Welcome to Horror

After last episode’s celebrations, we’re back to our normal scheduled programming; this time we’re watching the 2011 remake of “Fright Night”, a film in which macho vampires hit on your mum, the 10th Doctor gets all sweary and McLovin is rapidly running out of limbs.

Along the way we discuss “Game of Thrones”, “The Mist” and the TV version of “What We Do In The Shadows”.

2 Years.

50 Episodes.

71 Films.

8 guests.

It’s our 50th episode, so we’re taking a quick look back over the past 2 years of the Podcast. Nothing to watch this time (although we make no promises on spoilers) so join us as we look back, and look forward to episodes to come.

Thanks to everyone who’s joined us for the past 50 episodes, both contributors and listeners - you make the whole thing worthwhile, and without you, it’s three men bickering in a small room.

We’re joined by long-time listener, first-time guest Chris Jones! And this time we’re watching 1985’s “Fright Night”. A film in which indiscreet vampires eat a lot of fruit, a future porn star turns into a wolf and Roddy McDowall is the fucking man!

Along the way, we discuss the career of the late lamented Larry Cohen, “Mega Time Squad” and “Love Death + Robots”.

Welcome To Horror Episode 48 “The Cabin In The Woods” is available now on Soundcloud, Apple Podcast App/iTunes Store, and at welcometohorror.com

This week, the team are joined by Dani to watch 2011’s brilliant “The Cabin In The Woods”. A film in which we learn how to spot a husband’s bulge, ponder the apocalypse with stoners and every dumb horror movie trope suddenly has an explanation.

Along the way, we discuss “Game of Thrones”, “Hannibal”, “Hey Duggee”, “American Psycho”, “Antfarm Dickhole”, the works of Darren Aronofsky and answer another #askwelcometohorror

Lee and Chris are joined by Drew, to watch the 2009 remake of “Friday The 13th”. A film in which Jason controversially takes a hostage (as opposed to Manhattan) and a speed wank seems like a good idea when someone’s just left the room.

Along the way we discuss Jordan Peele, Mandy, Army of Darkness and celebrate our 2 year anniversary.

If you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise, as you’ll find the WTH team sat there watching Sam Raimi’s classic “The Evil Dead”.

A film which teaches you how to perform some Derren Brown style card counting, the worst place to keep a pencil, and the benefits of having secateurs on you at all times.

Along the way we pay homage to the man, the myth and the chin that is the mighty Mr Bruce Campbell and discuss Netflix original “Love, Death + Robots”.

The team celebrates St Patrick’s Day by watching 1993’s absurd “Leprechaun”, in which a devious child-genius takes advantage of the mentally challenged, Warwick Davis has more vehicles than Batman and Jennifer Aniston learns to not accept collect calls from anyone called “Andy”.

Along the way we discuss “True Detective”, “Hellier”, “Tentacles”, “In The Night Garden” and Adam’s gastroscopy.

This week, we’re joined by Westley Smith, musician, artist and creator of our logo, to watch one of Vincent Price’s finest hours - The Abominable Dr. Phibes!

A film in which we see Vincent Price talk though the back of his neck, the cutest killer bats ever, and Terry-Thomas pulls his handle off whilst watching a blue movie.

Along the way we discuss “Wild At Heart”, “Horror Express” and “Overlord”.

It’s Adam’s Birthday choice, and he’s picked feel-good family favourite “Kill List”. (This is a joke! Seriously, don’t watch this with gran and the kids).

A disturbing film from the brilliant Ben Wheatley in which we discover interesting uses for a hammer, observe the best way to deal with guitars at the dinner table, and The Shark Song has an entirely different meaning.

Along the way we discuss “Split”, “Master’s of Horror”, “Mother” and morn the passing of Dick Miller.

Will Chris enjoy Kill List? Will Lee make it to the end without anti-depressants? Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers, join us, and find out.

The team return to Southend’s Horror-On-Sea festival for the second year in a row!

Having enjoyed the selection last year, we again picked a day (Saturday 19th January), and bring you reviews of some of the excellent fare we stuck into our eyeballs.

We review the features Mr Crispin, Hell’s Kitty and Cute Little Buggers, and the shorts Halloween Girls, The Ratman of Southend, Apostles, Backslash and Baby Monitor.

Join us live from the pub, and from the comfort of our new recording space.
