It's our 50th Episode! So we are celebrating by covering a 50 year old story - Stephen King's Carrie first published in 1974. We talk through Brian De Palma's stylish (and very 1970s) movie adaptation - the story, characters, actors, split-screens, crane shots, Star Wars connections, split diopter lenses, audio montages, deleted scenes and much, much more.

Peter and Phil have a festive chat about Michael Dougherty's movie Krampus from 2015. We go through the story, characters, themes, crazy monsters, creepy elves and a big horned and hooved fella. We also read a huge aspect of the film two completely different ways, and have to dive into the internet to see who is correct. Find out who wins here. And Happy Holidays!

Peter and Phil try to find their way through The Mist from 2007, written and directed by Frank Darabont from a story by Stephen King. We discuss the story, characters, behind the scenes stories from the making of the movie, differences between the novella and the film, and the weird and wonderful creatures that lurk within. We also fundamentally disagree about a major (and controversial) aspect of the movie. See who you agree with!
