A to Z Horrorcast

This week on the podcast, the guys try to break down the frankly baffling cult classic slasher Sleepaway Camp which was a pick from Patreon member John -- Thanks John! Join us as we try but immediately fail to not compare this movie to Friday the 13th and also discuss the technicalities of whether Billy Joel has been to every Billy Joel show. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon pr...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a long look at 1986's Aliens. There's a lot of high minded debate about comparisons to the original and subjective versus objective enjoyment, but all that takes a back seat when a very loopy Jack seizes on a chance to talk about the Great Gazoo at length. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to s...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a hard look at the under-discussed 2014 body horror clown movie that is Clown. Join us as we break down the movie, but not before getting really into what might be in a normal pediatrician's kit and what graffiti kids in the 90s were most likely to write on elementary school bathroom stalls. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds conti...

This week on the podcast, the guys tackle the classic (?) 80's movie that is C.H.U.D. We dive all the way into that, but not without first discussing the abundance of Ross Dress for Less's on Oahu, pop punk, and gimmicky 90's board games. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who...

This week on the podcast, the guys tackle the unmitigated classic that is Scanners! Join us as we break the movie down and discuss whether you do, in fact, wanna take it. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who can get pregnant. You can find our Patreon at patreon.com/atozhorror...

This week on the podcast, the guys take on an unmitigated classic in Wayne's World . . . err. . .ummm . . . Scanners! Yeah, Scanners! We break the movie down and also tease some stories from when Jack saw Shutter on a date in high school. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who...

This week on the podcast, the guys take on the undeniable summer blockbuster that is Jurassic Park. We start by breaking down whether or not it's actually horror, but then quickly devolve on an almost unprecedented number of tangents. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who can...

This week on the podcast, the guys tackle the fundamentally unique take on the zombie genre that is 2008's Pontypool. We also break down all of the horror movies coming out in July of 2022 (good timing on our part). Obviously, all of that can't be accomplished without also talking about Jack's issues with the Dewey Decimal System, and a whole lot of nostalgia for terrestrial radio. Grab some beers...

We've got a doozy for you this week, as we review a long overdue recommendation from friend of the show Ty in 1986's (1985's?) Manhunter! Join us as we discuss the objective best film in cinematic history, sexy tigers, and of course the Canadian Power Rangers and their leader Gordon. Grab some beers and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the b...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a hard look at 2015's The Devil's Candy. Obviously, that necessitates talking about donating TV mounts, the fun kind of satanism, and even an extended venture in the A to Z Horror Legal Corner. Grab some beer and join the fun! All of our Patreon proceeds continue to go to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who can ge...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a look at the 2020 French movie Kandisha. Join us as we break down the movie, but not before pondering the best Ramones songs and how to do the Hospital Crumple. Grab some beers and join the fun! As of now, all of our Patreon proceeds will be going to Planned Parenthood to support the bodily autonomy of women and other persons who can get pregnant. You can f...

The podcast is going up a little late again, but I've been moving and building a fence and things are hard. Anyway, join us for a deep dive into Jeremy Gardner's debut with 2012's The Battery. We talk minor league baseball and jerking off to zombies, but not before we hit living in flavor country and hitting fruit with stuff. Grab some beers and join the fun! As of now, all of our Patreon proceeds...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a long look at 2017's Cargo. We also break down all the new horror movies coming out in June and fill you in on the return of the written HRR segment. Oh yeah, and we talk quite a bit about carrots and sticks. Grab some beers and join the fun! As of now, all of our Patreon proceeds will be going to Planned Parenthood to support the body autonomy of women and...

This week on the podcast, the guys tackle the feature debut effort from the now prolific writing/directing duo of Benson and Moorhead in 2012's Resolution. Join us as we breakdown the film, do our best to not talk about a later but related film, and extoll the virtue of public libraries. Grab some beers and join the fun! Also, as mentioned on the podcast, as of June 1, 2022, all of our Patreon pro...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a deep dive into the fundamentally strange film Tetsuo: The Iron Man from 1989. Join us as we reveal our ignorance about Japanese culture and reveal Buddy Holly's secret metal b-sides. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about putting some toward people who need it in Ukraine. One place we've given is the Internatio...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a deep dive into 2015's Demon. On a serious note, there's a brief content warning for self harm as we shortly discuss the tragedy surrounding the release of the film and the filmmaker before we start talking about the movie itself. On a less serious note, come for Jack's weird energy at the beginning, and stay for Jack's explanation of his weird energy after...

Hey everyone, I (Jack) had some family stuff recently that has prevented new eps from coming out. All is well and we'll be back next week, but in the meantime, we hope you enjoy this repack from about a year ago! This week on the podcast, the guys take a deep and weird dive into the 2017 Icelandic horror (?) movie Bokeh. Join us as we break down all the critical parts of the film from shopping car...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a hard look at the 1967 classic Wait Until Dark. Things almost immediately deteriorate into romanticizing trains and Jack naming the only (increasingly obscure) baseball players he knows. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about putting some toward people who need it in Ukraine. One place we've given is the Interna...

This week on the podcast, the guys are taking a deep dive into 2018's Cam. This episode had some audio glitches, so please forgive the 30 seconds or so of audio where we had to use Mark and Jake's backup recording. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about putting some toward people who need it in Ukraine. One place we've given is the International Medica...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a long look at the 2016 flick Beyond the Gates! We also talk about upcoming horror movies and announce a change to our Horror Release Roundup situation, but also get real weird with a Freddi Fish based competition, old-timey pranks, and then a distressingly intellectual discussion. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do thin...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a deep dive into what could be argued is another bummer of a flick, but could not be argued is not a hell of a thing, it's 2016's the VVitch! Join us as we break down important topics like Jeffery Donovan speaking in Olde English and religious topics we know nothing about. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about p...

This week on the podcast, the guys take a deep dive into 2014's Last Shift! Notably, this is not The Last Shift, and especially isn't The Last Watch. Join us as we Jack talks about Patriot (again), Mark talks about the Wild Thornberrys (again), and we discuss why Jake would be a good trial witness (not again). Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about put...

This week on the podcast, the guys get real weird as they break down the 2000 Darren Aronofsky classic Requiem for a Dream. This movie was suggested by Patreon member TJ, thanks (?) TJ! We also talk about HRR, except we aren't posting HRR to our website anymore, so do with that what you will. Grab some beers and join the fun! Don't put your money toward us, but do think about putting some toward p...

This week on the podcast, things get sloppy as we break down the 2016 movie Prevenge. Join us as Jack's wife makes a guest appearance, but not before Jack complains about the bar exam and the olympics, and Mark holds down the fort. Grab some beers and join the fun! As a reminder, all of our patron proceeds are going to Feeding America, so you can check all that out here: patreon.com/atozhorror And...

This week on the podcast, the guys tackle a meta cult classic in 2006's Hatchet, written and directed by Adam Green. Join us as we break down the movie, but not before talking quite a lot about Mark's pants. Also, give us some credit, because we didn't even make a single Gary Paulsen joke. I definitely didn't edit any of those out. Grab some beers and join the fun! As a reminder, all of our patron...
