Horror Weekly

We have an interesting collection this week! We’ll start off with the fairly recent “The Soul Eater” and “Frankie Freako.” We actually forgot that there was a new Ghostbusters movie last year, so we picked that one up as well. Then we’ll look at a couple of oldies, “The Stranglers of Bombay” from Hammer films and “Godzilla vs. Hedorah” (aka “The Smog Monster”). And, of course, we have more excelle...

We’ve got an eclectic mix this week. We’ll start off with the Korean ghost-curse tale, “Exhuma,” and follow that up with the ghostly “Chateau.” Then we’ll drop the ghosts and meet some serial killers in “The Mouse Trap” and “#AMFAD All My Friends Are Dead.” We’ll then go all retro and see what might have happened back in the year 2000 with “Y2K.” And, of course, we have more excellent short films...

After our monthly holiday binge, it’s time to get back to normal. Well, “Normal” is relative with us, but you get the gist. We’ve got a very cool mix of winners and losers for you this week, With one big high, one big low, and some decent films in the middle. We’ll start out with “Werewolves,” a fun film with a crazy premise that really goes off the logic rails. We’ll find out that “It’s What’s In...

This time around, we’ll be discussing our favorite films released in 2024. We made a list of everything we watched that was released in 2024, and we each made a top-ten list. There’s some overlap, so we’ll look at our individual picks first, then look at the ones we both chose. At the end, we’ll also discuss some of the best things we watched this year that WEREN’T new releases. Overall, we’ll dis...

We’re wrapping up our December of Holiday Horror with three more holiday-themed scare classics, starting with our final Christmas outing, “Christmas Bloody Christmas” (2022). Then we’ll ring in the new year with “Ghostkeeper” (1981) and “New Year’s Evil” (1980). Then, we’ll switch back to our regular non-holiday format with two new releases, “Heretic” and “Street Trash,” both released fairly recen...

We’re continuing our December of Holiday Horror with five more holiday-themed scare classics. We’ll begin with an odd home invasion kind of story with 2020’s “Hosts,” then we’ll find that “There’s Something in the Barn” from 2023. We’ll deal with grief and isolation with “The Melancholy Fantastic” from 2011, then visit “The Dorm That Dripped Blood” from 1982. Then we’ll go way back in time to watc...

We’re continuing our December of Holiday Horror with five more holiday-themed scare classics. We’ll open on the hilariously low-budget, yet still somehow awesome, “Cadaver Christmas” from 2011, and then have a fancy dinner with the family in “Mercy Christmas” from 2017. Then we’ll stop and go “Black Friday” (2021) shopping. We’ll then travel to France to get a strange German gift in “The Advent Ca...

We’ll wander around the parking garage looking for a Christmas turkey in “P2” (2007) and then watch an oldie...

Back in December 2022, we thought it would be fun to watch an entire month of Christmas and Holiday themed horror movies . It was easy, and we had a lot of fun doing it. Then, this year, we wondered… could we do it again? Are there even that many Christmas-themed horror movies out there? Oh Yeah. That many and more.  So this will be the first of several weeks of nothing but holiday-themed horror f...

We’re back to our regular mix of new and old films, this time, starting off with “Smile 2” and “Daddy’s Head,” both from this year. We’ll launch into our members-only special with “Alien 3” from 1992 as we cover all the Alien films we haven’t already done. Lastly, we’ll watch a really weird Godzilla movie, “All Monsters Attack” (1969), and then have a snack with “The Food of the Gods” from 1976. ...

This week, we’ve mostly got new films plus one weird oldie. We’ll begin with “Black Cab,” a creepy ghost story. The indie anthology “Dating Horror Stories” warns us how things can go wrong in relationships. We’ll next move on to the silly “Carved,” which would have been a mood-setter if we’d watched it before Halloween. “Curse of the Sin Eater” made us wonder if we’d try taking the deal, and “The...

Well, we all survived Halloween and the elections, so now it’s time for some serious horror! We’ll start off with the high-tech “Afraid” and the low-tech “Mr. Crocket.” We’ll go Down Under for “Rippy” and then off to Fantasyland for “Devil’s Knight.” Finally, we’ll watch a not-so-new found footage film, “Dashcam” (2021).

Just a quick reminder that we’ve launched our companion podcast/newsletter, “ Classics Weekly ,” a brand-new Podcast/Newsletter devoted to classic films. Our second episode, devoted to “Singin’ in the Rain,” launched this week. It’s very similar in format to Horror Weekly, but since it’s only one film each week, we can go more in-depth with trivia and commentary. The third episode, “The Jazz Singe...

Three hundred episodes. Plus One. When we first decided to do a podcast, we thought one about Alfred Hitchcock's films would be fun. Partway through the second episode, we realized that he only made about 50 films, and we wanted to do something more ongoing. We decided to make it more generically about horror films in general. We chose well; with over 1700 films reviewed so far, there is no end in...

Then, we’ll watch “Subservience” and “Voice of Shadows,” which are not funny.

This week, we’ve got a full stack of new films. We’ll open with the much-hyped “Longlegs” and see if we agree with the buzz. We’ll stop in and check out an “Oddity,” try not to die on “Tuesday,” figure out how to get by while “Handling the Undead,” and maybe go to a place where “You’ll Never Find Me.” All of these have been released in 2024.  We’ve also got five fun shorts this week as well.

This week, we’ve got four new films: “Maxxxine,” “Tarot,” “Cursed Waters: Creature of Lake Okanagan,” and the very weird “Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person,” all recently released.

Since our little restructuring last mo...

This week, we’ve got two new films, “Lore” and also “Humane,” both from 2024.
