Roll The Credits

While we have done this podcast for many years, there is no time we love more than the season of scary. This is why we wanted to take the time to look back over the decades and how horror has evolved just like we have with the times. With a bit of sad news as well, this will be our final episode for the time being while we figure out life and will unfortunately be taking a hiatus from this episode on. We want to thank each and every one of you for listening over the years, or even just once as this has been a truly fun experience to share with all of you. We thank you, we love you, and we will return!

In a world where you don't want to eat your vegetables, sometimes they eat back. An absolutely ridiculous film, we follow Mason Dixon assembling a team to take down sentient tomatoes who kill people. So over the top it feels like a fever dream, blending a Monty Python style of humor with a B-list style horror that feels like just a fun watch as we get closer to the horror holiday. If your looking for a fun time than check this one out because in the end, "its man vs vegetable".

When your watching a horror movie and everything is said and done, the monster is defeated or the entity has been suppressed, there always seems to be that one moment before the credits roll that gets you every time. Today we unbox not only the reason as to why horror films do this, but also dissect what the point is of it too. As always we would love to know your thoughts and listen in as we begin to fade to black then jump out of the podcast to get you one last time with jump scare stingers.

How much do you love your spouse? Enough to become one and form into a new being? In the directorial debut of Michael Shanks, we follow Tim and Millie as their rocky relationship full of past trauma and resentment lead them to a cult like town and after drinking from an eldritch pond begin to be magnetically pulled to each other. A great showcase of body horror, practical effects, and what we think is an homage to great horror films in the past to bring us a fun and suspenseful film towards the end of the year leading even us to write our last facebook post of "brb dying".

Our past doesn't always define us, and there are plenty of ways to change something if you don't like it. However, what if you do want to become an evil creature bent on taking revenge? In the world of horror monsters and villains, its how they were made that often times can scare us the most. Today we discuss the horrible beginnings that molded and shaped the knife wielding murderers we love on screen. As always let us know what you think and listen in as we go from normal to eldritch abominations with our favorite horror monster origins.

The world was a scary enough place already back in the 1932 for African Americans, but what if vampires were involved too? When two brothers return to Mississippi to escape their past, they are confronted with vampires bent on destroying their bar and turning them into creatures of the night. A beautiful story mixing horror, blues, and historical time frames that feels like a perfect blend of action and terror as we begin our spooky season once again. A must watch to sink your teeth into and dance the dance of fear, because "if you keep dancing with the devil, one day he's gonna follow you home".

In the 21 films that he has created, Tim Burton is responsible for some of the most recognizable and down right creepy characters in recent films. With so many to choose from, we decided to end the month with some of our favorites that he has created. As always, we would love to know what you think, and ask you to listen in while we're drawn in his style with some of our favorite Tim Burton characters

Are you bad at being dead? Don't know how to get get rid of those pesky "alive ones"? Well theres always the best bio-exorcist in the business. When Barbara and Adam die and are forced to see new people take their home, they turn to the craziest option. A classic film, and possibly the best work from Tim Burton has all of the tropes that made him a great director blending comedy, horror, and world building that will have you singing "Day-O" all night long.

"Die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain". What started out as a conversation about the relationship between Depp and Burton, quickly forms into a discussion on the potential of both actor and director. While both have made a career with each other, has unfortunately descended from the A-list status of the 90's. While we do not think both are bad or too far gone at this point, we just feel that it flows with the theme of this month and that is why we talk about "the rise and fall of Johnny Depp".

How far are you willing to go to get back something you love? In Tim Burtons debut, he takes on the film of Pee-wee Herman going across the country to find his stolen bike. With an outrageous style of film that can only be compared to a live action cartoon, Matt loves this film and Zach just plain hates it. Listen in as we argue for about 20 minutes because you have a dream, and we have a dream but ours is us rolling a donut of snakes in a big vest.
