Better late than never! 

In this bonus episode finally getting around to the much hyped (something we talk about) Evil Dead Rise.

This one really hit a grey area for Trevor and I. 

And exploring that grey area is kind of a trip. 

What did you think of Evil Dead Rise?

Boils and Ghouls! 

Welcome to our 4 part series. "The ____ From Hell"! 

In this series we are kicking off with an absolute banger 

Single White Female

In The ____ From Hell we are going to explore a very unique sub genre of ordinary people who get caught up with the wrong person. 

In this block were going to be watching 
Single White Female
Pacific Heights
and a few more! 

Single White Female might also be one of the best theater experiences I have even been a part of. 

Seen at the Los Feliz 3 on 35mm with a sold out crowd. It was absolutely perfect! 

So to kick off our newest block I give you.

The Roommate from Hell - Single White Female 

Boils and Ghouls....we made it!! 

To be honest going though this franchise was not easy.

But boy am I glad we did it. For the longest time I have sat here and wondered what the Wrong Turn franchise had to offer. 

And did the expierment of watching it backwards pay off? 

Short answer. Yes! 

Walking backwards to the Mecca that is the OG Wrong Turn felt great. Seeing the love and craft go into our favorite hillbilly mutant freaks with characters who (aside from Henry Rollins in WG2) I was rooting for the entire time and was bummed when they got...well you know. 

If you have been with us for the entire journey (THAN YOU) or just now hopping on the Wrong Turn Express. Sit back and join us for the stunning conclusion of.... Watching Wrong Turn the Wrong Way!

I got to sit down with director Sylvia Caminer - director of the new thriller Follow Her. 

A film about an aspiring actress responds to a mysterious classified ad and finds herself trapped in her new boss's twisted revenge fantasy.

We take a deep dive into the films production, the curveballs that get thrown at you while making movies, Hitchcock inspiration, audiences reaction from around the world and so much more! 

I dont want to brag... but after this interview I get to meet one of the stars of the film.... Mr. Squeakers! The dashing feline co-star.

In this heart-pounding sequel, we find ourselves in the midst of a prison transport gone horribly wrong. A group of convicts, along with their guards, find themselves stranded in the deep, dark woods, where the one funny lookin bald mutant is doing all the heavy lifting. 

Join us as we explore the dark and dangerous world of horrors ugly stepbrother of a franchise!

Today, we're talking about a movie that takes us all the way back to the bloody beginnings...

The film Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings

In this prequel (which every film in this franchise is), we see how the family of cannibalistic hillbillies that we know and love came to be.

Was it Declan O'Brien's Empire Strikes Back?

I think so! 

A b-movie that takes place in the snow (his Battle of Hoth setting), with some excellent gore (like when Han thought they smelled bad from the outside), and it wouldn't be Wrong Turn without a little...well..you know.

In this flick, we follow a group of college students who are traveling to a music festival (wink, wink) in the small town of Fairlake, West Virginia (wink, wink). But little do they know, they're about to come face-to-face with a family of cannibalistic hillbillies who are looking for their next meal!

BIG SPOILER...NOBODY MAKES A WRONG TURN.

Hey there Boils and Ghouls! 

My goodness do we have a cool series to kickoff this week.

Introducing... Watching Wrong Turn The Wrong Way! 

Its kinda like back in the 90s when crash bandicoot teamed up with pizza hut to eat the za backwards.

But instead of eating an extra large stuffed crust....were noshing our way though a franchise neither of us has seen (aside from the first two).

So to kick things off were starting smack dab on the 2021....Remake? I really have a hard time calling it that since it has nothing that we loved from the first film. INCLUDING the main characters making a WRONG EFFING TURN!

Aside from that - its not a bad film.

So were curious to know from the listeners.

Are you a fan of this franchise?

Which one is your favorite?

Have you ever ate pizza backwards?

If you liked this episode consider giving a review on iTunes.

Or a follow on Spotify.

And make sure to follow us on Instagram, LetterBoxd and Twitter....while its still around.

See ya next week for Wrong Turn 6: Last Resort

Boils and Ghouls... This weeks episode Trevor and I happened to stumble upon two pieces of media that fit so well together its almost....scary? 

It's also a little bit like when Remy in Ratatouille ate a piece of cheese and strawberry at the same time.

This week we talk about one of my favorite video essay creators Kaptainkristian and his latest video The Melancholic Comfort of Late 90s Horror. I highly recommend spending an evening watching all of his videos. There is truly nobody else doing it like he is. 

We pair that with the short film on Shudder The Runner . It plays just like a long music video with little snippits of narrative. 

They both share this wavy popping in and out of reailty with very clever editing tricks that I honestly want to steal in my own projects.

What's your favorite John Carpenter film?

This week Trevor and Nick check off another flim on the "Nicks Mega Must See (Before he dies?) Movie List"! 

With the 1976 Carpenter classic Assault on Precinct 13.

This film had us talking about a buch of topics. From old school cinematic action - why you should skip the first season of most tv shows- to changing the way I view the first 20 mins of any film. 

Is this a life changing episode? Maybe! But only if you tell us via a 5 start review on our itunes right.....here! Halloweekly iTunes

Let me explain what is going on. I have been going to The New Beverly cinema and watching all sorts of classic films I have never seen before. 

So it got me thinking... What other classics have I not seen?

Thus the creation of NICKS MEGA MOVIE LIST. 

From School of Rock to 2001 to Julia and Julia to Peeping Tom to Boyz in the Hood to Misery.

There is quite a bit of brillant filmmaking I have not experienced.

So to kick things off I wanted to start with a David Cronenberg Videodrome.

With special effects by the legendary Rick Baker Monster Maker I knew I would be in good hands. 

Join us next week as we check off another film off my list with John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13!

Its the perfect time of year for a short horror story. Written and narrated by my best friend and partner for the past ten years! 

Light up a fall scented candle and get a hot cup of coffee and enjoy this short story that was inspired by Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. The Harvest King (what a cool title right)?

She also has a fantastic YA Horror novel she co-wrote titled Horror Hotel (writen under the name Victoria Fulton) out now. Available at most book stores and Amazon. Check it out! 

Flim and horror fans you are going to love this one. It's Alive! takes us through the chaotic days leading up the the start of production on Universal's Frankenstein. 

Author Julian David Stone and I talk the books orgin, Carl Laemmle Jr's fight to get this film made, Struggling actor Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi hot off the sucess of Dracula. With a question that could have altered film history as we know it...Who will play Frankenstein's monster?

It's Alive! is available for purchase on Amazon and most book retailers. Signed copies can be found on his website - www.juliandavidstone.com

Special guest Garin joins me this week at an amaing 35mm print of Friday the 13th: A New Beginning. It was not bad....but it wasn't great! 

Sam Raimi...do we need to say anything else?

David Cronenberg is back! For all the hype around people walking out of this movie. Its kinda relaxing? Its strange...but in the best way possible. Totally recommend. 

Ok so we need to be honest. We recently watched a handful of movies that on paper...we should have LOVED! But for various reaons these movies did not live up to the hype. There are a few things here and there that the films did that rocked - but overall they were pretty much duds. 

We had the pleasure of watching They Live for the first time on 35mm thanks to Cinematic Void! After watching John Carpenter's Vampires man was this a great rebound! 

***Screaming and Howling***

This week George and I review Robert Eggers latest - The Northman. 

A film loosely based on William Shakespeares Hamlet. With a good amout of gore, psychedelic trips and visceral actions scenes. We cannot recommend this movie enough to the standard bolt action horror fan.

This week our group voted for us to watch the 1988 Klassic - Killer Klowns From Outer Space! 

What a fun time this flick is - Still holds up with its creative set design - ungodly looking creatures and a cop who went through Korea and is tired of this sh!t

Our community really knows how to pick'em! George and I were blown away by this film. From the creature effects, the killer camera work and score by legend Harry Manfredini. There are a million things to love about this flick. Keep your votes and picks for the next film coming :) 

What more do we have to say! 

This week we review a Hammer Classic The Twins of Evil (1971). If you are in the mood for skeletons, foggy atmosphere and a knockout preformace from Peter Cushing... you will be in great hands!

James Gunn asked on Twitter "What's a single shot from a film that will haunt you forever?"

After posting this question on our page we read some of your answers and give ours! 

There is one image that haunts everyone....do you know what it is?

Coming in at 46% on Metacritic... Whew buddy was this movie divisive! And not for the reason you think. 

This is our first "documentary" in the How low can we go series - and could be the last. 

Coming in at 47% The Town Might have Dreaded Sundown...But we for sure didn't dread this movie! 

In Matt Reeves we trust. 

Coming in at 49% on Metacritic we review the 1994 flim Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Making us ask only one question. Have we gone too far?

This movie has the horror community SAWED down the middle. We landed on the enjoyed it side. What did you think?

Where we're going, we WILL need eyes to see! This week we revisit the 1997 classic Event Horizon in Glorious 35mm at The New Beverly. With a very special guest....our friend Garin! 

The first time in this run of How Low Can We Go that George and I disagree on a film. Hellraiser 3 is a Demon to some... Angel to others.

What do you think of the third installment of the Hellraiser franchise? 

Our review of Del Toro's remake of the classic 1947 noir Nightmare Alley. Better or worse that the original? The results may SHOCK you! 

Has our current 2022 dystopia made some past horror movies more relevant? We think 2005’s underrated Dark Water has a new story to tell.

Correction - this movie is from 2005! Not 2004.

In an age of disinformation, David Lynch’s film Mulholland Drive (2001) is more relevant than ever. Is this Lynch’s greatest film? Welcome to the sinister and winding path that is Mulholland Dr.

Also! Happy Birthday David Lynch!

Piranha 3D is a weirdly great entry in one of horror's weirdly great franchises. Take a bite of this episode and see how it tastes.

What were some of your favorites this year? Let us know in the comments below! 

Halloweekly reviews Night Of The Living Dead 1990 directed by Tom Savini for How Low Can We Go

Nightmare Alley (1947) is the greatest horror noir and it’s not even close. Our review tries to do justice to this legendarily bleak masterpiece.

Malevolent 2018 features Florence Pugh, a great plot device, and questionable ghost rules. How Low Can We Go? 55% and feeling good.

How low can we go this week? Underground, to seek out, revisit and review C.H.U.D. which hit us right between the eyes with perverse charisma.

Taste The Blood Of Dracula is the movie on tap for the 2nd episode of our podcast series “How Low Can We Go?” If you’ve ever wondered if Dracula is slightly carbonated, or what a Hammer Films Midnight Mass would look like, this is the episode for you.
