It's Christmas so we're digging into a classic of the festive horror canon, Bob Clark's Black Christmas.

Giving sermons and laying pipe: The Devils (1971)
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Monday Dec 18, 2023
This week we're talking about Ken Russell's church and state fever dream The Devils. A very silly serious movie about real issues that straddles so many different lines. It's a fun one. We also talk about Elvis, Barbie, and Randy Quaid as Frankenstein.
Three questions we ask ourselves this week:
- Is it blasphemous because it's good or is it good because it's blasphemous?
- Can you make a case for this being a Christmas movie?
- Is there anything more decadent than a French king?

The brain equivalent of body horror: Bug (2006)
Monday Dec 11, 2023
Monday Dec 11, 2023
This week, we're getting truly weird in a tiny hotel room with Michael Shannon and Ashley Judd, as we talk Bug. Things get all kinds of nuts as we dig into people's theories about the subtext, Sam gives us a different read on Titanic, and we pose the question: what happens when you get between daddy and daddy?
Three kinds of people get ripped to shreds in this episode:
- People who are anti-sex scenes
- People who take this movie at face value
- Michael Buble

Up, up, up the depravity: Street Trash (1987)
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Right folks, chug the last of that Tenafly Viper and let's get anarchic. We're talking Street Trash, a gooey, icky, melty, mucky slice of New York underground filmmaking.
Filled with iconic gore effects and dubious character choices, the big question is: is it any good? We'll tell you, slowly over the course of 90ish minutes.
Also, drinking stories.

Back Door Wicker Man: Curse of the Crimson Altar (1968)
Monday Nov 27, 2023
Monday Nov 27, 2023
Sam and Jamie are back and this week they're taking a visit to rural England in search of missing brothers, ancient witches and horror icons in Curse of the Crimson Altar. It's your classic folk horror story told through a very swingin' 60s lens, with plenty of smutty, goofy charm.
Some questions for this week include:
- Why are they talking about Tammy and the T-Rex?
- Are all antique dealers horny?
- What is Bob's problem?
- Are you still talking about porn? (Yes, but this time it's kind of relevant)

Questions asked and, maybe, answered this week include:
- Is it possible to create a new slasher icon?
- Is Kane Hodder a Juggalo?
- Why is torture porn called that?
- Who let Kevin Smith make Yoga Hosers?

Monday Nov 13, 2023
Monday Nov 13, 2023
Join Sam and Jamie as they rip through your speakers for a double dose of Italian splatter with not one but two Demons movies.
The boys get delirious as they hit Berlin's Metropol cinema and a nearby apartment block to discuss classic art, Nostradamus, and discover if these gore movies are more high-brow than the bulging eyes and claws would have you believe.
