If only the host didn’t keep saying ‘yeah’ and ‘mmmm’ every bloody time someone else opens their bloody mouth. Now that’s horror to my ears!
This is the gold standard for all things horror related in the world of podcasting.
I’m so glad I found this podcast and have been listening since the first season. I adore Mike and love the guests he brings on to discuss horror films. I resonate a lot with the type of humor on here as well. It’s such an escape for me and the only Patreon I consistently stay subscribed to. Such an awesome community. The layout with the evolution of subgenres is super cool and knowledgeable. I always recommend this podcast a lot to my friends who love horror.
Stop worrying all the time if Americans get the references. Aussies get it.
The best horror movie podcast out there bar none. Mike is a great and very likeable host and his guests are very knowledgeable and bring great depth to each episode. Highly recommended.
