Movies discussed: Little Monsters, Nightwish, Doctor Sleep, The Whistler (short) This week we learn you can identify Little Monsters by their over-acting, Nightwish gets a flag on the play for excessive use of dream logic, and Doctor Sleep is just what the doctor ordered. Next weeks assignments: I Am the Pretty Thing Thing That Lives in the House Poltergeist II: The Other Side What Lies Beneath Sp...

Movies discussed: Dust Devil, Bliss, The Curse, Over (short) We had a rough go of it this week. The Curse wasn’t great, but it was gross. Dust Devil was a bit thin.

The Whistler | Official Trailer | d...

Movies discussed: Color Out Of Space, Housewife, The Poughkeepsie Tapes, M is for Marble (short) We settle in to Color Out Of Space this week and find its weirdness quite enjoyable.

Movies discussed: Luz, Sweetheart, Season of the Witch, Boxgirl (short) Sweetheart was as endearing to us as the name implies! Then we watched Luz . . . . the less said the better. (Which is not ideal for a podcast.) Season of the Witch seems like a missed opportunity, but maybe there was more there that we never got to see. Next weeks assignments: Tammy and the T-Rex Head Count The Marshes Suki (...

Movies discussed: The Wrath, Crawl, 3 from Hell, My First Murder (short) One of the three of us liked 3 from Hell this week, and three of the three of us liked The Wrath and Crawl. That last sentence was kinda like a math word problem. (Matt is bad at math) Next weeks assignments: Salem’s Lot (1979) Creepshow (2019) Episode 6 The Dorset (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll...

Movies discussed: Eli, Nightmare Cinema, Creepshow (2019) Episode 5, A Play (short) This week Nightmare Cinema gets mixed results, which seems par for the course wirth anthologies. Eli puzzles and prods, and Creepshow turns in one of its best segments yet. Next weeks assignments: Crawl The Wrath 3 from Hell My First Murder (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next week....

Movies discussed: The Pool, Creepshow (2019) Episode 4, Wax Mask, Slikk (short) We find ourselves agreeing to a great degree this week about The Pool, Creepshow Episode 4, and Slikk, while opinions varied about Wax Mask. Now, as to whether or not we agreed that we all liked or disliked any of the above is a separate matter. Next weeks assignments: Nightmare Cinema Eli Creepshow (2019) Episode 5 A...

Movies discussed: In the Tall Grass, The Furies, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Firebase (short) This week has us divided on at least one movie, and either calling out or admitting to our own biases.

Movies discussed: One Cut of the Dead, Creepshow (2019) Episode 1, Creepshow (2019) Episode 2, Under Covers (short) One Cut of the Dead delights us with it’s lovingly complex absurdity, and the first two episodes of Creepshow (2019) may be a mixed bag, but leave us wanting more.
