Episode 51: Heretic 11.03.2025 45:22
Two young, devout missionaries are doing their best to convert as many as they can to their religion and are struggling to do so in today’s world. The missionaries are two young women who are traveling through town, stopping at any home who expressed interest in Mormonism and people they pass through the streets. After a day of struggling, the two girls come across an older gentleman who is willin...
Episode 50: The Best Horror Movies of 2024 04.03.2025 1:10:15
Last year was a year for horror movies to say the least. At one point in the year, it seemed like the dominating genre in theaters was horror and nothing more. We also saw streaming services release their own films that would not come out to the big screen that would catch everyone’s attention as well. In all honesty, it’s been nice to watch horror get the recognition it has for the last few years...
Episode 49: Heart Eyes 25.02.2025 57:06
A new movie that embodies both horror and romance in one film and it’s one that caught MJ and Marva by surprise, Heart Eyes. This movie had wild coverage on social media and the hype for the movie was unreal. It seems like throughout the last few years, the Heart Eye Killer has tormented couples on Valentine’s Day on the East side of the nation. This year, they make it their way to Seattle of all...
Episode 48: My Bloody Valentine (1981) 11.02.2025 41:04
Who says the month of love can’t be filled with horror too? Marva and MJ take on a cult classic, My Bloody Valentine (1981). What seems to be a small, rural miner town that has nothing going on quickly changes to a town that has the streets running with blood. Every one of the older residents is haunted by a miner gone mad, Harry Warden. He is rumored to roam the streets on Valentine’s Day, makin...
Episode 47: Nosferatu 04.02.2025 1:06:46
A timeless classic gets retold, with Robert Egger’s Nosferatu. It’s a gothic horror movie about a young woman who has a psychic connection to what we’d call a vampire. She struggles to make sense of the connection the two share and the effects it has on her— along with those around her. We watch as their story unfold in a very unsettling way and the retelling of the film had so many mixed reviews...
Episode 46: Clown 28.01.2025 23:44
A movie about one of the very few things Marva truly dislikes...and it’s one of the wildest ones yet. What starts off as an innocent gesture for a kids birthday party ends up being the biggest mistake a father can make for his entire family. Clown (2014) does a good job of explaining the history of clowns and why some of you might not be a big fan of the figures. This movie honestly sparked up Ma...
Episode 45: Creepy Sweets (Interview) 21.01.2025 36:00
Our most anticipated episode yet and it’s such a killer treat! Marva and MJ have a special guest on this week’s episode with none other than the founder and mastermind behind Creepy Sweets herself, Shani! The duo take the time to learn more about the horror that feeds into Creepy Sweet’s creations, the lore behind the brand, discussions about the horror genre and community as a whole. They also t...
Episode 44: Hatchet 3 14.01.2025 42:09
MJ started the discussion about a franchise that the Slashers N Sync duo have come to love—Hatchet. Marvalous takes on the final movie in the original trilogy and gives her thoughts of the goodbye movie to Crowley. What started off as a fun Mardi Gras experience for a group of college kids ended up being the kickstart to a bloody good franchise that resulted into many dying and many believing in g...
Episode 43: Trap 07.01.2025 52:40
What starts off as a fun night out between father and daughter turns into a heart-racing catch-me-if-you-can styled movie that leaves the heart of the masses pounding with anticipation of either getting caught or getting away with it. M. Night Shyamalan debuted his film earlier this year called Trap, and it had the masses talking. People seemed to have either loved the movie or they would walk out...
Episode 42: Jordan Peele VS Ari Aster 31.12.2024 1:01:56
Horror fanatics know that horror movies and the genre itself go through many changes, but there was one major change—a renaissance if you will—that took the horror community by storm, and it was Elevated Horror. Jordan Peele and Ari Aster set in motion a change that we haven’t seen in years. Their debut movies were so iconic that the horror genre itself got a revamp, whether the movies followed al...
Episode 41: Krampus 24.12.2024 27:48
In this episode, we dive into the holiday-themed horror film Krampus (2015), a festive mix of dark comedy and supernatural chills. While it may not be the scariest horror movie out there, Krampus offers a fun, casual watch that brings some eerie holiday spirit to the season. We discuss what works, what doesn’t, and why this film has become a cult favorite for many. If you’re in the mood for someth...
Episode 40: Reddit Horror Stories (P1) 17.12.2024 1:06:35
In each episode of Reddit Horror Stories, we dive into the darkest corners of Reddit to bring you chilling true stories straight from the platform’s most spine-tingling threads. From eerie encounters to unexplainable events, these terrifying tales will leave you questioning the line between reality and the supernatural. In today’s episode, we explore two horrifying stories: a wife who unknowingly...
Episode 39: Thanksgiving 10.12.2024 1:00:44
What’s considered to be a true American holiday gets thrown into the realm of horror with this most recent film from (insert director name)’s world—one that once was famous for having a franchise that could rival Saw. Marvalous and I talk about the story of the new-ish movie Thanksgiving and the horrors the killer, John Carver, brings to a small town known as Plymouth. This twisted “who-did-it” s...
Episode 38: Hatchet 2 26.11.2024 35:34
In this episode, we continue our discussion of the Hatchet franchise with the 2010 follow-up, Hatchet 2 . Directed by Adam Green, this sequel cranks up the bloodshed, the gore, and the horror, while staying true to the franchise’s love for practical effects and old-school slasher call-backs. We discuss how Hatchet 2 takes Victor Crowley’s reign of terror to new heights with even more creative and...
Episode 37: Hatchet 19.11.2024 21:48
In this episode, we dive deep into the cult classic Hatchet (2006), directed by Adam Green, a film that brought back the gritty, old-school slasher vibe that fans had been craving. With its no-CGI, all-practical-effects approach, Hatchet not only resurrected the spirit of ’80s horror but also delivered some of the most creative and gruesome kills in recent memory. We explore the genius behind the...
Episode 36: History of Halloween (the Holiday) 12.11.2024 51:38
Halloween and spooky season may be over for most other folks but for us ghouls, the vibe it has is a year round thing! Marvalous and I already talked about the iconic franchise Halloween, so this time we wanted to talk about the holiday itself. The history of Halloween is conveyed in different ways throughout pop-culture, some more contradicting than others; so, we take the time to really talk ab...
Episode 35: Terrifier 3 29.10.2024 47:24
The third installment in the Terrifier franchise has shaken up the film industry! David Leone's Terrifier franchise continues to one up the other and horror fans love every single of it. Marva and I are late to the party but we finally watched Terrifier 3 and we just had to talk about! Did Terrifier 3 live up to the hype? Let's talk about it! Slasher's n Sync Website: https://bio....
Episode 34: Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills, and Halloween Ends 22.10.2024 1:43:58
The final episode covering the Halloween franchise is here, and this time we are covering the Greene time line or movies! Anyone who watched the reboot of Halloween in 2018 was excited to see what story Greene and Carpenter had in mind about Michael Myers and how they would tell it. The two directors put their heads together to bring us the final (at least for now) telling of Myers’ story and it w...
Episode 33: Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, Halloween (2007), and Halloween 2 (2009) 15.10.2024 1:29:41
About 20 years have passed since the release of the original Halloween (1978) and the masses got two versions of Michael Myers coming back to the big screens. One was Halloween H20, the continuation of The Shape’s story, and the other was Rob Zombie’s interpretation of the infamous Myers story—causing Halloween and Halloween II to come to fruition. Each had their own way of expanding on the univer...
Episode 32: Halloween 4, Halloween 5, and Halloween 6 08.10.2024 1:31:53
We take on a time line that was inspired by the original Halloween trilogy, but takes on a twist of its own. It is more commonly known among the horror community as the Thorn trilogy or time line of Halloween. The Halloween franchise in general is not the easiest to jump into due to the amount of interpretations and time lines that exist. Many can’t just put on Halloween (1978), watch all the way...
Episode 31: Halloween (1978), Halloween II, and Halloween: Season of the Witch 01.10.2024 1:20:12
As promised, Marva and I take on the franchise that has had generations in a choke-hold and made this horror icon a household name: Halloween! We talk about John Carpenter’s adaptation of this story first. He is the man who brought us Michael to begin with, and made the idea of the Boogey Man/The Shape a fearsome one; It is definitely something that could easily haunt your nightmares. In today’s e...
Episode 30: Under Paris / Sous la Seine 24.09.2024 58:09
Marva and I dive into a film we saw in our recommendation list, Under Paris. For lack of better words, the movie was jaw dropping. What starts off as a heart-warming, ocean conservation movement kind of film and quickly turns into a horror and thriller movie that expands on the idea of nature vs nurture and Mother Nature lashing out at the group responsible for her pain. The underlying tone of the...
Episode 29: Hell Fest 17.09.2024 48:57
Marva and I breakdown a guilty pleasure of ours, Hell Fest! Ever since its release, one of us will always play it when Halloween season comes around. The kills and the setting the film never fails to increase our hype for our favorite time of year. We watch as a group of friends take on a Halloween event, one that doesn’t have the best of reputation, but not for the mazes; it causes attendees to...
Episode 28: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice 10.09.2024 1:00:01
The sequel to the cult classic, Beetlejuice, just came out in theaters and it’s so good (some say) that you need to say its name twice: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. MJ and I review this sequel film after much anticipation and try to see if it’ll break the curse of most sequels—that the original is always better, no matter what the sequel puts out. This is one of the few films that brings the both of...
Episode 27: Fear Street 1666 03.09.2024 51:40
Marvalous and I wrap up our review of the Fear Street trilogy with this week’s special episode. We discuss the final movie of the trilogy, how Deena makes things right in her hometown and giving our overall rating of the series. We also divulge in the backstory of the series altogether: from books to the big screen (kinda), Fear Street. Let’s kick off spooky season together by closing the book on...
