    Jakob's Wife: How Anne Got Her Groove Back

    At this week's gathering of the Cult of Horror, the delectable duo (plus Hunter) discuss their ongoing lives of melodrama. Elliott is still carless and grieving. Hunter discovered the HATCHET series a decade late. And Eric tries to pump some life into the podcast with a poor-man's morning-zoo soundboard. This week's main review is Shudder's newly released vampiric horror, JAKOB'S WIFE, starring THE Barbara Crampton. The boys will decide if it goes for the throat or just plain sucks. And lastly, the gang reviews their first cult/fan recommendation with 2020's THE EMPTY MAN. A paranormal mystery that has a lot going on. Listen in to hear whether the boys were blessed or cursed with the new segment's first installment.

    Fear Street Special Part 2: 1978 & 1666

    This week's episode is the second part and conclusion of the CULT OF HORROR FEAR STREET SPECIAL. Much in line with the review of the this trilogy, Eric reveals that he is straight out of f***s to give at work and is on an office mean streak. Here's to hoping he's still employed. 🍻 No new news this week. Just a cut to the chase (literally in this case.) The gang continues their plummet into Netflix's FEAR STREET "thrillogy" with the middle child: 1978. A classic camp slasher that explores more of Shadyside's witch curse and gives Elliott his sack-headed-killer fix. Lastly, the third and final film, 1666, throws the FEAR STREET films into a colonial time warp giving us a beginning to this whole story. The boys weigh-in with their highs and lows, blessings and grievances and their final thoughts on FEAR STREET as a whole. Was it f*****g worth it? d r i n k   t h e   k o o l - a i d   / /  h a v e   a   g r e a t   d a y  What did you think of FEAR STREET: 1978 or FEAR STREET: 1666? Let us know!

Literally.  Then, the gang family-styles the latest in horror movie and TV news for your info pleasure. And Finally CULT OF HORROR presents its extra long review of Netflix's and R.L. Stine's FEAR STREET: 1994. Our hosts spend the whole episode walking you through the first of this trilogy's kills, thrills and face-palms.

    A Classic Horror Story: Curious Chubby Italian Boy

    Back once again, this week the fellas are more fear than fright as the Covid-Delta variant is clouding over their spooky boy summer. To add to this morose mood is Hunter and Elliott's privileged car problem woes. Meanwhile, Eric is a capable adult man who can mend his own machinery. Post pity-party, Elliott big-shoots the latest in horror news and releases, as per usual. This week's review is Netflix's Italian camper-cult, folk-horror film, A CLASSIC HORROR STORY.  Is this European flick a new classic or a hodgepodge of misplaced references? Finally, Elliott gives his freebie movie recommendation with South Korea's 2016 suspense/horror story, THE WAILING. A creepy movie that has damn near everything. d r i n k   t h e   k o o l - a i d   / /  h a v e   a   g r e a t   d a y  What did you think of A CLASSIC HORROR STORY or THE WAILING? Let us know!

    Censor: I'm Taking This Seriously, But I'm Also Taking It Home.

    Back to the horror after a historical holiday hiatus, the boys are full-bore into hot mess summer. Eric suffers through Karens in the workplace. Hunter claims to be taking a road trip soon. And Elliott thinks the Mandela Effect theory is dumb. But then there's actual news. This week the boys rate the brand new psychological horror, video nasty themed film, CENSOR. Is it worth a rewind or a fast forward? Finally Hunter brings the cult his movie recommendation with BANSHEE CHAPTER. A maybe or maybe not scifi, thriller/horror/conspiracy sleeper from 2013. See if this MK-Ultra, mixed media mind-f**k is something you'd liked to be subjected to.

    Caveat: Shit Defender

    NEW EPISODE On this week's episode, the spookiest boys find themselves in the moodiest of moods. Hunter's out of meds, Eric's sleep deprived, and Elliott's caught in the middle of a toxic household. After kicking things off proper with some exciting news that's "too big to fail" as well as the latest in headline-horror, the gang gleefully hops into a review for the 2020 film, CAVEAT (2020)! This latest Shudder exclusive has the critics, the cult and the boys talking. Is CAVEAT the indie-gem  we've been waiting for all year OR or is it plagued by limitations like the title implies? Finally, Elliott brings a spoiler-free review for an obscure made-for-TV film entitled DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW (1981). This old-school horror tale gives new meaning to the term "the final straw." d r i n k   t h e   k o o l - a i d   / /  h a v e   a   g r e a t   d a y What did you think of CAVEAT (2020)  or DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW (1981)?
