Skewered Universe Podcast

This week I got to sit down with my good buddy Chuck Nasty from the Video Store Clerks, Nasty Nation, & Graveyard Talk podcast and talk a little bit about his new splatterpunk novella "Thirsty?" and the gore filled sequel from Damien Leone.....Terrifier 2.  It's always a blast having Chuck on the show to talk about all things horror. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horrorp...

This week I had the pleasure of sitting down the always fabulous Patrick from the ScreamQueenz Podcast to talk about a little film called Death Drop Gorgeous.  It's full of humor, gore, drag queens throwing shade and, of course, Tragedi.  Join us as we talk about everything that made this little indie film so damn good. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #ho...

This week we take a break from nihilism and depression and get into something a little more fun.  Leiann and I finally sit down and watch the third feature film from Jordan Peele, 2022's NOPE.  We both have enjoyed Jordan Peele's output thus far and....well you'll have to listen to see what we thought about this film. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #horr...

This week is all about showing Leiann another film that she has not seen.  It's the 2008 French/Canada co production from 2008, Martyrs written and directed by Pascal Laugier.   Martyrs is a movie that I have been wanting to cover for quite some time and since Leiann had never seen it.... what better time than now.  We do spoil this movie so if you haven't seen it, you can watch it before or watch...

Following our super fun run of episodes covering the ANOES franchise, we decided to go with something a little different.  This episode I brought Leiann a film from 2017 she had not seen, Tigers Are Not Afraid directed by Issa Lopez.  I watched this one a while back with the Joe Bob commentary from Shudder's The Last Drive In and fell in love with the film, so I was very excited to show it to Leia...

The Skewered Universe ANOES Retrospective comes to a close as we get to the final film in the original franchise, Freddy vs Jason.  Not only do we cover the movie in our Interstellar Interstitial style, but we also have some feedback about some of our listeners and friend's experiences with the Nightmare franchise along with some audio feedback as well.  This series was a lot of fun to put togethe...

As the ANOES Retrospective draws closer to its end, Leiann and I sat down to talk about 1994s Wes Craven's New Nightmare which marked Cravens return to the franchise he birthed 10 years prior to this film's release.  Put on your favorite pjs, get your own Rex and find how well we did against a Freddy hell bent on blurring the lines between reality and his world. #skewereduniversepodcast #skeweredu...

Our next stop through the ANOES Retrospective takes us to what was supposed to be the last time we encountered everyone's favorite nightmare slasher.  I'm joined by my buddy Chuck Nasty to talk about Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare from 1991.  Did the movie that promised us that Freddy was in fact going to be killed off hold up?  Listen to find out. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #p...

The nightmare train keeps on rolling as Leiann, and I sit down for an Interstellar Interstitials review of A Nightmare on Elm St Part 5: The Dream Child.  This was a fun review, especially in our interstitial style as I got to experience the movie through Leiann's point of view since she remembered nothing about this one going into it.  You should definitely put down the comic books and give this...

We are back and moving right along through our ANOES Retrospective series.  This week we get pulled back into the nightmare with A Nightmare on Elm St Part 4: The Dream Master.  This is the movie where Freddy really started becoming a one liner machine before the kills.  What did Leiann and I think about it, you'll have to listen to find out. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #ho...

Our ANOES Retrospective continues along as we take on arguably the most fun and overall fan favorite film of the Nightmare franchise, 1987's A Nightmare on Elm St Part 3: Dream Warriors.  I called in a favor and Bryan Wolford of The Midnight Drive-In and Cage Dive podcasts came on to talk about all things Dream Warriors.   #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast...

We back with our second episode in our ANOES Retrospective, and we are talking about what has been considered the black sheep film in the ANOES franchise, 1985s A Nightmare on Elm St Part 2: Freddys Revenge.  We had a good time talking about this one and I believe we gave it the respect it deserves as a fun and well-acted horror film.  #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #h...

Leiann and I kick off our ANOES Retrospective series talking about the movie that started the nightmares and saved New Line Cinema from bankruptcy.  That's right it's the Wes Craven 1984 horror classic A Nightmare on Elm Street.  We talk about our experiences with this film, the Freddy Krueger character and discuss a few of the interesting behind the scenes details.  This was a lot of fun and we h...

After I burned myself out putting together an outline for this year's show lineup, Leiann and I are back just letting you know what we've been watching and just having a conversation about stuff.  Grab a cup of coffee, a beer, some wine, a bottle of whiskey, or even just a tall glass of water and join us. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #horrormovies #mov...

Everyone rejoice as Leiann is back on this episode along with our good friend Paul Steadman from Strange Highways and Invasion of the Podcast!  Since its First Watch February, we got to talk about a movie that all 3 of us had never seen....1980s Fade to Black.  We had a lot of fun on this episode, and I think Paul and I live mirror lives......just listen and you'll understand. #skewereduniversepod...

First Watch February, as we like to call it around here, started off great as I got to sit down with good friend of the show Tony Wash to talk about a fun and underseen movie from 1985 called Superstition.  We also talk about his recent trip to Atlanta for the Days of The Dead convention as well as all the stuff that he's been working on producing and curating for Screambox.  Tony and I also talke...

January is for Giallo comes to close and what better way to end this fun month than talking about Argento.  This time around I talk about 1987s Opera with my boy Chuck Nasty from The Nasty Nation/Graveyard Talk and Video Store Clerks podcasts.  We talk about Opera and just about anything else in the horror genre.  This was one hell of a way to close out our tribute to all things Giallo.    #skewer...

This week I once again fly solo during January is for Giallo and I set my sights on the 1971 Paolo Cavara directed The Black Belly of the Tarantula.   I have had a lot of fun watching these giallo films for this month and we still have one more episode that will be recorded on the last day of January, but you have to listen to find with what movie we are watching to close out this journey. #skewer...

This week we kick off January is for Giallo by taking a look at the 1982 Lucio Fulci directed The New York Ripper.  I was flying solo this episode, so I called an audible and did more of a classic review of the film along with talking a little bit about the giallo genre in general.  I had fun putting this together and I hope you guys enjoy listening. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #pod...

Happy New Year!  Leiann and I just sat down and had a rather loose episode where we talked about watching The Batman and had a couple of trivia games for each other.  Oh, we also drank and got a little buzzed during this episode.  We figured it would be a nice easy way to start the new year.   #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #horrormovies #movies #2023 #h...

This week Leiann and I sat down with a mug of hot cocoa and watched the Bob Clark directed holiday classic, Black Christmas.  Apologies for a couple of audio hiccups......we are working on getting that fixed.  Find out our thoughts on this film that influenced a lot of future slasher films. We wanted to get this episode out in time for Christmas, so you all have an extra present to open.   Make su...

Recorded at the end of November, we close out how only Skewered Universe can.......with an episode for NIC CAGE NOVEMBER!!  Leiann and I sat down and talked about some Scorpio actors, directors and musicians because I'm also a Scorpio and we are all pretty damn cool.  We also watched the 2021 film Pig.   Next episode is number 50 and we'll have something a little fun planned for it and its Decembe...

After a longer than anticipated but personally & medically necessary we are back.  Leiann and I go over what happened and why we had to step away from podcasting for a little while.  We basically wanted to give you guys a brief explanation and allow us to sort of refresh ourselves on the mics.  Rest assure we will be recording more regularly and bringing you some good stuff in the near future....

We are back! Leiann and I decided to watch an absolutely fun movie.......The Velocipastor.  Check out our thoughts as we watch during what we are calling our Interstellar Interstitials........that's the name for now folks. #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #horrormovies #movies Want to connect with Skewered Universe on social media?

This week Leiann and I got to sit down with friend of the show Tony Wash from Scotchworthy Productions to talk about some horror and discuss what he's currently working on.  We had a lot of fun reconnecting with Tony and talking about horror and his current projects.     #skewereduniversepodcast #skewereduniverse #podcast #horror #horrorpodcast #horrormovies #movies Want to connect with Skewered U...
