This month we study Murder for Dummies, as we take on the offerings of horror that animate the inanimate. This month begins with The Boy, that classic from 2016 that cant even crack 30% on Rotten Tomatoes. One of us feels this is a little undue. see who loves it and who isn't that impressed, in this weeks episode. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and the...

We finish the Summer of Surf, Sand, and Schlock, with Blood Surf that features unlikable people in a stupid situation doing dumb things. but enough about Mike and John, lets talk about this weeks film.

We started this podcast as mere babes but now we’re so old.

John and Liz meet for the first time to discuss The Beach Girls and The Monster (1965) where the beach girls don’t factor in at all. Luckily they get along like sand on a hot dog to deliver choice comedic commentary on this move that didn’t even TRY to be political commentary. Or anything of any sense at all. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme mo...

Liz is back and so is Gio from the Gio Show podcast, to celebrate Surf Sand and Schlock with Nightmare Beach. Boy this movie is bad but its what we’re here for. so enjoy our trauma as we endure a movie with varied gory kills and boobs that manages to be dull anyway.

John (Mr Socko on Twitch) is back to talk some lovely horror shop for the first entry in the Summer of Surf, Sand and Schlock, with some sloppy atomic scare film thats trying to copy Godzilla but without anything to say and no budget for spectacle. Its on par with some of the worst films ever made and so we have to adjust our scale accordingly. Enjoy! We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip u...

Liz is back to finish off the month of July with the Lair of the White Worm, an 80s horror with Hugh Grant and Peter Capaldi.

John Aka Mr Socko is back to review some creepy films. We begin with Creep, starring the Wish version of John Krasinski as a guy with no sense of personal boundaries, who just keeps getting weirder and weirder in an Ad-libbed kind of comedy thats also all found footage. Mike’s favourite medium of filming right after German Expressionism. enjoy the Peachfuzz song We are hosted at Captivate where yo...

We have a Pride Month bonus episode for this year cause we can do better than the corporations. We are joined by podcaster Bob Green from the recently ended Candy Coated Razor Blades podcast to discuss the Lesbian vampire film that also sneaks a trans character by us but a lot is written or not written in the film to tell us that. among other things. Does this film have any bit, or does it just su...

Pride Month concludes on the calendar but not on the podcast. This is the second last LGBTQ horror for our pride celebration (we keep our rainbow tombstone up one week longer than the corporations) as we cover Jennifer’s Body. Megan Fox plays a detestable selfish sexpot who gets possessed by a demon and becomes….. well she doesn’t change much except she has powers now. So it’s up to the rest of th...

One of the first Angry Evil Lesbians graces us with her class, her grace, and her venom. Despite being toned down for the Hayes Code, the villain of the movie clearly belongs in the greyscale rainbow. Liz joins us to discuss the Hitchcock romantic thriller, Rebecca. 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 su...

It’s Pride Month once again so Liz joins us as we pay tribute to horrors that contain LGBTQ elements, to give credit to the older queer characters relegated to villains due to their “deviancy” and others who finally get representation. We begin with the sequel to The Craft which is as groundbreaking as the original, as both were equally products of their time. Check Heather’s own podcast Wednesday...

In Sepia No One Can Hear You Scream. Except in this film, which ends our tribute to the silent film genre with colour and sound! Nosferatu was so good we cover it twice as Shadow of the Vampire was the “True” story of the making of the 1922 film. John Malcovich and Willem Dafoe face off for the creepiest fucker award and we’re the winners. Follow us on Twitch for listening parties and just hanging...

As we near the end, we give props to the most famous silent horror Nosferatu: A Symphony in Horror. The ultimate exuberant, this illegal film survived only violating court orders and we are grateful for 5 criminals just sneaking off with the prints that we enjoy today. We are joined by Sheldon to give this film its due. Follow us on Twitch for listening parties and just hanging out. also we have a...

We continue with In Sepia No One Can Hear You Scream as we open up the Cabinet of Dr Caligari and we find a lot more than used razors and toothbrushes. We find the sinister somnambulist, a bizarre backdrop of a town, and most importantly, the sad story of how this was made to be a very different film and the writers desperate struggle. it still doesn’t match Heathers struggle which you will find o...

Mike is joined by Heather and new friend Liz to tackle this creature born of Jewish culture, and we delve into why German Expressionism was critical to horror, and that will come into play for the next couple of weeks as we continue with part 2 of our tribute month “In Sepia No One Can Hear You Scream”. Today we meet the precursor to Frankenstein’s Monster in a foppish wig. Follow us on Twitch for...

In Sepia, No One Can Hear You Scream Part 1. We pay tribute to the originals of horror that paved the way for everything that would come. These are the pioneers of peril, the old ones, but not forgotten. As is the case with months of importance, we will provide historical context that led to these films, what influenced THEM, and who they influenced later. Get ready to laugh and learn, folks! We b...

At Eric’s insistence, we covered this movie. He did not partake in the review. We found out why. It was an act of malice we will not soon forgive or forget. Enjoy our suffering. This is about an alien that travels through televisions. in just one house. yet it can still move around rooms without them. so whats the point? just making a film with a pun title? We could have done better. Follow us on...

Heather and Eric are back to celebrate Easter with the return of fuzzy creatures that deliver eggs. Except the eggs aren’t chocolate, or even carob. They’re sugar apples that contain death beasts from space! The Critters are back and so are the bounty hunters and Brad! This episode has us pretty much coming for each others necks the whole episode, so enjoy that. and Happy Zombie Jesus Day! Follow...

Sputnick 2354 has returned to discuss a personal fave of hers, The Tom Savini remake of the George Romero classic. Not well received upon launch, it pretty much sealed Savinis fate as a director. Has time redeemed it? We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months.

It’s fitting that a movie loaded with weed jokes would end the franchise (and the March of the Leprechaun) on a high note. This is the hood leprechaun we deserve. We hope you have as much hearing us gush over this as you did our suffering over the last one. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months.
