    Episode 47: Krampus (2015) - You'd Better Watch Out

    Peter and Phil have a festive chat about Michael Dougherty's movie Krampus from 2015. We go through the story, characters, themes, crazy monsters, creepy elves and a big horned and hooved fella. We also read a huge aspect of the film two completely different ways, and have to dive into the internet to see who is correct. Find out who wins here. And Happy Holidays!

    Episode 46: The Mist (2007) - Cloudy With a Chance of Tentacles

    Peter and Phil try to find their way through The Mist from 2007, written and directed by Frank Darabont from a story by Stephen King. We discuss the story, characters, behind the scenes stories from the making of the movie, differences between the novella and the film, and the weird and wonderful creatures that lurk within. We also fundamentally disagree about a major (and controversial) aspect of the movie. See who you agree with!

    Episode 45: Aliens (1986) - Game over man! Mostly.

    Peter and Phil take a deep dive on a drop ship back to LV-426 to explore James Cameron's action packed sequel Aliens. We go through the actors, characters, story, themes and lots of behind the scenes stories. Why would Ripley go back? Where are the colonists? Who laid all the eggs? Find out here. We go on a couple of little tangents but mostly stay on track. Mostly.

Knowledgeable and Entertaining

Great in depth reviews and recaps of horror films old and new. Both hosts are witty, charming and engaging and it’s easy to listen to them for hours on end (and I did!).

Excellent!

An extremely knowledgeable and amiable duo. Their chats and tangents are a jolly good listen and on occasion I have been in fits of giggles but mostly I listen to this podcast for the guy’s thoughtful and engaging interest in films and film making technique. Check out their awesome Hellraiser podcast too! Huge thanks to the guys and I hope there’s plenty more content to come!

A breath of fresh air

It’s so refreshing to hear two guys who actually seem to love horror movies...in a sea of other horror podcasts that simply exist to scoff at them or slag them off. Always a joy the listen to. Keep up the good work!
