Coraline - S6 E16

Another episode of Horror Café Podcast, where Eryka and Jackie start by catching up on the shows and movies they've been watching, inevitably get sidetracked, talk a little shit, and eventually get around to what's up.But this episode comes with a little something extra...So... WHAT'S UP? 🤔Well, that's the question, isn't it?You'll have to listen in to find out what Eryka and Jackie have up their sleeves this time.Grab your coffee, settle in, and join the conversation. Trust us, you're going to want to hear this one!

We have such sights to show you.

This week, Eryka and Jackie are heading to a place where the ghosts are real, the zombies don't mess around, and an entire generation of kids collectively realized..."Wait... Scooby-Doo can actually be scary?!"That's right—it's Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, the movie that betrayed decades of "the monster is just Old Man Jenkins in a rubber mask" and instead said, "Nah... these monsters are the real deal."Join the Horror Café crew as they revisit one of the greatest gateway horror movies ever made—a film that mixed spooky atmosphere, genuine suspense, and actual undead monsters into a Saturday morning cartoon that had kids sleeping with one eye open... and absolutely loving it.Because every horror fan has a first step into the darkness... and for a whole lot of us, it started with a talking Great Dane, a haunted island, and the shocking realization that this time, nobody was wearing a mask.Grab a Scooby Snack, keep an eye on the moon, and remember... sometimes the monsters are exactly who they say they are.

This week, Eryka and Jackie are unlocking the tiny, creepy door that introduced an entire generation of kids to the wonderful world of "Wait... what the hell did I just watch?"That's right... it's Coraline.Sure, it's animated. Sure, it's technically a "family" movie. But let's be honest... any film where a smiling woman wants to sew buttons over a child's eyes has absolutely no business being this unsettling.Join the Horror Café crew as they talk creepy stop-motion, nightmare fuel disguised as a children's adventure, and why Coraline remains one of the greatest gateway horror movies for kids ever made. It's spooky enough for young first-time horror fans, weird enough to haunt adults, and proof that sometimes the scariest monsters don't hide under the bed... they invite you to dinner.So grab your keys, don't trust anyone with button eyes, and whatever you do... don't open the little door alone. ☕👁️🪡

This week, Eryka and Jackie are asking the important questions... like, who looked at clowns and thought, "You know what they need? Alien technology."That's right—it's Killer Klowns from Outer Space, the cinematic masterpiece where cotton candy isn't a sweet treat, balloon animals are somehow a weapon, and your childhood fear of clowns gets launched into low Earth orbit.Is it horror? Is it comedy? Is it the result of someone finding a bag of mushrooms behind a carnival tent? Yes.Grab some popcorn (just make sure it isn't in a giant cotton candy cocoon), hit play, and join Horror Café as they talk about one of the weirdest, dumbest, most gloriously unhinged cult classics ever committed to film.🤡 Because sometimes the greatest threat to humanity... wears oversized shoes and honks its own damn nose.

This week, Eryka and Jackie dust off one of horror's original fever dreams: Carnival of Souls (1962).If you've ever wondered what would happen if an abandoned carnival, an existential crisis, and the creepiest organ music ever recorded had a baby... congratulations, this is your movie.It's weird. It's unsettling. It's artsy before artsy was cool. And somehow it manages to be more disturbing with empty buildings and awkward stares than most modern horror movies are with gallons of blood.So grab a drink, ignore that mysterious pale man standing across the room, and join Horror Café as they talk ghosts, isolation, and the cult classic that inspired generations of filmmakers to make audiences deeply uncomfortable.Join our Discord here!

This week, Jackie and Eryka wade into THRASH—the 2026 shark horror movie that asked a very important question:"What if a Category 5 hurricane wasn't enough of a problem?"A coastal town is getting ripped apart by a monster storm.The streets are flooded.The power is out.Everyone is trapped.And then the sharks show up.Because apparently Mother Nature woke up and chose violence.Featuring floodwaters, flying debris, questionable survival plans, and sharks that seem personally offended by the existence of human beings, THRASH delivers exactly what every shark movie fan wants: people making terrible decisions while large aquatic predators enthusiastically exploit them.Join Jackie and Eryka as they discuss hurricane-fueled chaos, shark-infested streets, over-the-top mayhem, and whether this creature feature swims with the big fish—or ends up as chum.

This week on Horror Café Podcast, Jackie and Eryka tackle The Meg—the movie that asked the important scientific question: "What if a shark was really, REALLY big?"In a world where billionaires fund terrible ideas, scientists ignore every warning sign, and Jason Statham decides that punching a prehistoric shark is a reasonable life choice, one oversized fish rises from the depths to remind everyone that maybe the ocean should've stayed unexplored.Join Jackie and Eryka as they discuss giant shark logic, questionable decision-making, impossible physics, and whether The Meg is a terrifying apex predator or just an angry sea bus with teeth.Because if there's one thing humanity never learns, it's that "there's something huge and deadly down there" is not an invitation.

This week on Horror Café, Eryka and Jackie tackle Weapons — a movie that answers the age-old question: "What if all the neighborhood kids collectively decided they were done with everyone's nonsense?"When an entire classroom of children disappears in the middle of the night, the adults are left scrambling for answers, making increasingly questionable decisions, and proving once again that panic is not a strategy.Join Eryka and Jackie as they unpack the mysteries, theories, nightmare fuel, and the growing realization that absolutely nobody in this town should be in charge of anything. Expect creepy kids, unsettling secrets, and enough dread to make you check on your family at 2 a.m.

This week on Horror Café Podcast, Jackie and Eryka discuss The Long Walk, 👟👟 the harrowing adaptation of Stephen King's dystopian novel that explores endurance, sacrifice, and the devastating cost of survival.In a future where one hundred teenage boys embark on a deadly competition with only one winner, The Long Walk transforms a simple premise into a relentless examination of human nature, friendship, and the lengths people will go when there is no way out.Join Jackie and Eryka as they break down the film's most powerful moments, its emotional impact, and how it captures the bleak tension that has made King's story a fan favorite for decades.
