Creepin’ It Reel Horrorcast

Stephen King, Rules! Well, for a couple more weeks anyway. For week 3 Lunchbox chose Creepshow! Why watch just one movie when you can watch five! Is this a horror-comedy? Can an anthology have a 100% success rate? Can anyone stand that many cockroaches on a screen? For all these answers and more, grab some cake and your pet yeti and join us for a visit from The Creep!

Busey and Haim and small towns, oh my! In week two of our Stephen King month, we tackle a couple of podcast firsts: a werewolf movie and a Corey movie! It wouldn’t be a trip to the '80s without at least one Corey sighting, amiright? Join Meg and Lunchbox as they tackle the mystery of the strange creature on a murder spree in a small town. Who is our bloodthirsty werewolf? What is his motivation? A...

Beep beep! Welcome to the Losers’ Club, Slashers and Survivor Girls!  This week we kickoff Stephen King month in the fictional town of Derry, Maine to throw down with an evil clown. This 2017 horror smash broke all kinds of records to become one of the highest grossing horror movies of all time. Does It: Chapter One deserve all the praise? Or does it deserve to float away like an ominous red...

Boooooyyyy. This week is a real loo loo.  Nicholas Cage stars in this bad trip as Red - A regular every-man on a revenge tear after his wife is murdered right before his eyes. If you like strung out bikers and Jesus cults then this neon nightmare may be just what The Chemist ordered. 

Howdy Folks! Today is a sad day in our horror community as we have lost Sid Haig. But we here at Creepin' It Reel like to look on the brighter side. We wanted to give our thanks and honor a true legend in the horror genre. Join us as we jabber jaw for a bit and talk about a wonderful human being, and what he meant to us as fans. Thanks for everything Sid, you will be missed deeply. **CREDIT: Clips...

Gather ‘round, children for a tale of stunted adults and why inbreeding is bad.  This 1967 film stars Lon Chaney Jr. as the tired legal guardian to three young psychopaths (including a 20-something Sid Haig), one of whom shares a close kinship with spiders and another who has a taste for cats! So jump in our TARDIS with Meg and Lunchbox as we take a trip back to the swingin’ ‘60s with Spider...

“He’ll get the blood, but I’ll get the glory.” This week,  Mistress Meg chose the much anticipated showdown that became Freddy vs. Jason. While super fun on the surface and a regular watch, we dig a little deeper and realize there’s a big glaring problem... the script! Will that alter our initial feelings? Or will we just shrug and go with it anyway? ***CREDIT: Clips from Freddy vs. Jason and WWE*...

Do you read Sutter Cane? This week Lunchbox picked In the Mouth of Madness, a movie based on the work by that hack writer Sutter Cane. Kidding. It’s actually a John Carpenter directed psychological horror movie that pays homage to Stephen King, HP Lovecraft, and New England! So put on your crayon-stained scrubs and cuddle up with your favorite tentacle monster as we explore one man’s existential c...

Man, F@¢# clowns! This week we give high praise to the indie B-movie anthology: All Hallows’ Eve. There’s blood, body parts, satanic rituals, and an alien for some reason? Wanna get to know Art the Clown? Pull up a seat, turn out the lights, and grab your security blankie because it’s about to get real spooky up in here. ***MUSIC CREDIT: Noir Deco***

If you listen to this Horrorcast, you’ll be dead by dawn! This week Lunchbox picked Evil Dead 2 as his movie. Commonly voted into everyone’s Top Ten Cult Movies lists, we take a look into whether this Sam Raimi joint deserves a place on those lists. Or does it it go over like Henrietta’s chopped off head? And really, is there anything that Bruce Campbell’s chin can’t make better? ***CREDIT: Openin...

Meg has decided to face her childhood fear and watch Gremlins... with an interesting yet totally expected result. Has she grown past her childhood bad dreams? Or is Joe Dante still supplying her nightmare fuel? And furthermore, is this a comedy? Horror movie? Christmas movie? Who is this movie for exactly? Whatever, Lunchbox is having a good time.

Powerful. Magical. Evil. This week Lunchbox and Mistress Meg tackle Robert Kurtzman’s 1997 joint ‘Wishmaster’. A movie that has horror fans split right down the middle. Is this one a wish come true or a damn nightmare? Be careful what you wish for, kids because you ain’t never had a friend like this genie. ***Credit: Movie clip from Wishmaster***

“He was cleaved in ‘twain!” This week we take a look at the movie that gave us Jason as we know and love him now! This one ticks all the boxes! We got the cliche teen sacrifices, we have falling down in the woods, we have four endings before an actual ending, and a chick in a boat! Lest we forget the cheesy 80s 3D goodness. So step right up and get your ticket to the tropiest show on earth! Is it...

It is Craig’s pick this week (Meg claims no ownership to this decision) and he has picked the 1991 family horror comedy ‘Ernest Scared Stupid’! We take a look at the good (fantastic creatures), the bad (the title says it all), and the ugly (also the creatures). So, settle in for our chat about the Great Redneck Hope: Ernest!

This week, Meg chose the the OG giallo ‘Blood and Black Lace’. Mario Bava’s 1964 classic and the one that kicked off Italy’s longest running movie sub genre by one of the holy gialli trinity of directors. Meg found plenty of charm and redeeming qualities despite the weak plot (a hallmark of the genre). Craig... not so much.

This week we dive deep into the Zack Snyder remake of the George A. Romero’s classic ‘Dawn of the Dead’! Meg is not a zombie fan and Craig is all about it. And we declare once and for all whether fast zombies or slow zombies are scarier... and then there’s that zombie baby...

Hey, Slashers and Survivor Girls! This week Meg picked the 1979 Stephen King miniseries: 'Salem's Lot! What do you do with a vampire movie with virtually no vampires in it? Why, you watch for the plot of course! 'Salem's Lot is a fantastic study on suspense and tension building. Based on the Stephen King novel of the same name (and starring James Mason!) we take a look at a small town with teeth.&...

We take a look at the Wes Craven classic for our first episode! Is it the obvious choice? Yup, sure is! But let’s kick it off right. Watching with a critical eye, does this Nightmare hold up? Or does it fall apart at the seams with the slightest tug of the thread?

What’s up and welcome to the get-to-know-us episode of the Creepin’ it Reel Horrorcast with Craig and Meg!
