The New Flesh Horror Movies Horror News Scary Movie

full disclosure i have never once listened to this show on apple podcasts but spotify doesn’t believe in leaving reviews so i am crossing enemy lines just this once. i discovered this podcast at a pretty rough time in my life, having just entered therapy following a brief hospitalisation when things got real low. while in therapy, we discussed that it was key for to me to find something to look forward to. something that i could plan ahead to so that i just had to get through a, b, c and then i’ll have not only made it to the next episode but to the next week. we discussed how it was important to be able to find something to take comfort in. something to be able to get lost in or distract myself with or find familiarity in, something that was easily accessible at a time of need and something that i could always go back to. because i lack a mind’s eye, we figured that books may not be the right move and it was soon after that i discovered the new flesh horror movies horror news scary movie, a show that would not only help me through the worst time of my life but go on to soundtrack most of the greatest. i’m sure brett and jesse will take less than no credit for the profound impact this podcast has had on me and my life, but i really do just want to say thank you to them both .. and to louis, scout, randall, alex, hoff, charles and the many other amazing guests that have been featured on the show (emma stefansky back on the pod when!?) .. and also most certainly thanks to mark over at roger and me, an equally exceptional movie review show that everybody should check out. thanks to me essentially needing to have my headphones in every waking minute of the day (autism and the lack of an internal monologue means i really get overwhelmed if i don’t have like one singular sound in my ears), i listen to this show almost all day every day and it has truly been one of the greatest pleasures of my life. there are episodes i have listened to thirty times, episodes i can recite like i’m watching home alone two on christmas morning, specific episodes that i will listen to during a walk or a workout and, most importantly, episodes that i will listen to during my less than enjoyable spirals and i will never be able to truly express how thankful i am that those in particular are there. i see now that this has become more of a direct message to brett rather than an actual review so i’ll wrap it up by saying if you’re looking for the perfect horror podcast to soundtrack your often monday, sometimes wednesday, once in a while thursday, occasionally fortnightly or potentially once a month walk, run or commute, i absolutely could not recommend this show more. it’s the most consistently great but inconsistently uploaded show on the airwaves. ben p.s has jesse seen the pagemaster yet

I love this podcast. Brett and Jesse are funny and entertaining and always have interesting takes on the latest and greatest horror movies. I especially look forward to the News section, as it’s such a convenient way to get up to date with everything in the world of horror. Long may it continue and I hope they don’t have to go behind a paywall one day.

….my Lord do these guys talk fast ! They should be auctioneers! I can honestly say I’ve never heard two people talk as fast. Had to slow the audio down to make out what they were saying. That being said, they’re both very likeable hosts who know their stuff and are very entertaining and critical. Bit too much waffle at the start perhaps. I listened to the Martyrs episode and it took 30 minutes to get to the actual film which was all tied up within an hour. Ill stick with it though. Theres a lot worse out there. Just slow down ! Points deducted for the unnecessary and juvenile swearing. Not a good look. Unless you want to come across as a redneck

Only movie review podcast for me! Refreshing to have a horror-focussed show being presented by knowledgeable critics with interests in more than solely horror. Leads to well-rounded opinions opposed to fanatical praise. Sure that may frustrate a die-hard genre fan but they’re the worst. Patreon’s where they put the ‘flesh’ into ‘New Flesh’, unrivalled content. Keep it up lads!
