S3E2 - The History of Black Sabbath Pt. 1: The Rise

October 29, 2021 17:00 - 1 hour - 109 MB

What other band in history has had as weird and batshit a history as Black Sabbath? Other than some of the groups from the Scandinavian Black Metal scene, very few. Trust us. We start a three-part series on the Lords of Darkness that invented metal and came from very humble beginnings. We talk about Ozzy's time in prison, Tony's hand accident, Anton LeVay's San Francisco parade, and of course, DRUGS. Hope you enjoy! Wheeeeeeeee

S3E1 - Masque of the Red Death (Short Story, 1842)

October 22, 2021 18:21 - 1 hour - 36.7 MB

Ever wanted to impress that big tiddy goth in psych class? Well, here's a not as famous Edgar Allen Poe work to intrigue with. MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH is a chilling but excellent little tale about a selfish prince and a raucous party. This episode we discuss Poe's life, the allegories of color and time, American Romanticism, and...well kayfabe. Love you all! We're glad to be back.

S2E9 - Night of the Living Dead (1968)

May 24, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 127 MB

George A. Romero's first foray into the deep dark recesses of the "zombie apocalypse" subgenre surprised audiences of all kinds in 1968. Night of the Living Dead is a testament to what you can do with a minimal budget and a completely unique idea: basically create a new type of movie entirely. Night of the Living Dead is a sleeper hit of the highest order. Nobody, not even Romero, was prepared for how big it would be and how it essentially change the landscape of the horror genre from that p...

S2E8 - Jaws (1975)

May 09, 2020 20:43 - 1 hour - 104 MB

Yeah, we're finally doing it. What could even be typed in this description that you haven't already heard or known about one of the most iconic movies ever made? Jaws is a monolith in film history but rather easy to tackle from a purely informational standpoint. However, should we simply ignore how relevant it is to this very particular time in history? Guess again. Buckle up for an episode that might hit a little too close to home.

S2E7 - The Yeti Part II: Theories

May 02, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 65.9 MB

Here's the second and final part of our series on the Yeti! This episode we discuss some interesting theories including bears, neanderthals, and, well, aliens. Nothing is solved and we goof off even more, but hopefully you still find it informative! Enjoy!

S2E6 - The Yeti Part I: History

April 24, 2020 16:41 - 1 hour - 79 MB

There's oil in them there Yeti bones. We're trying something different this episode. We're talking about cryptids, because we want to. You can't stop us. But maybe you will be entertained an informed in the process. Learn about the history of Mt. Everest, a strange event involving actor Jimmy Stewart, and a bit about the mysterious Barun Valley. Also, this is part 1 of 2.

S2E5 - Leprechaun (1993)

March 20, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 73.4 MB

It's a hopelessly, horrible, overplayed and overused stereotype and on paper most people should hate it...but it's also enjoyable in the worst way possible. It's Leprechaun. While the year of 1993 would see the rise of such icons as Jurassic Park and Mrs. Doubtfire later in the year, it really started off with a bang when this was released. It began as a kid-friendly film inspired by a Lucky Charms commercial but became a multi-sequel black comedy b-horror franchise. It's exactly what you ex...

They're Bad #5: The Mangler (1995)

March 06, 2020 18:00 - 46 minutes - 42.4 MB

It's somehow simultaneously the worst and best movie we've ever covered on They're Bad. Tobe Hooper's intense failure of 1995, The Mangler is a one-of-a-kind film that must be seen to be believed. How to you have such a perfect cast and crew turn out something so...well, frankly, baffling? Your number one question by the end probably won't be, "why does Robert Englund still praise this film?" and more than likely will actually be, "why the hell was it shot in South Africa?"

S2E4 - Ring/The Ring, Part 1: Ring, Ringu, and The Ring (2002)

February 28, 2020 18:24 - 2 hours - 119 MB

CONTENT WARNING, TRIGGER WARNING: SEXUAL ASSAULT, RAPE (When we begin discussing the plot of the book and when we talk about changes to the story with the 1998 adaptation) "Seven days..." Americans and other English-speaking listeners might be fairly familiar with Gore Verbinsky's 2002 adaptation of the Koji Suzuki story Ring in his film The Ring, but how many of you knew that the story started life as a novel? And if maybe you're of the select few English-speakers that have read the origi...

S2E3 - The Blair Witch Project (1999)

February 22, 2020 18:00 - 1 hour - 68 MB

It's not exactly what one would call a masterpiece. In fact, it's kind of intentionally shitty and it succeeds in that. However, what The Blair Witch Project lacks in execution, it almost makes up for in style. Definitely the marketing was clever and the presentation was right, but with a plot so bare and the lack of any visible antagonist, how did it become such a sleeper hit? How did it become maybe the most successful found footage movie in history? Hopefully we answer some of those quest...

S2E2 - My Bloody Valentine (1981)

February 14, 2020 18:00 - 1 hour - 87.2 MB

"There's more than one way to lose your heart" It's the long-forgotten slasher classic that people talk about less and less every year, but it can be argued that it's a classic up there with anything comparable of the era. My Bloody Valentine is a labor of love, if you'll pardon the pun, and it's a shame that it was so heavily censored upon it's released. It might have become an all-time classic otherwise if it had been released in its full form initially. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day w...

S2E1 - The Shining: The Definitive Episode

January 18, 2020 22:03 - 2 hours - 125 MB

"This inhuman place creates human monsters" It's perhaps one of Stephen King's most famous and lauded works, and for good reason. The Shining's expert pacing and excellently crafted atmosphere as well as the pointed internal dialogue of the characters craft a stunning tale of horror that has endured for several decades. Then, Stanley Kubrick came through in 1980 to release the incredibly popular and equally masterful movie adaptation, however King himself never quite took to it. Join us and...

S1E32 - Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)

December 27, 2019 18:00 - 1 hour - 81.1 MB

It has plenty of kitsch but what it lacks in taste it makes up for in fun and execution. The premise is simple and it does exactly what it says on the tin, but Killer Klowns From Outer Space is a passion project of the Chiodos brothers and it shows. If you want a truly entertaining and goofy B horror film, there's not much better of a place to start. We honestly couldn't get through this episode without having a little fun with it so hopefully you enjoy the season finale of season 1! Thank y...

S1E31 - Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984)

December 12, 2019 18:00 - 1 hour - 93.1 MB

CONTENT WARNING: THIS FILM CONTAINS SCENES OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS BEFORE LISTENING. Maybe we're reading a bit too much into this one, and if we did, it wouldn't be the worst thing we've ever done honestly. If this were just another slasher though, this wouldn't be as nearly as long of an episode as it turned out to be. Silent Night, Deadly Night manages to somehow come off as understanding and empathetic to those with PTSD in an era where the disorder was just beginning ...

They're Bad #4: The Gingerdead Man (2005)

December 04, 2019 18:00 - 42 minutes - 39 MB

This movie is awful. It's pretty much that simple. None of us like it really in any way but we do have an interesting discussion about what constitutes a cult film and what makes a good cult film more importantly. Gary Busey, you're wrong for this one.

S1E30 - Phantasm (1979)

November 15, 2019 19:55 - 1 hour - 50 MB

It contains almost all of the seemingly standardized criteria for a classic B-movie: low budget, convoluted plot, and ALIENS. However, Phantasm in retrospect seems to be a cut above the regular 70's B-movie schlock. There's something about the very dreamy atmosphere and the imposing and domineering presence of the aptly named "Tall Man" that sets this film apart from others that have similar qualities. We know it has a cult following but do many of you know the story of how it was made? It's...

S1E29 - Frankenstein: The Definitive Episode

October 31, 2019 17:01 - 3 hours - 181 MB

In this absolutely massive Halloween special we close out the month with an extensive analysis of the entirety of everything relating to Frankenstein, the masterpiece novel first published (anonymously) by Mary Shelley in 1818. This episode really covers all of the bases: the 1931 Universal adaption, Young Frankenstein (1974), and even Mary Shelley's Frankenhole, the little-known Adult Swim show from 2010.

S1E28 - Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)

October 25, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 93.5 MB

"Happy happy Halloween, Halloween, Halloween..." It's the black sheep of the Halloween franchise. A story very much contained to one world and one world only and fans of the franchise are sometimes polarized on it. When Halloween III: Season of the Witch was released in 1982, people weren't sure what to make of it. It had a weird Stonehenge plot with an even weirder subplot about androids. It was just all around confusing when everyone was expecting another film featuring the infamous Micha...

Episode 27 - Scream (1996)

October 17, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 94.8 MB

"What's your favorite scary movie?" In the 90's we had a bit of a slasher hangover after the onslaught of franchises and seemingly endless entries and sequels to those franchises bombarded us in the 80's. So when we rounded the corner in the following decade we needed a hangover cure, so to speak. Something that would refresh us and make us believe that horror wasn't just a set of unrelenting gore fests one after the other. We needed something smarter. Scream was that hangover cure.

Episode 26 - Alien (1979)

October 10, 2019 17:16 - 1 hour - 92.5 MB

It's probably the best fusion of science fiction and horror ever put to film. It completely redefined what a movie set in space should or could be. Without it, the landscape of movies today might be considerably different. Alien in 1979 boldly went where no other movie had dared venture up to that point. If not for the sheer terror it inflicted then it could also be praised simply for it's art design, music, or commentary separately alone. Join us as we begin October with one of the best mov...

Episode 25 - Halloween (1978)

September 05, 2019 18:20 - 1 hour - 71.4 MB

"The night HE came home!" It's only one of the most important and most influential films on the slasher sub-genre as well as an important stop-gap between the gritty one-off slashers of the early 70's and the mayhem-filled sequel fest that was the 80's: Halloween. How does it hold up in modern times though? Hard to say exactly but we discuss our personal opinions on it. What is the importance of sex here? What are some themes?

S1E24 - Silent Hill (Game, 1999)

August 13, 2019 16:53 - 1 hour - 81.3 MB

Silent Hill is considered by many to be the most influential entry on modern survival horror games. It's intense atmosphere, stylistic camera angles, and mysterious plot all come together to make it a masterpiece, even 20 years later. Are there problems with it in retrospect? Of course. Nothing and no one is perfect, but nothing here is so detrimental that it ruins the whole thing, and that is really saying something after two decades.

They're Bad #3: The Mothman Prophecies (2002)

August 06, 2019 17:00 - 47 minutes - 43.4 MB

In 1966 in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, some weird shit started happening. A series, or "flap", of UFO sightings, paranormal activity, general weirdness, and most famously, sightings of a giant winged humanoid dubbed "The Mothman" all occurred within a two year span. All of this culminated in the collapse of the Silver Bridge, resulting in the deaths of 46 people. For this whole two year period, parapsycholgist and Fortean author John Keel was present. The resulting book that stemmed from ...

S1E23 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)

July 30, 2019 16:53 - 1 hour - 66 MB

It's perhaps the most Texas horror film ever made. 12 years after the debut of the chilling original, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 takes the franchise in a different direction, and we're totally here for it. It adds comedy, new characters, and enough Texas porn to make you wanna drink a Shiner while square dancing. Tobe Hooper was smart not to make the same film twice, and despite what critics think about it, this sequel is a nice change. This episode we discuss the development of the Leath...

July 16, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 67.6 MB

"Hi! I'm Chucky! Wanna play?" One of the last great slasher franchises of the 80's comes to life in 1988 with Don Mancini's Child's Play. This is the movie that started your fear of dolls and makes you question reality with several key scenes of quiet uncertainty. There's some intagible quality about this movie that really makes it unsettling in a real sense. Maybe it's that sort of seeing-something-in-the-corner-of-your-eye type thing.

"You must suffer me to go my own dark way." A book?! Yes, we do cover ALL things horror-related, and that includes literature. This time we're talking about Robert Louis Stevenson's gothic horror triumph, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the tale of an ambitious chemist who let his intrusive thoughts run rampant as an alternate personality (aided by drugs).

S1E19 - A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985)

June 25, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 70 MB

"The man of your dreams is back!" Literally agreed on by many critics as "the gayest horror movie ever" and certainly a now classic gay cult film, A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge is much deeper than the average slasher sequel would have you believe. More tinged by the story that happened behind the scenes rather than the plot itself, Freddy's Revenge is a curious glance into the pre-AIDS crisis era of the mid 80's that shows us that even gay media can sometimes shine through i...

June 18, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 77.3 MB

"MEAT!" We finish our three-part series on the fantastic Clive Barker with Nightbreed, an interesting synthesis of horror and fantasy. More akin to Labyrinth and Dark Crystal than Hellraiser, Nightbreed shows us how far Barker's world-building can really go in a film setting. It's dense. Very dense. Lots of lore to cover. But more than just the story elements the movie represents an allegory for persecution of disadvantaged groups. We talk about police militarization, the Stonewall riots, a...

June 11, 2019 23:00 - 1 hour - 72.4 MB

"Be my victim" The adaptation of Clive Barker's short story The Forbidden might be the best adaptation of his work ever put to film. With Jordan Peele's remake looming on the horizon we look at the 1992 film that changed several things from the original story but all for the better. We talk about the Toxteth Riots, the history of Cabrini-Green, and urban legends. Truly a deep dive into a fantastic film.

"We'll tear your soul apart" The first in our series of Clive Barker focused content is the most recognizable one: Hellraiser! It introduced the world to Barker's excellent world-building abilities. We talk about bondage, the dangers of obsession, the horrors of capitalism, and the suppression of gay media. This one is very deep.

S1E15 - Get Out

May 21, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 82.8 MB

Jordan Peele's first film says much more about the black experience in America than any horror film or even any other type of film may ever say. It's truly a masterpiece. There's some deep discussion this episode. As white people we try our best to deep dive here while still being sensitive and tactful. We talk about the black experience, hypnosis, and the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiments. This might be our most serious but interesting episode yet.
