I already wrote this summary once but the browser crashed and I'm really grumpy about having to write it again. Tonight's main feature is our first-time watch of The Haunting of the Tower of London by Dark Temple Films. We also do spoiler-free reviews of two shorts: The Thing That Ate the Birds and The Beckoning. Other topics include the Uncanny podcast on BBC Sounds, Doctor Sleep, and the now-legendary FUNNY QUIZ!

In our overdue Easter special, we watch a seasonal horror-comedy called Critters 2. We also do a funny quiz, lovingly prepared for us by Adam. Thanks Adam!

Tonight we watch a stone cold classic and emerge somewhat bewildered, with some very strong opinions on how to stack boxes. We also recommend some British indies: Homebound by Sebastian Godwin, and the work of George Popov and Jonathan Russell, aka Rubicon Films.

Hannah and Ellis watch a low budget (but very interesting) British horror called The Fallow Field. You probably haven't seen it, so, for one night only, we revive the spoiler-free bit that we stopped doing several episodes ago. That's followed by spoilers between 22:00 and 36:50. We also mention Fear Street, another British indie called Followers, and a bit of news about an audiobook from Bafflegab Productions. AND there's a funny quiz. Ambassador, with this hour of content you are really...

Tonight we watch Malignant and do a funny quiz. One heck of a film - one heck of a quiz.

Join Ellis and Hannah for something different: their spoiler-filled review of Bafflegab's full cast audio adaptation of The Signalman by Charles Dickens. Includes a funny quiz with a surprising number of sharks.

Afraid we've got some minor sound issues this week! If you can hear us, we'll be watching a recent release called The Night House. Spare pants on standby...

Lep in the Hood - is the movie good? Hannah finally gets to witness the straight-to-video horror legend. We also cover the 2021 Ghost Story for Christmas, Jack in the Box Awakening, and our fond memories of the Millennium Bug.

We're back! Join us for our review of Jordan Peele's Candyman, with brief digressions about The Stylist, Wolf Creek, The Ring, and the whole Leprechaun franchise. No funny quiz sadly, but I promise to rustle one up for next time.

A jam-packed episode, and our longest to date! We start off by interviewing Ricky Glore about his imminent Kickstarter, which is going to fund a film called All Your Friends Are Dead. Then we watch and review The Plague of the Zombies by Hammer Horror. THEN we do a funny quiz with puns aplenty. We had a lot of fun on this one - hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Reunited after ten days of self-isolation, Hannah and Ellis struggle to remember Midsommar, which they saw before Ellis got pinged. Hearty thanks to Eloise for the recommendation!

After a year and a half of COVID, we finally made it back to the cinema! Sit back and enjoy our review of The Conjuring 3. Also includes a slightly unusual quiz by Hannah.
Published 07/07/21
Tonight we watch Happy Death Day for the first time and make Hannah do a funny quiz. We recorded the episode together in person, with the exception of the quiz, which was done remotely a few days later. Hope you like it!

We're back!! Apologies for the interruption - it turns out we don't like watching films separately, so lockdown turned into a brief hiatus. We're now back in business and couldn't be more delighted. In this reunion show, we talk about toilets, buses and Galaxy Minstrels before sitting down to watch a 1957 film called Night of the Demon. Don't know it? Neither did we. Tune in to find out if we liked it.

Join us - or should that be "you're nuts"? - as we discuss Sam Raimi's confusingly-named remake of his own film. Other topics include bad subtitles, chocolate cereal, American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, and an exclusive interruption from the Amazon delivery guy.

Hannah and Ellis watch THREE of the BBC's Ghost Stories for Christmas, just in time for the Christmas Eve podcast. Stay tuned after the waffle for another funny quiz.

This episode was recorded on the last day of the 2020 October Frightfest. Hannah wasn't free, so Ellis had a friend round to watch and review some short films. Our favourites were Bakemono, Teething, Peaking, and Don't Walk.

A bumper show recorded at the virtual FrightFest! The films are brand new so we won't be doing spoilers for once (well - not big ones, anyway). Includes our five-star reviews of The Reckoning, Alien on Stage and Benny Loves You, plus four-star reviews of The Banishing and Broil.
