Run across that causeway because we're opening the Patreon vault and diving head first into Danny Boyle's unexpectedly weird #28YearsLater (2025) after decades of anticipation.
It's Act I of a planned trilogy, but does it stand on its own?

Feels like we just recorded this episode yesterday, but I guess that’s what happens when you release your sequels 7 months apart: 😂
The writing was on the wall, but I'm devastated that #TheTestamentOfAnnLee didn't get a single Oscar nomination. Amanda Seyfried deserved one of those Best Actress slots.

This was buried in a press email for Neon's upcoming Steven Soderbergh movie 'The Christophers'. Happy to see this mentioned after Maika Monroe confirmed production delays back in October.

I'd be willing to forgive the absence of passion for the original #ANACONDA, the 1-dimensional character "arcs," the SyFy era-lookingCGI snake, the unnecessary gold mining subplot and the complete and utter lack of *any* thrills in the snake attack department....
....if this were actually funny.

Today on the Main Feed: Gather your closest group of friends and get ready to head to the Amazon rainforest because we're discussing Tom Gormican's 2025 reboot of #Anaconda.
Unfortunately, our anacondas don't want none of this, hun.

The *only* thing I remembered about CONGO was Tim Curry’s death, but there’s actually a lot of fun to be had here! Very very dumb fun, but fun nonetheless!
Tomorrow on Patreon: fire up that diamond laser gun because our first audio commentary of the year is on the utterly ridiculous and entertaining CONGO

Trying not to get too excited for #ReturnToSilentHill because I've been burned by this franchise before, but MAN. Every still that's been coming out over the past few weeks has me more and more excited.
Today, it was "OMG THE RADIO!"
What can I say? I'm easy to please, I guess. 😅

A slasher where absolutely NO ONE gets killed at the eponymous location. Bold choice, #NightSchool!
Pull that severed head out of the aquarium and grab a pomegranate to take with you into the shower (seriously) because we're discussing Ken Hughes' Boston-set slasher #NightSchool (1981)!

It was such a treat to hop on one of my co-hosts other podcasts to talk about Charlie Polinger's superb #ThePlague. It's the first movie I've seen to truly capture the cruelty of pre-teen boys (it helps that all of the actors are age-appropriate). Big recommend!
Today on Patreon: @conrad-esq.bsky.social and @joelipsett.bsky.social are joined by @horrorqueers.bsky.social' @tracedthurman.bsky.social to discuss Charlie Polinger's debut feature, The Plague (2025).

I recently got to guest on the incredible @horrorqueers.bsky.social podcast to talk about none other than SALO 💩
This has been one of my fav guest spots on a podcast not only because I adore this film, but also because Trace and Joe were such wonderful hosts. Have a listen!

Wipe that shit-eating grin off your face and heed all of the content warnings (seriously), because we're discussing Pier Paolo Pasolini's notorious anti-fascist 1975 film #Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom. Tagging in for the convo is @zobowithashotgun.bsky.social, co-host of the Tainted Love podcast!

I hadn't revisited Josh Trank's #Chronicle since I first saw it over a decade ago, but it holds up!
Touch that alien rock and film yourself doing *everything* because we are talking about Josh Trank's superhero (villain?) film, CHRONICLE (2012).
