Super Horror Bros

Now for something completely different. For our own sanity we have decided to not watch a horror film this week but instead treat ourselves to a fun side quest and discuss the latest Christopher Nolan film to grace the big screen. Oppenheimer is a truly one of a kind film and hopefully you enjoy us chatting about something completely different to our usual grind which will continue next week. Else...

Well this certainly wasn’t on our bingo card for 2023. A Spanish language spin off of Bird Box released 5 years after the last film. What a strange but actually very cool concept which is an interesting way to flesh out a world and setting. We dissect whether this sequel can deliver and also how much of Bird Box we actually remember at this point (very little). Elsewhere this week; FrightFest make...

The cinema can give us some unbelievable highs when it comes to horror but it can also give us some of the most uninspired trash. Here’s hoping the 5th Insidious film can break the trend of the recent sequels and deliver a worthy successor to the original film. With a super interesting premise and returning cast members there is definitely a big reason why this film got made and we break down exac...

After a fun side affair talking about Black Mirror the last couple of weeks we are back to our bread and butter. Discussing brand new horror films. And boy is the horror landscape quiet right now. We discuss why that is and also discuss a film called Malum which we didn't even know existed this time last week. Ending the show Matt had finished reading The Scarlet Gospels and explains why every hel...

Continuing from last week we are talking all about the magnificent return of Black Mirror. And this turned out to be a lot more horror focused than we expected. We have 3 episodes left to discuss and there sure is alot to get into. This season has completely broken the mould of what even is a Black Mirror episode anymore whilst still bringing the classic morality and ethics with a technology spin...

The best sci-fi show on TV is back. After 4 years away we cannot wait to see what the latest season of this incredible show has to offer and we are sure gonna savour it. First up is Joan is Awful; where a normal woman suddenly gets a Netflix adaptation of her life and the perils that ensue. And then Loch Henry; which tackles the ethics and realities of the current world of true crime documentary a...

Cinema horror is finally back, baby! But it’s with a haunting type film which we don't typically vibe with. But it is a Stephen King story and has some writers and a director we’ve enjoyed films from in the past so hopefully this will be more The Conjuring 2 than say 30 other nondescript films of this sub genre. Elsewhere this week; Black Mirror has a date and we’ll be discussing it very soon. Art...

350 episodes is a crazy landmark to hit and we are thankful people still enjoy this show after doing it for so long. We reminisce and look back briefly on the last 7 years then it’s straight to business with this week’s film. Influencer literally just came out this past weekend on Shudder and so we decided to take a chance knowing almost nothing about it. Did it pay off? Let’s find out. Elsewhere...

One of our most anticipated entries in this Ranking Wes Craven retrospective since we started it years ago is finally here. Red Eye was a seminal film for us like so much of Wes’ filmography and we’ve been dying to talk about this tight thriller for quite some time. Now it has its time to shine and with the recent 4K release the timing couldn't have been any better. Perhaps the most underrated fil...

Somewhat gone under the radar from back in January was the return of Kevin Williamson to not only the horror genre but the slasher world. So we need to rectify this mistake. Sick is the latest film to use Covid as the backdrop which is quickly becoming an overused concept but hopefully the other slasher elements are strong enough to make this film a great time. Elsewhere this week; Beetlejuice 2 i...

After we were both struck down in our prime a few weeks ago and couldn’t make it to the cinema we were anxiously waiting for this film to drop on demand. Now Renfield has arrived on the small screen and we can finally see Nic Cage playing Dracula like our little hearts desired. I guess this film has some other stuff in it also? Elsewhere this week; Mike Flanagan is finally returning to film and we...

After the joys of big cinema horror last week we are now immediately dropped back down to earth in search of digital horror releases to discuss. However this week’s film boasts some of the best reviews of a horror film all year and being huge found footage fans; here’s hoping The Outwaters can live up to the hype. Elsewhere this week; Black Mirror is finally returning after a 4 year hiatus and we...

After a short hiatus last week we are back with another massive horror release from 2023 to discuss. Evil Dead has been sensational in all forms whether it’s the camp craziness of Bruce Campbell in the original trilogy and TV to Fede Alvarez’s modern classic. So this latest franchise instalment has a lot to live up to. Evil Dead Rise sees many dramatic shifts to the formula. Is this one more recen...

Before we return to the cinema once again now is the perfect time to go back to our favourite horror directors back catalogue as we continue our quest to rank each and every Wes Craven horror film. And boy do we have a doozy here. Cursed has one of the most troubled and unfortunate productions of any Craven film; but is the final product still worth a watch? We dissect this Werewolf tale and then...

You might have thought this day would never come but here we are covering a Winnie the Pooh film for this horror podcast. If you somehow missed this film after it gained quite a lot of media attention last year we go over just how this film exists first of all and then go about actually receiving it. It’s as insane as it sounds. Elsewhere this week; Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving comes out later this yea...

Screen life is one of our favourite sub genres to watch in recent years and Searching was one of the best thrillers so far within that sun genre. Missing is now the spiritual successor and continues to up the ante and bring all the tricks of new tech to the table in this rollercoaster of a film filled to the brim with twists and turns. Elsewhere this week; Rob Zombie has recorded a new commentary...

The cinema is keeping up very busy and this week is the big budget sci-fi return of the creators behind A Quiet Place and the super underrated Haunt. 65 has a great premise that was sadly spoiled in the marketing but still has some tricks up its sleeve. Can these guys make another banger or is this one their first miss? Let’s find out. Elsewhere this week; Jordan Peele’s 4th film gets a date and w...

We may never get to do a show like this again so prepare yourselves for what is about to happen. This week we have two extremely important things to talk about. First up is the return of our most beloved horror franchise in the form of Scream VI. After a great addition to the franchise last year, can they top it with a bold looking sequel that promises new rules for this glorious franchise. We hav...

Cocaine Bear just might be the most simple premise for a film we see all year. But sometimes in a simple package can be an incredibly multi-layered and nuanced film about all kinds of serious messages and topics. Other times it's just about a bear doing some coke and going crazy. Let’s find out which one this film falls under. Elsewhere this week; Mike Flanagan continues to want to make a new A Ni...

The end of Ranking Wes Craven is fast approaching now but we have still found a film that neither of us have ever seen before. Vampire in Brooklyn holds a weird spot in Wes Craven’s filmography as he made it in between his last contribution to the Nightmare franchise and his first with Scream. Panned at release but somewhat of a cult classic these days; just what did we make of this Eddie Murphy v...

A very exciting film arrived on digital services last week that we just couldn't wait to see on the big screen next month so here we are discussing Brandon Cronenberg’s follow up to the outstanding Possessor. Infinity Pool stars the winners of our two acting categories from last year, a returning director we are big fans of and a premise of more melding of sci-fi and horror. Hype levels could not...

FrightFest continues to provide new horror films to us not just in August but all throughout the year. We sadly just missed seeing Candy Land at last year’s festival but made sure to make note of it and check it out when it was available so here we are. Following a group of truck stop sex workers after multiple dead bodies start appearing; this indie film has quite a lot to get stuck into. Elsewhe...

The return of M. Night Shyamalan is upon us. This man has had quite the career resurgence in recent years and we have really benefited from it for the show. He has already had 3 top 10 films for us and now comes his next project with a fascinating trailer behind it. Can he deliver yet again? We have a lot to discuss with this one. Elsewhere this week; I Know What You Did Last Summer is seemingly g...

This is a very special podcast. We really hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it. Our main event is Unwelcome; a brand new British horror film we got to finally see on the big screen after many delays. It contains laughs, drama, emotion and great creature effects. Hopefully this one makes a splash with horror fans. Then we of course talk about episode 3 of The Last of Us and g...

The first on demand new horror film of 2023 sees two couples holidaying together when their kids start acting very weird. Are they just weird kids or are they actually some sort of devil in disguise? We get to the bottom of this and many more issues in this week's film. Also this week; Scream VI gets a proper first trailer that teases a very different Scream and Ghostface. Violent Night seems to b...
