Bela Lugosi’s Undead – Détails, épisodes et analyse

We are so back!! HHN 33 is around the corner, and we are excited to kick off our new 2024 season of Bela Lugosi's Undead! 

Here's our hype meter for 2024 Halloween Horror Nights. It's been a minute since we've been on the feed, but we still love HHN and we cannot help ourselves. Keep close to this feed, we're coming back with our favorite horror films of 2024 so far in 2 parts, as well as recording our HHN rankings once Ryan flies into Orlando. 

We discuss all 10 houses, all 5 scarezones, and a handful of the extras at the event. We will be back this weekend with our ranking of the houses and scarezones Without further ado, let's get some rankings! 

It's been a crazy month since the end of our 2nd season, and we're back to kick off Season 3! A couple moves and a bout with Covid left us eager to return to our favorite topic. Halloween Horror Nights kicked off a couple weeks ago, but we've done a good job of avoiding it for the most part (Well, AJ went for a low-key night opening weekend, but only went for 2 houses). 

Here we are with our Hype Lists mere hours before our first HHN Night. Will we accurately predict where each of our houses will rank? Will the houses make us change our opinion on The Exoricst: Believer or Chucky? Can Dueling Dragons live up to our lofty goals as fans of the ride? Can Oddfellow break through as a new icon? 

We discuss all 10 houses, all 5 scarezones, and a handful of the extras at the event. We will be back this weekend with our ranking of the houses and scarezones and be back in the next few weeks with episodes on Nightmare on Elm Street: Dream Warriors, Prince of Darkness, and more! 

We return to the world of Evil Dead, a dark and upsetting series about demons torturing people beyond their mental limits. A nice, light movie to leave you deeply unsettled. Lee Cronin steps into the directing chair for the famed franchise. Taking over for Sam Raimi is a tall task, but Cronin delivers one of the most intense horror films of the last five years.

Get your puke bags and your indie film credentials out. Terrifier 2 shocked audiences with its over-the-top blood and gore. At the same time, it shattered expectations for what a slasher looks like in 2022. The cult of Terrifier and Art the Clown has taken off, helping Terrifier 2 secure four wins at the Chainsaw Awards in May. AJ/Alan and Ryan jump into the fray as they wrestle with a film they admire, even when it pushes beyond their comfort level.

Season 2 continues with a breakdown of late 2022 and early 2023 found footage hits! Skinamarink woke up the horror community, creating bipolar reactions from audiences (even on this podcast). Meanwhile, Deadstream was released to acclaim from horror fans but could not break through in the mainstream. Between the two films, we take a look at the place where found footage horror finds itself in 2023. Additionally, we have some tangent discussions about The Blair Witch Project, Outwates, and RRR's awesome music. Time stamps and links to our written reviews below!

We are back for Season 2 of Bela Lugosi's Undead! 

After a bit of a hiatus, the Bela Boys are back at it with an old episode that never got a chance to release in Season 1. Scream (2022) not only surprised us both with its ingenuity, but it made for an exciting new chapter in the Woodsboro/Ghostface story.

The audio was broken and seemed lost, but since we brought it back from the dead, we're giving you the release now. Expect episodes every Wednesday moving forward!

We are back after a short break! We get into the controversial Halloween Ends from David Gordon Green. Do you think Corey works? What do you think of Jamie Lee Curtis' farewell to the iconic Laurie Strode? Spooky Ryan and AJ break it down (and are mostly unhappy with the results).  We also drop some recommendations for some of 2022's best horror films. Quick hits on Death Loop, You Won't Be Alone, DeadStream, Speak No Evil, Fixation, Sinphony, and A Wounded Fawn. 0 - 41:00 - Review and Breakdown of Halloween Ends   41:00 - End - New Recommendations Follow AJ/Alan and Ryan on Twitter at @TheAlanFrench and @KeepItSpooky09.

We're back with Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal, Ms. Maggie Gyleenhaal, and a wonderful supporting cast! 

 

The teen melodrama turned horror sci-fi has become an internet favorite, especially of teen boys. Now its time to dive into the very dense, sometime nonsensical world of Donnie Darko.
