    Hokum (2026)

    Apparently reviewing Hokum (2026) wasn’t enough for Logan… so he bought an Irish hotel. Welcome to Logan’s Dread & Breakfast, where the doors mysteriously lock behind you, the continental breakfast is basically Mountain Dew, Bearclaw has his own VERY special room, and we’re pretty sure this place is one insurance claim away from financial stability. 🔥 Once we survive check-in, we dive deep into Hokum (2026) and ask the important question: Is this one of the BEST supernatural horror movies of the year… or did Adam Scott just spend two hours tripping on mushroom whiskey and running from an Irish witch? 🍄👻 In this episode of the Mouths of Madness, we break down Damian McCarthy’s latest nightmare, including the creepy Irish hotel setting, terrifying jump scares, Adam Scott’s performance, the mysterious witch, Jack the Jackass, THAT ending, and most importantly… Jerry and his legendary mushroom goat milk. 🐐🍄 🔥 Key Moments 00:00 Intro – Welcome to Logan’s Dread & Breakfast 04:42 Hokum (2026) – Cast, Box Office & Rotten Tomatoes 08:20 Why We Chose Hokum + Overall Thoughts 28:06 Ohm Bauman – Guilt, Trauma & the Hero’s Journey 34:38 The Haunted Hotel, Irish Folklore & Atmosphere 38:01 Is the Witch Actually Real?! 52:02 Breaking Down the Witch, Trauma & Hokum’s Ending 1:02:52 The Wrap Up – Conspiracy Theories & Hot Takes 1:09:09 Hall of Slain – Who Makes the Cut? 1:12:48 Hook, Line & Stinker 1:21:53 Final Ratings – Killer / Survivor / Victim 1:29:06 Audience Takes & What We’ve Been Watching Episode 68 Featuring Kevin, Dan, Bearclaw & Logan Produced by Nathan Mouths of Madness is a long-form horror podcast dedicated to deep-dive discussions on classic, cult, and disturbing horror films—with an unhinged twist.

    SJT: Female Trouble (1974)

    🔥 Female Trouble (1974) might be one of the most UNHINGED movies we’ve ever reviewed. John Waters + Divine + cha-cha heels + a bowl of spaghetti = absolute CINEMA. 😂 In this episode, we dive into the filthy, hilarious, low-budget madness of Female Trouble, debate whether it actually qualifies as horror, discuss why Divine’s Dawn Davenport is somehow impossible NOT to root for, and ask the important question: Is crime really beauty? From the legendary Christmas meltdown to acid attacks, fish, questionable parenting, the most chaotic dinner party imaginable, and an electric-chair finale… John Waters certainly gave us plenty to talk about. We also break down the movie’s cult status, its punk-rock DIY style, the performances, its surprisingly relevant themes about fame and crime, and whether Female Trouble is the BEST gateway into the wonderfully disgusting world of John Waters. 🔥 Key Moments 00:00 Female Trouble (1974) Review 02:11 Why Female Trouble? | Our First Impressions 09:14 Pink Flamingos vs. Female Trouble 16:34 Does the LOW Budget Make It Better? 19:51 Was John Waters Ahead of His Time? 25:53 Dawn Davenport: Villain, Hero or Both?32:01 The INSANE Characters of Female Trouble 42:00 The Dashers, Fame & “Crime Is Beauty”47:00 The Nightclub, Spaghetti & TOTAL CHAOS 1:04:29 Quote or Kill 1:07:52 Letterboxd Ratings (Final Scores) 1:12:40 What We've Been Watching (Horror Recs & Recent Watches) Your hosts- Kevin, Nathan, and Gill Produced by Nathan Check out the video format of this episode on YouTube 🪓 Follow Straitjacket Talk ↓ All links, socials & more: Linktree “Dismember” Theme Music by Nathan

    BONUS: Could They Survive?- John Nada vs The Thing

    What happens when John Carpenter’s ultimate alien-killing badass meets John Carpenter’s ultimate alien? 👽🔥 In this episode of Could They Survive?, we drop John Nada (Rowdy Roddy Piper) from They Live into the frozen nightmare of Outpost 31 from The Thing. No MacReady. No prep time. Just Nada, a flamethrower, an unhealthy amount of paranoia, and a creature that can perfectly imitate anyone. Could Nada expose The Thing before it assimilates him? Would his famous sunglasses actually help? Or would the entire station be on fire approximately 15 minutes after he arrives? 😂 We break down Nada’s strengths and weaknesses, the blood test, his potential six-minute fistfight with Childs, and whether his “kick ass first, ask questions never” strategy could actually SAVE HUMANITY. 🔥 John Nada vs. The Thing — WHO SURVIVES?

    The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

    This week on The Mouths of Madness, we're diving into The Silence of the Lambs (1991)—the Oscar-winning horror classic featuring Hannibal Lecter, Clarice Starling, Buffalo Bill, and enough psychological horror to make your therapist quit. But here's the twist... is Clarice actually the hero? 👀 We debate one of the wildest fan theories we've ever discussed, break down Hannibal Lecter's true motivations, explore why this movie still dominates horror over 30 years later, and somehow end up comparing Clarice to Batman. Trust us... it makes sense (sort of). Expect deep horror analysis, hilarious arguments, Letterboxd ratings, favorite kills, memorable quotes, and plenty of unhinged comedy along the way.
