To Avoid Fainting

This week we're talking 2022's   Barbarian ! It's a bit of a long-winded one but that's only because we had lots of important things to talk about...like...Bill Skarsgard. Oh, and things like aged breast milk, Mr Wizard vs Bill Nye, and our usual tangents peppered throughout. And Lauren continues to say all the unhinged things.   Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

We're back this week with a long-awaited pick from Ash where we discuss both the American and Spanish versions of 1931's  Dracula . Did y'alSl even know there was a Spanish version? Better yet, did y'all even know they were both filmed at the same time using the same sets? Listen and find out all about it! Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

We're back this week to give our picks for some summer horror flicks that we love to watch when we're trying to not think about melting from this heat. Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

This week Stacey and Ash get together once again with guest host, Chris, to talk about the underseen and underrated(depends on who you're asking) sci-fi, time travel flick  Lunopolis . It's not a TAF episode if you don't hear every sound possible in Stacey's background and if there was a moon colony, would they be cousin-fuckers (I think we all know who asks this question)?

This week we're talking about 2013's underseen sci-fi mindbender,  Coherence ! (Full disclosure: we recorded this ep back in 2022 but completely forgot to post it, so here you are!) Ash can't stop talking about orgies. Stacey is terrified of her doppelganger. Lauren would beat the shit out of her double given the chance. What do you do when a comet passes over your town and decides to start switch...

This week Ash and I had on a guest to join us in a random mix bag of topics. We talk Ash's premature Halloween decorating and his sliding scale for how he gives out candy. We also talk about movies we've seen lately from Scream 6 to Evil Dead Rise, long movies (Stacey still hates them), the insane Mac and Me ending that should have been, and what movies that are coming soon that we'd like to see....

We're back with another episode in the Insidious universe! We're talking the prequel to James Wan's previous two chapters taking us back into the Further with less cool demons? ghosts? With a directorial debut from Leigh Whannell, does this one hold up against its former flicks? Listen and find out! Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

We continue the Insidious series with Chapter 2! We discuss the chaotic nature of the film, why owning a piano is a....Caucasian thing, and if you're still wondering do the Lambert children get forgotten about again, yes, they do. Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

We're back this week with a TAF favorite. We talk 2011's  INSIDIOUS and of course it's not without our usual musings on things such as Stacey and Lauren's mutual love/obession?? for Patrick Wilson, what our favorite scariest part of the film is, and what's not the best meal to have after being held captive by a demon for several months.

This week we're sitting down to talk about 1988's squish-tastic remake of  THE BLOB . We continue to torture Lauren with movies that have disgusting noises and somehow manage to bring fleshlights and prolapsed buttholes into the conversation, of course.  Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

It's been a rough end of year, but we couldn't leave yall with nothing for the fart end of 2022! Here's our re-release from last NYE on a TAF favorite! Cheers everyone, and we'll see you in 2023! ---- 2021 is just about over! Let's end the year with a holiday-appropriate episode, where Ash and Stacey talk about the under-watched (maybe for a good reason?), NEW YEAR'S EVIL . Mike had to sit this on...

WE'RE BACK! Oh, an unexpected TAF disappearance, nothing y'all haven't weathered before! This is a bit of an older ep, just by 2 months, (hence the reason it's Halloween-themed), but we couldn't let it go to waste. Enjoy a seasonal favorite of ours! Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast  

We're kicking off the best month of the year with a spooky Halloween haunt of a flick,  HELL HOUSE LLC . Combining two of Stacey's fears: haunted attractions AND ghost-y shit? Here we go! Follow us on Instagram @toavoidfaintingpodcast Twitter @toavoidfainting

This week we're joined by our special guest, John, from Under The Floorboards podcast! We gave him free reign to pick a movie, and now we're here, with a flick from Shudder, 2021's  SON .  Ash is inappropriate as usual, Lauren and I weigh the pros and cons (pros mostly) about mothering the Antichrist, and John probably wonders the whole time how he ended up here with us. Be sure to rate and leave...

This week we get together to talk about 2009's "evil kid" horror flick ORPHAN . What are the odds of adopting a small Russian child only to find out they're actually a psychopathic grown ass adult? Listen and find out! Follow us on Instagram @toavoidfaintingpodcast Twitter @toavoidfainting Be sure to rate and review!

This week Ash decides he hates Stacey and subjects her to one of her biggest dislikes: musicals. We're talking about 1986's  Little Shop of Horrors . We discuss the awkwardness of domestic violence being a comedic point of the film, the wildly different endings, Stacey's inability to sit through a musical number without fast forwarding, and we realize all roads eventually lead to Rule #34 (IFYKYK)...

We're back! Stacey's immune system wanted to betray her last week, so there was no new episode, but we're back with Mike's pick this time! We sit down together and talk about 1981's political/conspiracy thriller,  BLOW OUT . We discuss John Travolta in his heyday, weak female character writing, the pure bleakness of the ending, and another week where Mike and Ash want to disown Stacey for not seei...

MIKE IS BACK!! This week we get together to talk about the 90s Stephen King adaptation,  Needful Things . Why does Stacey have to be subjected to more 2 hr long movies? Was Max Von Sydow aging backwards? Are small town folk really this stupid? Listen and find out! Follow us on Instagram @toavoidfaintingpodcast Twitter @toavoidfainting

We're joined once again this week by guest host, Lauren, to help us talking about Blumhouse's latest horror flick,  THE BLACK PHONE . We discuss Scott Derrickson's obvious love of grainy film footage and dead kids, why were the children in this movie raging maniacs, and the absurdity of stopping to help a strange man with white face paint and Dahmer glasses while a kidnapper is on the loose in the...

This week we're joined by a special guest and talk about 1980's campy cult classic,  MOTEL HELL ! Are we opposed to eating human meat if it's on deal? Is this movie definitely about GILF-hunting? Does Ash finally have nothing bad to say about a movie? Guess you better listen to find out! Find us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast And Twitter @ToAvoidFainting  

This week Ash and Stacey-Beth get together (Mike sat this one out) to talk about Shudder's newest addition, MAD GOD . Visual effects master Phil Tippet's labor of love stop animation film that took 30 years to make. Does the movie make any sense? Probably not. Did Stacey fall asleep mid-way through? There's a good chance! Listen and find out. Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast Twitter:...

On this episode we get together to talk about Ti West's latest horror offering,  X . It's Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Boogie Nights with old people sex thrown in. You can hear all about Stacey's distaste for old folks, Ash's consistent mispronunciation of Kid Cudi's name, and poor Mike just along for the ride!

This week we're talking about 1991's  THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS  directed by Wes Craven. Does it still hold up for the crew after all these years? Listen to find out! Sorry for the rushed ending, but be sure to follow us on IG: @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast @staceybethh @_the_texorcist_ @mike1139

Our first episode of 2022! Stacey, Ash, and Mike get together to talk about Lars Von Trier's  The House That Jack Built .  Follow us on Instagram @ToAvoidFaintingPodcast

Merry Christmas! This week we're talking about the classic holiday horror, BLACK CHRISTMAS . This movie has all you could want for the most wonderful time of the year- vulgar phone calls, drunk college girls, the brutal murder of said college girls, dipshit cops, and fun facts on the fucking rituals of turtles. What a joy! *episode ends a little abruptly because why wouldn't we have technical issu...
