Nothing to Fear

This podcast contains spoilers for the movie we watch. And, let's be honest. Pretty much any other form of media and genre there is.  Listeners, grab your red jumpsuits, strappy sandals, big ole golden scissors and a single leather driving glove because we watched Us. Join us as we dive into metaphor upon metaphor and see just how strong those sky hooks are for us to suspend our disbelief on....

This podcast contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing. Take a trip back to those heady days right before the New Millennium as we visit the small fishing village of North Shore South Carolina. Or was it South Shore North Carolina? Who knows. Certainly not us. What we do know is that we watched I Know What You Did Last Summer and we had a great fun time talking about the stars, the plot an...

This Podcast contains spoilers for the movie we are talking about. Luke picked this movie this week simply because he wants to do the third instalment one day so we dive into 2007's creepy found footage offering 'Paranormal Activity'. Having actually seen this movie before, Billie goes in very scared and comes out scared but also angry. And surprised. Well done movie. You'll also hear Billie strug...

For our first birthday, what better place to go than to a Swedish Midsummer festival....

This episode contains spoilers for the movie we're talking about (and....Anna Karenina weirdly...you've been warned) The NtF crew was on their way back from a deep space mining expedition when we were awoken from our hibernation when we picked up a signal repeating every twelve seconds. That turned out to be the latest episode of Nothing to Fear. We're talkin all about an absolute classic of the h...

This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are talking about.  Join us, Feardos, as we head back to 1968 to talk about the Grandpappy of all zombie movies with George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead. How many comparisons to early technology can Alex make? Will there be any Star Wars references? Will Alex's cat, Miroki, make an appearance (yes for sure). For all the answers to these...

Take a trip back to that wild wild era of the 1990s with us as we talk about the first movie in the Scream franchise. When Scream came out it was lauded as a brilliant parody of the horror films of the 70s and 80s while also being a compelling mystery in and of itself. So get your halter top jersey, feather the HELL out of those bangs and join us as we dive into a formative film for any 90s kid. B...

This podcast contains SPOILERS and also a big Trigger warning. There is a large section of this movie that deals with gender presentation and the idea of a man in a dress as a serial killer and we talk about it. It’s a good conversation but it’s understandable if any of the trans and gender diverse part of the audience would like to skip it. Check the time codes and check in with yourself. We love...

This Podcast contains spoilers. Have we been doing this show for 50 episodes or 2? No way to know but that won't stop us from talking about Robert Eggers' 2019 film, The Lighthouse.

This podcast contains spoilers! And this is a 2020 film so consider your self warned. Don't worry. Nothing was stolen from an Apeth in order to record this episode. So we're all good on that front. This is an interesting one for us here at NtF. Billed as a horror movie, we ask and try to answer the question, "Did this story NEED to be a horror movie?" You'll have to listen to find out. This movie...

Disclaimer: Hi, Billie here. There is a bit of funky sound things in this episode. For some reason Luke's mic kept dropping his volume throughout the recording. I tried my best to correct it as much as I could but it may be a bit funky! Thank you, listeners! This podcast contains spoilers for the 1990 movie Tremors! Join Billie, Alex and Luke as we discuss this very campy, very silly movie about t...

Just a head's up here, folks. This movie is real gory and over the top and...

This episode contains spoilers. SERIOUSLY. This movie came out in 2020 and we spoil a lot of it so make sure you watch this movie before you listen if you don't want to have the plot spoiled.  As if the Pandemic wasn't tough enough, what happens if a bunch of your friends do a Zoom seance and then summon a demon? Sounds like a bit more risky than that lawyer who got the cat filter stuck on hi...

This episode contains spoilers! Take a trip back into the realm of your high school days. Asking people to buy booze for you and trying to find a place to drink.

This Podcast Contains Spoilers for the movie we are discussing. The NtF crew is diving back into the spooky scary haunted realms this week as we discuss 2013's The Conjuring. Patrick Wilson returns as a guy who's name Billie can't remember and we must have completed some sort of ritual because Luke's landlord was conjured during the recording leaving Alex and Billie to their own devices.  Lis...

This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are about to discuss. It may strike you as odd but if someone knocks on your door at four in the morning asking for someone who doesn't live there, I think it would be just fine to pretend you weren't home. And maybe call someone at that point. But then we wouldn't have 2008's The Strangers. Billie and the Boys discuss this movie, talk about the unex...

This Episode Contains Spoilers! It's our 40th episode! We're so excited to get into the movie. We're talking about 2017s Pyewacket today.

If you would like to support the show you can search us up on Teepublic or Society6 and pick up some funky, unique merchandise. You can also use our sponsor link at unclockable.com for $2 of...

This Podcast Contains Spoilers (sort of.) Seems like we've been stuck in a real 1980s rut for most of 2021 so far. Maybe it's because the world is a bit scary these days and we seek to retreat to a more nostalgic time. A time when a doll could be possessed by the soul of a serial killer and no one asked why even once. We watched Child's Play and got to meet that loveable(?) scamp that is Chucky th...

This Podcast Contains Spoilers! This week we are talking about 1981's My Bloody Valentine. Canadian Film, Holiday themed horror movie, late 70s/ early 80s? Sounds a lot like Black Christmas. Maybe some day we'll do an Easter horror movie. Please check the time codes for information on this week's episode including additional spoilers if you wish to skip ahead. Time Codes 00:00:23 Show Starts 00:10...

This Podcast contains Spoilers. Come on down to the wide, open spaces of rural Nebraska this week. The NtF squad is heading to a small town called Gatlin to interview this new religion run by, of all things, children. It should be fine though. Kids are pretty friendly towards Outlanders right?  Friends, it should be noted that this movie is NOT The Village of the Damned like Billie AND Luke t...
