***CONTENT WARNING*** Today, we dive into some far east extreme horror, which means listeners should use caution with this one. The feature length debut of Canadian filmmaker Rob Jabbaz, who enters the genre with an unrelenting image of grotesque violence all done with a smile on it's face. Enjoy.

Wes Ross is a comedian/podcaster. Isabel Mathes is a singer/actor. In this episode, they join Justin to talk the Wes Craven classic that sliced the Slasher sub-genre wide open. Neither of them had seen the movie before (weird right?), so enjoy hearing some completely fresh takes on the iconic film that currently has its 4th sequel in theaters now.   

In this episode, we travel underground and learn to speak demonic with Dimwos. The buddies tackle a little underseen gem from 2013. Not related to The Queen's Gambit, in case you were wondering.

Christmas time has come around, and once again we are talking holiday horror. Since our main course this week is only really half a movie we haven't already done, we threw in an appetizer. An early work from the director of Hobo with a Shotgun about murderous Christmas trees, and a sibling story about Santas that slaughter the innocent. What more could one want for Christmas?!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! In this special episode, the buddies finally make a trip to Haddonfield and have our first run-in with The Shape, Michael Myers. We carve into the Carpenter classic that perfected the tone of the slasher film and gave us the first appearance of horror's finest final girl, Laurie Strode. We ask the tough questions like "Does Micheal need adrenochrome?" and less weird things. Enjoy.

Special guest Dan Monaco is a comedian and works at Baton Rouge haunted house, The 13th Gate. Today he joins the show for a discussion of one of the essential video store delights, Killer Klowns From Outer Space. It's a movie that knows exactly what it is, and goes all in on it's premise. Pop some popcorn, snuggle up to your balloon dog, and enjoy.

In this episode, we dig up the bones of an obscure 80's oddity starring Alice Cooper. It's a wild, head-scratching ride of a movie that's bookended by the same music video played twice. Wild beyond reason, listeners can seek this one out and see if Monster Dog is man's best friend, or should be put down. Enjoy.

The buddies make their first trip to Tromaville in this episode, and fair warning, it's probably the most insane, offensive, bucket of "what the cluck?"  that we've ever covered. Enjoy.

Having survived the hurricane, the Buddies return with our first Fulci flick. The unforgettable, iconic zombie movie of many different names. Put this audio in your ears and a wood splinter in your eyes, it's ZOMBIE. 

After a long and depressing hiatus, the buddies are back...and we wanna play a game. This episode, we talk James Wan's breakout movie that introduced a new master of horror in the early 2000's and birthed a bevy of box office offspring. Let's go back to the bathroom at the beginning. Warning - Trent is drunk as f**k.  This episode includes a tribute to the recently passed Hollise Murphy. Our thoughts go out to his friends and family, and the entire New Orleans music scene that he was and always will be a legendary part of. Link to donate to support his family during this time can be found below.  https://www.gofundme.com/f/hollise-murphy-funeral-expenses

In our first episode post Trent's move to South Korea, we tackle the killer korean thriller, I SAW THE DEVIL. It's not one for the faint of heart, but if you can stomach the extreme themes, it's a masterpiece of macabre. Enjoy. TRIGGER WARNING: This film and the discussion within this episode contain scenes of sexual assault.

We've reached episode 50! And how fitting that with Trent moving to South Korea, this will be the last episode the Buddies record in the same room. Today, we dive into the debut film from Ryan Spindell. It's a crowd pleasing anthology that takes you across everything we love about the horror genre. With a creepy killer performance by Clancy Brown as the mortician, Montgomery Dark, it's an instant classic in the anthology sub-genre. Enjoy.
