The end of the theatrical releases, and the last time Clive and his team were as hands on. They take us to the beginnings of the puzzle box all the way into space and the conclusion of its saga. Far enough in the future we'll have plenty of room for seven more sequels to go.

A lot of changes and different ideas are thrown at the series in this third entry, which more directly commits to Pinhead as the villain and gives him more of an origin. The franchise also moves from New World to the newly formed Dimension Films. Does it take our breath away, or do we just have seasonal allergies? Find out now!

We are still on pretty safe ground here, with a sequel many enjoy more than the first film. It certainly expands the scope of the universe. We've also seen this one plenty, so had plenty to discuss. You can see that by the runtime. Another great thing about switching to bi-weekly is we can get you these supersized episodes and it's not demanding more of your time!

There will always be more Amityville movies, but we had hit the end of releases so far once again and have taken on another franchise that started going in all sorts of directions, not all in line with the original vision of the series. But first let's take on that initial vision as we watch the Clive Barker classic Hellraiser! Eleven of these to watch, which should mean plenty of Amityville once our soul has been torn apart.

What can we say about a movie that features no audible dialogue? Hopefully a lot, because we're watching this one in REAL TIME! No edits, no breaks, so you can throw it on and watch along with us! Arguments are had, truces made, things shouted. Our season finale before taking on another franchise!

Another in-series sequel, with all the continuity you've come to expect. We're back in the UK, which might just be here in the US, because it's AN Amityville and mentions THE Amityville, but if questions like these are an issue this is definitely not the franchise for you. Still not sure who it actually IS for, but we made a commitment.

We're divided like a carved turkey! We get steamed as Brussells sprouts! We something sauerkraut, but mostly we disagree on another holiday themed entry in the series. When will someone do Arbor Day?

A shorter movie than usual, and a shorter episode to go with it. Beforehand we discuss Christmas in horror films, as well as some other violent holiday films that aren't technically horror but have a much higher body count.

It's amazing it's taken this franchise so long to get to where most franchises will wind up sooner or later: SPACE! And it's not a found item episode, it's the actual house! Ripped from the headlines! 

What happens when someone needs to see the manager of a franchise, but it turns out THERE ISN'T ONE?!? Nothing sounds more fun than an Amityville version of the worst part of working retail! We are broken.

Tom and Pat try and recreate one of two lost episodes from their notes rather than rewatching them. This one was filmed during quarantine as far as we can tell, part montage, part exquisite corpse, mostly just a loose thread that fills two hours. Probably not a great "jumping on point" episode, more "previously on: our broken souls".

Not to be confused with... It's the Netflix one. It's also the last one for now, and so the end of season two! Next we'll go back to season one for a little while, since in the time it took for our trip to Texas (where  our gear was stolen @#$%) they've put out roughly a half dozen more Amityville movies (or we found ones that hadn't previously shown up in our research). 

Not to be confused with the other Leatherface, but at least not a variation of Chain Massacre Saw Texas. This is a prequel, but not tied to the other previous prequels except maybe? I'm beginning to think maybe this series needs to go to space, New York, or Dinosaur Island.

We're back! Sorry for the gap. There was an incident and we lost our gear and some episodes, had to replace all of the above amid the holidays, and may ourselves now be personally cursed by the Amityville house. We're past most of the hurdles, recording, and editing again.  This week we check in on Leatherface during that anti-piracy measure they could upsell people on, 3D! But we didn't watch it in 3D, because that trend just didn't actually trend. Enjoy!

Before there was the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, there was... a Texas chainsaw massacre. Questions are answered, and not the ones you think! Or care about! Prequels are an evergreen way to bring back dead characters, tension be damned! Anyway we see how the sausage is made, back when these butchers actually made sausage.

After another hearty gap, Platinum Dunes got some pretty people and gimmicky filters together for this CW style retelling of the original. We have many thoughts. This is one of those episodes longer than the movie. So many thoughts.

The one they didn't want you to see! Even though, as it turns out, it's much more watchable than some of the ones to follow. We get in some bickering around random things as well. Oscar winners! Robot leg! Enjoy!

We reach 1990, when horror was hitting a rough patch. We cover the time just before this one, when franchises were being run into the ground and box office was dropping off hard, through to the next few years when award and prestige returned to the genre. We'll also talk about this entry, the first without Tobe Hooper.

Our second film series is reenforcing the idea that the second entry in a horror series should just go all out, humor, big ideas, broader scope. We also discuss the twelve years of horror between the first one and this, how much the landscape had changed.

While we wait a few months for more Amityville movies, We're headed to Texas. This franchise stays put! No cursed items, no travel or possessions, just Texas! And Oklahoma for a bit, but not this week.  We're numbering the episodes this way so if people want to listen by season they can, as we'll add episodes for each season as new entries come out. Like how 3 more episodes for season one are on the way after season two.

The End! For now! The very last one released! Except we've been hard at work on a new season and two more have come out. F$#%@!!! Maybe it was the closure looming, even fleetingly, but this one seems like an excellent amalgam of this journey so far. To quote Dick Smothers, "That was not a compliment." We'll have a single skip week then launch into season 2, which is a full rewatch / discovery of skipped ones on another horror series, plus a different angle on our tangents. Details at the end...

"they went there." While that covers so much of this franchise, the two 'there' concepts that come up in budget horror are space and the hood. And weirdly, space is usually first. We honestly don't break down too much of why, because there are way too many reasons better articulated by others. Instead, us two white dudes watch a movie made by at least some white dudes. 

Yes, there have been police officers in previous movies. But not like this! Other movies have had cops like this, though, which we discuss in the preshow. After some computer trouble, we're back for our end run of currently available Amityville movies!

Yep, it's a werewolf movie. We haven't gone to space yet, though we know it's coming. Join us in the ring as we take on the lycanthrope-a-dope, and somehow distract ourselves with musical theater. Weirdly we get from werewolves to musicals in several ways, some of them predictable.

There's nothing scarier than a scarecrow, unless you aren't a crow. Then results may vary. Can we spin straw into gold? Is this outstanding in its field?
