Hang on to your VCRs millennials, because we're cursing you to die in 7 days! No, not business days... DAYS days!
On this episode, we review the original Japanese 1998 Ring along with the American remake The Ring released in 2002. Did this movie scar you as a child? Because it sure did that to us! Let's jump into the well together and see if we can't catch a glimpse of Samara. But then again, just turn to your TV...

Episode 15 - Sinners (2025)

Thursday May 15, 2025

Thursday May 15, 2025

Sinners, you say? Well, if sinning looks this intriguing with Michael B. Jordan at the helm, perhaps we should all reconsider our life choices (just kidding... mostly!).
Join us as we explore the film's themes, from colonialism to music and ancestry, all while being thoroughly entertained by the sheer star power and terrifying monsters on screen. Was it a deliciously wicked ride, or did it leave us feeling more saintly than sinful? Tune in for a review that dives just deep enough into the film's playful darkness.

Buckle up buttercups, because this week on the show, we're diving headfirst into the chaotic premonitions and spectacularly gruesome demises of Final Destination (2000)! Remember the sheer panic when Alex Browning had that terrifying vision on Flight 180? We do, and we're breaking down every near-miss, every ridiculously elaborate death sequence, and questioning whether we'd actually believe a random teenager screaming about impending doom.
So grab your popcorn (just maybe don't sit under anything precarious while you listen) and join us for a nostalgic and slightly morbid trip back to the year 2000, where death had a seriously twisted itinerary. Was Final Destination a genuinely scary horror flick, or just a gloriously over-the-top exercise in suspense and splatter? Tune in to find out!

Ever wished your TV could give you a hug? 📺 Or maybe... something a little weirder? 😉 This week, we're tuning into the delightfully disturbing world of Videodrome! Join us as we tiptoe through a twisted tale of video signals, bizarre body modifications, and a reality that's just a little bit glitchy. We'll try to keep our heads (and our perspectives!) straight as we explore Cronenberg's cult classic. It's gonna be strange, it's gonna be surreal, and who knows, we might just find the New Flesh...or at least a really comfy couch. Won't you join our weird and wonderful watch party?

We dove headfirst into the found-footage nightmare that is Creep (2014), where a seemingly innocent videography job spirals into something deeply unsettling. Join us as we unpack the awkward tension, the unsettling smiles, and the lingering question: just how weird is Josef? And don't forget the Peachfuzz hip thrusts! Tune in for our spoiler-filled discussion.

This week, we're facing the Lamia in Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell! We're breaking down the film's over-the-top scares, comedic moments, and that shocking ending. Did Raimi recapture his 'Evil Dead' magic, or did this film leave us feeling cursed? We discuss the practical effects, the performances, and- wait, what is that?! Is that THE BABUSHKA OF DOOM?!

Hello, Clarice… and welcome to another terrifyingly terrific episode of Scary Movie Nights! This week, we're dimming the lights, grabbing our Chianti, and investigating the cinematic masterpiece that is "The Silence of the Lambs." Prepare to be captivated (and maybe a little bit creeped out) as we dissect the delicate dance between rookie FBI trainee Clarice Starling and the disturbingly charming cannibalistic serial killer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. We'll be chewing over everything from the film's nail-biting suspense and its groundbreaking portrayal of female strength to the truly chilling performance of Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal the Cannibal himself.
So, lock your doors, turn up the volume, and get ready for a night of psychological thrills and maybe a few screams. It's gonna be a baaaad time… in the best way possible!

Ever wondered what it would be like to be trapped in Antarctica with a shape-shifting alien that can imitate your best friend? Of course, we all have!
