More Halloweenery! We're joined by Joey Gallimore, aka Dr. Jose, of cameraviscera.com, to dig up our childhood memories of being afraid of the dark. We talk about things that scared us on television and in the movies, and examine how those fears mutated into a want to make scares of our own and a love for the horror genre

We attempt to process the effects of seeing movies like Alice, Sweet Alice, Cujo, The Brood, Dawn of the Dead at a young age.

We both agree that the Catholic Church is a scary place and seek solace in the teachings of our patron saints, Chainsaw and Dave.

Visuals

Weirdo stoner puppets reassure Joey that he is, in fact, alive. Joey is not comforted.

Extras

Joey writes about the stuff that scared him as a kid.

Peek behind the scenes and defang the scares with Fangoria and Gorezone magazines.

It turns out you can order a Venus Flytrap on Amazon.
