    Price Vs Paris · House of Wax 1953 vs 2005 with Barely Legal & Maker's 46 Bourbons

    Welcome back to Midnight Movie Distillery where we watch the movies you've heard about… and drink the whiskey that helps us have the arguments we love to have. Tonight we're launching a new segment: Original vs Remake. Two versions of the same story, one recording, one long night. Kicking it off with House of Wax — Vincent Price's 1953 Warner Bros. classic (the first major-studio 3-D color feature; André de Toth directing with one eye) versus the 2005 Elisha Cuthbert / Chad Michael Murray / Paris Hilton reboot (Jaume Collet-Serra's directorial debut, Dark Castle producing). 52 years apart. Same studio. Same title. Barely the same movie. Two spirits for a double feature: Dark Arts Whiskey House Barely Legal Barrel Strength and Maker's 46 Bourbon. One rougher, one polished — pairs the vibe of each film. Big disagreement on the 2005 version. One of us went in the tank for it. Another walked out cold. You'll want to hear that one. So pour yourself something strong… bring a friend to argue with… and let's see how a remake stands next to the original. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Intro 01:30 - Alcohol Review 07:18 - Alcohol Barrel Rating 16:25 - Alcohol Barrel Rating 2 32:05 - Movie Review 33:00 - Movie Barrel Rating 48:36 - Movie Barrel Rating 2 1:12:21 - Outro ▬ Midnight Movie Distillery — watch it, drink it, rate it ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ All our horror + whiskey reviews: midnightmoviedistillery.com #midnightmoviedistillery #podcaster #podcasts #horrorpodcast #horrorjunkie #horrormovie #horrorfan #horror #horrormovies #originalvsremake #houseofwax #houseofwax1953 #houseofwax2005 #vincentprice #classichorror #3dhorror #warnerbros #elishacuthbert #chadmichaelmurray #parishilton #jaredpadalecki #darkcastle #jaumecolletserra #whiskey #whisky #whiskeylife #whiskeytasting #bourbon #bourbonreview #darkartswhiskey #barelylegalbourbon #makersmark #makers46 #craftbourbon

    Hell Hitched a Ride · Passenger (2026) with Whiskey Acres Blue Popcorn Bourbon

    Welcome back to Midnight Movie Distillery where we watch the movies you've heard about… and drink the whiskey that helps us figure out what's actually in the car with us. Tonight we're reviewing Passenger — André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe, The Last Voyage of the Demeter) taking van-life horror on a demonic joyride. A young couple witnesses a gruesome highway accident and realizes they did not leave the crash scene alone. A presence called the Passenger latches on. Jacob Scipio and Lou Llobell as the couple; Melissa Leo along for the ride. Christopher Young scoring — the guy who did Hellraiser, Sinister, and Drag Me to Hell. Paired with it: Whiskey Acres Artisan Series 2025 Blue Popcorn Bourbon — a craft bourbon from DeKalb, Illinois. Solid three-way agreement on the pour. One of us didn't take the ride the others took. You'll hear it. So pour yourself something strong… lock the van doors… and let's see what Øvredal does with an interstate and a demon. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Intro 01:26 - Alcohol Review 07:30 - Alcohol Barrel Rating 16:30 - Movie Review 18:09 - Movie Barrel Rating 30:14 - Outro ▬ Midnight Movie Distillery — watch it, drink it, rate it ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ All our horror + whiskey reviews: midnightmoviedistillery.com #midnightmoviedistillery #podcaster #podcasts #horrorpodcast #horrorjunkie #horrormovie #horrorfan #horror #horrormovies #2026horror #passenger #passengermovie #andreovredal #autopsyofjanedoe #lastvoyageofthedemeter #paramount #vanlifehorror #jacobscipio #louellobell #melissaleo #christopheryoung #whiskey #whisky #whiskeylife #whiskeytasting #bourbon #bourbonreview #whiskeyacres #whiskeyacresdistillery #bluepopcornbourbon #illinoisbourbon #craftbourbon

    M3GAN Gets Horny · Soulm8te (2026) with Hard Truth Sweet Mash Small Batch Bourbon

    Welcome back to Midnight Movie Distillery where we watch the movies you've heard about… and drink the whiskey that helps us argue about them. Tonight we're reviewing Soulm8te — Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) taking the M3GAN universe R-rated. A grieving engineer at a ruthless tech giant is handed a new AI companion to beta-test. When he tries to reprogram her into a truly sentient soulmate, she develops needs of her own. Precision-engineered mayhem follows. James Wan and Jason Blum produce; Lily Sullivan (Evil Dead Rise) as the AI, David Rysdahl as the widower. Paired with it: Hard Truth Sweet Mash Small Batch Bourbon out of Indiana — one of the more unanimous pours of the night. Fair warning — the room did NOT agree on this one. One of us bounced off it hard. So pour yourself something strong… don't fall in love with anything that runs on electricity… and let's see whether the M3GAN universe works when it grows up. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Intro 01:19 - Alcohol Review 07:08 - Alcohol Barrel Rating 11:42 - Movie Review 13:04 - Movie Barrel Rating 26:28 - Outro ▬ Midnight Movie Distillery — watch it, drink it, rate it ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ All our horror + whiskey reviews: midnightmoviedistillery.com #midnightmoviedistillery #podcaster #podcasts #horrorpodcast #horrorjunkie #horrormovie #horrorfan #horror #horrormovies #2026horror #soulm8te #m3gan #katedolan #blumhouse #jameswan #atomicmonster #lilysullivan #davidrysdahl #aihorror #whiskey #whisky #whiskeylife #whiskeytasting #bourbon #hardtruth #hardtruthdistillery #sweetmashbourbon #indianabourbon #craftbourbon

    Soldiers Vs Werewolves · Dog Soldiers (2002) with Trader Joe's Islay Storm Scotch

    Welcome back to Midnight Movie Distillery where we watch the movies you've heard about… and drink the whiskey that helps us figure out why some cult movies just don't die. Tonight we're reviewing Dog Soldiers (2002) — Neil Marshall's debut feature, made for two million dollars in a Luxembourg forest pretending to be the Scottish Highlands. A British Army squad drops in for what they're told is a training exercise. They find a mutilated Special Forces unit. Then the moon comes up. Sean Pertwee, Kevin McKidd (pre-Grey's), Liam Cunningham (pre-Game of Thrones). Practical werewolf effects that still hold up. The movie that got Marshall to The Descent. Paired with it: Trader Joe's Islay Storm — because a British werewolf film demands a peated scotch. Trader Joe's private-label single-malt Islay, and it landed better than you might expect. The room did not converge on this one. One lifelong fan does not equal three-way agreement. So pour yourself something strong… stay out of the Scottish woods after dark… and let's see whether Sgt. Wells' squad earns their cult status. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Intro 01:26 - Alcohol Review 07:44 - Alcohol Barrel Rating 15:36 - Movie Review 18:16 - Movie Barrel Rating 36:35 - Outro ▬ Midnight Movie Distillery — watch it, drink it, rate it ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ All our horror + whiskey reviews: midnightmoviedistillery.com #midnightmoviedistillery #podcaster #podcasts #horrorpodcast #horrorjunkie #horrormovie #horrorfan #horror #horrormovies #cultclassic #britishhorror #dogsoldiers #dogsoldiers2002 #neilmarshall #thedescent #werewolfmovie #werewolfhorror #seanpertwee #kevinmckidd #liamcunningham #whiskey #whisky #whiskeylife #whiskeytasting #scotch #scotchwhisky #islay #peatedscotch #islayscotch #traderjoes #traderjoeswhisky
