Two Chicks and a Horror Flick

The Chicks are back in Hawkins for Stranger Things Season 5: Volume 2, and emotions are HIGH. In this episode, Tawny and Miriam catch up after the holidays before diving headfirst into the second half of the final season—breaking down major moments, lingering questions, and what this volume means as the story barrels toward its end. As always, we wander delightfully off track along the way, because that’s just how we do it. Tangents include: holiday catch-up chaos and post-holiday brain fog, Tawny’s brief but intense love affair with football, dachshund puppies (because why not), and a few more side quests we absolutely did not plan.

It’s our final episode of the year, and you know what that means—it’s time for our annual Year in Review. 🍾🖤

We’re pouring a drink, taking a breath, and looking back at a year filled with unforgettable movies, hot takes we stand by (and a few we absolutely don’t), community moments that meant the world to us, and some truly unhinged horror experiences. From movies that blew us away to ones, eh, not so much, from favorite episodes and WTF scenes to listener questions that sent us spiraling—in the best way—we’re wrapping up the year the only way we know how: together.

This episode is part reflection, part chaos, part love letter to horror, and part love letter to you—our listeners, Discord crew, Patreon fam, and everyone who showed up week after week to scream with us.

Thank you for making this year what it was. We wouldn’t trade this community for anything. Here’s to one more night of horror before we turn the page. 🩸✨

🖤 See you next year, Two Chicks.

The Chicks are heading back to Hawkins…one last time (well, Volume 1 at least)! In this episode, we dive into Stranger Things Season 5: Volume 1, unpacking the tension, the terror, the heartbreak, and the biggest WTF moments the Duffer Brothers have thrown at us so far. We talk character arcs, returning threats, and all the deliciously nostalgic horror influences that make Stranger Things the phenomenon it is. We fangirl hardcore in this episode!

Tangents Include: Sound effects we want to add to the podcast, knitting and sewing adventures, and unnecessary d*ck jokes.

This week, we’re firing up the chainsaw and diving into one of the most influential horror films of all time: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974). Whether you love it, hate it, or simply respect its place in horror history, there’s no denying the cultural impact of Leatherface’s grim, gritty debut.

We break down the dinner scene that feels like a fever dream you can’t wake up from, the wild behind-the-scenes stories that make the movie somehow even more unhinged, and why this sun-baked nightmare still crawls under your skin after all these years. And of course…we air out some very strong, very justified feelings about Franklin. Join us for a fun, unhinged, deeply horror-nerdy breakdown of a movie that shaped the entire genre.

Tangents Include: Why November 1st should officially be Horror New Year’s Day, our complete and utter disdain for Franklin, peeing in a can (yes… it came up), and much more!

For our last Timeless Terror episode we explore witches with the German film Hagazussa. Surprisingly this was the director's debut and a student graduation film. This is one story that's hard to separate the folklore from reality which made for an interesting discussion. Tangents include: religion, caffeine, and history.

In this week’s episode, we’re diving into one of few modern horror slashers — Terrifier. Directed by Damien Leone, this blood-soaked indie became a cult favorite thanks to its sadistic villain, Art the Clown, and its unapologetically brutal approach to slasher horror. Tangents include: The Indifferent Stars Above (a non-fiction book about the Donner Party) and the new Monster: Ed Gein Story Netflix series. This is a pretty catch up heavy episode, so if you want to skip to the movie discussion go to 27:50.

Our first October Timeless Terror movie honors the vampire! 🦇 This week, we sink our teeth into one of the most stylish and seductive vampire tales of the early 2000s—Queen of the Damned. 💀

We’re talking everything from that iconic nu-metal soundtrack (hello, early 2000s nostalgia) to Aaliyah’s unforgettable performance as the fierce and mesmerizing vampire queen, Akasha. 🖤

Join us as we break down the visual style, ancient vampire lore, wild plot twists, and, of course, all the gloriously gothic drama this film delivers.

Expect laughs and plenty of love for vampires who do way too much—in the best way possible. Whether you're a die-hard Anne Rice fan or just here for the aesthetic and eyeliner, this one’s for you.

Queen of the Damned (2002)
Director: Michael Rymer

This week, we’re stepping into Ireland’s misty folklore with Fréwaka—the first Irish-language horror film, and oh boy, it does not hold back. This isn’t just a spooky story; it’s a raw, unsettling look at grief, guilt, and the shadows of tradition.

Join us as we unpack the film’s haunting atmosphere, dreamlike imagery, and the way it weaves Irish cultural roots into horror that lingers long after the credits. So light a candle, keep an eye on the shadows, and get ready for a conversation that’s eerie, heartfelt, and just a little bit unhinged. Tangents include: besides our life updates, we go deep into the movie themes so enjoy!

This week, now screaming: Final Destination Bloodlines (2025)! Death has a brand-new blueprint, and we’re here for it! This week, we dive into Final Destination: Bloodlines—the highly anticipated next entry in the franchise that taught us to fear seatbelts, tanning beds, roller coasters, and literally just being alive. So grab your popcorn, check your surroundings (twice), and join us as we find out if Death’s design still slaps in 2025. Tangents include: Poop cruise, decadent books, pickme girls and tryhard boys.

We are stoked to be talking about another Zach Cregger film! Just like an incredible pasta, the longer we marinate on this movie the more we like it! We try to puzzle out why the film's named Weapons, get into the possible themes, and theorize about everyone's favorite new aunt Gladys. Tangents include: Trainwreck Area 51, Final Destination, and stickers.

If you have seen Weapons we would love to know what you thought about it! Let us know on social media or YouTube!
