Spooky Tuesday - A Horror Movie Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Spookies, we’ll ALWAYS know the joys of I Know What You Did Last 🤘 SUMMER 🤘, but it’s time to put this theme event on ice — especially since the third movie moves to a little ski town in the off-season. Not the final film in a trilogy so much as a bonus flick in the franchise, I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006) isn’t afraid to shake things up. And by that we mean, leave behind pretty much any familiar name or face outside of the infamous fisherman outfit. If you’re wondering what this slasher’s boogeyman is doing all the way out in Colorado, you’re not alone, but you’ll need to see it to believe it. And if you don’t believe it, well, we’re sharing our theories on the newest episode of Spooky Tuesday.

We've hit a big milestone, Spookies! It's officially our 200th episode, and we wanted to do something special to celebrate. We weren't sure what, though, so we left our movie selection up to our listeners and Patrons, and they decided to throw it back to Scary Movie (2000). The Wayans family's parody flick took on some of the major horror franchises of the '90s, and its inclusion in our line-up was timed perfectly to I Know What You Did Last 🤘 SUMMER 🤘. But we realized that it would be pretty much impossible to talk about this flick without also getting back into Scream (1996) — so we're instituting our first Spooky Take2sDay, too. Join us for a double feature as we compare and contrast these genre-defining films and wax a little nostalgic about our four year-long journey as a podcast.

This Pride Month, we've been messy. Toxic. Filthy. And now it's time to get a little... kinky. Grab your leather and your spikes, Spookies, because we're summoning the Cenobites with Hellraiser (1987). Written and directed by Clive Barker, the author of the original novella it was based on, this flick kicked off a major horror franchise — and it was the first to introduce audiences to the iconic figure now-known as Pinhead. We're here and we're queer all year round, but for the grand finale of our 2024 Pride lineup, we're exploring the subcultures this film has its roots in and maybe accidentally inventing some scenes of our own. Anyone out there down to become a bladder punk?

Did someone request a horror movie for girls??? When it comes to our latest scary flick pick, it’s literally in the name. On this week’s episode of Spooky Tuesday, Chelsea’s birth month movie is Tragedy Girls (2017), a touching tale of two besties with benefits if by benefits you mean a collaborative true crime project. If you’ve ever wished for a Scream alternate universe where Billy and Stu are modern day girlies, then this just might be the movie for you.

Legend has it that Urban Legend (1998) didn’t get a fair shake from critics back when it first came out — but we’ll be the judge of that here at Spooky Tuesday. With school back in session, it only felt right that we revisit the college campus cult classic on our newest episode. Packed full of turn-of-the-millennium era stars like Tara Reid, Joshua Jackson, Rebecca Gayheart, and Michael Rosenbaum and with plenty of CLEAR references to other famous horror franchises, this film is definitely worthy of a close study.

When we realized our 100th episode of Spooky Tuesday was just around the corner, we knew we had to pick something extra special to celebrate — something fun, something for the girls, something with a lil ✨razzle dazzle.✨ And given that our milestone movie *also* happened to fall on a Fifth Tuesday, a sacred institution, we knew that there was only one film for the job: Chicago (2002). With a star-studded cast, a banger soundtrack, and a generous handful of Oscars, this flick absolutely IS all that jazz, and our podcast lawyer is helping us break it all down.

Is it just us or did they step the gore up a notch for The Final Destination (2009)? Despite the distinct lack of Tony Todd, the powers that be were clearly trying to make something special out of the franchise’s 3D sequel, and they clearly wanted the series to go out with a bang (literally). Only, the thing about The Final Destination is that it’s not *actually* the final Final Destination, so where does that leave it? With all kinds of CLEAR (Rivers) references and iconic credits, though, this one is definitely still worth the watch, so help us keep Final Destination Summer going here on a new Spooky Tuesday.

Is there *really* anything you need to know about Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) other than the fact that Lee Pace is 6’5”? Honestly, in our opinion, that should be compelling enough to get anybody to see A24’s latest horror flick in theaters, but opinions after that may differ widely. On a new Spooky Tuesday, we’re talking all about the Gen Z mystery movie, but here are a few more selling points just in case you need them: Amandla Stenberg is so cute. Rachel Sennott is a gift. If you are our friend who hate listens to our podcast, this one is dedicated to you.

Who knew that sitting in the very first row could actually enhance the movie going experience? When it comes to Jordan Peele’s latest blockbuster horror, a seat that forces you to tilt your head all the way back is actually pretty on theme — and, as it turns out, our recent line up has been pretty on theme, too. On a new episode of Spooky Tuesday, we’re talking all things Nope (2022), including the CLEAR references to flicks like Final Destination 3, Tremors, and Jaws, because we definitely did this on purpose.

We’d like to tell you we don’t spend our entire Tremors (1990) episode talking about a single mom who works two jobs (who loves her kids and never stops), but if we did, we’d be lying. On our latest episode of Spooky Tuesday, we may have gotten a little swept up in the hype of a certain country music star turned silver screen siren. That said, we did also find some time to discuss OT3s, creative new curse words, the merits of pole vaulting, and new restaurant franchise ideas (oops, that one’s Reba again!).
