This is constantly in my ears. Great takes and well researched!
Could do without the obnoxious accents and 15 minutes of talking like Chucky because Edwardistruth is laughing like a drunk lady at a bar. But when is Edwardistruth NOT laughing. Only when he is talking about “screening a film.” Pretentious dweeb.
The Cherry Picker pod is my favorite podcast. I’ve been listening to it since day one and have watched Zack Cherry on YouTube before the channel was created. The two hosts, Zack and Eddie, are fun to listen to whether it’s on topic of the film or if it’s a tangent they often go on. The show is very informative and funny. As a horror nerd, I recommend this pod to everyone I know who’d be interested.
Always such a fun ride listening to these two!
I’m currently in film school and am working a manual labor job I absolutely hate. My life pretty much revolves around horror movies and it’s nice to have you guys to keep me company while I spend hours lifting boxes in trailers. Regardless, your pod is also objectively great. You guys both offer different but valid perspectives. Zack is normally tapped into the logical side of things, and Eddie is on the emotional. The dichotomy is perfect and if you’re looking for a horror podcast. You really c... more

Two hosts bring a affectionately nerdy, analytically minded approach to horror cinema, pairing thorough film analysis with personable banter. Episodes routinely explore production trivia, special effects, franchise lore, and behind-the-scenes context while weaving in audience input via live chats and Patreon polls. A signature feature is a long-running, interactive vote on which characters “deserve” death, creating a playful, community-driven arc across episodes. Notable strengths include deep genre knowledge, clear chemistry between hosts, and timely guest appearances that illuminate industry perspectives and marketing dynamics in contemporary horror. Listeners can expect thoughtful dissections of both classic and newer titles, plus audien... more
