  • Not for me

    I think this is simply not for me: one person who has seen a horror movie tells her friends, who don’t like horror movies, about it, and they constantly react with “oh my God” or “ewww” or the like. This goes on for almost as long as the movie itself would take to watch.

    There are some attempts to analyze the movie, but most of the narration is simply “…and then he goes into the house….” The listening ladies speculate as to themes and character motivations and whatnot, but they see through a g... more

  • Good

    This podcast is one of my fav podcasts about horror movies. I’m only 12, and has probably watched waaaay too many horror movies for how old I am. There are 100’s of movies that interest me, but I can’t bring myself to watch, such as the Texas chainsaw massacre, the saw franchise, and the human centipede.

  • Love this podcast so much

    I love listening to this podcast! The friendship, the banter, and of course the recaps. I love scary movies and often pick my next watch by going to their feed and scrolling until I find a title I haven’t seen so I can listen to the episode after!

  • Somehow incredibly wholesome and full of love despite the horror movie content. Lovely humans talking about horrible movies in sick am engaging way. Sammy is an expert story teller who will give you goose bumps but the atmosphere keeps it from being toooo scary to listen to (despite being too scary to watch).

OBSESSION with Michael Johnston and Megan Lawless

IS GOD IS with Mallori Johnson
Q: What was Mallori Johnson's process in shaping Ania's character?

FACES OF DEATH with Daniel Goldhaber & Isa Mazzei
Q: What was your relationship to horror growing up, and did a specific film shape it for you?

READY OR NOT 2: HERE I COME with Samara Weaving
Q: What makes the sequel feel like a continuation of the original while introducing new elements?

Q: How did Nina Kiri approach playing Evie, especially with the pregnancy angle?
Nina describes grounding Evie in a specific need to acknowledge her feelings and the progression of the pregnancy as a narrative pivot, using denial as a tool to navigate fear and maintain an authentic, grounded performance across escalating supernatural events.
