S3E7 - Elements of Fear

The Trio of Terror is back with our first movie review!  Sure, we've done some bonus episodes about specific movies, but this time, we watch the movie Terrifier and review it immediately after watching it!  Spoiler alert, if you haven't watched the movie, we break it down from beginning to end and give our two cents on the whole thing.  We also get distracted by the movie The Babysitter (playing in the background during recording).  So grab your popcorn and listen to our review of Terrifier!

EXPLICIT CONTENT WARNING - LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED Happy New Year!!! That's right, you get the content warning AGAIN this week because our guest from last week, Frank, is BACK!  This week, he gets candid about his spiritual experiences with hallucinogens, but we take a different approach with this controversial topic.  We take the same approach we take with any other topic we attack: we want to increase our knowledge on the topic and share our own experiences.  So join us this week for the terrifying conclusion to Francopocalypse! Note: The Fists and Fears Podcast does not condone the use of illegal substances, but recognizes that these substances are used by people.  Instead, we encourage that people open up about things that they've experienced in their lives.  

EXPLICIT CONTENT WARNING - LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED Happy New Year!!! We feel we needed to add one extra warning for this episode, because for the first time ever, we have a live guest!  And the topics get....well we warned you.  Join us as Season 1 guest Frank joins us live and in the studio to chat with us about how our podcast has grown, what he thinks about some of the topics we've discussed, and brings all the R-rated humor we've come to expect from him.  He also tells us some funny stories from his own circle of friends!  So join us for Part 1 of this 2 part episode!

Scary movies are MEANT to scare.  But the type of movie that scares one person may not scare another.  On the same topic, what one person enjoys about horror movies may not be the same as what others might enjoy!  What are the elements of horror movies that we enjoy?  What parts scare us?  Listen to this new and improved conversation on some of the things that the three of us look for in horror movies.  

Are demons controversial? They can be!  Are demons scary?  They can be! Are we still gonna talk about them? Absolutely!  In this week's episode, we discuss the way that demons are portrayed in some of our favorite horror movies.  We also chat about our ideas and thoughts on what demons are in real life.  Join us and feel free to join the conversation on our social media (IG: @fistsandfearspodcast).  

If you were unknowingly thrust directly into a horror movie, what would you do?  Would you escape the thriller and make it to the sequel?  Or would you find yourself meeting your maker before the credits roll?  Join us on this week's episode where we deep dive into three horror movies and decide if we can achieve final girl status!

Does anyone around here have 2 hours of spare time to listen to us babble and watch a movie?  If the answer is yes, then we are glad you're here!  If you haven't seen V/H/S, the movie itself is ok, if you like found footage films and anthology films.  The whole series centers around VHS tapes that are found, and they contain crazy shit.  There's also a central storyline that no one cares about.  Join us as we slowly creep into a delirious lack of sleep by the end!

We decided to tackle a deep topic this week: aliens.  Join us as we discuss some theories about where aliens are, why we haven't seen them (or have we?), and what we believe.  This one really got us thinking and we hope it'll get you doing the same! And if you listen to us on Spotify, don't forget to go take our poll!

In our first bonus episode of the season, dedicated to one of our listeners who sent us the suggestion, we watch the Japanese horror classic Ringu and attempt to talk about the American version of the movie.  It is much more difficult to talk about one movie while watching another movie than we anticipated, but here we go!

Take a little trip down memory lane to the days before new Marvel movies and when 3 guys pulled fan theories out of the web to talk about.  The bros are back and this episode goes off the rails really quick!
