Customer Reviews
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!
