  • Great Podcast

    The hosts have really good chemistry with one another. They do a great job keeping me entertained with the humor. Nothing is forced either which is nice.The games they play at the end are pretty fun too. Solid 5/5 good job guys!

  • Painful

    The hosts can’t string more than five words together without a “like” being thrown in because their vocabulary’s, like,so limited. Boring.

  • I don't think so

    Sooo, this episode on the Devils Rejects starts with every pod member describing how bad the movie was, taking them days to get though, and they don't even want to talk about it...followed by 10 straight minutes of Sidney literally whining like a child (don't get me wrong, I agree with the sentiments and think this is a terrible movie), but unbearably immature...then ads that break in and out of the cast repeatedly and jarringly, with the same ads playing multiple times (as though a mistake - no... more

  • Still good

    The new hosts are good—different but still good! Paying for ad-free would make this a solid four stars. But otherwise, the incredible number, loudness, obnoxiousness, and repetitiveness of the ads is on a whole other level from other ad-supported podcasts I listen to. I do enjoy one episode every month or two, but the over-stuffing with ads keeps me from being a regular. On a more positive note: it’s great that they include movies outside the pop mainstream.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

In The Mouth of Madness Review
Q: What did you think of the Lovecraftian influences and the concept of reality blending with fiction?
We saw it as the strongest asset, with the film leaning into a meta narrative that makes you question the nature of reality and the power of storytelling, which kept the discussion engaging even when some effects felt dated.
Undertone Review with Taylor W.
Q: Before we get into it, Taylor, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself and why you want to throw your hat into the ring to be a co-host?
Taylor introduces herself, noting her background in Cleveland, Ohio, and her previous work in conservation education, explaining why she's drawn to the show's blend of horror and discussion.
Iron Lung Review with Gina Teeters
Q: What are your top five horror movies?
Gina mentions favorites like The Witch, Midsommar, Hereditary, The Void, and Blair Witch Project.
Iron Lung Review with Gina Teeters
Q: What did you think of Iron Lung?
Iron Lung is described as atmospheric and moody, but some criticized its length and lack of clarity in the plot.
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple Review with Mandy Boggs
Q: What brings you here? What made you interested in coming on the show today?
