    491 - The Purge Election Year (2016)

    Ahhhhh dang!!! Today we are breaking down The Purge: Election Year, the explosive third chapter in the dystopian thriller series directed by James DeMonaco. Starring Frank Grillo and Elizabeth Mitchell, this time the plot follows a presidential candidate vowing to end the annual night of lawlessness and mayhem making her a prime target during the nation’s most violent 12 hours. We explore its political themes, escalating action, and how it pushes the franchise’s chilling premise into the heart of American democracy.  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wheel.of.horror7?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wheelofhorrorpodcast1802/videos   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wheel-of-horror/id1534102813   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3HnyAISG8Z8hvMFdSG60tE?si=9b785cf21c7f46a3   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wheel_of_horror/   Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/HorrorWheel

    489 - My Bloody Valentine (1981)

    Happy Valentines Day!!! Today we’re heading deep underground to crack open My Bloody Valentine (1981). the grimy Canadian slasher that proves nothing says romance like a pickaxe to the heart. Set in a mining town where Valentine’s Day comes with a body count, this cult classic blends blue-collar dread, holiday horror, and some truly brutal kills. We dig into the film’s troubled production, the infamous MPAA cuts, and why its atmosphere hits harder than most slashers of the era. Is Harry Warden one of the most underrated horror villains? And does this movie deserve more love than it gets? Grab your gas mask, lock the mine shaft, and join us as we unearth one of the bloodiest Valentine’s dates in horror history.

    488 - Halloween Resurrection (2002)

    Michael Myers is back… again.....again but this time, he’s live on the internet.  Today we dive headfirst into Halloween: Resurrection, the controversial sequel that resurrects the franchise by trapping a group of realityTV contestants inside the Myers house for a night of “fun” that quickly turns fatal. We break down the wild early-2000s energy, the found-footage vibes before they were cool, and the ridiculous opening scene. From Busta Rhymes’ unforgettable kung-fu showdown with Michael, to the film’s attempt to modernize horror through webcams and live streams, we ask the big question: misunderstood experiment or franchise low point? Join us as we explore the kills, the chaos, the lore whiplash, and why Halloween: Resurrection still sparks arguments among horror fans more than 20 years later. Love it or hate it Michael Myers never stays dead.

    487 - Behind the Mask (2006) Guest: Matt Banever

    Today we take a deep dive into Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon, the cult horror mockumentary that flips the slasher genre on its head. We explore how the film blends comedy and horror, deconstructs iconic slasher tropes, and turns the killer into the protagonist, asking what happens when the killer knows the rules and invites us behind the scenes. An underrated and under talked about film for horror fans who love smart satire with a sharp edge. Enjoy!

    485 - Final Destination 2 (2003) Guest: Ryan Baldassario

    Finally we are revisiting Final Destination 2, the sequel that turned everyday road trips into pure terror. From the infamous highway pile-up to the franchise’s signature chain-reaction deaths, we break down how the film escalates its formula, deepens its mythology of Death’s design, and cements its place as one of the most memorable entries in the series.
