- Pleasing and info-rich
The combination of subject matter (less well-known horror films) and style (low-key but engaged) is very fortuitous for me. The hosts’ speaking styles are so comfortable from a listening standpoint that I can enjoy any episode.

Smart and funny! I listen to a lot of movie podcasts and I clicked with this one right away. So many podcasts about obscure movies are either laughing at the movies or they’re overly laudatory, but Lance and Erica just want to open up discussions.
