Fearless Films

Send us Fan Mail This week, we take you back to the things that haunted you as a child: shadows that look a bit too much like people, bumps under the bed, and closets that act as portals through space and time! No, it's not a sci-fi film. Its 2005's Boogeyman! This Sam Raimi produced film stars the oldest son from 7th Heaven as a man who has been terrorized since childhood by an evil ent...

Send us Fan Mail We had such a fun time talking about cave diving and flesh eating monsters, we decided to do it again!! Join us again as Sarah breaks down The Descent 2, which sees our only surviving character from the first movie being forced by authorities to return to the cave system to find the people they believe she murdered. Pete is incredulous, but he comes along for the ride if only to s...

Send us Fan Mail A group of women go cave diving and find something waiting for them in the dark... Join us as Sarah breaks down Hollywood's best reason to never explore nature ever put to film.

Pete wants none of the crawling through 18 inch wide tunnels, and would rather fast forward to peop...

Send us Fan Mail It is only a matter of time before all franchises end up in outer space, but some get there sooner than others.

Send us Fan Mail Critics will call it a crime-drama, but we know the truth: Seven is straight up horror! Join us as Sarah discusses one of the darkest serial killer stories in cinema. Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt must stop a madman with a love of Bible stories. Kevin Spacey stretches his acting ability by being a complete piece of shit. And Pete tries to keep his lunch down as Sarah describes all...

Send us Fan Mail Happy Valentine's Day! This year's entry is a little known film about a woman being hunted by the most inept serial killer of all time throughout a hospital that is madder than a hatter. That film also has about four different titles, depending on where you see it. We settled on Hospital Massacre, but it is also commonly titled X-Ray in a lot of regions. This movie featu...

Send us Fan Mail What happens when you mix a stranger-danger PSA with a Sam Raimi-esque aesthetic? You get Barbarian! Join Sarah and Pete (and a special guest) as they talk about the 2022 film they saw together at the theater, which left them repeating "WTF" all the way home.

Send us Fan Mail Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Seasons G...Garbage Day!? This holiday season, Pete and Sarah discuss the movie that started the meme heard round the world: Silent Night, Deadly Night 2! What started as a money making scheme to just re-edit footage from the first movie into a "sequel" became something so much more. Well, it was definitely that first thing, but it also s...

Send us Fan Mail It had to happen sooner or later... Ventriloquist Dummies!!! That's right, its the 2007 film "Dead Silence", which just so happens to be one of Sarah's favorites. And one of Pete's least favorite. A Wan/Whanell classic about a ghost woman seeking revenge via her treasured dummies and a curse that punishes you for screaming. Tune in as they discuss dummies,...

Send us Fan Mail Kevin here - When I started doing this podcast with Pete 3 years ago, I had thought that I would be talking with my friend about the intricate, diabolical and twisted imagining of horror story crafters. Learning riveting and terrifying secrets about the stories told throughout the years that I was always too scared to learn about. After listening to over 150 different horror movie...

Send us Fan Mail What happens when a movie studio decides to adapt a popular zombie horror video game into a movie? Nothing good! Join the guys as they break down 2002's Resident Evil.

Send us Fan Mail Corn comes in all varieties: Pop corn. Corn on the cob. Canned corn. Sacrificial corn. What happens when a town’s children decide to rise up and destroy all the adults? Things go surprisingly well for them, despite having no commerce, infrastructure, or any clear goals.

Send us Fan Mail Kevin's notes just say LIES LIES LIES in all caps... Pete's notes, on the other hand, say we have a very special treat this week. In the late 80's, the producers of the Friday the 13th films decided they wanted more, so they made a TV series based around their slasher property. Except it wasn't a slasher, it was a "mystery of the week" horror show. An...

Send us Fan Mail The Babysitter is back.... kind of. Samara Weaving returns as the deadly babysitter Bee, but only for about 8 minutes, because she got super famous between movies. The rest of the first movie's cast returns as well, mostly to fill the gap from the stars' absence. Will the young boy Cole be able to fight off the forces of evil again?? Yes. He will.

Send us Fan Mail It is so hard to find good help these days. Babysitter's can be expensive, or inexperienced, or servants of the Dark Lord who want to sacrifice your children to Hell. Damn inflation. Join us as Pete talks Kevin through the Netflix horror-comedy, The Babysitter, and see in real-time as Kevin loses all faith in ever leaving his children in the care of others again.
