Living In Fear

It’s clear to see that we are obsessed with horror movies but did Obsession (2026) live up to the hype for us? We’re late to the party this time so it’s about time we finally saw this new film everyone’s been talking about. It's another film written and directed by a Youtuber and it has us wondering how many others get excited to hear that. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

Another A24 film and another film by a Youtuber so of course we had to see this one. Apparently, liminal spaces creep out Mia but not Luis, so does this movie work for both of us? We’ll get to that but first let’s catch up a little. We talk current books we’ve been reading and name which actor has a film catalogue we’d watch through in its entirety. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

We’re doing things a little bit differently this time and jumping right into our thoughts on Hokum (2026). Listen as we try to decipher what really happened and what was all nonsense (hokum). Podcast music by Scott Arc.

Sports! Yeah! We are totally not the people to talk about sports, but for whatever reason Mia was really excited to see HIM (2025). Maybe because there aren’t really any sports themed horror movies out there? And as for Luis, he was really excited to see Project Hail Mary so he’ll share some of his thoughts on it. And don’t worry, no spoilers for that one. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

Of course we couldn’t miss recording a podcast on a film about a podcast. We’re discussing Undertone (2026) this week. We went in not knowing anything about it, but how did it leave us feeling? You’ll have to listen to find out. And if the title makes you start singing Linkin Park, just know you are not alone. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

This week’s film, Under the Shadow (2016), is the first Persian film we’ve seen. This haunting film is one we highly recommend checking out for yourself. There’s a lot here to read into and we know we just scratched the surface of it all in our own discussion. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

No Me Sigas (2025) is the first Blumhouse produced movie made outside the US. We have some mixed views on Blumhouse films and this one really didn’t win us over. With social media being at the center of the plot we did find ourselves sharing some of our thoughts on social media and if it will be our downfall. Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

Desaparecer Por Completo (2022), translated as Disappear Completely is a horror film from Mexico. We really knew nothing about this one beforehand and recommend for others to go in blind too. Speaking of being blind, there’s a lot of discussion about being able to see in this episode, as Luis wears glasses and Mia is finally getting some! Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

We’ve got another film from a Youtuber. This time it’s Iron Lung (2026) from Markiplier. We skip a lot of the small talk this week to jump right into how we feel about Markiplier and ultimately this movie. Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

Return to Silent Hill (2026) seems to be flying under the radar. We had no idea it was coming out this week which usually doesn’t bode well for a movie. As people who love horror and games this feels like it should be made for us, right? Stick around and find out our “high level thoughts” on this one and how we feel about alternate endings, as Silent Hill 2 the game is known to have many alternate...

It’s officially 2026 and we’re back for our first movie of the year. January horror movies aren’t always known for being the best, but how did we feel about 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026)? It was definitely even wackier than the last one, we’ll say that much at least. Come hear what’s new with us in the new year and what we thought about today’s movie. Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

We’re back. Finally. This time we’re watching a Christmastime horror film, Krampus (2015). It’s been awhile so first we share some thoughts on games we’ve played recently and shows we’ve been watching. We really enjoyed getting to watch a horror film this holiday season and would love to add more from the horror genre to our Christmas movie list!

It’s finally here. Chris Stuckmann’s debut film, Shelby Oaks (2024). We’ve been gone a while (we went to Japan!) so we’re a little rusty, but we had to see this one in theaters. We’re excited his first film was in the horror genre so we could be here talking about it today. (Also, it’s the second film in a row with a main character named Mia.) Podcast music by Scott Arc.

With two of the characters being named Mia and Luis, how could we not watch The Taking of Deborah Logan (2014)? But seriously, can one of the characters turn on a light?! Unrelated to anything Luis talks fitness and how he likes to stay active and Mia is excited for all things Halloween! Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

Weapons (2025) is a film we’ve been looking forward to since we first saw the poster, but did it live up to our excitement? Also, why do we, and people in general, love horror films? And what’s the best type of film to watch with a group of friends? Podcast music by Scott Arc.

We’re going to spoil our thoughts for this film by saying, GO SEE IT! We loved Together (2025)! We started off by talking a little about tattoos and movies based on true stories we like, but we were both really excited to jump into sharing all of our thoughts about this film today. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

Life is full of choices and each choice has a consequence. The Ritual (2017) deals with life altering decisions and the impact they have on ourselves and others. Would we have done anything differently than these characters? For starters, would we even go on a backpacking trip in the forest? We have lots to discuss today. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

We’re back this week with The Platform (2019), also known as El Hoyo. This film touches on the class struggle: “Those at the top, those at the bottom, and those who fall.” Wealth is measured by food and a full belly in this prison. Would we eat just our fair share, and how long do we think we could comfortably go without eating? Podcast Music by Scott Arc.

Today we’ve got another found footage film, Incantation (2022). We also share some of our favorite villains which, let's be honest, they're kind of predictable. And we do our best to avoid spoilers as we discuss a few famous twists from movies we love. Podcast music by Scott Arc.

Ash, that was quite an interesting one we watched this week. Mia has her thoughts, and I have mine. Not a lot of positives overall, but we do our best to be respectful. At the end of the day, I (Luis) think I ended up liking it more than Mia, simply because my guilty pleasure has always been sci-fi slop, especially sci-fi horror. I don’t know. Flying Lotus, we see you, and I’m definitely intereste...

28 Years Later (2025) had a lot of surprises in store for us. It’s a new release that we have been looking forward to so we rushed out to the theater to see it. Speaking of movie theaters, is it weird to sit right next to other people in a theater full of empty seats? Mia went on a bit of a tangent about it because that’s exactly what happened at this viewing. Music by Scott Arc.

Before the next film in the franchise opens up in theaters we went back and rewatched 28 Weeks Later (2007). The common consensus seems to be that the first film is better, but there is still a lot to be said about this one and there’s a lot that we like about it. Thinking about this film, and zombie films in general, definitely makes us question what we would do in similar circumstances and how f...

We’ve both already seen this week’s film, 28 Days Later (2002), but were excited for a rewatch. We did a bit of research this time around so really felt there was a lot to discuss. With today’s questions we couldn’t help but think about how a dystopian/apocalyptic setting would affect us, would we want to endure it alone or look for others? And what daily comforts would we miss most?

The Severed Sun (2024) is the debut feature from Dean Puckett. It’s a low budget British horror film that Luis just happened upon, as it doesn’t seem to have any marketing behind its release. We enjoyed it for what it is and honestly will be on the lookout for other projects by this director because he seems to have a lot of potential. Music by Scott Arc.

Today we’re talking about the new release, Bring Her Back (2025). It’s from the same guys that made Talk to Me (2022). The Philippou brothers started out on YouTube so we share some of our favorite styles of videos we watch and some of our favorite YouTube channels. Luis has a hard time pinning down what a store bought item is and Mia embarrassingly mixes up Jamie Lee Curtis and Catherine O’Hara....
