Happy Spooktober! 🎃📺 This week on the All-American Spookshow, we’re turning the dial back to October 31, 1987 for WNUF HALLOWEEN SPECIAL (2013)! Presented as a lost VHS recording of a local television broadcast—complete with vintage commercials, news reports and plenty of technical difficulties—the WNUF crew is broadcasting LIVE from the infamous Webber House, the site of a gruesome double murder nearly 20 years earlier. What could possibly go wrong? Josh, Donny, Tiana & “Professor” Brian Smoak break down this unique found-footage horror movie, its incredible recreation of late-’80s local television, the seemingly endless fake commercials, Halloween atmosphere, scares, laughs and the increasingly bizarre events inside the Webber House. Does WNUF HALLOWEEN SPECIAL capture the feeling of staying up late on Halloween night watching something you probably shouldn’t? And is it destined to become an annual Spooktober watch? Grab some Halloween candy, adjust those rabbit ears and DON’T CHANGE THAT CHANNEL! 🎃 Welcome to SPOOKTOBER on the All-American Spookshow! 🎙️ ALL-AMERICAN SPOOKSHOW   New episodes every Monday at 6 PM Eastern! ⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: We’ll be discussing the entire movie! #WNUFHalloweenSpecial #WNUF #HalloweenMovies #Spooktober #FoundFootage #HorrorMovies #HalloweenHorror #HorrorPodcast #MoviePodcast #AllAmericanSpookshow Part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcasting Network!

🔪🇮🇹 EYE ON ITALIAN CINEMA: DEEP RED (1975) 🇮🇹🔪 The All-American Spookshow turns its eye toward Italy as we enter the blood-soaked, stylish world of Italian genre cinema! For this edition of Eye on Italian Cinema, we're diving into Dario Argento's legendary 1975 giallo DEEP RED (PROFONDO ROSSO). When jazz pianist Marcus Daly witnesses the brutal murder of a psychic, he becomes obsessed with uncovering the identity of the killer. But the deeper he digs, the more dangerous the mystery becomes—and somewhere among the clues is a horrifying truth that may have been staring him in the face all along. We're breaking down Argento's direction, the film's elaborate murder sequences, its unforgettable visual style, the iconic score by Goblin, and the mystery at the heart of one of the defining films of the giallo genre. We'll also get into what makes Deep Red distinctly Italian, its influence on the slasher films that followed, our favorite kills and moments, and whether this 1975 classic still deserves its reputation as one of the essential Italian horror films. 🩸 Turn out the lights, put on your black gloves, and keep your eyes open. We're going DEEP RED. 🎬 Eye on Italian Cinema 🇮🇹 Italian Horror • Giallo • Exploitation • Cult & Genre Cinema 🎙️ All-American Spookshow New episodes every Monday at 6 PM Eastern. #DeepRed #ProfondoRosso #DarioArgento #Giallo #ItalianHorror #Goblin #HorrorMovies #ItalianCinema #CultCinema #AllAmericanSpookshow Part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcasting Network!

This week on the All-American Spookshow, we’re diving into one of 2025’s most talked-about horror movies, WEAPONS! From Zach Cregger, the writer/director of BARBARIAN, WEAPONS begins with a terrifying mystery: at exactly 2:17 in the morning, 17 children from the same classroom get out of bed, leave their homes…and disappear. All except one. Josh, Tiana & Professor Smoak break down this twisted horror mystery starring Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Alden Ehrenreich, Benedict Wong and Amy Madigan. We’re talking about the film’s unusual structure, its biggest scares, strangest moments, performances, dark humor and THAT unforgettable final act. Where did the children go? What connects everyone involved? And does WEAPONS live up to the hype? ⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: We’ll be discussing the entire movie, so watch WEAPONS before listening if you don’t want anything spoiled! 🎙️ ALL-AMERICAN SPOOKSHOW New episodes every Monday at 6 PM Eastern! #Weapons #WeaponsMovie #Weapons2025 #ZachCregger #HorrorMovies #HorrorPodcast #MoviePodcast #AllAmericanSpookshow #JuliaGarner #JoshBrolin Part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcasting Network!

The devil is in the dirt this week on the All-American Spookshow! We’re heading back to 17th-century England for one of the defining films of British folk horror, THE BLOOD ON SATAN’S CLAW (1971). When a mysterious, deformed skull is unearthed in a small rural village, strange behavior begins spreading among the local children—and before long, superstition, witchcraft and something far more sinister begin taking hold. Josh, Tiana & Professor Smoak dig into this grim and atmospheric cult classic, including its unforgettable imagery, disturbing subject matter, Linda Hayden’s performance as Angel Blake, the film’s place alongside the great British folk-horror movies of the era, and whether THE BLOOD ON SATAN’S CLAW still delivers more than 50 years later. So grab your plow, stay out of the woods, and whatever you do…don’t dig up anything that looks like it should’ve stayed buried. 🎙️ ALL-AMERICAN SPOOKSHOW New episodes every Monday at 6 PM Eastern! #TheBloodOnSatansClaw #FolkHorror #BritishHorror #HorrorMovies #1971Movies #CultHorror #ClassicHorror #AllAmericanSpookshow #HorrorPodcast #MoviePodcast Part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcasting Network!
