Black Christmas - The Killer is Inside the House!

Monday, December 22, 2025 • Duration 01:50:45

In this episode of Cult of the Living Dead, we unwrap all three versions of Black Christmas (1974, 2006, and 2019), tracing how one eerie holiday slasher keeps getting reborn for better and worse. The Dale, Cea, and Twan break down the original’s suffocating atmosphere, the 2006 remake’s mean-spirited excess, and the 2019 reboot’s polarizing reinvention. We dig into shifting themes of voyeurism, violence, and gender politics, and how each era’s fears bleed into the sorority house walls. From obscene phone calls to disturbing origin stories, this is a franchise defined by its legacies.

Silent Night Deadly Night - You Better Be Nice

Monday, December 15, 2025 • Duration 01:28:32

In this episode of Cult of the Living Dead, we unwrap the controversy and carnage of Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), the slasher that turned Santa Claus into a seasonal boogeyman. The Dale, Cea, and Twan dig into the film’s moral panic origins, its mean-spirited holiday nihilism, and how trauma and repression fuel Billy’s bloody path. We discuss the protests, the pulled ads, and why the film’s reputation often overshadows what’s actually on screen. Is it tasteless exploitation, or a bleak Christmas nightmare that still cuts deep decades later?

Jack Frost - Brrr its Cold in Here Must Be Some Killers in the Atmosphere

Monday, December 8, 2025 • Duration 01:07:46

In this episode of Cult of the Living Dead, we step into the icy nightmare of Jack Frost, where a small town is terrorized by a killer who returns in the most unlikely form: a sentient snowman born from a chemical accident. The Dale, Cea, and Twan break down how the film blends slasher tropes with dark humor, and why its low-budget absurdity somehow works better than it should. We dig into the film’s tone, the surprisingly good practical effects, and how its commitment to the bit turns a throwaway premise into a minor cult fixture. We ask whether Jack Frost is a scrappy winter horror must-watch, a so-bad-it's-good slasher, or simply a strange cinematic artifact that refuses to melt away.

Black Friday - I hope You Got This on Clearence

Monday, December 1, 2025 • Duration 01:03:52

In this episode of Cult of the Living Dead, we brave the apocalyptic world of Black Friday, where retail hell turns literal as a parasitic alien outbreak crashes the biggest shopping night of the year. The Dale, Cea, and Twan break down how the film recreates what it's like to work retail, and how the customers are the real monsters all along. We dig into the the underwhelming story and how not even Bruce Campbell could save this movie from the bargain bin. We ask whether Black Friday is a goofy creature feature, a workplace satire, or the world’s most cathartic therapy session for anyone who's ever worked a holiday shift.

Is TV the Real King of Horror?

Monday, November 24, 2025 • Duration 59:42

In this episode, The Dale and Cea dissect the rise of long-form terror and ask whether television has quietly dethroned film as horror’s true powerhouse. From prestige chillers like IT: Welcome to Derry, and The Haunting of Hill House, we explore how episodic storytelling reshapes fear. The crew digs into it in this new world of streaming. Have production companies placed their investments in your living room instead of the silver screen? Tune in as we decide if TV has already claimed the horror crown or if cinema still has some scares left in it.

Murder Party - Death by Art

Monday, November 17, 2025 • Duration 01:12:54

In this episode, we dive into Murder Party (2007), a Halloween-night fiasco in which one lonely guy’s attempt at socializing spirals into an art-school death trap. The Dale, Cea, and Twan break down Jeremy Saulnier’s film debut, a chaotic gathering of deranged creatives, duct-taped victims, and performance pieces that really kill. We dig into the film’s satire of artistic ambition, its gloriously messy practical gore, and its ridiculous premise. Join us as we break down the world’s worst Halloween party and uncover just how far these wannabe auteurs will go for “true” art.

Troll 2 - So Good its bad

Monday, November 10, 2025 • Duration 01:20:03

In this episode, we explore Troll 2 (1990), a movie so deliriously bad that it goes beyond mere failure to become a cult classic. Join The Dale, Cea, and Twan as they discuss the story of Joshua and his family’s disastrous vacation to Nilbog, a town of cheerful vegetarians who are secretly goblins. We’ll examine how a film made without trolls, coherence, or irony turned into a beloved cult favorite. From the infamous “They’re eating her!” scene to the legacy of Best Worst Movie, we ask: how did this green-goo fever dream win our hearts?

Join The Dale, Cea, and Twan as we break down the story of Alex, a 35-year-old video game tester forced to move in with his grandma and her eccentric roommates. We’ll explore how the film turns slackerdom into a story of redemption, where gaming, weed, and grandma collide in absurd harmony. Tune in as we unpack its cult appeal, juvenile genius, and why it remains a mark for Happy Madison.

Monday, October 27, 2025 • Duration 01:24:49

Join The Dale, Cea, and Twan as we break down a tale where hunger and desire blur into horror, where two women kill to live, and one demonic mask turns the human face into something even more monstrous. Tune in as we explore how Onibaba redefined the boundaries of folk horror and erotic dread. We’ll dig into its hypnotic visuals, the ritualistic rhythms of survival, and the way Shindō weaponizes shadow, sound, and silence.

High Tension - Horror's Greatest Twist?

Monday, October 20, 2025 • Duration 01:30:23

In this episode, we break down Alexandre Aja’s High Tension (2003), a ferocious entry in the New French Extremity movement that fuses raw brutality with psychological collapse. Join The Dale, Cea, and Twan as we dissect this blood-soaked slasher, a film that begins as a home-invasion shocker and ends as a hallucinatory study of obsession and repression. Tune in as we break down the film’s legacy. We’ll talk about its place in early-2000s horror, its controversial narrative pivot, and why High Tension still divides audiences two decades later.
