2025/07/03
Hey, remember Natalie and Arnold? Well, they’re back after a bit of a break, and just in time to revisit a ’90s slasher franchise that kicked off with a July 4th-set debut and is about to be given the legacy sequel treatment! I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (1997) and I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (1998) have appropriately lingered in the memory for many fans, but how do they hold up? Put on a sweater because it’s hot out, pack for a trip to the tropics (off season, so definitely remember the rain gear), and settle in for an episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE that’s sure to hook you!

2024/12/24
Natalie and Arnold present their annual celebration of all things festive and frightful, with a Very Video Nasty Xmas that covers two of the films from that infamous list, THE DORM THAT DRIPPED BLOOD (1982), and CHRISTMAS EVIL (1980)!

And remember, when you’re listening to this podcast, the only ghoul in the house…is YOU! NOTE: Arnold wanted to add that he thought the chimney sequence in CHRISTMAS EVIL was easily the most uncomfortable and suspenseful scene in the film. He forgot to say it while recording, and he just can’t let things go, so there you have it. Show Music: “Cemetery Dance” by The Vivisectors.
