Join us as we explore Kristofferson's impactful role, dissect the film’s iconic action scenes, and discuss its place as a precursor to all those modern Marvel superhero movies.

This week, we fielded a longstanding request from several of you, and brought on board one of those lucky listeners, Neal, to discuss in-depth a clever meta-horror pseudo-documentary that neither Craig nor Todd had seen before. But oh boy, did we enjoy this one! Full of fun cameos and clever takes on the slasher genre conventions, it twisted and turned in places we both expected and didn't expect at all - with a killer ending to boot! Enjoy, folks!

New kid moves into a new town and unleashes ancient magic from an artifact she found in the attic of her historic house. Sound familiar? Despite an under-utilized cast of stars, groan-worthy cliches and flat jokes, there's some easygoing magic at work here that will appeal to kids and adults alike who can handle the surprisingly scary Halloween decorations that come to life as fodder for Marlon Wayans' chainsaw.

While it boasts a star-studded cast (Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci, Christopher Lee, Jeffrey Jones, and practically the entire cast of the Harry Potter series), we note that the passage of time has not remained kind to this one. What is wrong with it? Nothing, actually. It's just ... well, not what we expected, and not as fond as we remembered it. Nevertheless, the classic tale of Ichabod Crane and The Headless Horseman is utterly PERFECT for conjuring up those Halloween vibes. Let's take a...

With its catchy Broadway-style songs, all-star cast (including Tim Curry as the Grand Wizard), and super-cheesy 80's green screen special effects, this family-friendly flick follows the mishaps of Mildred (Fairuza Balk) as she clumsily bumbles her way through witch school - but ultimately saves the day in the end, of course. We also talk about the links between this film (based on a bestselling children's book series) and the Harry Potter franchise, and Craig and Kristen sing a duet or two....

We also talk about the links between this film (based on a bestselling children's book series) and the Harry Potter franchise, and Craig and Kristen sing a duet or two. It's an episode for the whole family. Enjoy!

We were guessing all the way through this star-studded slasher movie that turned out to be just what we were looking for in a Halloween flick. Enjoy!

How will these kids team up with the prolific author to put back all the monsters they've unleashed from his books? Watch the movie to find out, then listen in and see if you agree with our assessment of it.

We lost a legend, folks: A young and strapping James Earl Jones stars in this loony folk-horror movie that hilariously fails to hit on almost every mark. So bad it's good? You'd better believe it. And he's not the only Oscar-winner in this You'll also be treated to performances by José Ferrer and Lila Kedrova, a young Martin Kove, former Miss USA Deborah Shelton, and some of the most gorgeous views of the Greek Isles you'll see on film.

Be warned, friends: The laughs may be bright and carefree, but the movie is about as dark as they come. We follow the harrowing journey of a sweet little family as they visit the home of another family they met while on vacation in Tuscany. This month, an American remake hits the theaters, and we're dying to see if and how it shakes things up.

Otherwise, there are probably better so-bad-they're-good movies to spend your time with. Craig revisited some nostalgic one-liners from his childhood, while Todd just threw up his hands.

We wrap up our Roger Corman tribute with the last film he directed, way back in 1990. It's a smarter-than-you'd-imagine version of the Frankenstein story that incorporates a modern-day mad scientist, time travel, and Mary Shelley herself - not to mention an all-star cast, including Raul Julia, John Hurt, and Bridget Fonda.

Stephen Spielberg called this his favorite Jaws knock-off, and we can see why. It's just cheesy fun from beginning to end, with great underwater photography and terrible, horrible mutant piranhas on the attack.

Not only did A Bucket Of Blood give Dick Miller one of his few starring roles, but it provided a story template (as well as leftover sets and actors) for Little Shop of Horrors a year later. See if this Corman classic still provides laughs and chills today as we walk you through this homage to House of Wax that parodies the beatnik scene at the time.

Legendary filmmaker, Roger Corman, sadly left us this year. House of Usher (aka The Fall of the House of Usher) is the first of our four-part tribute to his legacy as a director, producer, and all-around powerhouse in the film industry. Join us as we spend the next four weeks discussing all-things-Corman with a curated selection of films that represent some of the best of his horror output, while showcasing his uncanny ability to make box office bank by nurturing up-and-coming talents and...

Honestly, there's not much we can say about this film that hasn't already been said. But we sure enjoyed revisiting it after so many years, and it still managed to surprise and delight us.

A controversial and nasty rape-revenge shocker when it came out, it nevertheless was defended by critics for being a standout amongst its kind for its uncompromising and raw treatment of violence against two innocent teens at the hands of some hardened and callous criminals. And it certainly set the stage for Wes Craven's and Sean Cunningham's takeover of the horror genre in the decades to follow. Listen as we dissect this uncomfortable classic through a modern lens. We also reflect on 9+...

Thanks to Paul for this long-standing request, selected by our Patrons. Coincidentally, The Sixth Sense and Stir of Echoes share similar themes, but this one is stylishly directed by accomplished screenwriter David Koepp. We had nothing bad to say about it. Enjoy!

Directed by Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day), co-written by Michael Kennedy (It's A Wonderful Knife), Freaky stars Vince Vaughn in a masterful and hilarious turn as a teenage girl trapped in the body of a Jason-like serial killer. Ultimately, we both agreed this modern horror-comedy is pure popcorn fun from beginning to end, yet still maintains a satisfyingly sharp, gory edge. Check it out!

This week we pay tribute to Donald Sutherland, who recently passed away, with the 1978 remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Along with a look at Sutherland's performance, career and uncharacteristic magnetism, we discussed why this story has resonated with audiences throughout several generations.

A typical haunted-house story gets a Satanic twist in this lackluster 70's entry that almost feels like a goofy made-for-TV movie. So naturally, although we were hoping for much better, we had a blast picking it apart and groaning.

Touted by many as a "solid zombie movie" and reminiscent of Fulci's far-better Zombi 2, we found it...well, a little dull and tedious. With one very notable exception...

We wrap up Werewolf Month with a listener suggestion. 2015's Howl is kind of like a Train To Busan, but with werewolves in the dead of night in the English countryside. A solid film to end a solid four-week overview of the werewolf genre. Hope you've enjoyed Werewolf month, sponsored by Manscaped!

Jammed full of action and gunfire, this Neil Marshall debut did remind us a wee bit of Predator. We just wish we had enjoyed this one as much as we expected to. Hopefully you'll enjoy this episode though!
