***LISTENER WARNING IS ADVISED***This month's theme is You Make Me Sick — movies about disease, infection, and things that crawl under your skin. And then there's The Night of Something Strange, which interpreted that as a personal challenge and won.

Talon and Dan dive into one of the most bizarre, disgusting, and downright unhinged horror movies ever made — Night of Something Strange (2016).

What starts as a road trip quickly turns into a full-blown nightmare fueled by a mysterious infection, over-the-top gore, and scenes that will absolutely make you question your life choices. This isn’t just horror… this is shock value turned all the way up.

Is it so bad it’s good… or just straight-up disturbing?

Talon and Dan break down the insanity, react to the wildest moments, and try to figure out what this movie was even trying to do.

If you like weird horror movies, cult horror, or just want to hear two people process absolute chaos in real time, this one’s for you.

Talon and Dan break down The Bay (2012), a found footage eco-horror about pollution, parasites, and a Fourth of July outbreak that wipes out an entire town.

As part of this month’s theme “You Make Me Sick!”, this episode dives into disease horror, environmental horror, and the unsettling idea that something like this could almost happen.

Is The Bay an underrated found footage horror… or just a very long warning about swimming in brackish water?

All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (2006) is a slow-burn slasher that trades jump scares for obsession, jealousy, and quiet menace. Set within a tight circle of teenagers, the film explores how admiration can curdle into fixation — and how popularity can quickly become a liability.

In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Dan leads the discussion on All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, breaking down the film’s themes, pacing, and cult reputation. The conversation digs into the psychology driving the characters, the movie’s delayed release history, and why it continues to divide horror fans years later.

This episode is part of our Kills Like Teen Spirit theme — where teenage emotions, fragile egos, and bad decisions collide with deadly consequences.

Next month’s theme: You Make Me Sick
We kick things off with The Bay, a found-footage horror film about environmental collapse, unchecked infection, and what happens when warnings go ignored.

You can watch The Bay on Plex.

Season 2 of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies is officially back, and we’re kicking things off with Cherry Falls (2000) — the first entry in this month’s theme: Kills Like Teen Spirit.

This theme dives into horror stories centered around teens, high school trauma, and the deadly consequences of growing up — and Cherry Falls wastes no time flipping classic slasher rules on their head. Instead of punishing sexually active teens, this killer targets virgins, setting off panic, secrets, and moral confusion in a small town already rotting from the inside.

Talon and Dan break down the plot, the killer’s motivations, the film’s stacked early-career cast, and why Cherry Falls feels like a movie with big ideas that never quite found its footing.

But there are changes coming...Dan will appear in the first two months of episodes, and then Christopher steps in as the new co-host moving forward. Schedules change, priorities shift, and this felt like the right evolution for Two Cents: We See Scary Movies.

Four hundred bucks for one night of babysitting? Sounds easy — until you realize the kid is imaginary and the family worships Satan.

In this episode, Talon and Dan dig into Ti West’s The House of the Devil (2009) — the slowest of slow burns that somehow still manages to creep under your skin. From real phone numbers to bad pizza choices and red flags you could see from space, this movie proves that “too good to be true” is usually followed by a blood sacrifice.

It’s part of our October theme, Not Just Another Halloween Movie, where we skip the masked maniacs and look at horror films that get weird, unsettling, and way too quiet for comfort.

And next month, we’re carving into Thankslaughter — a season of holiday horror where the family that slays together, stays together. We’ll kick it off with Home Sweet Home (1981) — the Thanksgiving slasher that reminds you not everyone should say grace.

Be scared, be prepared, and don’t get caught in the dark.

This week on Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan head to Hull House for a Halloween party that’s less “trick or treat” and more “summon the damned.”
In this cult classic from 1988, a group of partygoers discover the hard way why you don’t hold séances in abandoned mortuaries. From endless dance sequences and questionable wardrobe choices to demonic possession and one unforgettable lipstick scene, Night of the Demons proves that not every Halloween movie needs Michael Myers to be terrifying—or ridiculous.

This episode also marks a new format for Two Cents: shorter summaries, sharper riffs, and even more chaos as Talon and Dan break the movie into three parts—the Beginning, the Middle, and the End.
If you like this new style, let them know—they just might keep it.

It’s October, and this month’s theme is Not Just Another Halloween Movie — because not every Halloween scare comes from Michael Myers.

Talon and Dan dive into Haunt (2019), a Halloween-night horror that trades mystery for mayhem and scares for splatter. We’re talking questionable choices, plot holes you could drive a hearse through, and a cast of characters that make every wrong move possible.

It’s got the right setup — creepy masks, an extreme haunted house, and a great atmosphere — but somewhere along the way, this one loses the plot. Literally. Join us as we break down what works, what doesn’t, and why this haunted house might’ve been scarier if we’d just stayed home.
