Closing arguments in the case of Relic v. The Relic. When a giant brain eating monster takes the stand you better pay attention, and the gang breaks down what surprisingly still holds up from a movie from the 90's. Do they act like a "latte" is an insane thing to drink? Sure, but you come for the Stan Winston creatures, not the nostalgia.

In one of the greatest debates in film history, the gang sits down to get to the bottom of the case of Relic v. The Relic and declare an indisputable winner. Will an Australian grandmother covered in black mold take home the trophy, or will it go to the 15 foot long Gecko/Tiger/Beetle monster? 2020's Relic takes the stand today, and the revelations are shocking.

The omphaloskepsis continues (and ends) as the gang looks back on another hundred episodes of horror. They laugh, they cry, they drink some beverages. Here's to another 250, despite your protestations and lamentations.

Man, did you ever think we'd make it to 250 episodes? I don't know why you'd doubt it, because when you put out an episode almost every week for 5 years it happens naturally. Some might say that looking back at our earlier episodes is an exercise in navel gazing, but we prefer to call it omphaloskepsis, thank you very much.

Do you watch slashers for the kills, or to relate to the characters? In case you don't think the gang has covered enough slashing on the show yet, here's another 20 minutes of talk about the genre as a whole. We heard you liked slashers, so we put some slashers in your slashers.

Most serial killings end with a death, but what if all it took to stop one was… a birth? If David Berkowitz was told to kill people by an unborn baby instead of a dog, you’d have something like the 2016 dark comedy slasher Prevenge. Actually, if Spike Lee had made Summer of Sam as a comedy starring a pregnant lady set in England he probably wouldn’t have been nominated for “Worst Supporting Actor” at the Stinkers Bad Movie Awards.

A lot of folks have been avoiding going to the theater recently, not because of covid, but because of the throat slitting slashers. The gang buys a ticket for the 2020 South American Giallo/Slasher “The Last Matinee,” and let’s just say their wallets weren’t the only thing gouged. Think less “Blood and Black Lace” and more “Blood and Butter Popcorn” as the vibe. Did your hosts spring for the extra large with extra butter? You know they did.

The slashing continues with a film that asks, “What if there was a slasher movie, but the slashers were… girls…” Tragedy Girls is exactly that, and doesn’t even contain the cringy Diablo Codyesque dialogue you might expect of a dark teen film like this. Is it dark satire? Well, that depends on your definition I suppose.

Sharpen your knives, the boys are back on a slasher kick. This week’s entry, the never theatrically released (back when that meant something) Cherry Falls. Is it a sexually independent youths film with a slasher? Is it a slasher movie where everyone on screen is DTF every other character, including blood relatives? Or is it just a illogical mess? And what’s up with that giraffe tattoo? Listen and find out!

Monsters. Metaphors. Mishigas? The boys break down the metaphors that classic monsters are supposed to represent, and provide modernized/better examples of them. You’ll never believe what JR thinks the aliens from ‘This Island Earth’ mean!
