Super Horror Bros

Of course the FrightFest thrills keep on coming. This week we are discussing a film we were actually in the same building when it was screened at last year’s festival but we were at a different screening for the incredible Freaks. Now, with a Arrow Video bluray to boot, we are finally getting round to watching this film we’ve wanted to check out since last year. Elsewhere this week; Eli Roth has s...

With our first cinema outing of 2020; we have returned to discuss the latest sequel/remake/reboot/ spiritual successor in the long running Grudge franchise. Yes that’s right. They made another Grudge. I’m surprised as you are. And we are here to give you our verdict on this; the latest Grudge film. Grudge. Also on the show; we are either getting massively trolled or we’re about to have a lot of fu...

This week sees us discuss a film that’s been in a lot of headlines over the past month having already secured some big wins on the awards circuit and looks to continue that momentum in the coming weeks. But the real recognition of course comes from the Super Horror Bros seal of approval. We are chatting Parasite and whether this Korean hit is worth your time whether you’re after a horror film or j...

Continuing the trend of films we’ve wanted to see for a while but couldn’t due to the fun world of UK delayed releases we are back to discuss Villains. Starring two of the genre’s best newcomers of recent years; we were very excited to see them both in this interesting looking indie comedy/horror hybrid. Check out our verdict on whether you should seek out this film which hasn't had the widest rel...

We kick 2020 off with a bang as we are back to discuss a film we sadly couldn't catch last year but made it our first call of action in the new year. The Lighthouse has been on our radar for a very long time and after hearing great things we can’t wait to finally check it out. Will it live up to the hype? Let’s find out. Elsewhere this week we have Mike’s upcoming horror films list to close out th...

This is it. It has all lead to this. After over 50 shows in 2019 and many, many horror films; we are here to give you our definitive pick of the best of 2019. We have compiled the official SHB Top 10 horror films of 2019 list and go over each one with our reasons for why we loved these films so much. Next up is our annual award giving out time where we highlight some more specific moments of the g...

Before we sit down to discuss the best films of the year next week we are back with our last regular show of 2019. Returning to the cinema one last time is the remake of the remake of Black Christmas. We’re always down for some fun seasonal horror so let’s see if this film delivered on its easily executable premise that’s already been done twice to a good degree. Elsewhere this week; there continu...

With our second show of the week and continuing to get through our backlog of films before the end of 2019; we are discussing the first lead acting role of one of our favourite wrestlers. But will those talents translate to horror? We shall see. In the news we discuss the rather strange title of the next Conjuring and debate how much Elvis Presley will Patrick Wilson sing. (Hopefully a lot.) And e...

On the first show of a double bill this week we are back to discuss, you guessed it, yet another FrightFest film. This was one that we really wanted to see at the festival but couldn’t due to scheduling so we’re happy to finally sit down and discuss this new slasher throwback that was picked up by Shudder recently. Elsewhere this week; the Train to Busan sequel gets some new details and we cannot...

As we continue to fill the final weeks of the year; we are back with yet another FrightFest 2019 film to discuss. Bliss was actually on the main screen when we decided to watch Freaks instead and that ended up being our favourite film of the festival. But did we also miss out on another new horror gem? Hear our verdict on this very trippy horror gem to find out. Also this week we debate whether Mi...

We are back again this week to discuss yet another new release that has grabbed our attention. Little Monsters looks to fuse horror and comedy and with an interesting cast attached; we had high hopes this could be a film that hopefully rivalled the great films of this sub genre such as Shaun of the Dead. Hear our verdict now on if this film is worth your time as the weeks in 2019 quickly disappear...

As we slowly approach the end of the year we are continuing to bring you as many reviews of horror’s biggest and most noteworthy releases of the year. Continuing that trend is this week’s film called The Nightingale. The follow up from director Jennifer Kent after her indie darling debut The Babadook. A long period piece usually isn’t our cup of tea but can the violent nature of this film make it...

Keeping us busy in the slow winter weeks is yet another FrightFest featured film that also boosts the Fangoria name as part of the production. Satanic Panic is a pizza delivery gone to hell and really shows just how far some people are willing to go to get a tip. We give our thoughts on this wacky laugh filled horror and whether it's something you need to put on your radar if you haven’t already c...

The moment of truth has arrived. 2019 has been a monumental year for horror and we are back to discuss maybe the last huge genre release of this landmark year for horror. We have been waiting a while for this one and we are extremely excited to finally be talking about not just the latest Stephen King adaptation but the new Mike Flanagan film. With a dream cast and a story that one of us already l...

The FrightFest treats continue to keep us occupied this month as we are back to discuss perhaps the marque film from this year's festival.

Also starring one of our favourite actors; we were very excited to see if this film can continue the mostly fantastic trend of recent adaptations...

We are back with another show this week which is something of a Shudder special. First up we discuss a sequel in a franchise that we’ve very much enjoyed in recent years, which is the 3rd installment in the Hell House LLC series. Can they deliver the scares once more or will this be a step too far? Next, we finally discuss a film that has received many awards and plaudits on the festival circuit c...

October is so jam-packed with releases that we decided to bring you a double bill episode this week. We kick things off with Ready or Not which after getting shown at this year’s FrightFest finally gets a wider UK release. After getting pretty good buzz overseas we were excited to check out this 18 rated film which is rather strangely released by Disney. After that we take a moment to discuss some...

A very special show for you guys this week. Instead of discussing a new film this week we are keeping the hype train going as we are welcomed by a very special guest in the form of the one and only Richard Brake. Perhaps the most discussed actor on this show; we finally sit down with the man himself and discuss everything from 3 From Hell, Doom-Head and even Slash the guitarist. It was great to fi...

To beat the post FrightFest blues we are back with a little film that just so happens to be the follow up to our number one film of 2017. IT: Chapter Two is finally here and to say we’re excited certainly is an understatement. We dive into everything about this sequel such as how it compares to the previous film, differences from the book, crazy horror setpieces and one of the finest casts in the...

Films Covered: Freaks, Bullets of Justice, A Serial Killer’s Guide to Life Sadly we have arrived at our final part of FrightFest coverage for another year.
