This is a movie Matt has waited 26 years to watch. Is it scary? Yes. Is it good? Yea, pretty good actually!

This is a pretty scary movie on a few different levels. Matt and Ginny highly recommend this one!
Man, the 80's were rough. What is rougher is having a bunch of ghosts living in your house and stealing your kids.
Matt really roasts this movie. Maybe it's because Ginny falsely claimed Nick Offerman was in it? It's about heavy metal and Satanic murders.
Dancers in 1970's Berlin get caught up in the machinations of a witch coven! How exciting for Matt and Ginny's return to podding! We missed you too, guys....
One of the oldest films we have watched and an true original. I mean honestly, getting pregnant with Satan's baby? Doesn't get better than that! Matt disagrees with me, as usual.
Matt relieves his childhood terror as we review the Exorcist. Nothing like some pea soup to get ya thinking about the devil!
Matt and Ginny tune into the sequel and the 2nd movie in the Alien franchise. Ripley really turns into a badass in this movie and steps into her role as an action hero.
Matt and Ginny rehash the classic 1979 movie, Alien. Sigourney Weaver is amazing and space is really the worst.
Matt and Ginny disagree on this satirical film about 5 teenagers on an ill-fated trip. But that's really what you're here for, isn't it listeners?
This is a classic movie about a teenage girl who has a hellish time in high school. Cathartic for all of us, even Matt, who was once Homecoming King.

Netflix has probably recommended this movie for you. Well, you should watch it! It's a wild ride of a film about zombies on a train, set in South Korea. Probably prepare to cry, too.
Travel back with Matt and Ginny to a simpler time. Well, maybe not more simple given these family dynamics. Full of mysterious events, witches, Satanism, great costumes and an real dismal view of Puritan America.
Matt and Ginny review Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later. It doesn't get more classic than flesh eating zombies, loyal listeners.
What is better than a movie about cannibals? Perhaps a period piece about cannibals? Matt and Ginny review an odd movie that is surprisingly fun.
Why is spelunking a bad idea? Maybe because all these ladies are about to get eaten by cave-dwellers. Or maybe just because there are bats down there. Matt and Ginny take on the Descent, one of Ginny's favorite horror movies!
This is a kinky sex movie masquerading as a horror movie. Let Matt and Ginny introduce you to Pinhead, the dude with the pins in this face. You know that guy!
Chainsaws, Texans, Leatherface, the 1970's. What does this movie lack? Certainly not screaming! Listen as Matt and I review a true classic.
This is 2019's re-imagining of Child's Play, featuring a much creepier doll and much more graphic violence. Enjoy what has to be Mark Hamill's weirdest voice-over role!
Man, the 80's produced some great horror films! This one is about a possessed doll that murders people. The doll is also a redhead.
In 1990, somebody decided to make a movie about spiders infesting a small town. It is surprisingly scary, even with all the pleated khakis that appear throughout the movie.
We have our first ever guest star- Remy Ortiz! Based in (and recording from!) LA, Remy is a Nightmare on Elm Street aficionado and graciously shares his expertise with us. We review Nightmare pt. 3, The Dream Warriors, and talk about growing up with Freddy Krueger and the Nightmare franchise.
Time loops, montages, murder, what doesn't this movie have? Oh right, a plot that makes sense. Matt and I review Happy Death Day 2 U, a sequel to Happy Death Day.
This is a HP Lovecraft story that has been adapted into a very trippy movie involving Nicolas Cage, aliens, and alpacas. Matt and I struggle with our feelings about this one and we share our theories on the ending.
It's movie popcorn- college girl keeps getting killed on her birthday and is stuck in a time loop. I enjoy the ride, Matt a little less so.
Matt made me watch an artsy movie about 2 dudes in a lighthouse in the 1800's. It is technically a horror movie and is also very different than most horror movies. Enjoy my bewilderment!
A fun, light-hearted look at family dynamics and Satanism. Yes, Satanism. We can also promise that the film will make you feel better about your family!
Watch Freddy Krueger battle Jason Vorhees in a movie that has way too much plot. 2003 is bringin' those bootcut jeans back!
Two movies for the price of one! We watch the 2nd movie in both of the Freddy and Jason series. Useful for a unexpectedly long commute and/or interactions with people.
The reason you have always been scared of sleep away camps! Watch where the legend of Jason began. No hockey masks though.
The legend of Freddy Krueger begins here. Matt and Ginny remain unimpressed but it is a classic.
Can’t believe we watched an alligator movie set in Florida. It’s great though and we really enjoyed it. Don’t be scared off!
It’s 1992 and there is indoor smoking and shoulder pads. Join Matt and Ginny for a Chicago-based horror movie that delves into racism and features lots of hooks.
Matt and Ginny watch the 2018 restart to the Halloween franchise. There are a lot of ladies in this movie and it has excellent dialogue.
Disclaimer: The track skips around minute 20-25. It’s us, not you.
Join us for a review of the Rob Zombie remake of the original Halloween. There is a lot of nudity in it and that’s about the best thing we can say about the movie. [Trigger Warning: There is rape in this movie and we talk about it.]
The original horror flick starring Michael Myers and some fabulous 70’s decor. Enjoy the birth of slasher flicks.
You know we have a thing for Nic Cage, right? He’s pretty spectacular in this bloody revenge flick.
Like the first one but longer. Luckily, we review it for you so you don’t have to plan your pee breaks.
Matt and I were not ready for this really intense cult film. We will bravely review it for you though!
Where the magic was born! The first movie that Matt and Ginny watched together in theatres.
