    S2 Ep. 16 - Final Destination 2 (2003) Vol. 2

    TRIGGER WARNING: This episode includes a reference to suicide as it pertains to a character in the film. Just when you thought we'd had enough of dodging Death's icy grip, we're back to tussle once again! Yes, indeed, on this episode we're heading back into the fiery blazes to close out the cataclysmic sequel, FINAL DESTINATION 2! We survived many calamities (and possible brain bleeds) along the way as we talk possessed elevators, expository car rides, No Fear advertising, casual emergencies, crisis snack parties, and plenty more! Also on this episode, we profess our love of Rory, add the phrase "train of death" to our lexicon, make connections to both SPEED and Uwe Boll, look deep into the logistics of these events, choose our favorite deaths, and propose a few changes to the finished product. This was a fun one. Check it out!

    S2 Ep. 15 - Halloween II (1981) Vol. 2

    The jack o' lanterns are sagging and the candy is gone but the Halloween spirit is year-round, so we're bringing you another dose of spooky season with the conclusion of our talk on HALLOWEEN II! We're doing what Nurse Karen fails so miserably at - putting this baby to bed (ba-dum-tss). Along the way we talk doctor labyrinths, needle deaths, unimpressive surgical weapons, Celtic rituals, boring cops, '70s medications, and plenty more! We also invoke the name of Paul Stephen Rudd, marvel at Michael's medical knowledge, continue an endless stream of wig jokes, decide if Jimmy lives or dies, grapple with Laurie's role in the film, and add up the bodies from this bloody rampage.

    Spooky greetings, ghouls and gals! It's almost Halloween and we're heading back to bloody Haddonfield, IL to take another crack at taking down this masked man known as Michael Myers. That's right, we are diving into 1981's HALLOWEEN II! Along the way we're talking googly eyed masks, razor blade trauma, Datsun pickup trucks, terrifying wigs, the perfect ham sandwich, and much more! We also offer Haddonfield Memorial Hospital some staffing advice, discuss the musical changes from the first film, dig into why Loomis is off his rocker, and question whether Haddonfield is such a great place to live. Lots to discuss in this one! Check it out!

We also make a strange connection to the movie AIRHEADS, plus discuss our own superstitions, profess our love for Tony Todd, decide if we like these characters or not, and finally pick our favorite death from the first half of the movie.

    S2 Ep. 12 - Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) Vol. 2

    Greetings, campers! Fall is just around the corner, so One Dark Fright is back to cap off the summer with the final installment of our discussion of 1981's camp slasher sequel - FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 2! The first half of the flick was all fun and games, but now we've entered the blood-soaked second half and things are going to get a little messy. Along the way we talk casual skinny dipping, cabin hiding places, meaty severed heads, proper machete handling, jokey murder beds, edgy kills, and so much more! We also discuss Ginny's lasting final girl status, compare Jason's fashions and methods to the others in the franchise, and cast our ballots in the big franchise debates. Check it out!

    S2 Ep. 11 - Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) Vol. 1

    Campers beware! Our season of sequels has officially rolled into vaunted slasher territory as we venture to the great state of New Jersey for a trip through 1981's FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 2! This one certainly holds a special place in horror history and we took a hard look at the details. Does it make sense? Not a lick! Does it matter? Nope! Along the way we discuss Alice's ineffective coping mechanisms, Jason's travel plans, body part preservation, confusing camp fashion, Crazy Ralph's cardio, and much more! We also question Paul's counselor training business plan, which season this takes place in, Jason's home decorating skills, and humorously attempt to fill in the gaps between his drowning as a boy and eventual re-spawning as an adult.

    S2 Ep. 10 - Critters 2: The Main Course (1988) Vol. 2

    Ring the dinner bell, ghouls and gals, because One Dark Fright is back for seconds as we take our last bites of 1988's insatiable sequel, CRITTERS 2! Along the way we discuss engorged alien weapons, Freddy Krueger sightings, kamikaze tricycles, impromptu rhyming, small town explosives, Charlie's kid-friendly role, and so much more! We also provide a scientific name for a group of critters, discuss the physics of that giant meatball, and decide if we like this movie enough to make it a yearly Easter staple. Check it out!

    S2 Ep. 9 - Critters 2: The Main Course (1988) Vol. 1

    Easter festivities may be firmly in the rearview mirror but that's not going to stop us from taking a bite out of 1988's comedic sci-fi, horror, creature feature mash-up - CRITTERS 2! In this episode we set our sights on the tiny town of Grover's Bend, KS to work our way through yet another crite invasion. Along the way we discuss garbage boutique shops, unconvincing town bullies, replacement sheriffs, the always amazing Lin Shaye, intergalactic hair styles, critter reproduction, and much more! We also try to figure out what takes critter eggs two years to hatch, how the heck Charlie fits in with the bounty hunters, why this dinky town hates a kid so much, and how the hell they got away with showing a fully topless woman in a PG-13 movie!
