Wrapping up the stacked horror movie month of May, it's time to review BACKROOMS, the feature film from young director Kane Parsons. This movie has created a lot of buzz in the horror world, with some calling it an evolution in filimmaking and others calling it boring and pointless. No matter what your opinion is we got you covered! I'm joined by my friend Lexi yet again and she brings some harsh criticisms of the film with her. Can we meet in the middle on Backrooms or be doomed to wander the liminal hellscape of movie criticism? Tune in to find out! Oh, and we also found the fake stabbing incident at the 2010 premiere of My Soul To Take, so that's included at the end and that's worth tuning in alone.

It's time to discuss arguably my most anticipated horror movie of the year, Hokum. The latest from Irish director Damian McCarthy is getting rave reviews from critics and horror fans alike, so what did we think about it? I'm joined by my friends Justin and Brady of the ‪@EpicFilmGuys‬ podcast to break down this Irish nightmare led by the always delightful Adam Scott. Grab your psychedelic goat milk and crossbow, this one is alot of fun! Song: "City of the Dead" by Karl Casey ‪@WhiteBatAudio‬ #horror #hokum #horrormovies #adamscott #moviereview

Now that the dust has settled from Scream 7’s divisive release, it’s time for us to throw in our two cents! I’m joined by my friend Derrick (Blockbusted_Videos) of the  @DontBeDeadPodcast  to discuss the good, the bad, and everything in between! Scream 7 is a bit of an incoherent mess, but a fun mess with Kevin Williamson behind the camera and Neve Campbell running around, slinging lattes and wondering what the hell she ever did to deserve all this. Can AI and insane plot lines save this franchise? Tune in to find out!As always thanks for tuning, I truly appreciate the hell out of anyone that cares!

It finally happened- this movie broke our collective brains. I am joined once again by my friend Justin from Epic Film Guys to discuss the most dated, laughably bad horror movie in recent memory, Psycho Killer! Was this movie a complete waste of time or were there still some gems to be mined from this corny mess? Tune in as we discuss it all! The mask, the kills, the extremely corny plot, the outdated satanic references, all of it!

It's time to possibly rustle some jimmies, it's the return of Overrated/Underrated! My friend Derrick aka. Blockbusted_Videos from the  @DontBeDeadPodcast  is here to discuss it all! We kick things off with a ton of nu-metal talk, because, why not. Then, we get into Stranger Things, Weapons, Scream, VHS/VHS Fest, Alien, Possession, Robert Eggers, autographs, and so much more! 

It's time to revisit our favorite decade for some undiscovered (to us) 90's Horror bangers! I'm joined by my friend Derrick aka. BlockbustedVideos from the  @DontBeDeadPodcast  to discuss some serious gems spanning the entire decade. The assignment was simple: come up with a list of 5 movies we haven't seen, watch them, and talk about our favorites and least favorites. This episode is packed full of solid recommendations so grab a notebook and start a list!

Guillermo Del Toro wasn't playing around with this one! With 2025 drawing to a close, Frankenstein will surely be a top contender as movie of the year for many. with such strong performances by Jacob Elordi, Oscar Issac, Mia Goth, and that adorable old blind man. I'm joined by Lexi aka. cultofcraven from the ihatehorror podcast to get her thoughts on the movie, as well as explore her undying love for Wes Craven. This episode was absolute blast to record so I hope you enjoy it.

Actor Doug Tait has a very interesting career. He's played some of the most iconic horror villains in history and everything in between! Chances are, you've seen Doug Tait at some point without realizing it. I recently had the chance to interview Doug at the Tidewater Horror Convention in Virginia Beach so I was excited to dig into his storied career and learn a ton of new things along the way.   00:00-2:25 - Intro/ Rey Mysterio in FVJ? 2:26-4:25- Acting/ Directing First Film 4:26-6:03- Keeping Movie Props? 6:04-8:18- Freddy Vs Jason 8:19-11:05- Injuries on Set, "Legacies" 11:06-15:22- Robert Englund, Advice to Actors 15:24-25:00- Audience Q&A   Song featured: "Tonight He Kills" by Karl Casey ‪@WhiteBatAudio‬   #dougtait #halloweenkills #michaelmyers #freddyvsjason #stuntman
