  • Suspiria (1977)

    01:34:34|
    This week, we’re stepping into the trippy, terrifying world of Suspiria. Our resident horror fanatic is ready to gush about Dario Argento’s masterpiece: witches, neon lights, and enough blood to fill a swimming pool. Meanwhile, our scaredy-pants co-host is wondering why ballet schools can’t just have normal problems like bad Wi-Fi instead of, you know, ancient covens. Join us as we break down the film's wild visuals, creepy score, and why the color red should probably come with a warning label.If you enjoy the show, please subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Piranha (1978)

    01:33:30|
    In this episode, we dive into Piranha (1978), a campy, blood-soaked creature feature from the mind of Joe Dante. These killer fish are on the loose, but is this a film that only hardcore horror fans can stomach, or is it a bite-sized entry for those who don’t typically like scary movies?We break down the film's blend of suspense, humor, and gore, and our co-host Sean shares his take as a non-horror fan. Does Piranha sink or swim as a gateway into the genre? Tune in to find out if this aquatic terror is safe for even the most horror-averse listeners to enjoy!If you enjoy the show, please subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Jaws (1975)

    01:58:40|
    In this episode, we plunge into the cinematic ocean with Jaws to start our "Creatures of the Deep" season. As always, Matt is all about the thrills, but somehow, he keeps forgetting the name of the genius behind the camera—Steven Spielberg! Meanwhile, Sean gives his perspective on Robert Shaw's sobriety level during each take. We explore the suspense, the unforgettable shark, and why this film remains a cornerstone of horror.
