  • Horror Podcastery FTW!

    I've been getting into horror cinema a bit more in the last couple years. The Padded Room Podcast has given me a lot of new properties to check out, both good and questionable. The hosts really love the genre and come at each episode with a great deal of knowledge and noticeably interest in giving horror its due.

    If you're a horror fan, this is a podcast you need on your list! Plus, check out Episode 83 on The Fog vs. The Fog. It's interesting to see how those two versions of the story compare!... more
