It's important to have friends. People who can be relied upon in both good times and bad. But if you're on a cave adventure, and you suddenly come upon an unexpected, hostile threat, can you really count on those people? The ladies in The Descent (2005), just happen to face such a challenge.

More child trauma? Two episodes in a row? Apparently, we just can't get enough. When little Peter hears knocking, and then a voice, coming from his wall, his parents seem desperate to discourage him from pursuing an explanation. But, as the tagline for the movie says, "sooner or later, family secrets creep out." And in this movie, something actually does creep out! Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr, and Cleopatra Coleman star in Cobweb (2023).

David Cronenberg's cathartic exercise on film, a result of a personal custody battle, is not all body horror. There is genuine child and family trauma at its core. And because of that, The Brood (1979) is not always a pleasant watch. Perhaps Cronenberg's most personal film, it still packs quite a punch some 45 years later.

A ballerina vampire must get bored between recitals, I guess. Especially considering that if you're immortal, you probably have A LOT of recitals. So, who can blame Abigail for wanting to kill some of her father's henchpeople in her spare time?

We're kicking off our new A-Z of Horror Series with Abigail (2024)!

After 5 years, I guess that it's finally time to talk about a Nicole favorite for our 135th episode. And I can't even complain, because it's a horror comedy love letter to George Romero's zombie classics. But that's ridiculous! Don't say the Z word! We present to you, what can only be, the SHAUNNIVERSARY! It's Shaun of the Dead (2004)!

The Final Chapter for Friday the 13th: The Episode? I'm afraid so. One movie does feature a guest appearance by one Fred Krueger, so there's that. And the other is a reboot attempt that fared well at the box office. But no! That's all. This Voorhees guy is finished! Maybe.

But while you're waiting, you may as well hear our opinions of the 11th and 12th entries in the Friday the 13th film series. One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, Jason's at your door, in Freddy vs. Jason (2003)! And then from there, welcome to Crystal Lake. Again. It's Friday the 13th (2009)!

Do you believe in cryptids? Is Bigfoot, or some variation like the Fouke Monster, really out there? And if they are, are they just lonely, but shy creatures? Or are they genital-ripping monstrosities who want to mate with you? Look, we really don't know. But we'll try to answer these very important questions.

We want to believe! But if these movies are any indication, you may want to use caution if you decide to go camping. Grab your guitar and serenade the sasquatch, while we discuss The Legend of Boggy Creek (1972), Night of the Demon (1980), and Willow Creek (2013). And please, mind your hogs, regardless of how much they weigh!

After the length of that last episode, you may have thought that we were dead. But no, we have one final stop before we can escape the Summer of Action! Well, two technically.

But if we're going to escape from two of America's major cities, we may need help from someone with experience. Thankfully, Snake Plissken always seems to get captured at the most convenient times, when some serious rescue or recovery situation presents itself. Better team up with Snake and give this a listen if you want to be the Duke of Podcast Listeners, a number one! Break out of summer with John Carpenter's Escape from New York (1981) and Escape from L.A. (1996)!
