The Graveyard Shift Horror Podcast

Thanks to our "friend" Eric, this week we watched Holidays (2016). As you can tell from the Dad joke that is the title of this episode, we weren't impressed. From Mind reading VR headsets to bestiality babies to something that can only be described as the Jesus bunny, Holidays is a compilation of 8 short films that are one WTF after another. Enjoy our pain. You can check out all the content on Hey...

This episode is so serious it comes with a PSA. We watched It Follows (2014). A story about a sexually transmitted curse that kills anyone that doesn't pass it on. Remember kids, if you have sex, you'll die... Unless you have more sex... We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months.

Puppets & psychics. If these are the things you want in a horror movie then Puppet Master (1989) may be the one for you. (But if you feel like us, maybe not). We learn that the puppets weren't the most wooden characters in this movie and we hear about some early concept designs. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If you would like to...

We both needed a break from the cold harshness of winter so we decided to watch The Thing From Another World (1951). A movie about a group of scientists and military members that find an alien frozen under the ice in the cold harshness of the Arctic... Probably not that best choice... brrr... But it is one of the best sci-fi horror movies of the 50's and went on to be remade by John Carpenter into...

2017 is dead and gone. We lay to rest our first year of working the graveyard shift with the best and worst horror movies of the past 12 months, the most anticipated horror movie of 2018, and we answer all those questions from our horror head listeners. Now grab a shovel and help us bury this thing. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If y...

We celebrate the last day of the first Christmassacre with an iconic holiday horror. The granddaddy of them all, Black Christmas (1974) starring Margot Kidder and a terrifying moustached cop, and some great kills, one spoiled by the poster itself. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If you would like to make continued support to help keep...

Robin returns to help us with our third entry in our Christmassacre series when we cover Krampus (2015). We discuss the movie, the history of Krampus, and we give Robin the details about our own encounter with the dark shadow of Santa. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If you would like to make continued support to help keep the show goi...

We have more company from the Playing With Power Podcast as we are joined by another of Mike's Co-hosts, the infamous John. The three of us watch another Holiday Horror flick, Better Watch Out (2017). We find out just how creepy kids can be, What would really happen if you got someone with a certain Home Alone trap, and all three of us get taken by a major plot twist. You can find out more about t...

We are joined by Ben from the Playing With Power Podcast who gives us a brief history of how the Nintendo Power retrospective show started and we take on the Holiday Horror Anthology, A Christmas Horror Story (2015). If you want to see a movie that involves baby mama ghosts, shape shifting brats, a Krampus rampage, and Santa fighting through his zombified elves then this is the movie for you. Also...

We get back to basics this week when we watch a fan pick, House Of Wax (2005). We check out some potential new studio spaces, discuss what worked and didn't work in this remake, talk about why a literal house of wax would be a terrible idea, and contemplate whether or not certain scenes involving Paris Hilton were intentionally made to remind us of another time she was on film. We are hosted at Ca...

We experienced the ultimate Homeowners nightmare this week when we watched the Tobe Hooper directed (sort of) haunted house flick, Poltergeist (1982). We are joined by our friend Eric from the Youtube channel Hey Internet, Eric Here. The three of us discover why you should research what used to be on the land your house occupies before you buy it, What really was happening on the set of the movie,...

We've got an episode that will grab you by the Twinkies because this week we watched Zombieland (2009) We are joined by our friend Ivan for this horror comedy about enjoying the little things in life while running for your life at the same time. We learn that you can find love in the zombpocalypse, Twinkies do expire, and Bill Murray's zombie survival technique may have a downside. We are hosted a...

Find a secure, air tight building, fluff up that hair, push play, and listen to our coverage of Night Of The Comet (1984). Zombies, evil scientists, and music montages are already pretty rad but we've made it even more so because we are joined by the hilarious Kyle Clark from the This Is Rad Podcast and a whole lot of other geeky goodness. Join us to find out why this largely overlooked 80's horro...

Our very first Halloween Special Episode! We are joined by our friends Robin and Rick to chat about some of our must watch Halloween movies, TV specials, and anything else we love to do on or that reminds us of the big day and we also read some messages from our beautiful listeners about the same things. But wait, there's more! As if all of that wasn't enough, we have an original poem written and...

It all comes to an end. The final movie in our Halloween That's Not Halloween series is the aptly titled but extremely awful Hallow's End (2003). The movie that has a premise that sounds like a good idea but then you watch it and realize it isn't. Just go to a haunted attraction and don't watch a movie about one. If you like Hallmark made for TV movies but wondered what they would be like with dol...

Now it feels more like Halloween because we watched Trick 'r Treat (2007), a movie that actually looks like Halloween. We were impressed with this very well done anthology. We learned on Halloween to not put away the Jack-o-Lanterns too early, stay away from cute college girls, what goes around comes around, and basically don't be a jerk. Also, for the first time on the show, Sheldon can't find so...

ARE YOU READY TO ROCK?! Because we continue our "Halloween That's Not Halloween" movie series with the second film on the list, Trick Or Treat (1986). It brought back lots of memories of the "Satanic Panic" of the 80's and are the craziness it caused. We get a taste of some of the music that made us all want to headbang, we see Ozzy Osbourne and Gene Simmons prove that they should stick to music,...

We kick off October with the first movie in our Halloween series, Trick Or Treats (1982). We learn how not to commit someone to an asylum, that some people have no idea how anything works, and that a movie can have a $55k budget and somehow still look like they overspent. All that plus we announce the winner of our very first giveaway! Happy October indeed. We are hosted at Captivate where you can...

Our thoughts on the New film (spoiler free) and how it fairs compared to the 1990 TV movie. Also, find out how you can enter our Pennywise Funko Pop Free giveaway. (Update, it has been claimed.)

We are back like a reanimated corpse for the rest of our coverage of the Lucio Fulci classic, Zombie (1979). More of what we liked about this movie and somethings we didn't. The banter continues with musician/composer Robert Christopher plus we announce our plans for the Halloween Season! We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If you would li...

Practice those head-shots because this week we tackle the Lucio Fulci classic, Zombie (1979). If you ever wondered who wins in a fight between a zombie and a shark, well... Actually you still won't really know after watching this... But its its a cool scene anyway. We are joined by muscian/composer Robert Christopher and we go off the rails more times then a lopsided freight train. An episode so b...

Grab your blue suede shoes and your dentures because this week we watched Bruce Campbell play an elderly Elvis and fight an ancient evil mummy in Bubba Ho-tep (2002). We had lots to say about this wacky geriatric horror and its made even better because we are joined by our good friend and B-movie connoisseur, Robin. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and t...

This week we take a stab at the "So bad its good" section when we watch Truth Or Dare: Critical Madness (1986).

This week we clown around with the original 1990 Stephen king TV movie "IT". We talk about how clowns don't have to be child eating demons to be creepy, we reveal our new upcoming giveaway, and The Graveyard Shift gets a new sponsor. Additional music provided by Derek & Brandon Fiechter at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjMZjGhrFq_4llVS_x2XJ_w Additional voices provided by Sheldon's lovely...

We try to put our shattered minds back together after watching this week's fan picked movie, Pieces (1982). We learn that sneaking around with a chainsaw is easier than you think, never trust a plan that involves you being serial killer bait, and guys in the 80's had a very different college experience than we did. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and th...
