  • Oh My God!

    I’ve been listening since the beginning with the other hosts. While I also had some complaints with them, Shelby is killing me. You have to stop saying Oh My God every 2 minutes, I’m sorry but it’s very hard to listen to.

  • The Falloff is Incredible

    It took about six months but I listened to the entire catalog of episodes with “the Dark Trio.” This show had become that good. Then, Megan and Jon left. Zena needed them. She’s trying but the revolving door of guest hosts haven’t helped matters. Shelby seems like a great person but her horror takes and lack of knowledge in anything past 1996 leaves a lot to be desired. What was once a great podcast is now a dud. And, it’s a real shame. This podcast represents Bloody Disgusting while providing ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Talk or Torch: STARRY EYES (2014) ft. Directors Kevin Kölsch & Dennis Widmyer
Q: What is the name of the production company that Sarah auditions for?
Astrayus Pictures.
The Minds Behind THE DÆMON!
Q: How did the idea for the story come about?
Matt and I were pushed by a combination of personal life experiences, a desire to make something authentic, and a practical need to overcome the limitations of a first feature. We wanted to weave grief and trauma into a cosmic horror framework without relying on clichés, using a secluded location to amplify both atmosphere and character dynamics.
#265 - RAWHEAD REX (1986) + SCREAMBOX April Sneak Peek | Talk or Torch
Q: Shelby: What collection was the original Rawhead Rex story published in?
Books of Blood, volume three, with acknowledgment that Barker's short story appeared in Books of Blood (not Flesh).
#265 - RAWHEAD REX (1986) + SCREAMBOX April Sneak Peek | Talk or Torch
Q: Tony: Who says in Rawhead Rex you have very dirty eyes?
The line is delivered by a character in the film; the exact speaker is not clearly resolved in the podcast, but the moment is part of the trivia round.
#265 - RAWHEAD REX (1986) + SCREAMBOX April Sneak Peek | Talk or Torch
Q: Zena: What kind of comic book was Robbie Hallenbeck reading right before he's murdered?
Shelby and Zena note it was a scary comic, likely a Star Wars title based on their discussion, with true/false confirmation later.
