  • You ever watch a movie and immediately need to share it with your friends? The Fright Pub hosts are a great balance of knowledge, comedy and realness. Sometimes the movie is so good you spend most of your time drinking and raving. Other times, it is so bad you spend the evening talking about everything but the movie. Either way, I always feel like I'm hanging out with my favorite people and having a good laugh.

  • Great fun

    This show is a great listen. It gives good analysis of genre movies, both memorable and those you wish you could forget. The good films are given their due. The bad films are appropriately punished for what they did to humanity.

  • Intelligent and thought-provoking!

    I have yet to listen to an episode of this podcast and not laugh out loud. There are films that they review that I never would’ve watched if it wasn’t for this podcast. I never would’ve thought that there was any depth to a horror film but they make me see it! It’s also really obvious that this is a passion project for all three hosts and it’s just a joy to listen to.
