We're back to talk about some more spooky cinema! This episode, Adam and I discuss a movie that is ripe for conversation, Ari Aster's 2018 horror-drama Hereditary. It's a quaint film about grief, loss, and making sure there are no nuts in a dessert before consuming it. We had a blast breaking down this film and shared our initial thoughts from our first viewing, so make sure to tune in and see if you agree!

We know! It's been forever and a day since we've had a new show, and we're truly sorry about that. But we're back and ready to talk more about the Chucky franchise. On this episode, we break down Seed of Chucky, a film that left both of us really confused.

Hi all! We're back and continuing our deep dive into the Child's Play series, and this time, the Chuck isn't alone. This episode, we talk about the off-the-wall and post-modern Bride of Chucky, which takes a big departure from the first three films in the franchise. What's it like to have Chucky team up with a lover and start to lean into the humor of the series? Listen in to find out what we think!

Well hey everyone! We're back and continuing our deep dive into the Child's Play series, better known as the place to see all of Chucky's infamous activities. This episode, we cut into 1991's Child's Play 3, which takes a slight departure from the last two films by jumping forward in time. We have an older, more teen-like Andy heading to military school, where, of course, Chucky has to show up to cause trouble.

Look at us! We did a new episode! Welcome to the first episode of our slasher retrospective for the Chucky series! You could also call it the Child's Play series, too, but we're going with Chucky since it's all about that adorably tiny and terrifying killer doll. On this episode, we break down the first in the franchise, focusing on our highs and lows in the viewing experience. Plenty of background characters to comment on, of course.

Part 6? Technically, but the Halloween series is feeling insecure about its age so here comes a title to cover that up. "The Curse of Michael Myers" proves to be far too true to the PodSlash team.

It's fitting that Myers is equally in our boat of being gone for some time. As we both return, we watch Michael take on his familial ties.

The continuation of the summer slasher series...continues!! This week we tackle the camp classic (HA!) "Sleepaway Camp" from 1983.

Let the summer slasher series begin!! Adam and Evan are fresh off of their restrospective look at the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise and ready for some good old summer slashing! The first film: "The Burning" from 1981. Old Cropsey (we think that's his name...but who knows) has been burned alive, and his revenge is to swap out the fun from his summer camp for fear. Listen in to hear how it all goes. As always, please feel free to hit us up on email, Facebook, and Twitter! Links below.

Texas Chainsaw 3D: The sequel to the original that pretends like the other movies don't exist, including the original! What is there to say about this movie? Adam and Evan found a way to talk about it for about an hour, so there must be something. Or not. Stylish Leatherface is fun, as is guessing the protagonists true age.
Director: John Luessenhop
Writer: Adam Marcus, Debra Sullivan, Kirsten Elms, Stephen Susco, Kim Henkel, Tobe Hooper
Starring: Alexandria Daddario, Dan Yeager, Trey Songz, Scott Eastwood, Tania Raymonde, Bill Moseley
The 2003 remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a mega hit for the franchise and brought new fans to Leatherface's lair. So to follow up, three years later, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning came into theaters to show audiences about the origins of Leatherface and his family. Is this a necessary or even good movie? Listen in to find out!
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
Director: Jonathan Liebesman
Writer: Sheldon Turner
Cast: Jordana Brewster, Taylor Handley, Diora Baird, Matt Bomer, R. Lee Ermey, Andrew Bryniarski
Nope, it's not Star Trek or Degrassi, it's the "next generation" for Leatherface and his ever growing family. This time around he has some A-list stars to give him some Tinsel Town street cred. Is the movie good because of it? Hmmm, take a listen.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation
Director/Writer: Kim Henkel
Starring: Renee Zellweger, Matthew McConaughey, Robert Jacks, Tonie Perensky, Joe Stevens and Lisa Marie Newmyer
Leatherface and the clan are back, or are they? What happens when a messy script meets the glorious golden chainsaw of Hercules? Maybe this movie. Listen in to find out!
Director: Jeff Burr
Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Ken Foree, Kate Hodge, William Butler, R.A. Mihailoff
SLASHER IS BACK.
As you may have heard in our last episode, we are moving back to our slasher sub genre study. We begin by filling in the holes of existing series we've started. Our very first podcast was Tobe Hooper's original "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", so what better than to pick up right from our roots! "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" came 12 years after the original, and with a different tone.
Director: Tobe Hooper
Starring: Dennis Hopper, Caroline Williams, Jim Siedow, Bill Moseley and Bill Johnson.
With the closing of the home invasion sub genre reviews approaching, the tension of knowing what will come next for the PodSlash crew is high. That was a very complicated sentence to incorporate the words "high" and "tension" to relate back to the title of the movie. Just listen to the podcast friends.
Film- High Tension
Director- Alexandre Aja
Starring- Cecile de France, Maiwenn
We are trudging through this home invasion series, and surprise, it's another foreign film! "Them" is the little movie that could, but do Adam and Evan agree on how successful it was? Listen in to find out!
Directed by: David Moreau, Xavier Palud
Starring: Olivia Bonamy, Michael Cohen
This week Adam and Evan review "The Strangers" 2008 with Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman. How do the three stalker killers stack up? How is it as a "realistic" horror? Listen in!
It's time for the grand daddy of home invasion films! Much like the precursor to the slasher genre that "Psycho" was, "Wait Until Dark" set the stage for what would later become known as the home invasion sub genre. Listen in to hear what Adam and Evan think of the classic!
Directed by Terrence Young
Starring Audrey Hepburn, Alan Arkin, Richard Crenna, Efrem Zimbalist Jr., Jack Weston, Samantha Jones, Julie Herrod
Production from Warner Bros.
What's that inside of that lady? Oh don't worry, its just a CGI baby. Listen in to the latest home invasion episode to hear Evan and Adam cut into belly deep story of "Inside".
Directed by Alexandre Bustillo, Julien Maury
Starring Alysson Paradis, Jean-Baptise Tabourin, Claude Lule, Dominique Frot, Nathalie Roussel, Francois-Regis Marchasson, Beatrice Dalle

Remake time! In our home invasion series, we take on the remake of Wes Craven's "The Last House on the Left" from 1972 (listen to the last episode to hear our thoughts on that original).
Directed by Dennis Iliadis
Starring Sara Paxton, Garret Dillahunt, Monica Potter, Tony Goldwyn, Aaron Paul, Riki Lindhome, Spencer Treat Clark, Martha MacIsaac
Produced by Wes Craven
Knock knock, ding dong, its the PodSlash crew here to invade your virtual homes with the next in our home invasion reviews. This weeks episode comes from the "horror master" Wes Craven and hater of bad luck Sean S. Cunningham. Their film "The Last House on the Left" left quite the impression on audiences, and we're here to talk about it.
Directed by Wes Craven
Starring: Sandra Peabody, Lucy Grantham, David Hess, Fred J. Lincoln, Jeramie Rain, Marc Sheffler, Richard Towers, Cynthia Carr
The home invasion reviews keep flooding in, and this week we tackle the indie darling "You're Next". A house full of yuppy people are attacked by masked killers that have a taste for the 80's slasher aesthetic. Little do they realize, one of those yuppies is a down to earth, B.A., get the job done fighter. Do Adam and Evan find this to be a solid recommend or just another copy? Listen in!
You're Next
