When the Goo Attacks: The Blob, The Stuff, and Glowzies

Season 1 · Episode 15

Wednesday, April 15, 2026 • Duration 21:50

Send us Fan Mail

In this gooey triple feature, we dive into the sticky world of horror’s most disgusting invaders. We start with the 1958 classic The Blob, where a meteor crashes in small-town Pennsylvania and unleashes a growing, jelly-like alien that engulfs everything in its path—while skeptical adults refuse to believe a bunch of frantic teenagers.

Next up is Larry Cohen’s satirical 1985 cult hit The Stuff, in which a sweet, addictive white substance bubbling from the earth becomes America’s favorite zero-calorie dessert… until it starts taking over people’s minds and turning them into zombie-like “Stuffies” who live only to consume more of it.

We wrap with the wild, low-budget 2024 creature feature Glowzies, where an ancient extraterrestrial slime awakens in a remote Colorado canyon and transforms locals into glowing, vomit-spewing zombies. A ragtag crew of aging military vets and social media influencers must team up to stop the slimy apocalypse before it spreads.

From classic drive-in terror to corporate satire and modern gooey mayhem, this episode is packed with blob-based body horror, black comedy, and plenty of gross-out fun. Grab your hazmat suit (and maybe skip the snacks) for this one!

Kane, The Rock & Piper Slams – A Horror Wrestling Triple Threat

Season 1 · Episode 14

Friday, April 10, 2026 • Duration 28:24

Send us Fan Mail

This week on the podcast, we're diving headfirst into a bloody triple feature of muscle, mayhem, and the undead! We kick things off with See No Evil (2006), where a hulking, sadistic killer with a penchant for eyeballs turns a rundown hotel into a slaughterhouse. Then we load up with Doom (2005), the video game adaptation that brings first-person hell to Mars as a squad of marines (including Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) battles demonic hordes in a pulse-pounding, gore-soaked sci-fi nightmare.

We close out the carnage with Pro Wrestlers vs. Zombies (2014), the gloriously ridiculous B-movie where faded wrestling legends face off against a zombie outbreak at an abandoned arena — complete with chair shots, suplexes, and brain-eating action.

Expect over-the-top violence, questionable decisions, and plenty of "what were they thinking?" moments. Grab your popcorn (and maybe a chainsaw), because this episode is pure horror trash gold.

This week on the podcast, we dive into the chaotic, creature-feature mayhem of the 1980s with a triple threat of furry fiends and pint-sized terrors. From the mischievous mogwai that spawn slimy, scaly Gremlins in Kingston Falls, to the razor-toothed Critters that crash-land in Grover's Bend, and the sleazy, low-budget Hobgoblins that turn a movie studio into a nightmare— we're celebrating the wild, rubber-suited monsters that defined a generation of horror-comedy.

We explore cornfield horror classics and chaos: Stephen King's Children of the Corn (1984), where fanatical kids sacrifice adults to a demonic entity in the rows; the fresh slasher Clown in a Cornfield (2025), with mascot Frendo brutally "cleansing" a dying town's youth; and the gloriously absurd Sharks of the Corn (2021), featuring Great Whites prowling Kentucky stalks in a cult-fueled fever dream.

This episode unleashes the tiny terrors! We dive into three murderous takes on leprechaun lore:

Leprechaun (1993) – Warwick Davis as the gold-obsessed killer terrorizes Jennifer Aniston and friends in a gloriously cheesy '90s slasher-comedy classic.
Red Clover (2012) – A bloodthirsty leprechaun revives an ancient curse on St. Patrick's Day, turning a small town into a slaughterfest (aka Leprechaun's Revenge).
Unlucky Charms (2013) – Aspiring models compete for a fashion gig but battle mythical killers, including a mischievous leprechaun-like Farr Darrig and his monstrous crew (aka Miscreations).

Dream Demons Around the World: From Freddy to Shakaal to... That Italian Guy

Season 1 · Episode 9

Saturday, March 7, 2026 • Duration 31:00

Send us Fan Mail

This week we dive into Wes Craven's horror classic A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) — the film that made Freddy Krueger a legend with his dream-invading kills, bladed glove, and nightmare logic that still terrifies.

Then we check out two wild international knock-offs: the sleazy Italian mess Night Killer (1990), a chaotic Freddy clone with rubber masks and bizarre twists, and Bollywood's colorful Mahakaal (1993), featuring a steel-clawed dream demon, black magic, and college kids facing vengeful spirits.

Join me for quick comparisons and takes on the original vs. its gloriously weird imitators.

Sweet dreams... or not.

Scream Queens & Virgin Targets: From Woodsboro to Cherry Falls Mayhem

Season 1 · Episode 8

Sunday, March 1, 2026 • Duration 31:11

Send us Fan Mail

We’re diving into slashers that flip the script. First up: Wes Craven’s Scream (1996)—the meta classic that revived the genre with Ghostface, the famous “rules” speech, self-aware humor, and real scares.

Next, the underrated Cherry Falls (2000) starring Brittany Murphy: a killer hunts virgins in a small town, hilariously reversing the usual “sex = death” trope.

Finally, the fun indie anthology Halloween Horror Tales (2018): killer clowns, twisted scream-queen interviews, deadly plants, and small-town murders in bite-sized Halloween chills.

Meta, subversive, and scary—grab your phone and join us! 🎃🔪

Capes, Coffins, and Cowboys: Tracking Dracula Across Decades

Season 1 · Episode 7

Sunday, February 22, 2026 • Duration 28:52

Send us Fan Mail

This episode sinks its teeth into three wildly different Draculas across horror history:

Dracula (1931): Bela Lugosi’s hypnotic, cape-draped classic that set the vampire standard—elegant, chilling, and unforgettable.
Horror of Dracula (1958): Christopher Lee’s fierce, sensual Hammer reinvention, with Peter Cushing’s Van Helsing in hot pursuit—bold, bloody, and Technicolor Gothic.
Billy the Kid Versus Dracula (1966): The gloriously absurd B-movie where John Carradine’s Count heads West and faces off against a gunslinging Billy the Kid. Fangs vs. six-shooters in pure drive-in camp.

From Universal elegance to Hammer ferocity to cowboy-vampire chaos, we cover the Count’s evolution with trivia, scares, and laughs. Short, sharp, and full of bite—tune in!

Bloody Valentines: Slashers of Love Gone Lethal

Season 1 · Episode 6

Sunday, February 15, 2026 • Duration 24:39

Send us Fan Mail

This Valentine's Day, we're skipping the romance for the red stuff. Join us as we dissect three holiday-themed slashers that turn love into lethal payback.

We kick off with the 1981 classic My Bloody Valentine: In a depressed mining town, young locals throw a forbidden Valentine's dance, awakening (or so the legend goes) the pickaxe-wielding killer Harry Warden after a tragic mine disaster. Gritty atmosphere, brutal kills (many cut by the MPAA), and a subversive edge make this cult favorite stand out.

Next, the early-2000s teen slasher Valentine (2001): Years after humiliating an awkward boy at a middle-school dance, a group of former mean girls (including Denise Richards and Katherine Heigl) are hunted by a masked Cupid killer with a nosebleed signature. Dismissed on release, we revisit its revenge plot and hidden twists.

Finally, the low-budget gem Lovers Lane (2000) (aka I'm Still Waiting for You): Thirteen years after a cheating couple is hook-murdered on a secluded lane, the killer escapes a mental institution just in time for Valentine's. Teens—including the victims' kids—party at the infamous spot, becoming targets in a twisty revenge tale full of red herrings and gory kills.
