An uninvited visitor finds her way into this episode... but it's okay, it's just a cat.

Sarah and Jonathan revisit some of 2000s horror's most audacious twist endings this episode. The movies covered (and spoiled!) are: Identity (2003), The Skeleton Key (2005), Drag Me To Hell (2009), and Orphan (2009). Which one of these almost ended our friendship forever? Only one way to find out.

(Also, beware drive-by spoilers for Adaptation, Switchblade romance, Split, and Last Christmas. Oops.)

It's Friday the 13th and it's October, you know we had to get extra spooky!

This episode, Jonathan and Sarah investigate a string of movies that all reckon there's nothing scarier than the wardrobe in a child's bedroom after dark: we're talking Boogeyman (2005), Dead Silence (2007), and Insidious (2010), with bonus They (2002) and Darkness Falls (2003).

Mainly, we learned never to heckle ventriloquists...

Let us know what you thought of this episode on X (we're @ChillennialHPod) or via email (chillennialhorrors@gmail.com).

What's the scariest film you've ever seen and why is it The Ring (2002)?

Sarah and Jonathan rewatch three fairly unloved remakes of Japanese horror movies to check if they were actually any good or if the received wisdom that the originals were better is actually true.

No prizes for guessing the answer.

Films covered include The Ring (2002), The Grudge (2004), and Dark Water (2005), with a deservedly brief mention of Pulse (2006) and One Missed Call (2008).

Just when you thought this podcast was dead... it came back to life for one (and probably loads more, tbh) last scare!

This time, we're looking back at the 2000s trend for adapting computer games into movies so everyone could get really really angry about it. From Resident Evil (2002) through House of the Dead (2003) to Doom (2005) and Silent Hill (2006), we're asking the big question: did anyone ever make a good videogame movie?

As always, you can chat about the episode with us at @chillennialhpod, @SarahDobbs and @JonathanHatfull.

We've been avoiding it for about a year, but it's finally time for us to face our fears and revisit the zombie boom of the early 2000s! Join us as we relive our memories of 28 Days Later (2002), Dawn of the Dead (2004), Shaun of the Dead (2004), and Land of the Dead (2005). As always, spoilers for all of our main features abound, plus some chat about Anna and the Apocalypse (2017).



Have we come to terms with running zombies yet? What are our zombie survival plans? And what do zombies have to do with avocado toast? Have a listen, and then give us a tweet to @ChillennialHPod.

We've seen the new Scream film! And you're right, technically none of the Scream films fall under our remit, except mayyyyyyyybe Scream 3, but do you think that's going to stop us? No it's not.



We do have a rationale for that in the episode, but mostly we wanted to tell you our thoughts on Scream VI, as well as endlessly quoting the original one to each other and giggling about it. You know the drill by now.
