Horror Hut – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Jaci & Luke return once again to the bountiful fields of Stephen King's oeuvre, this time taking a short trip up to the Overlook Hotel. That's right, things are going to be drenched in blood, pretty creepy and some might even say... a bit splintered. Topics include: timey-wimey shenanigans, the accuracy of effects makeup, how much money you'd have to make to do this gig, and is Ewan McGregor psychic?

Jaci & Luke have something extra special in the works, so for now, enjoy this re-release of the Hanksy era episode on Carrie! Catch Horror Hut next time for a super spooky episode -- we promise it'll be a good time!

Original Description:

Welcome back to Hanksy Panksy Horror Hut, where we watch movies referenced in Scream until Sam returns from parental leave! This week we're covering 1976's horror classic Carrie, dipping our toes for the first time into the Stephen King universe. Ride along as we discuss: prom night shenanigans, paint bucket injuries, gratuitous nudity, car explosions and more genre fiction definitions.

Jaci & Luke are digging into one of their all-time favorites with the spectacularly Halloween-focused Trick 'r Treat (2007). Carve a pumpkin and put on your fanciest costume, we're hitting the town for some serious candy snatchin'! Topics include: The intersection of fun and horror, cool ways to chop up a plot, anthology movies, and the most adorable way to create a slasher villain.

Head into the woods of New Jersey this week with Jaci & Luke as they dissect the 1980 classic Friday the 13th. Prepare to cavort with some camp counselors and avoid the lake at all costs. Topics this week include: the knockoff ripple effect, what happens to a flick without a plot, Kevin Bacon, copious comparisons, and one particularly bad Airbnb.

Original Description:

Throw on a Captain Kirk mask and drive on down to Illinois, this week the Horror Hut (a podcast within a podcast) is covering Halloween! Yes, that's right folks. Michael Myers is taking center stage, with topics including: teenage baby sitting hijinks, a very special theme party for adults, buttered up clothing, hangin' with Jamie Lee Curtis, and the supernatural origins of evil.

Jaci & Luke are finally digging into the werewolf sub-genre, this week taking a look at 1981's The Howling. Awoooo!! Head on over to The Colony and bring a shotgun full of silver bullets, because this time they're talking: Contrasted werewolf themes, the Pale Man for dogs, streaming service woes, legally distinct Blockbuster quotes, and how to write a spookier flick.

Jaci & Luke shoot for the stars and get to terraforming with this week's episode on 1986's Aliens, directed by the ever-present James Cameron. Jump in a cryosleep pod and hit an alien queen with a forklift, because this week we're talking: Military horror, a particular fear of Bigfoot, Stranger Things, movies that give you anxiety and the Alien franchise at large.

Jaci & Luke are taking a trip to a rustic farm down Texas way, this week taking a look at 2022's slasher flick, X.

As promised, here's the Ghostface Glossary!

Jaci & Luke had a hankering for vintage horror, so this week they're taking a look at 1973's The Exorcist. It's an absolute classic with discussions including: practical effects, not jumping to psychiatry, possession horror as a sub-genre, movie pacing now-versus-then, television as compared to the big screen and why The Exorcist stands up after all these years.

Jaci & Luke return, this time taking a look at the horror-comedy classic that is Shaun of the Dead (2004).
