Horror Movie Club

When I first started listening to this podcast, the lack of horror knowledge from the hosts was frustrating at times. But I became fascinated in hearing someone’s review of classic horror film after watching for the first time. The lack of pretentiousness, and open minded reviews from two guys who “just like movies”, was very refreshing. As someone who’s watched horror movies religiously for the last 30+ years, we sometimes take ourselves too seriously about a genre that’s supposed to be fun!

I’ve been a horror fan my entire life and just recently found these guys. I really enjoy their banter and their discussion on so many different horror movies, spanning several decades. They make me laugh and when they reminisce on certain scenes and kills, it just makes me want to go back for a rewatch. The nostalgia for the older films hits hard! I think it is an excellent podcast for horror fans! I appreciate all the effort they put into researching and outlining important scenes and walk throughs of the movies. Highly recommended!

I really did enjoy the podcast at one point, but Brian’s constant hating has brought it down in my opinion. I also feel like Ashvin just agrees with everything Brian complains about because he doesn’t really pay attention to the films they review. Here’s a piece of advice: just review the movie. Stop comparing movies to others, and stop comparing a director’s or writer’s new projects to their older ones. People evolve, and not everything has to be the same.

I really dug the first few episodes I listened to. After a while though I just lost patience with the hosts. They miss so many things about the films they review. The flash bulb being used to slow down a killer is from Rear Window. Not Silence of the Lambs. How can you be horror guys and not know that iconic Hitchcock scene? Also, Ashvin needs to check himself on the shallow way he talks about women in general. Rating final girls by how hot you think they are isn't cute. It's just offensive and a waste of real horror fan's time.
