Gratuitous nudity. Horrible dubbing. Extreme violence and bad acting all wrapped up in a package of camp from a Spanish director. They cannot make films like this anymore. We had a lot of fun picking this feature apart and we hope you enjoy as well as we give the Horror 101 treatment to Juan Piquer Simón's Pieces. Its EXACTLY...

August 31, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 86.5 MBWelcome to our 137th show! In the late 90s a young Paul W.S. Anderson directed a fantastic cast in a Horror/Sci Fi that's main goal was to give you a haunted house in space film. Test Audiences hated it. Half an hour was cut from it. The negative has been neglected and destroyed and although it was a commercial failure this film has since gathered a huge following in the horror community. Its been a long time since our crew had extremely varied opinions on a title. We hope you...

May 31, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 83.6 MBTwo days before we convened to run the microphone for this episode Evil Dead Rise was released for stream. Hot off the press. We had to strike while the iron was hot. None of us were fans of the 2013 remake and expectations were low for this entry. All of us had avoided spoilers and were going in to this cold. We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of Lee Cronin's addition to the Evil Dead Universe. Show Highlights: 01:00 Prelude to Terror 04:45 Remembering our first Ev...

We did entertain the idea of covering an Irish themed horror but ultimately went with a film from 2016. Its quick, its tight. Its a decent shocker. Its a solid supernatural story that seems familiar but repacked well. Its claustrophobic and has an excellent cast and for these reasons we're giving the Horror 101 treatment to André Øvredal's The Autopsy of Jane Doe. Show High...

June 30, 2022 00:00 - 59 minutes - 81.3 MBOn this show we cover a Lou Diamond Phillips action/horror from 1990. This film borrows heavily from late 80s resurrected killer movies like Shocker and The Horror Show. Jeff Kober has a menacingly good time playing Satanic killer Patrick Channing.
