Halloween month keeps rolling on Spitball Media! This week Jon, Shaheen, and B-Show Brian wrap up their horror-by-decade countdown with the back half of the 90s, covering 1996 through 2000 in five-year chunks. It's a stacked run that includes cult gems like The Dentist, Thinner, Peter Jackson's The Frighteners, From Dusk Till Dawn, and The Craft, before diving into deeper cuts like Event Horizon, Cube, Mimic, The Manson Family, and Jim Van Bebber's brutal indie filmmaking. The guys keep going through some of the most beloved (and bizarre) horror of the late 90s — Vampires, Blade, Bride of Chucky, Phantoms, and The Prophecy 2 — before landing on millennium-era favorites like The Cell, eXistenZ, Audition, Battle Royale, Ginger Snaps, Final Destination, and Pitch Black. Expect plenty of tangents about practical effects, cult followings, VHS box art memories, and arguments about which sequels are actually worth watching. As always, there's some off-topic banter to kick things off (vapes, cigarettes, and Shankies included) before the guys lock in for a deep, nostalgic ride through five years that shaped modern horror. Next week they're looking ahead at upcoming horror trailers, so stay tuned — and don't forget to check out the Patreon for bonus episodes and exclusive content.

Jon, Shaheen, and B-Show Brian are back for round three of their horror movie retrospective, diving deep into 1991-1995 as Halloween season rolls on. Before the movie talk kicks off, the guys catch up on B-Show's trip to a surprisingly packed Weird Al concert, complete with Storm Troopers, Darth Vader, and a full encore of fan favorites. Then it's into the horror deep cuts — from Full Moon classics to cult gems to genre staples. The guys also spotlight some unexpected picks, plus, plenty of talk about rare physical media, Vinegar Syndrome and Arrow Video releases, and way too many Candyman Blu-rays in one collection. Whether you're after practical-effects monster movies, slept-on thrillers, or just want to hear grown men argue about Roger Corman's filmography, this episode has a little bit of everything as the countdown to Halloween continues. Next week: 1996-2000.

Happy Halloween Season! Jon, Shah, and B Show continue their horror deep-dive with Part 2 of their Halloween countdown, covering 1986 to 1990. This era gets wild fast — from arthouse serial killer cinema to killer robots, demon babies, Satanic metal, and more Troma trash than any human should legally consume in one sitting. Expect genuine debates, laugh-out-loud tangents, and a shared love for practical effects, obscure VHS covers, and movies that absolutely should not work as well as they do. Stick around — next week they tackle 1991-1995, and based on this episode, it's gonna get even weirder. #Halloween #HorrorMovies #CultClassics #PodcastDiscussion #80sHorror #90sHorror #PracticalEffects #HorrorCommunity Join us live every Wednesday Night at 7:30 pm, eastern 🎧 Listen to the Full Audio Podcast Friday mornings on all podcast platforms 🌐 All Our Links linktr.ee/spitballmedia 💥 Bonus Content + Exclusive Episodes: patreon.com/spitballmedia --- 📱 Follow Us on Socials Twitter: @Spitball_media Facebook / Instagram / YouTube: @spitballmedia 👥 Follow the Hosts Jon: @iamjondraper Shah: @planet.mondo // @nuclearheat Brian: @bshowbrian

This week on Spitball Media, we're kicking off a month-long Halloween deep dive, taking a decade-by-decade trip through horror history leading up to 2000. First stop: 1980-1985, a stretch the guys argue might be the single greatest run in the genre's history — and they make a pretty convincing case for it. Jon, B Show Brian, and Shah (battling the flu but soldiering through) go year by year pulling from their own shelves of physical media, hitting genre-defining giants alongside deep-cut picks. Expect plenty of 4K/Blu-ray cover talk, debates about which remakes actually hold up, some Stephen King adaptation rabbit holes, and a lot of nostalgic detours about what it was like growing up renting these movies when horror was still considered taboo. Also in this episode: Patreon news, a new Physical Media Advocate magazine cover reveal, and Little Debbie pumpkin delights discourse. Stick around — 1985 to 1990 is coming next week.

Halloween season is here, and the Spitball Media crew is celebrating the only way they know how — by ranking horror sequels. Following up last week's remake episode, Jon, Shaheen, and B-Show Brian dig into the follow-ups that actually lived up to (or surpassed) the originals. The guys debate what actually makes a great horror sequel — familiar faces vs. fresh direction, bigger budgets vs. slower burns, and why the second entry in a franchise so often outshines the first. Expect deep-cut picks getting their due. Along the way there's talk of AI restorations ruining classic 4K releases, Rocky vs. Rambo-style franchise escalation, childhood VHS rental memories, and a tease of a possible bracket-style format for October. Grab your Halloween candy and settle in for a horror sequel deep dive.

This week the crew dives into the (dreaded) R-word: remakes. Fresh off last episode's hot takes on horror, Jon, Shahin, and B-Show tackle what actually makes a remake worth watching — is it faithfulness to the source, better effects, or just "don't make it worse"?  From there it's a deep dive through decades of horror remakes, cult favorites, and forgotten gems, and some genuinely obscure picks. Naturally, things get sidetracked (a hilarious Google robot-check meltdown included), chat weighs in with their own picks, and the hosts don't hold back on the ones that missed the mark — looking at you, Nightmare on Elm Street and 2018's Black Christmas. They close things out with wishlist remakes they'd actually be excited for and debate whether Hollywood should really keep raiding the cult classics or leave well enough alone. Grab some popcorn, argue with us in the comments, and let us know your favorite (or most hated) horror remake. #HorrorMovies #Remakes #HorrorPodcast #CultClassics #MovieTalk #HalloweenSeason #HorrorCommunity Listen Link- https://www.spreaker.com/episode/horror-remakes-spitball-media-podcast-09-16-2026--75184765 Join us live every Wednesday Night at 7:30 pm, eastern 🎧 Listen to the Full Audio Podcast Friday mornings on all podcast platforms 🌐 All Our Links linktr.ee/spitballmedia 💥 Bonus Content + Exclusive Episodes: patreon.com/spitballmedia --- 📱 Follow Us on Socials Twitter: @Spitball_media Facebook / Instagram / YouTube: @spitballmedia 👥 Follow the Hosts Jon: @iamjondraper Shah: @planet.mondo // @nuclearheat Brian: @bshowbrian

This week on Spitball Media, Jonn and B-Show (Shahin's out getting dental work done) and decide to go full hot-take mode on horror. No prep, no filter — just years of movie-watching opinions that might get them yelled at in the comments. They dig into whether 2025 has been a genuinely great year for horror, and get into it with a Gen Z take on Texas Chainsaw Massacre vs. its 2003 remake before spiraling into some genuinely spicy stuff: Lee Cronin's The Mummy landing on a top-five list, Smile 2 beating the original, Dawn of the Dead's remake outclassing Romero's version, Exorcist II getting more love than part III, and a full-on confession about not vibing with giallo classics like Suspiria and Argento's catalog. Terminator's modern sequels, Freddy vs. Jason, Hellraiser (2022), and Nightmare on Elm Street 3 all get put on trial too. Things get more serious when the guys talk about "elevated horror," subtlety vs. spoon-feeding in modern films, and where they think the genre's political messaging is heading with big upcoming properties like Crystal Lake and Carrie. Plus: viewer-submitted hot takes flood the chat, practical effects vs. CGI gets debated, and there's a surprising amount of talk about poutine, Canada, and Bane breaking Batman's back. Grab some popcorn (or poutine) and see how many of these takes make you scream at your screen. Join us every Wednesday at 7:30 pm eastern.

Is Obsession Overrated? | Deep Dive Is Obsession actually a great horror film—or have we collectively given it too much credit? Tonight on Spitball Media, we're taking a deep dive into Obsession and breaking down what works, what doesn't, and whether the film ultimately lives up to its reputation.

We'll discuss: What Obsession gets rightWhere it falls shortWhether the central obsession worksCharacters & performancesHorror and psychological elementsMissed opportunitiesWhether it's underrated or overratedWhat we'd change SPITBALL MEDIA — Horror, movies, and everything worth arguing about. #Obsession #HorrorMovies #HorrorFilm #MovieReview #HorrorReview #MovieDeepDive #SpitballMedia Join us live every Wednesday Night at 7:30 pm, eastern 🎧 Listen to the Full Audio Podcast Friday mornings on all podcast platforms 🌐 All Our Links linktr.ee/spitballmedia 💥 Bonus Content + Exclusive Episodes: patreon.com/spitballmedia --- 📱 Follow Us on Socials Twitter: @Spitball_media Facebook / Instagram / YouTube: @spitballmedia 👥 Follow the Hosts Jon: @iamjondraper Shah: @planet.mondo // @nuclearheat Brian: @bshowbrian
