We are back together, refreshed, and talking about two of our favorite things: Friday the 13th and John Carpenter!

:13 Intro

We give an update on our health and our personal lives before quickly moving on to more important topics like old videos of John Carpenter at some convention Q&A.

3:50 Carpenter's Corner

We were alerted of an old clip of John Carpenter telling a fan to “F*** off” at some sort of Q&A event. We use this clip as excuse to defend Escape from LA, and talk about the relationship between fans and creators, and if it is ever okay to tell someone their work sucks.

Also, John is a massive Godzilla fan, and he is hosting a marathon of monster flicks for Shout Factory next month. We take a look at his choices for the movie marathon, grade them, and wish for the release of his early Godzilla fan films.

21:29 What is Happening with the Friday the 13th Franchise

There has been a lot of smoke surrounding a new Friday the 13th franchise recently, and we try to sift through it to see if there is finally some real movement happening with a new movie. We also discuss some of the recent attempts to get a new movie off the ground, what we want to see in a new movie, and which–if any– characters we want to see return. Finally, we go through a list of potential directors and decide if they are a good fit for the franchise.

Listen, we are doing the best with what we've got.

1:53 WEREWOLF BY NIGHT TRAILER

Marvel dropped a new trailer for their upcoming Werewolf by Night Disney+ special this past weekend at their D23 event. We talk about what was shown in the trailer, where we think the MCU is heading as it relates to horror; we also fancast members of the “Midnight Sons”, and share some of our favorite Marvel Comics horror stories.

32:00 SHUDDER'S 101 SCARIEST MOVIE MOMENTS

Tim has been watching the latest countdown of the “Scariest Movie Moments” of all-time, and wants to see if Willie can guess what the fine people of Shudder have chosen to represent each of the films on the list. We also dissect the choices made so far, and see if they align with our own.

46:26 WHAT WE'VE BEEN WATCHING

Willie has been watching Hoarders and Cobra Kai while Tim has been watching 13 Fanboy, What We Do in the Shadows, and Batman getting too involved in the latest season of Harley Quinn.
