Wonderful insight and straightforward opinions.
Wonderful insight and straightforward opinions.
Entertaining and fun podcast with a good team discussing classic and not so classic horror movies from the 80’s
Brian Scott. Horror movie fanboy on Twitter Finally a horror podcast that celebrates movies and doesn’t rip them for cheesiness. Love the attention to detail with camera angles etc as heard in night of the demons episode. Just a great all around horror podcast.
As far as a podcast goes it’s one of those bottom of the totem pole ones. I’ve heard worse, to be fair. This is a local radio station cast. The DJs are much older than the listeners, so it’s hard to really identify with them and follow their logic. Informative, but not entertaining. Not a great podcast. Maybe a good radio show for their state. Not a good podcast.
