9 Lives Horror Club

Spooky, sharp, and just self-aware enough to be dangerous. Welcome to 9 Lives Horror Club, where long-time besties Ben and Cheyenne use horror movies to unpack the very real fears, behaviors, and blind spots hiding beneath the blood. Each week, Ben brings the bold hot takes. Chey brings her background in psychology and English literature to dissect the trauma, symbolism, and uncomfortable truths lurking under the surface. Together, they argue, laugh, and occasionally defend the character everyone else hates. This isn’t just a recap podcast. It’s a conversation about what horror reveal

    40 Acres (2024) | Mistreatment of Marginalized Groups, Post-Apocalyptic Family Dynamics, and Cannibals

    Hello Club Members and Happy Friday! This week we are taking it to the good ole post-apocalyptic farm and defending our seasonings with our lives as we discuss 2024’s 40 Acres. We’re actually obsessed with this movie - the tiny budget and “failure” at the box office don’t mean sh!t for this one! Incredible acting, refreshing tired tropes, humor, humanity, history, a palpable and powerful message, and…..cannibalism. Literally, what more could you ask for? INPUT REQUESTED!!!! Do you prefer episodes broken up into 2? We are thinking about splitting most episodes into review / analysis format like Jennifer’s Body. Please let us know your thoughts!  Please give us a like, follow, and review and share with your friends and family. You can even share it with your local cannibal, that's none of our business. Also, don't forget to keep an eye out on our IGs to vote on what you want us to cover next! Staaaaaayyyy spooky, and we will see you Wednesday for the May Bonus episode!!
