    HTWDT - Episode 9: The Omen (1976) and The First Omen (2024)

    Happy Holidays! There's a little bit more in the stocking this year, as this episode clocks in as the longest yet (Mom, you'll have to split it into two LOL). It's the original Omen, with all kinds of how'd they do that, and special spooky stuff about "The Curse of the Omen." Our second feature is the new 2024 prequel to the original Omen, The First Omen. Directed by Arkasha Stevenson. Find out as we discover. What's in the Omen Junk Drawer, and what the daggers of Megiddo really do. Also Mike has a spooky set story. Plus, much, much more! Stick around post end-credits, too, for a few more laughs. Enjoy, and thanks again for being a listener and if you haven't please leave us a review somewhere. We really appreciate it.

    HTWDT - Episode 8: Videodrome (1983) and The Substance (2024)

    The long-awaited Videodrome/Substance episode is here! If you are looking for body horror, you've found it. Everyone has been talking about the Substance and now the boys finally get to share their notes. This episode was actually supposed to be on before, but got shifted around when we did the Thanksgiving special. So here it is...On this one Mike gets into some great behind-the-scenes "how'd they do that" bits along with some fun set stories. Don't worry the boys do manage to have a few chuckles about how bizarre both of these movies are.

    HTWDT - Episode 6: Leprechaun (1993) and Oddity (2024)

    Honestly, this may not sound like a good review pairing, at least not Leprechaun...but this may be our funniest one yet. Listen along as we explore such topics as General Mills refusal to support Leprechaun with Lucky Charms, hear some fun makeup and set stories, learn how Mike's not a stalker, but will reach out to famous directors he doesn't know on the internet, and... we read one of our first reviews on air. Let us know if the Irish-laden shenanigans in this one tickled your funny bone. Or tell us if "Mom was right." Enjoy. As always, to help us out, please like, comment, and review.
