This month, Tim and Brennan are digging the horror movie skeletons out of the closets of actors nominated for Oscars this year! First, we're starting with Ana de Armas, who was nominated for her performance as Marilyn Monroe in Blonde. But 7 years before that, she was in the scrappy little Eli Roth exploitation film that couldn't, KNOCK KNOCK! Let's talk talk about it!   Love the Podcast? Leave us...

To close out our month of follow-ups, Brennan and Tim are diving back into the feature that followed 1988's Elvira, Mistress of the Dark by a lot longer than seems proper: the 2002 pastiche ELVIRA'S HAUNTED HILLS!   Love the Podcast?

Tim and Brennan are kicking off the new year by following up on titles they covered throughout 2022.

With many thanks to  Patreon subscriber Jack C. we have been given a real doozy of a topic for this week:  Top 5 Movies You Hate That Everyone Else Loves Seems pretty innocuous, right? WRONG . This topic is at the foundation of where all blood baths are formed. Tensions where high, but the episode remained *mostly* cordial, due to pure mental and emotional fatigue from our respective hosts. Whose...

Christmas ( or whatever holiday makes you giddy with glee ) came early here at Alternate Ending.

It's Halloween! - so to celebrate, we're doing a deep dive into horror. Specifically the squishy, gooey, gross-out side of horror as we discuss our top 5 gory movies. Cannibals, zombies, particularly messy vampires - if it's accompanied by a whole fuckload of red-dyed Karo syrup, we're going to be splashing around in all of its revolting excess. There will, as the fella said, be blood. Especially,...

This week, Brennan and Tim are turning their attention to one of the most mysterious objects in cinema history: a prequel to The Turn of the Screw starring Marlon Brando as Peter Quint and Stephanie Beacham as Miss Jessel.

On this week's episode we answer all of your probing questions. How did Carrie survive 2 weeks with Rob "away"? Was Rob really "away" or have Carrie and Tim secretly chopped him into bits and hid him in the floor boards? Why do we keep putting "away" in quotes? Find out when we're joined by an extra special guest to tell all - tune in! ----------------------------------------------------- Love the...

One of our favorite episodes of the year is here - where we sit down to debate the merits of the best of the Summer! It was an odd episode, overflowing with mayhem for may reasons, including ( but not limited to ) Carrie taking the reins as host and having the most overlap with Tim's picks for the season than ever before.  How will Tim react? Well, you'll just have to tune in to find out! Rob Top...

In 1985, when the first Fletch film was released in theaters, Marcia Gay Harden was a broke NYU grad student who was still 5 years away from her breakout role in Miller's Crossing . In the subsequent 37 years, Lady Marcia Gay Harden (inside joke you'll have to listen to understand) has racked up not only over 120 film and tv credits, but an Academy and Tony Award. But, as she tells it, her proudes...
