This is it. The big one. After many outside factors trying to take us down throughout most of December; we are finally here to chat about the year that was 2023.

We then give out our individual awards such as Best Death and see just how much TV dominated this year. And ending the show we have a big announcement regarding the future of this very podcast.

With the final show of the year fast approaching we have time to squeeze in this very bizarre film we spoke about on the show many years ago.

Elsewhere this week; Thanksgiving and Saw are both getting sequels which makes us happy. Robert Eggers’ Nosfaratu gets dated for next Christmas.

This latest entry in the Hell House LLC franchise dropped on Shudder over the Halloween period and we’re glad we’re finally getting a chance to discuss it. We’ve really enjoyed this low budget found footage series over the years and were curious to see what this first spin-off film would be all about. Elsewhere this week; the only thing worth talking about is the seemingly collapse of Scream 7 and what this means for the future of the franchise. It’s a doozy and we have a lot of opinions about the whole situation.Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor is available on Shudder worldwide nowFollow us on Twitter @SHBPodEmail us: [email protected]**Please take the time to review & rate us on iTunes or your podcast service of choice.

After a little break we are back with a film we’ve waited 16 years for. After a fake trailer as part of the Grindhouse experience back in 2007; we’ve long wondered what a feature length version of that ridiculous trailer would look like. Well wonder no more as we finally get to see if it was worth the wait or if it should have stayed as a silly fake trailer. This is also remarkably the first time we’ve ever covered an Eli Roth film for the main discussion on the podcast and it’s long overdue. Elsewhere this week; Black Mirror will be returning to Netflix. Mike Flanagan’s next film is NOT a horror film? And ending the show we discuss our love of Tremors and Rob Zombie. Thanksgiving is available in cinemas worldwide nowFollow us on Twitter @SHBPodEmail us: [email protected]**Please take the time to review & rate us on iTunes or your podcast service of choice.

It’s always a special occasion when we get to cover Mike Flanagan for this show and this one is no different. After The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass; surely he can’t produce another masterpiece as he bids farewell from Netflix for pastures new. We try to cover everything this show has to offer but we could honestly talk about it for weeks. Ending the show we talk about the greatest physical media release we've ever purchased and the latest episode of Chucky continuing to deliver the thrills this season.  The Fall of the House of Usher is available on Netflix worldwide nowFollow us on Twitter @SHBPodEmail us: [email protected]**Please take the time to review & rate us on iTunes or your podcast service of choice.

V/H/S made its glorious return a few years ago after way too much time away and it’s hard to believe we’ve now had six entries in this fantastic found footage franchise. Shudder has given this franchise a second life and we’re back to chat about all things video tape with an 80’s twist. We also give our thoughts on the new sci-fi film The Creator and debate what are the best foreign language horror films of all time. V/H/S/85 is available on Shudder worldwide nowFollow us on Twitter @SHBPodEmail us: [email protected]**Please take the time to review & rate us on iTunes or your podcast service of choice.

The big horror franchise returns just keep on coming. Hot on the heels of an actually good Saw film (we still can’t believe it either) now sees the return of one of the most influential horror films of all time. We’ve long been fatigued with this sub genre but with a strong trailer we were willing to give this film a go. Was it worth it? Let’s find out. We also chat about the return on the small screen of Chucky who continues to fill our hearts with joy seeing this little guy once again. The Exorcist: Believer is available in cinemas worldwide nowFollow us on Twitter @SHBPodEmail us: [email protected]**Please take the time to review & rate us on iTunes or your podcast service of choice.
