The Spooky Succubus-Cast

Uh oh, it’s a neo-n@zi episode! This week, we’re talking about Green Room, a near perfect horror movie about the punk scene, skinheads, and how fucking diabolical white women are. Also, we take several not-so-quick asides to talk about hottie Joe Cole and Peaky Blinders.

This week Abby and Rebecca discuss the enduring classic, Child’s Play. We chat serial killer inspirations, the racist and lazy use of VooDoo as a plot device, and of course gush over Brad Douriff’s scary and sexy voice work.

We’re a day late and a dollar short because we both fully forgot to post this episode! It’s possible we just wanted to wipe this movie from our brains, because it might be the most offensive rag we’ve ever covered! Content warning for incels that love Newbury Comics.

In this slightly shorter episode, Rebecca gets to experience Hocus Pocus for the first time and has a lot of questions. We talk museum maintenance, Thackery as a 90s heartthrob, and of course flying vacuums ridden by the icon Kathy Najimy. Happy Spooky Season!

Spooky Season is in full swing and we are celebrating with Michael Dougherty’s 2007 anthology flick, Trick ‘r Treat. It features a whole bunch of ableism and the cutest little movie villain there ever was: Sam! Happy Halloweenie, y’all!

Jessica Biel’s boobs have a starring role in this lackluster remake that finds five entitled teenagers mocking ugly and disabled people and ignoring red flags left and right. Just saying: if you stick your arm willingly into an abandoned car’s gas tank and pull out a jar that look like it once housed an organ maybe you deserve what happens to you. Also, Frankie the dog has a mid-recording melt dow...

This week, it’s our triumphant return for our 2nd Season & our 50th episode! To celebrate, we are taking on a whale of a film: Hitchcock’s near perfectly made 1954 classique, Rear Window! Is this movie an extraordinary feat of technical filmmaking? Yes! Does misogynist shit man Alfred Hitchcock belong in a stinky garbage can covered in old banana peels? Also yes! Join us and we’ll cover it all...

We recorded this so long ago we forgot anything we talked about in this episode, but we’re covering the 2006 remake of the Omen! We talk about Abby’s intolerance of Liev Schreiber’s stupid fucking face, societal gaslighting of women and mothers, and abuses perpetrated by the Catholic Church. Another action packed episode!

This week, we are going deep into the woods & far away from other people to Abby’s dream home. Unfortunately, there is also a spree killer there. We’re discussing Hush, Mike Flanagan’s problematic 2016 flick about a slasher targeting a deaf woman in her home. We chat about the deaf community’s response to casting a g-darn HEARING person in the lead role and (as always) the evils of white men....

Do you want to hear a clinically depressed woman yell about Massachusetts geography? We’ve got the podcast for you. This week, Rebecca and Abby cover Renny Harlin’s literal disaster, The Covenant! This bad boy boasts a 4% on Rotten Tomatoes and couldn’t be prouder of being a movie about white male colonizers. Plus, a very clumsy addiction metaphor!

In this week’s episode, Abby and Rebecca discuss one of Abby’s favorites and unfortunately a really fun, well-made, subversive horror movie that was written by a total asshat. We talk questionable 2000s fashion, movie monsters, subverting all tropes but the big bad (the marginalization of BIPOC), and so much more!

This week, Rebecca and Abby are covering Ringu, the spooky J-Horror flick that deserves so much more than the whitewashed, white supremacist, shot-for-shot American remake it received. We talk about the ghost in Japanese culture and the marginalization of female characters. PLUS Ringu gives us a great opportunity to chat more about Baby Jessica losing her toe after falling in that well!

While Terrifier’s Art the Clown is a wonderfully deranged villain, Damien Leone is really over here just throwing horror tropes at the wall to see what sticks. He could have just told us he hates women without making make a feature film about it… but assholes like him are what keeps our content flowing, baby!

If you’re ready to talk about a decades-long horror franchise that exploits the real-life trauma and murder of actual people and rationalizes white men doing whatever they want and blaming on demons let me hear you say hell yeah! This week, we talk about covert abuse, the economic pressures of working class families in the 1970’s, and white male terrorists. Also, we pour one out for a fallen hero:...

TROLL! This week, Abby becomes a troll truther and we chat about maintaining a healthy distrust of bureaucracy. We also take a brief foray into Nordic anti-semitism, but as usual, we have no idea what we’re talking about! Join us for a stinky episode covered in the blood of a Christian man.

It happened. Rebecca turned the big 3-0 and to celebrate we covered a movie near and dear to her cold, dead little heart: Scream! We recorded this live and in person and it probably shows in the lack of sound engineering prowess reflected in the audio, but it has moxie, dang it!

This movie has achieved the high honor of worst we’ve ever covered and is truly just not fun to watch, but somebody had to do it, I guess. From indigenous erasure to casting white ladies as Egyptian women we’re talking about it (even though nobody asked us to).

Ableism abounds in this deranged and insensitive movie that has literally no right to be over two hours long. We tackle everything from mental illness to the marginalization of BIPOC and female character actors. Plus: Rebecca hears about baby Jessica falling in a well for the very first time!

AGWHAAN is a stunning, genre-bending film that gives us so much to intelligently research and discuss, but we bungle it and just barely converse like normal humans. You’ll hear our very uneducated takes on veiling traditions and queerness in repressive societies, as well as much fawning over our favorite new scream queen, Arash <3

This week, we demand justice for Carrie (and Piper Laurie’s curl pattern) and talk about our least favorite topic that we’re always talking about: the male gaze. Also, Abby tries to convince Rebecca that Carrie’s fiery rampage is actually an allegory for communism. It goes great!

An American Werewolf in London is a Landis flick that tells the tale of two young American guys that, while backpacking through Northern England, get attacked by a werewolf. It manages to be misogynistic but also has an underlying tragic queer narrative; goofiness ensues.

This week we’re covering Mike Flanagan’s 2013 movie Oculus, and everyone (including us) is sad and dead. While this film really hammers home the mother in horror trope, Ol’ Flan manages to craft a pretty nuanced female character in Karen Gillan’s Kaylie.

This beauty has everything: a whopping 15% on Rotten Tomatoes, Vivica A. Fox in a nun’s habit, and Seth Green during the phase when he dyed his hair black! That’s right, we’re doing “Idle Hands” and our thesis is that it’s a sophisticated work advocating for body neutrality. Who’s with us?

This week, we careen straight into certain disaster by taking on spectacular blaxploitation horror/experimental art film Ganja and Hess (despite having no qualifications and being huge idiots). In all seriousness, if you haven't seen this movie, WATCH IT.

Your favorite human disasters are back! We're talking about 1998 cult favorite "The Faculty" and Rebecca is truly impassioned. This movie has everything: Jon Stewart with a goatee, Clea Duvall in a weird normie lavender dress, and Piper Laurie's blush! Oh and we also have a casual chat about whether every 90's movie was brainwashing against labor organizing.
