We’ve made it to Episode 100! That amounts to at least 100 hours of recording time, at least 150 hours of watching Horror movies, and at least 500 HOURS of post-production editing and releasing of episodes. And we’re just getting started, Baby! Welcome to Horror Movie Weekly, The Midnight Bowling of Horror Podcasts… In this historic show, your three late night Horror hosts — Jay of the Dead, Mister Watson and Channy Dreadful — bring you a special Feature Review of the Horror Comedy Drag Me to Hell (2009) — an unusual exception to our typical five-year release span of 2016 to 2021. We also bring you Channy Dreadful’s Hot Food Challenge, and we enjoy a bittersweet farewell to Channy Dreadful. Watson and Channy also bring you some Micro Horror Movie Reviews of “Fear Street: Part 3 – 1666” (2021) and M. Night Shyamalan’s “Old” (2021). So, join us for our Episode 100 wackiness. And remember, you’re always welcome to call and leave us a voicemail at (801) 215-9704.

Notes: Our Hot Food Challenge is dedicated to Raul, The Monster Slayer, host of the Headlong Into Monsters Horror podcast. This episode was recorded on August 2 (Dave Zee’s birthday) and released on October 17, 2021.

This weekly Horror movie podcast brings you one recent Horror movie review every Sunday. (We’re defining “recent” as any Horror movie released within the last five years, so now that it’s 2021, we’ll be covering Horror films from 2016 to the present.) And we always reveal next week’s pick at the end of every show, so you can watch along with us and be prepared for the following episode. Join us, and thanks for listening!
