Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death

Well we did it, we watched Halloween Resurrection and do we have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this movie. What are those thoughts? What about those feelings? You'll have to listen to find out. So sit back, relax, and trick or treat mother fuckers. 

Another week another Halloween film. However, this week Cyndi and Josh bring you one that they agree is both short and pretty good. That's right we watched Halloween H20, Jamie Lee Curtis's return to the role and franchise that made her famous. Did we like it? Were we annoyed by Josh Hartnett's haircut? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week to find out. 

So for October we decided to continue our watch of the Halloween films from a few years ago. We did Halloween (1978), Halloween 2, Halloween 4, and Halloween 5 a couple of years ago for October (with Halloween 3 coming years ago when we did witch movies). So we are starting out this month with the next film up - Halloween 6 aka Halloween 666 aka Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. We watched th...

Well we did it we finally finished our extended series of movies about identity. What started as an idea for Josh's birthday month has led to us covering some pretty incredible movies and today we are ending our series with Zach Cregger's Weapons. Now if you're a long time listener you'll know we previously did Barbarian and it scared the hell out of Cyndi. Did Weapons do the same? Did we like it?...

Well we finally watched and talked about Josh's birthday movie the Japanese classic Cure from 1997. This dread inducing film is part Se7en, part David Lynch and the stuff of nightmares. However, did Cyndi like it? Did Josh find a theme of the dissolution of modern society in the movie? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week and watch what Josh lovingly believes is his second favorite horro...

Ladies and gentleman sometimes you see a horror film and it's filled with complete unknowns or people making their first film. Sometimes it's a cast of up and coming actors fresh off that television show or playing the second lead in larger movies. Well, sometimes it's just a cast of certified height of their game. Which is what we have this week with The River Wild. A whitewater rafting thriller...

Well our month of vacations gone wrong has landed us in the car with Steve Zahn, Leelee Sobieski, and Paul Walker as they flee from a murderous trucker who is just a voice on the radio and seemingly everywhere at once.

Hello and welcome to July. Well we finally did it, we watched the 1980's Friday the 13th.

Sorry for the irregular posting of episodes. This has been a crazy summer for both of us here at Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death. We hope to get back on track next month as we continue a Summer of horror with a month of how I spent my summer horror movies.    In the meantime enjoy our episode on Sleepaway Camp and Cyndi's genuine surprise at the ending. 

Hello, we are so back with a belated month of summer camp horror movies. We are going to kick this shindig off with a holdover from last month's movies about moms with The Final Girls. A little movie with a lot of heart and some incredible jokes. Join us as we venture off to the Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death summer camp.

We continue our month of mother's day movies with a horror mom that's more cautionary than some of our previously celebrated moms. We watched and finally got to record our episode for Lights Out. If you're a long time listener you know anything that as regular and well crafted jump scares really scares Cyndi. However was it enough to kill her? You'll have to listen to find out and join us next wee...

Did you watch Panic Room and think I loved this but I wish it were a tonal roller coaster that's both funny and scary? Well then you're in luck because we watched Housebound. A movie that scared Cyndi more than Panic Room by a country mile. Did we like it? Where we entertained? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

We begin our month of celebrating moms with a New York City Brownstone, a hidden fortune, a corn rowed Jared Leto, a sympathetic Forest Whitaker, a psychopathic Dwight Yoakum, a young Kristen Stewart, a protective motherly Jodie Foster, a meticulous director in David Fincher, and it all centers on a Panic Room. That's right we watched the 2002 David Fincher Panic Room join us if you dare. 

We ended the month with a serial killer film that feels a little like Zodiac by way of True Detective Season 1.

Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

We watched The Secret in their Eyes. Not the American remake with Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman. The original 2009 film from Argentina and all we can say is wow.

Join us to find out and enjoy this incredible...

We are back and we figured what better day to drop our Shin Godzilla episode. The day the first teaser for Godzilla Minus Zero was released. Well we did it. We watched another Godzilla movie. This movie is part allegory and part Godzilla movie by way of David Cronenberg. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. 

As things in Appalachia (and all of America) get harder and harder to navigate, your favorite podcast-couple-who break-down-horror-movies-thematically-by-month are taking a break from making episodes. We'll be back in April. Until then... Mind the doors. 

Back to back Chan Wook Park films on the Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death timeline. To go from Thirst to Decision to Leave is notable in the way the films overlap and are at odds with one another. There are no monsters or vampires in this film. There are no sex scenes at least not in the same respect as Thirst. However, this film has twists, turns, longing for someone you can't or shouldn't be w...

Well as we come to the end of our month of Valentine's horror we watched Thirst. That's right a South Korean vampire, romance film from the director of Oldboy. Did we like it? Was Cyndi grossed out? Did it scare her to death? Join us this week to find out.

Well after the incredible mullet in...
