  • Pleasantly Surprised

    I follow this page on Facebook and would occasionally make comments, so I was curious about the actual podcast and what a surprise. I enjoyed the analysis and breakdowns and comparisons of the films discussed. I can follow the discussion and see the move again due to the content. Very much enjoyed it. I will continue listening 👂

  • Amazingly and beautifully thoughtful!

    I discovered this podcast at the beginning of last year and joined the subscriber group the day George had a watch party for In a Violent Nature and so glad I did! I’ve become a better horror fan because of it. A plus podcast! I’m not as active in the group as I’d like to be but donating to the very affordable group is a no brainer. Thank you George!!

  • Love this podcast!!!

    The host and the contents have really expanded my enjoyment of the genre. I’ve added many of the movies that have been discussed to my “must see” list. Most of my friends do not share my love for all things horror so this is like chatting with a friend! Thank you for such entertaining content.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Our Favorite Horror Of The Year (so far...)
Q: What major shift in genre dominance did the data reveal, and what might be driving that shift?
The data shows psychological horror rising near the top, overtaking traditional slashers, likely reflecting contemporary anxieties and a blurring of lines between horror and other genres, where more serious, darker tones are becoming prominent.
Our Favorite Horror Of The Year (so far...)
Q: What was the driving idea behind compiling the six-month horror review, and how was it assembled?
It started with community letterboxd rankings, which were merged with additional movie data (genre, runtime, budget, box office, release details) and then processed in a data warehouse to create dashboards that tell the story of the community's viewing habits and trends beyond a single list.
Horror AMA
Q: What are the best Halloween-themed anthologies and best made-for-TV horror movies?
Best Halloween-themed anthologies include a book called Haunted Nights, edited by Ellen Datlow, who is known for her diverse samples in horror writing.
