positive and leapin' n hoppin' on a moon shadow. It's The Howling from 1981. Which is one of the reasons Mike wanted to do makeup FX in the first place. The boys have a good time with this one discussing things like the maturing of young men who saw Marsha for the first time and what's in Dick Miller's bookstore. In our second feature, we discuss Leigh Whannel's new Blumhouse film Wolf Man (2025) There's a lot of behind-the-scenes discussion of the practical FX of both of these films.

For more info on Arjen Tuiten who did the FX on the new Wolf Man film check out his insta.

This is a fun one that's sure to keep you smiling as you look over your shoulder and see who is following you. We talk about David Robert Mitchell's sexually transmitted demon movie It Follows from (2014), and we compare it to Parker Finn’s (2024) sequel Smile 2. There are lots of behind-the-scenes moments on these two films for you knowledge-hungry listeners As well as some references to exotic sexual positions also for you knowledge-hungry listeners.

I wanted to make sure I shared some Instagrams for the artists involved that I mention, so go follow em! Mention you heard about them on the show. It'll make our mom happy.
