Fri, 13 Mar 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Take our hand and come with us to the magical world of Australia as we tackle one of the most genuinely great horror movies of the 2020's "Talk to Me".

Trust me, it's relevant.

Ash (aka Space Durdened)

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Look, there were just too many potential names for this one. The sky on this planet comes pre-shroomed. The cultural context of the medic bot's voice is troubling. People who find a giant AC vent installed into the ground of a planet and throw a rock in deserve to die. The biggest moment of horror in this movie is only horrifying once you've seen all of it. It's a wild one, though not as memorable as any of this description implies.

Who's Responsible for this?

Director: Flying Lotus
Writers: Jonni Remier
Stars: Eliza Gonzales, Aaron Paul, Iko Uwais, Kate Elliot

Blink Twice (aka Not the Bob of a Hero) w/ Amanda Meadows, Vita Ayala, Emmanuel Lipscomb

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 10:00:00 GMT

This movie is one big trigger warning. Channing Tatum has his evil twin goatee so you know it's on. I've seen Heathers, so I would never do drugs near Christian Slater. Alia Shawkat has never survived a horror movie and that's not about to change now. If I walked into my therapist office and Kyle Maclahlan was my therapist, I'd turn around and leave.

Who's responsible for this?

Director: Zoe Kravitz
Writers: Zoe Kravitz
Stars: Naomi Ackie, Channing Tatum, Alia Shawkat, Christian Slater, Haley Joel Osment, Geena Davis, Saul Williams, Kyle Maclachlan

What should you check out next?

Vita - Perfect Blue, 20th Century Boys, Bitch Slap
Emmanuel - Promising Young Woman, Our Talons Can Crush Galaxies
Amanda - No Other Choice by Park Chan Wook, Black Arms to Hold You Up by Ben Passmore

Birds (aka Annie Hayworth Gay Icon)

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 10:00:00 GMT

We came up short a guest this week, so it's just the three hosts talking about a true classic where a whole town of people get taken out by some angry pigeons. But the real story of this thing is the red hot chemistry between Tippi Hedron and Suzanne Pleshette as Melanie and Annie. Sure, they're talking about a man that both of them claim to have the hots for, but the only chemistry happening is this slow burn yuri.

Who's Responsible for this?

Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Writers: Daphne Du Maurier, Evan Hunter
Stars: Tippi Hedron, Rod Taylor, Jessica Tandy, Suzanne Pleshette, Veronica Cartwright

What to check out next:

Emily- THX 1138
Ben - Peacemaker season 2
Jeremy - The Man who Knew to much, Rear Window

Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (aka Les Incompétents) with Justin Richards

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 10:00:00 GMT

You've seen the slasher from every possible point of view...or have you? Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is about an aspiring slasher who brings along a documentary crew for the ride to show them what he does and how he does it. The humor is dark. The references are thick on the ground. The twists, well, you'll have to see those. This one created a hard point of disagreement between our usually agreeable hosts. Jeremy and Bee go eight rounds about whether the end of this movie works. Tell us what you think!

Who's responsible for this?

Director: Scott Glosserman
Writers: Scott Glosserman, David J Stieve
Stars: Nathan Baesel, Angela Goethals, Zelda Rubestein, Robert Englund, Scott WIlson, Bridgett Newton, Kate Miner

Recommendations:

Mother! (aka I Did My F*cking Best, okay?) with Jude Ellison Doyle

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 10:00:00 GMT

I don't think you should listen to this episode when it comes out. I mean, it's a good episode but god if it isn't January 9th 2026 and the world's one fire and everywhere you look some horrible shit is happening and that is this fucking movie in a nutshell. This movie is horrible shit happening for two plus solid hours and it feels like a nightmare and when you run out of animes to take plot and shot details from, you gotta move on to the Christian Bible.

It's Mother! and it's a fucking ride. Buckle up.

The Anniversary Show 2025 (aka A Place for Sinners)

Fri, 02 Jan 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Every year at this time of year we review our big list of movies we've watched for the last year and try to figure out where they go on the list of all the movies we've watched before. It's a big nasty list of video nasties and every year we duke it out to decide which ones join the ranks of the elite, which ones drop into the dregs of pointless nonsense, and which ones (most of them) end up somewhere in the middle.

This year, the largest portion of our talk centers around one big question: Where does Sinners fall on the list?

Well, fucking keep it to yourself, okay? We've been going through it.

The People Under the Stairs (aka Loony Tunes, but with Child Murder ) with Jordan Blum

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Director: Wes Craven
Writers: Wes Craven
Stars: Brandon Quinton Adams (Moonwalker), Ving Rhames, Everett McGill, Wendy Robie

There are two Wes Cravens inside you: one is a very important and influential horror movie director who has changed the face of horror irrevocably forever. The other is a goofball who scores child murder with a slide whistle. The People Under the Stairs is a battle between the two of them where neither may survive.

Included in this episode:

Wes Craven attempts race commentary!
Did Wes really wanna make the Goonies?
Eat your landlord before they eat you!
After a while, old houses just develop slides that come out of the cabinets.
Horrific but somehow hilarious animal violence (when animal actors are too good for their parts)
Wes Craven says ACAB

Tucker and Dale vs Evil (aka The Aptly Named Chad) with Jodie Troutman

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 09:00:00 GMT

It's time for us to finally grant Ben's wish and set free the horror comedy that's been on their list since the first episode of this show: it's Tucker and Dale Vs Evil!

Our good friend and letterer extraordinaire Jodie Troutman is here to share in the laughs and the scares, but mostly just laughs, because Jodie doesn't do startling movies.

Prepare to spend some time in the woods with a man who is a bear and fall in love with him. Also, feel very sorry for poor Alan Tudyk and his long string of painful looking injuries.

Jodie - Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives
Emily- Bodies Bodies Bodies, The Blackening. X-Files - Bad Blood
Ben - Young Frankenstein
Jeremy - Little Evil

It's our boy Neil Jordan showing up in Pride month? Okay, we can all admit there are some things less than optimal about The Crying Game, but we're talking about The Company of Wolves and this is one queer ass Red Riding Hood reimagining. It's weird. It's beautiful. It's kind of dreamy.

Serial Mom (aka Turkey Leg Homicide) with Rachel Bellwoar

Sat, 14 Jun 2025 03:25:21 GMT

Is it a horror movie? Well, no. Or is it?

Kathleen Turner certainly slays in this movie about a mom who's completely lost it, brought to you by the good and great John Waters. And...is that a baby Matthew Lillard? Awww, he's so cute! Woah, Patty Hearts?

It's camp. It's courtroom drama. It's relentlessly making fun of "true crime" before we even really knew those words. You will not want to miss it!

Who made it?

Director: John Waters
Writers: John Waters
Stars: Kathleen Turner, Sam Waterston, Matthew Lillard, Ricki Lake, Suzanne Somers, Mink Stole, Traci Lords, Patty Hearst and L7 as Camel Lips

Recommendations:

Guest - Ken Burns
Emily- Natural Born Killers

Bride of Frankenstein (aka This IS Build a B*tch) with Jack Phoenix

Sat, 24 May 2025 02:23:58 GMT

We're kicking PRIDE off a little early because comics librarian Jack Phoenix is here and we are ready to talk about the very straight story of a man showing up to another man's house and pulling him away from his wife so that the two of them can make a human life together! Very straight. So straight. Not gay at all. Doctor Pretorius, we love you and the tiny people you've been cloning and dressing. And Una O'Connor, you and your ridiculous accent are the real MVP!

Alicia really wants it to be known that we didn't talk nearly enough about Elsa Lancaster, her marriage to Charles Laughton, and that she was in Mary Poppins. All apologies.

Who made it?

Director: James Whale
Writers: William Hurlbut, John L. Balderston, Mary Shelley

The Wailing (aka The Hills We Meet Along the Way) with Ted Anderson

Fri, 16 May 2025 09:00:00 GMT

The Wailing is a movie about a cop who is bad at being a cop, a kid who is great at being possessed, and a steep hill that will absolutely kick your ass no matter who you are.

Ted Anderson is here to discuss this moody Korean masterpiece with us as we all desperately grasp for any clue of what might be going on. One thing is for sure though, this is a real feel bad movie and at three hours long, you'll still be feeling bad the next day too!

Longlegs (AKA Just Say No to Weird Church Dolls) w/ Jason DeHart

Fri, 24 Jan 2025 10:00:00 GMT

Welcome to Longlegs, a movie where everybody is DOING A VOICE!

Nick Cage really does that Nick Cage thing you know so well. It's Silence of the Lambs with the actual Devil involved? I'll watch anything where Maika Monroe in it, but here she is playing and FBI agent tracking a psychotic serial killer. She's doing some interesting stuff with her character feeling a bit autism coded, but they never come out and say it, so your mileage may vary.

If a woman dressed as a nun shows up and your doorstep offering you a life size doll that looks exactly like you child and says you won it from a church you don't even go to, just say no. Okay? Say no to the doll.

We are joined by amazing comics academic and podcaster Jason DeHart. Check out his podcast "Words, Images, Worlds" on which Jeremy has been a guest in the past right here: https://open.spotify.com/show/1z6Q8Aps4qy8UilACZeiQB?si=250899ef46b4421c

Godzilla Minus One (aka GODZILLA HATES YOU) w/ Marcus Anderson

Fri, 20 Sep 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Y'all remember that Godzilla who was a friend to all? You know, the fierce protector of mankind against some other worse monsters? The guy that had a team of kids and a tiny monster buddy?

This ain't that Godzilla.

The Godzilla of Godzilla Minus One hates you. He hates everything about you. He hates your stupid little boat. He hates your tragic backstory. He hates your cool and slightly shady commonlaw wife. He wants to burn down your life just so he can't stomp on the cinders. This Godzilla says fuck your life, fuck them kids, fuck train in particular. Godzilla Minus One is here to ruin your day.

And it's amazing. We can't say enough about it!

You know who else we can't say enough about? Marcus Anderson! He's got a new book out called "Big Jim and the White Boy" which isn't just a retelling of Huck Finn, it's a recontextualizing of the book, the characters, Mark Twain, the books place in classrooms, libraries, and greatest of all time lists and how it's not just about taking the N word out. You gotta read this book, guys!

Dread (AKA A Movie in Need of a Skarsgård) w/ T. L. Bodine

Fri, 06 Sep 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Am I the law?
Put on your deeply mediocre wigs and flattest American accents for one of the lesser Clive Barker adaptations. It's Dread!
We're joined by author T.L. Bodine to talk about a movie that could have been called F(r)ight Club.

28 Days Later (aka In Valium Veritas) with James Asmus

Sun, 01 Sep 2024 11:00:00 GMT

This is the podcast episode that launched a new obsession for Emily: Cillian Murphy in all his splendor.

Listen, this is a movie about fast zombies, but you're mostly gonna hear us talking about Cillian Murphy's extensive nudity and his sassy hips. We are joined by the amazing and incredible James Asmus and you should immediately go order his book "Survival Street: The Radical Left" coming out soon (or in the past, if you're listening to this later)!

Our recommendations for this episode are: Cillian Murphy's hips.

Dawn of the Dead (AKA Zombie Indoor Shopping Center)

Sun, 18 Aug 2024 09:00:00 GMT

We made it! We made 200 episodes of a podcast about politics and horror movies. You're welcome!

This time we're talking about the original Dawn of the Dead. If you've ever seen a zombie in a shopping mall, you can thank George A. Romero and this movie. It's wild. It's often stupid. It was made for a buck fifty, overnight, at a shopping mall that they nearly destroyed.

Good Manners (AKA Werewolf Moses) w/ Sara Century

Fri, 05 Jul 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Let my people AWOOOOOO!
Time to talk about the Brazilian werewolves and lesbians! Good Neighbors is a fantastic film about falling in love with the absolute disaster pregnant bisexual woman who hires you to take care of her unborn supernatural child. Who hasn't been there?
The movie truly answers the question "How do we make pregnancy even more scary and fucked up?" and it turns out the answer is werewolves! Didn't see that one coming, did you?
Alicia had to cut a bunch of jokes, presumably because this one was just too funny and some people listen to this while driving and we don't want to be responsible for any traffic accidents.
Okay, but what if a podcast about horror movies started killing people? CALL ME HOLLYWOOD!

Please welcome our newest guest Tomi Trembath! Tomi brought us the extremely interesting and difficult Sam Levinson film Assassination Nation. We're talking feminism, technology, and social media. We're talking a movie with four female leads, one of them a trans actress playing a trans girl.
Meanwhile, Joel McHale is entering his creepy dad phase and we are deeply disturbed by it. I mean, he's good at it, but boy is it hard to watch.

One Cut of the Dead (AKA "Oh I'm Calm. Dead calm.") w/ Michael Tanner, Kevin Ketner, and Jay Joseph

Fri, 03 May 2024 09:00:00 GMT

It's May and that means it's Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage month! We are jumping into a group of beloved films from the Asian diaspora. We are starting with the amazing "One Cut of the Dead". It's a low budget Japanese horror film about a low budget Japanese horror film, but just when you think you've seen all the layers, you hit the midpoint of the movie and you realize you've just been staring at a tree and you're in the middle of the forest. It's an incredible work of heart and staggering genius about finding the art and love in making movies of moderate mediocracy. It's a movie about movies, but not in that way. Like, in a good way.

Underworld (AKA The Spirit of Nu Metal) w/ Phoenix Davis

Fri, 12 Apr 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Which kind of horror creature are you? Are you the wet shirtless sewer dwelling kind or the or the dry in lingerie kind?

Underworld is a movie that will have you asking how it can be so full of ideas that seem good on paper and still somehow make something so boring. Guns that shoot bullets full of daylight? A sexy vampire assassin played by Kate Beckinsale? A centuries old blood feud between sexy vampires and sexy werewolves? A secret history? An evil mentor? Werewolf Michael Sheen vs Vampire Bill Nighy? It seems impossible to screw up... and yet!

You do have to admire a movie about vampires and werewolves that constantly tells you that everything you know about vampires, werewolves, and even the details they just told you about the plot up until now is actually wrong!

We're finally talking about Underworld and you don't want to miss it!

Angry Black Girl and Her Monster (AKA Double Bag Your Hands) w/ Aaron Amos and Emmanuel Lipscomb

Sat, 03 Feb 2024 10:00:00 GMT

Happy Black History Month! And, as such, Happy Black Director's Month here on Progressively Horrified.

We're starting off hot with a new take on the Frankenstein story, "An Angry Black Girl and her Monster". In a way, it's a little bit of a "what if Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur was a horror story?" but it's also got a little bit of "The Wire" flavor to it. It's clearly made with not a lot of money, but some excellent casting choices. Some of the direction late in this one is a little puzzling, but we think it's still very much worth a watch!

Soft and Quiet (aka Nazi Pie) with Greg Silber and Joe Corallo

Fri, 19 Jan 2024 10:00:00 GMT

It's our first movie of the new year and we are starting out UPSETTING!
"Soft and Quiet" is a movie that sneaks up on you and ruins your day. It is absolutely and completely without chill of any kind. It's about a group of white women who start out by attending a regular old Nazi bookclub and by the end of the night will have committed multiple felonies/hate crimes.
It's a tight film. It's short. It's filmed in "one take" and follows these white women as things get wildly out of control. You're along for the whole ride AND WE DID NOT WANT TO BE... but... this movie does a few things really well. It's incredibly made, incredibly acted, brilliantly scripted. If it wasn't one of the single most traumatic watches we've had on this show, I'd say everybody should watch it. It is, however, incredibly traumatic and we are still talking about who we think the audience is for this and who should see it.

Ranking the Movies of 2023 Part 1 (aka 4 Movies to Hate Anybody)

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 10:00:00 GMT

2023: that was a fucking yeah, huh?

We discovered that watching their movies back to back four weeks in a row was enough to make us hate any director. My eye has only recently stopped twitching when people say the name Cronenberg. Would you believe I even got tired to Guillermo Del Toro? Whodathunk?
We caught up with Scream just in time for it to implode very publicly. We fell in love with a goofy black lesbian and her softspoken brother as they fought a sky manta ray. We learned how to murder someone with a Menu, we learned that babies are made when a woman grows an external rage womb, and we learned perhaps the least effective way to stop an apocalypse by showing up at a gay couple's cabin. But perhaps most importantly, Hellbender taught us that the real magical powers were the friends we ate along the way

Constantine (aka The Angel of Gender) w/ Jay Joseph Jr.

Fri, 29 Dec 2023 10:00:00 GMT

We've been talking about this movie since we started the podcast and now we finally did it!

Unfortunately, this film's John Constantine is from LA. Mercifully, that means Keanu doesn't have to do a British accent. Not that he can't do it. I mean, forsooth, we all remember Bram Stoker's Dracula, do we not? Instead, this time we leave it to Rachel Weisz to do an accent which basically just equates to "Americans talk low and mumble, right?". Hey, did she teach Benedict Cumberbatch? That's definitely a Greenwich Village accent, right?

But just like The Prophecy, nothing that happens in this movie really matters until Gabriel and Satan show up! Tilda Swinton's Gabriel is The Angel of Gender and Stormare's Satan is really just having the time of his life for the whole five minutes he's in the movie. This is how you become THE DEVIL.

Oh and for some reason Shia LeBeouf is here. Why? Unclear. Ask again later.

Come for the absolute masterpiece of scene chewing that is Al Pacino as The Devil, stay out of the morbid curiosity of hearing what accent is going to come out of Keanu's mouth next. His accent grows no moss, because it's a rolling stone. Don't try to pin him to any one place or syntax.
Hey, guys, did you remember that Charlize Theron is in this movie. They don't give her a ton to work with, but she's playing Florida girl for wall she's worth! There so much going on and yet, somehow, not enough. See a man learn to run while on camera. Regret paint choices that aren't even yours. Learn about the evil titties of lawyers' wives. Downright demonic nips.

Angelheart (aka The Satan who Serves) w/ Joe Corallo and Greg Silber

Fri, 15 Dec 2023 10:00:00 GMT

In which the concept of voodoo has 1980s Hollywood absolutely by the balls. They can't get enough of it. Nevermind that the version of it that makes it into movies like this is absolute nonsense and a half-hearted excuse to get Lisa Bonet dancing topless.

It's okay (it's not!) but you will get to see the devil who has spent the most time at the manicurist. Devil De Niro is the most surprisingly femme devil you're going to meet this month. He keeps his nails long and neat and he loves an accessory. He's got canes. He got rings. He will follow you across the country and pay private investigator to come have sex with you just so he can cut out your heart. The Angel Heart wants what the Angel Heart wants!

The Witches of Eastwick (aka Singularly Horny) w/ Rachael Alexandra

Fri, 08 Dec 2023 10:00:00 GMT

Satan Month continues!
In this episode, The Horror Squad is joined by Rachael Alexandra to talk about Jack Nicholson's portrayal of the Devil in The Witches of Eastwick (1987).

It's a singularly horny movie Susan Sarandon fucks stringed instruments, the devil wants Cher to step on him, and Michelle Pfeiffer just wants sempai to notice her. there's more implied sex than you can shake a horny stick at. You may have to ask yourself the question "Is Jack Nicholson sexy," but you will never have to ask yourself "Does Jack Nicholson fuck?"
Did you know George Miller directed this and there isn't a single desert car chase? Can you imagine?

The Prophecy (AKA Baby War Criminal)

Fri, 01 Dec 2023 09:00:00 GMT

A movie which could only possibly be made by a writer/director because if another person had their hands on it, it would absolutely be a half hour shorter. The pacing is bad. The story is bonkers. The lead characters are boring. The film quality is poor. Their depiction of Native Americans is pretty racist. The politics are extremely suspect.

BUT BOY DID THEY KNOW HOW TO CAST SOME MURDER ANGELS!

Christopher Walken is Gabriel, a rogue angle on a mission to start a new war in heaven. Viggo Mortenson is Lucifer. You think you know what that looks like by reading that sentence? I promise you don't. Is he sexy? I guess that depends on your response to being threatened with eating your mother's feces. We've all got our things, right? Tom Ellis he ain't.

Fri, 10 Nov 2023 10:00:00 GMT

Casey Gilley joins us to talk about one of the most amazing and under the radar horror movies of 2022, Hellbender.
You say you like horror movies about witchcraft? And horror movies about family? What about one about a family of witches who consume life to use magic?

What was your COVID project, because this little family made one of the best horror movies of the decade so far.

Men (aka The Old Man's Junk Show) w/ Joe Corallo

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 09:00:00 GMT

Boy howdy, this one's got the outstanding SEO of a "Thing" or a "Fly" with none of the inherent charm of those nouns.

Alex Garland is back and he's down to make you incredibly uncomfortable. Old man junk? Check! Rampant sexism? Check! Men giving birth to younger versions of themselves in a neverending cycle of goo? Well, have we got a treat for you! Jessie Buckley is doing some amazing work carrying this one.

What does it all mean? Who knows! But we're gonna talk it in circles until we come to some sort of horrifying conclusion that none of us are comfortable with or happy about. That's the Progressively Horrified way, you cool babies!

Evil Dead Rise (aka Chekov's Cheese Grater) w/ Lan, Adam, and Brent

Fri, 27 Oct 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Break out your antique evil vinyl collection and wake up your EDM DJ nephew, it's time to party Evil Dead Rise style! Come witness what is either the mostly wonderfully gruesome continuation of the Evil Dead legacy or the world's strangest most indirect anti-abortion argument! Maybe it's both! We haven't really figured that out yet. But really, honestly, if you average saving one out of every three of your niblings, you'll almost probably definitely be a good mom. Don't worry about it!
So grab yourself a nice wine glass to eat, grab your best doll head on a broken mop handle friend, and settle in for a night with the evil dead! We promise you'll be fed by dawn!

Piggy (aka Thank God for 30 year old teens) with Michael Tanner

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 16:00:00 GMT

YO, absolute trigger warnings for fatphobia, binge eating and any other issues with size and beauty standards you can imagine. It's honestly difficult to tell whether this movie is doing more harm or good in its representation. Casting an actual fat actress is great but then putting her in clothes that don't fit for the whole movie is less than great. Who knows? The critics liked this movie but our panel is unconvinced.
But if you're looking for the slow burn fat shame turned creepy stalker movie of your dreams, here it is.

Rec (aka Who Watches This?) w/ Jamila Rowser and Emmanuel Lipscomb

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Hispanic Heritage Month continues with another Spanish horror classic, the found footage heavyweight we can't agree how to say the name of "Red Circle Abbreviation for Record" or "wreck" or "R-E-C". We don't know.
It's time to get murdered by an old lady in her panties! It starts with a firetruck ride along and goes south very quickly. And get ready for the twist ending that probably wasn't even necessary but is definitely creepy.

If tv has taught us anything it's that soccer brings men closer and turns women into psychopathic semi-psychic sleepwalking cannibals.

Wellington Paranormal (aka Does it Play Snake?)

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 09:00:00 GMT

We're headed back to Wellington, New Zealand! It was the home of the original What We Do in the Shadows film (a show favorite) and now we pick up following the local police as they investigate a series of paranormal happenings. Is it "What if the X-Files was stupid?" or "What if cops were actually ok?"? You decide!
We talked about a few episodes, which we'll name at the top, but we totally recommend checking out the whole series!

What if, we did the X-Files, but instead of being a paranoid series about the FBI investigating weirds stuff, it was a super horny show about the Catholic church investigating weird demon shit? What if we made Luke Cage a dreamy priest man and we made that dude that was Ben on Lost henchman of evil? Could we sell that as a new show.
Yes, yes you could, it's called Evil

August is spooky tv month! We're starting it off right with a spooky cartoon whose two leads are a Jewish trans boy and an autistic Indian girl!

I'll be honest, episode 150 has kinda snuck up on us. It's a very normal episode next week.

Hocus Pocus (aka Small Town Orgy Central) Ben's Birthday

Fri, 21 Jul 2023 09:00:00 GMT

It's not gay, but it's for the gays, you know? Three fabulously witchy sisters can only come back when the blackflame candle is lit by a virgin. Thankfully, Salem, Mass. is chock-a-block with orgies. There's the high class masked Victorian one at Allison's house that she's escaping. Then there's the general town one at the dance where groovin all night long is not a problem for the parents of Salem. Who hired this rock band for the small town sockhop anyway?
Sit back and get ready to chant amuck amuck amuck with us!

Trigger warnings: Extreme violence and gore, gaslighting, harassment and bullying,

They/Them (aka Trans Kids LOVE Police) with Morgan

Fri, 09 Jun 2023 09:00:00 GMT

Trigger warning: conversion camps, conversion therapy, honey pots, shock therapy, aversion therapy, torture, nudity, transphobia, biphobia, homophobia, gaslighting, homophobic violence. rape, sexual assault.

It used to be that when you started looking for horror movies with queer content to talk about during Pride you had to settle for a lot of "feels queer" and "this straight person is a queer icon" or "queer subtext".

I have good news and bad news.

The Good News: "They/Them" from Peacock stars a dozen or so explicitly queer teen characters.

The Bad News: This movie is an absolute stinker that has no idea what it is or what it wants to do. We go from shock therapy to Glee style musical numbers of P!NK songs. It's all handled with the precision and subtlety of a Dick Cheney hunting trip.

Other good news: it does seem that non-binary people are invisible and free to move around with no restriction of gender or plot.

Other bad news: The ending of this thing should be saved for the last day of June because it is sure to propel you directly into Gay Wrath. It is next level bad. It somehow manages to be both nonsensical and undercut the entire rest of the movie. Wait till you hear about the unquestioning love and faith that a black trans woman has in the local police!

Recommendations:
Literally anything else. We do not recommend this movie. We barely even recommend this podcast, but here we are.

Malignant (aka Super Mario Body Horror) with Dave Dwonch and Bronwyn Kelly-Seigh

Fri, 19 May 2023 09:00:00 GMT

Trigger Warnings: Domestic abuse, gaslighting, hallucination, torture, blood and guts, extreme violence, compound fractures, police, mental health.

They said it was impossible, but here's the movie with a disability twist that might actually be too dumb to criticize. Your mileage may vary, but James Wan's Malignant is definitely going to elicit some reaction from you!

Wan is the most recent AAPI director we're highlighting this week, with a huge slew of horror and non-horror movies and a massive production company of his own in Atomic Monster, there are few genre directors with more influence...which is sort of the only reason I can imagine this movie got made at all.

Recommendations:
M3gan
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
These Fleeting Shadows
Gunpowder Milkshake
Nobody
Renfield
Banshees (from Scout Comics)
John Wick
The Seattle Underground (the actual place, not many of the other things probably named this in popular culture)

The Invitation (aka The Absolute Worst Vibes)

Fri, 05 May 2023 11:29:13 GMT

We open up AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Island) Heritage month by talking about our girl Karyn Kusama and The Invitation.
You know how sometimes you have a tragic divorce and your ex runs off and joins a cult for six months with her new husband? And then when they do come back they want to tell you all about the joy of death show you videos about euthanasia? And you know how your new black girlfriend thinks all of this is perfectly normal and is very cool with being shut up in a scary LA villa with a bunch of death obsessed cultists and never raises the slightest objection to any of this and acts like you're crazy for thinking it's at all strange? And then you find out your friend that supposedly has been running late left you a message saying they actually showed up early and you're pretty sure he's dead?
Has this ever happened to you?

Listen to us praise the greats, rail against the horrible, and beg and bargain with each other to place these films where we think they belong. Why do we do this? It's...hard to say actually. It jus seemed like the thing to do if I'm honest. This way you can hit the highlights or if you're in a mood for a stinker, we've got a few of those too!

Mon, 07 Feb 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Scare Level: Spoopy
Trigger Warnings: Racism, cultural appropriation, racial microagressions

Blacula (aka Give Skillet a Cape) with Aaron Amos, Shawn Pryor, Alicia Whitley

Fri, 04 Feb 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Scare Level: Spoopy
Trigger Warnings: Homophobia, racism, bury your gays, several homophobic slurs, the n-word (though used entirely by people in the community), blood and gore, potential gaslighting or hypnotism (unclear), one racist ass Dracula

It's time to talk about the original black horror movie about the man himself, Mamuwalde aka Blacula! An African Prince appeals to Count Dracula to stop the slave trade and Dracula rewards him by attempting enslave his wife, turning into a vampire, and locking him in a coffin for a few hundred years. And that's all in the first five minutes!

The Basics
- Director: William Crain
- Writers: Joan Torres, Raymond Koenig
- Stars: William Marshall, Vonetta McGee, Denise Nicholas
What’s it about?
- IMDB says: An ancient African prince, turned into a vampire by Dracula himself, finds himself in modern Los Angeles.
- This month we’re focusing on horror films with black directors and as far as it goes, this is the classic. William Crain was directing this movie when there weren’t many black directors making movies and certainly not ones that look like this. What’s everybody’s history with this movie?

Scare Level: Scary
Trigger Warnings: sexual assault, attempted rape, blood, body trauma, child death and autopsy, religious cult, flashing lights, animal death, dog death, dead nude child

The definition of a troubled production makes for an interesting if overall disappointing feature, but boy do we have a lot to say about it! If you haven't listened to our episodes on Alien and Aliens, we recommended checking those out first.

Also, is it better for a dog to die horribly or have been erased from existence?

The Basics

You're Next (aka Piss on your Levis) with Kat Calamia

Fri, 21 Jan 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spooky
Trigger Warnings:

Welcome to the watch along guide for Progressively Horrified Episode 67. Here’s some things you might want to know before you watch the movie or listen to the episode.

This week we are discussing the 2011 home invasion thriller “You’re Next”
It is directed by Adam Wingard and written by Simon Barrett.

Our hosts ranked this movie as spooky, meaning it has some legitimately scary moments, but is not among the scariest movies we’ve watched.
Some relevant trigger warnings for this movie include: family mental and emotional abuse, gaslighting, fatphobia, intense body trauma, gore, flashing lights, nudity, and violence against women.

After the music, we will talk about the movie in full, so expect spoilers.

And while you’re here, if you can, stop by our patreon at ProgressivelyHorrified.patreon.com. You’ll get extra episodes, all episodes a week early, and most importantly you’ll get to help us keep the lights on. We’d greatly appreciate it.

Topics of Discussion:

In a house full of useless rich people, a reasonably competent poor person is king
Horrible families
Catharsis
Race vs this movie
Pee on your denim
Final girls who drink and get horny

Fri, 14 Jan 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Existentially Disconcerting
Trigger Warnings: exploitative nudity, graphic violence

HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU? You're having ok day at school but then you go outside to check on your school bunny cages and all of the bunnies are dead but then you discover that there's one alive and he's hiding under the mulch in the cage but when you take him out to protect him the local gang that killed the bunnies shows back up and threatens to kill you if you don't give them the bunny to kill and they hit you with a bike chain and your girlfriend shows up to break them up and put a bandage on you? But then you're walking home together and she wants to smooch you but then your old friend that you haven't seen in a decade pops up in the middle of the forest wearing a trenchcoat and sunglasses and says something happened to his dad and he needs you to come with him, but when your girlfriend tries to come to he threatens her with a knife and says there are no girls aloud? Then he takes you to the spooky castle where he lives and tells you how his dad tried to kill him and then set himself on fire and he makes you wear a giant skull helmet that shows you the history of a demon dimension and then while you guys are going to the other room where all of his records are you get attacked by a bunch of demons with tentacles coming out of their boobs and they chase you out to his car but then when you get into the car the car develops a vagina with teeth that tries to eat you so you have to shoot the car and then walk back to the creepy castle where he shows you his elevator to his underground 80's cocaine club full of half naked dancing people and tells you the only way to become a demon is to let yourself go and dance with hot naked women, but as soon as you start to do that he breaks a bottle and starts stabbing people and then they turn into demons, so in order to save him you have to fuse with a demon and you become some sort of sexy half demon superhero that has hooves and claws and murders all the demons that used to be hot naked women and suddenly you've murdered everyone in the hot underground 80s cocaine club except your friend who is okay?

The Girl in the Woods - Interview with Misha Osherovich and Jasmine Johnson

Thu, 21 Oct 2021 16:00:00 GMT

Support us on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/progressivelyhorrified

"The Girl in the Woods" is a new series from Peacock about a girl named Carrie who is part of a cult that guards a mysterious door in the woods of the Pacific Northwest that leads to a world of monsters. After a traumatic event, Carrie goes on the run from her cult to the local logging town where she makes friends with local teens Tasha and Nolan. But her cult isn't done with her...and neither are the monsters from the other side of the door.
It's got some of the DNA of a show like Buffy, but it deals with gender, race, sexuality, disability, class, and addiction with a cast and crew that are remarkably inclusive including a head writer who's a trans woman, a queer woman of color producing, and a non-binary lead played by a non-binary actor in Nolan (Misha Osherovich). It's inclusive queer teen horror in a way you've never seen it before.

All eight episodes are streaming on Peacock today, but we had the amazing chance to sit down and talk to actor Misha Osherovich and executive producer Jasmine Johnson about the series, it's dedication to getting right, and all the things it does that we've never seen in a teen action horror show!

Halloween (1978) (aka Rottable Mood Lighting) with Brad Michael Elmore, Bob Reyer, Katie Schenkel, Alicia Whitley, Emmanuel Lipscomb, and Allie Mullin

Fri, 01 Oct 2021 08:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Scary
Trigger Warnings: Jump scares, nudity, mild gore, stalking, cops, bad portrayals of therapy, violence against women

Support us on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/progressivelyhorrified

In 1978 there was no such thing as the "slasher" genre. Psycho and Black Christmas were oddities in the thriller genre. Until one very tall man stole a tan station wagon and drove it Haddonfield to steal a featureless white mask from the general store, walk slowly with a butcher knife, and steal headstones. And thus was cinema changed forever.

Director: John Carpenter
Writers: John Carpenter and Debra Hill
Stars: Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasance, and Tony Moran

Talking Points:

All nurses should have capes
Station wagons and bellbottoms
Setting and place setting
Annie - A flannel bi? Discuss.
Bob and Linda - should they have a burger shop and three kids
Spoopy house
Let's play dog or skunk!
Loomis diagnoses you with a case of medical evil
Laurie - Haddonfield's only good babysitter
Can you gaslight a child about a thing you've already tries to tell other people about?
Hedges - Michael taught Homer how to do that thing.
A FIGHT! Totemic evil or malicious madmen - which would you like to kill you?
Should Halloween ever have had sequels?
John Carpenter's called shot on The Thing.
Incidental nipples
A debate about the staining power of butter

Fri, 06 Aug 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Existentially disconcerting
Trigger Warnings: RAPE, assault, sexual assault, ableism, dog related violence

Y'all, this is a tough one. Let's put it out there - the third act twist is RAPE. For two acts this movie walks a fine line along the edge of abielism, then it very intentionally throws itself off of a horrible and disgusting cliff.

Director: Fede Alvarez
Writers: Fede Alvarez, Rodo Sayagues
Stars: Stephen Lang (Avatar, Freddy Lounds in Manhunter), Jane Levy (Evil Dead, Zoe’s Extraordinary Playlist), Dylan Minnette (Let Me In, Lost), Daniel Zovatto (Greg from It Follows)
What’s it about?
- Hoping to walk away with a massive fortune, a trio of thieves break into the house of a blind man who isn't as helpless as he seems.

Topics of Discussion:

Chekov's everything
What the fuck is up with Money?
Tyler Perry melodrama
Ableism
A good movie wrapped in a trashbag full of bricks and dumped in the river
Third act rape twists: a thesis.
Disabled people as monsters
Veterans as monsters
Happy dogs pretending to be scary dogs

Demon Knight (aka Last Banana of Christ) with Brad Michael Elmore and Danny Lore

Fri, 23 Jul 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spooky (a little scary)
Trigger Warnings: Sexual assault, gore, gruesome murder, gaslighting and manipulation, child death, sexual exploitation, violence against sex workers, general misogyny, the Crypt Keeper

Tales from the Crypt was a big brand in the 90's and they wanted to move from the tv to the box office. Demon Knight was their first attempt. It's fun, funny, and between Jada Pinkett's badass final girl, Billy Zane's zany murder demon, and the deft directing of Ernest Dickerson - they came out with something that exceeded the bro-horror TftC brand. Demon Knight is an action, horror, comedy with lots of shlocky b-movie bits that somehow soars.

Director: Ernest Dickerson (trailblazing black horror director of Bones, Juice, DMX’s Never Die Alone, and a number of the best tv shows including The Wire, Dexter, The L Word, Treme and the list goes on)
Writers: Ethan Reiff & Cyrus Voris (Bulletproof Monk, Kung Fu Panda, Russel Crowe Robin Hood, Brimstone ,Sleeper Cell) , Mark Bishop
Stars: John Kassir (The Cryptkeeper), Jada Pinkett Smith, CCH Pounder, Thomas Haden Church, Brenda Bakke, William Sadler, and the reason we’re all here whether we know it or not, Billy Zane.
What’s it about?
- A man on the run is hunted by a demon known as the Collector.

Topics of Discussion:

These bookends suck
But the Danny Elfman ass theme slaps
You can't catch me, gay thoughts
Demon John Wayne
Jada doing the most
Thomas Hayden Church's nipple shock kink
Victories of omission
Unfortunate portrayal of sex workers
CCH Pounder - a one liner machine
Billy Zane is absolutely glorious
Boobs and blood, the Tales from the Crypt brand
Legacy heroes
This movie needs a sequel franchise

Fri, 16 Jul 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spoopy (not scary)
Trigger Warnings: Gore, brutal assault, mild racism, homophobic slurs (all by bad people), Vince Vaughn, body swapping.

Body swapping movies always feel a bit squiggy going in, especially when you look at them through the lens of trans and non-binary folks. That's why we had two guests this week as we all gushed over the amazing way this body swapping slasher starring a man not known for his ability to be funny and mindful of the LGBTQIA+ community. It's a modern day miracle, but this movie actually does a really amazing job of handling trans issues and even goes out of its way to get the pronouns right!

The Basics
- A little bit about the movie before we start
- Director: Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Paranormal Activity -Marked ones, Disturbia, Scouts Guide to the Apocalypse) outspoken gay filmmaker
- Writers: Michael Kennedy, Christopher Landon
- Stars: Vince Vaughn, Kathryn Newton, Celeste O'Connor, Mischa Osherovich
What’s it about?
- After swapping bodies with a deranged serial killer, a young girl in high school discovers she has less than 24 hours before the change becomes permanent.

Topics of Discussion:

Friends from Mean Girls, high school from Scream
Local teen murder app
Homecoming: do people care?
Why wouldn't you have the homecoming game on a Friday?
Things a teen girl likes or things a 30 something gay man likes?

Trigger Warnings: Mind control, abusive parents, blood, embarrassment

Directors: Zoe Lister-Jones
Writers: Zoe Lister-Jones, Peter Filardi
Stars: Cailee Spaeny, Zoey Luna, Gideon Adlon, Lovie Simone, David Duchovny, Michelle Monaghan

Did you ever meet somebody who seemed really great and begin what felt like it was going to be a deep and fulfilling relationship and then it turned out that they never made good on any of their promises?

Nevermind, I don't know why I brought that up.

The Craft: Legacy is the sequel/reboot/remake of the classic The Craft for 2020 that has so much going for it. The young actresses are all great. One of the main characters is trans and is played by a young trans actress. David Duchovny is here to handle the creeping you out so that none of our girls have to go mad with power and pull a Dark Phoenix.

So why doesn't it work? Well...there are a few reasons but you'll have to listen to the podcast to find out for sure.

-Princess Nokia
-Mysterious self-cleaning jeans
-Shadows

Annihilation (aka Never Assume Straightness) with Vita Ayala

Fri, 18 Jun 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Existentially disconcerting
Trigger Warnings: Gaslighting, dismemberment, blood, frightening imagery, pretentious assholes

Director/Writer: Alex Garland (Ex-Machina, 28 Days Later, Devs, Batman Black and White)
Based on the novel by: Jeff VanDerMeer
Stars: Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Gina Rodriguez, Tuva Novotny, Benedict Wong, Oscar Isaac,

Did you ever get assigned a group project that went so bad you decided you'd rather fuck off and become a bush? We've all been there. Annihilation understands you. It wants to get inside you. It wants to change your dna into special sparkly rainbow dna. Come for the beaches made of crystal, stay for the vibrating alien meat cube. It's Annihilation, the movie we can't possibly spoil because we honestly don't know what happened. And so can you!

Topics of Discussion:

Oscar Isaac: not a valid test of straightness
Oscar Isaac: too short to be a bear? A sun bear maybe?
The revenge of the shitty infidelity subplot
Gina Rodriguez: a difficult topic of conversation
Gina Rodriguez: butch gay icon?
Benedict Wong: a person you could pay to deliver a dozen lines from inside a containment suit, I guess.
Refractions
Prisms: How do they work?
Never assume the straightness of Tessa Thompson characters
When is an alligator like a flower?
A short list of things intestines shouldn't do
In rural Florida, bear calls you.
Cass has never met tea she didn't want to spill
I think I'd rather be a bush than keep talking to you
LIGHTHOUSES ARE SYMBOLIC
A very important meat cube

Sarah Swire (Steph North) and Alan McDonald (Writer) Talk "Anna and the Apocalypse" - Pride Rebroadcast

Wed, 16 Jun 2021 09:00:00 GMT

OH MY GOD! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!

Actually I can tell you how it happened! We recorded a podcast about Anna and the Apocalypse and since we talked about our favorite tiny queer girl, Steph North, a whole bunch I tagged actress Sarah Swire in the tweet about the episode and then both she and Alan McDonald, the writer of Anna and the Apocalypse got in touch to say thanks for the shout outs in the episode and then Jeremy was like "Hey would you guys want to come on and talk about Anna and the Apocalypse and they both said yes and we had to do it at a weird time of day because Alan is in Scotland so Chris couldn't make it but she was there in spirit.

Topics of conversation are far ranging but include:
-Not burying your gays
-Singing
-Dancing
-Choreographing
-The many times of year during which different drafts of this movie were set
-Creating honest queerness in your characters
-Female protagonists not being your prize for hanging around long enough
-Sliding Doors alternate universe where this movie never happens
-Why directors should always want writers on their set
-Overcoming traditional masculinity at the end of the world
-Sarah's voice and how it's very good
-Ben Wiggins, the man who makes a mockery out of the concept of sexuality
-Optimus Prime's Linked in account

Anna and the Apocalypse - Pride Rebroadcast

Mon, 14 Jun 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spoopy (not scary) with mild jump scares and moderate existential dread
Trigger Warnings: zombies, gore, pandemics, high school, musicals, Christmas

Anna and the Apocalypse is a 2017 horror/comedy/musical from Scotland that combines our love of musicals set in high schools and zombie horror comedies set in England. It's directed by John McPhail and it stars Ella Hunt, Malcolm Cumming, Christopher Leveaux, Marli Siu, Mark Benton, Paul Kaye, and the podcast's new girlfriend Sarah Swire and new boyfriend Ben Wiggins.

This movie has us co-sleeping in ballpits, fantasizing about power throuples, and examining the effects of toxic masculinity on how we deal with apocalypses and friendships. We also talk extensively about Sarah Swire's portrayal of Steph North and how rare it is to have a non-sexualized queer woman with social anxiety, a warm winter wardrobe, and a hatchback in a horror movie, despite the fact that that describes a quarter of our friend group. We are Soldiers at War for this movie and Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now.

This week we bring you something notably less moist than the Alien movies! It's a movie about art that kills you (and of course all the assholes in the art market who join in along the way). We've got bisexual Jake Gyllenhaal. We've got neurotic John Malkovich. We've got absolutely magic (and gay) Rene Russo! What more could you want? If you answer was murderous monkeys, well, somehow you're in luck. It's Velvet Buzzsaw time!

The magic of Gyllenhaal
Malkovich!
I built a railroad!
No you didn't you white son of a bitch!
Put your hand in me and see what happens!

Resident Evil (aka Crystal Pepsi Tesseract) w/ Steve Seigh

Fri, 19 Mar 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spoopy
Trigger Warnings: Zombies, violence to animals, dismemberment, AI

Director: Paul W.S. Anderson
Writers: Paul W.S. Anderson
Stars: Milla Jovovich, Michelle Rodriguez, Eric Mabius, James Purefoy

You're all going to die down here...of laughter!

Resident Evil is the movie that we somehow got instead of an adaptation of the hit horror game series by the same name. It features Milla Jovovich in a role that answers the question no one dared to ask: had you considered just kicking the zombies? Joined by a flock on white guys so indistinguishable that it's hard to keep track of who is dead and, of course, Michelle Rodriguez doing her TOUGH GIRL SHIT (TM).

Come, join us as we grope hopelessly through a sea of nu metal in hopes of finding something redeeming.

Topics of Discussion:
-Nu Metal: Threat or Menace?
-At what point to we have to accept that people in this movie live in an alternate universe where there are no zombie movies
-Communication is key
-Did you program you AI with the brain of a 9 year old?
-Some very good boys and their tasty jelly and meat suits
-Milla train four months...for this?
-Why is Kaplan still here?
-Wait...did you hit your onsite security team with amnesia gas...on purpose?
-Like Stannis Baratheon, all of our ships go down in flames.
-Bad CGI kills

Bad Hair (aka A Period Piece) with Bre Indigo, Lando Toothman, and Alicia Whitley

Fri, 19 Feb 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Mostly Spoopy with existential dread
Trigger Warnings: Racism, colorism, trauma, body horror, sexual assault, violence, blood

Director: Justin Simien
Writers: Justin Simien
Stars: Elle Lorraine, Judith Scott, Vanessa William s, Jay Pharoah, James Van Der Beek, Lena Waithe, Kelly Rowland, Usher, Blair Underwood, Michelle Hurd, MC Lyte, Robin Thede, Laverne Cox, Nicole Byer

"Bad Hair" is a politically and socially relevant drama, filled with the real life challenges that black women faced and continue to face in the workplace and in their daily lives. It's a thoughtful consideration of the pressure to conform to traditional Eurocentric beauty standards even in creative fields and the damned if you do, damned if you don't nature of what we as a society demand of black women. It highlights the way in which Anna, a young black woman working in television is overlooked, mistreated and betrayed.

Psych! Actually it's a campy horror movie about a woman that decides to get a weave that turns out to suck blood, physically violates her, and murders her friends. It's "Little Shop of Horrors" if Seymour wore Audrey II around on his head and Audrey II occasionally stuck its plant tentacles down his pants and into his bodily orifices.

Psych! Actually it's both of those movies and we had just as much trouble trying to figure out what it was saying as that description implies. Come be completely stumped with us!

Topics of Discussion:
-Hair drama
-Hair trauma
-Bad Hair/Good Hair/Bad Hair
-If you want to have a magical negro, but your movie is full of black people, do you just have a magical trans woman?
-The late 80's career minded black issues drama that Ben was here for.
-The 80's camp horror movie about killer hair Bre was here for.
-The blood oath that forced Lando to be here.
-Welcome to our podcast about black hair. No, really, this episode contains a lot of discussion about black hair by black women and non-binary folks.
-Jeremy does his best not to talk about his hair. It just makes everyone mad.
-Horror movies and fantasy movies have to have rules.
-Elle Lorraine acts good
-Who cast Blair Underwood as Laurence Fishburne in this movie?
-Witches: who are they and what do they want?
-Can you make a movie about racism and colorist affecting black people and still completely exoticize Native Americans?
-This movie sure tried.
-James Van Der Beak - down or clueless?

Blood and Donuts (aka Astral Vampire Sex was my Sexuality in High School) with Bronwyn Kelly-Seigh

Fri, 29 Jan 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spoopy (not scary)
Trigger Warnings: Blood, suicidal ideation, moderate violence, several uses of “the r word”

Directors: Holly Dale
Writers: Andrew Rai Berzins
Stars: Gordon Currie, Louis Ferreira, Helene Clarkson

Tonight we learned a new term thanks to our special guest, Bronwyn Kelly-Seigh. That term is "CanCon". In Canada they actually invest in their creators and their are mandatory minimums and grants for content created in Canada and using Canadian creators and actors. And that, dear friends, is how you end up with a little movie called "Blood and Donuts" about a vampire who went to sleep in 1969 and woke up in mid-nineties Toronto. Now he's eager to see all the sights, like the world's most run down block of flats, the graveyard where he buried his vampire coat and squeezebox, and the world's dingiest all-night donut shop.

But that's not all! Before his first day is over he'll be dealing with the Toronto mob (led by David Cronenberg himself) and he'll be part of a bizarre love rhombus with his old girlfriend, the spunky bat-wielding clerk at the donut shop, and a cab driver with a deeply inexplicable accent.

Topics of Discussion:
-pansexual vampires
-cabbies who know it's okay for men to cry
-David Cronenberg's cowboy boots
-shoe rental
-astral vampire sex
-selective sun allergies
-popular men's v-neck styles
-Vincent Valentine and the definition of a cape
-the strangest block in Toronto

The Craft (aka The One with TMI) with Allie Mullin and Alicia Whitley

Fri, 15 Jan 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spoopy (not scary) w/mild hatred of who you used to be
Trigger Warnings: Snakes, bugs, rats, suicide, suicidal ideation, abuse, sexual assault, mind control

Directors: Andrew Fleming
Writers: Peter Filardi, Andrew Fleming
Stars: Rachel True, Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Breckin Meyer, Christine Taylor

If you grew up in the nineties, at any point had an all black wardrobe, and ever had a friend who warned you about particular herbs because they could be used to put a love spell on you (hi Jennifer) then the odds are pretty good at some point you were very well acquainted with the 1996 film "The Craft".
It's about four high school girls who are very into magic, very bad at wearing their catholic school uniforms to regulation, and each have one very specific life problem that they decide to change with the practical application of magic. Of course, in any nineties movie, girls strive to get some kind of power and control in their lives and when they get it they go immediately insane and begin killing people and turning on each other (sigh). We all remember this movie (except Ben, who is a literal infant) but just how well do we remember it? Is it the "Whedonesque" girl power phenomenon that some people remember or is it "Whedonesque" in all the wrong ways? Jump in and let's find out!

Points of Interest:
Which element are you?
What's your favorite 90's fashion accessory?
This soundtrack
Jewel
The many thunderstorms of Los Angeles
90's Suicidal ideation and the "right way to commit suicide"
Unrealistically barren magic shops
Don't steal from local witches
We find out a lot about each other (everybody was a witch, except Jeremy who was a football player. TWIST!)
WHY IS EVERYBODY IN LOVE WITH CHRIS HOOKER?! HE'S THE WORST!
Large chunks of this plot don't make sense.
So many snakes
Did The Craft change the ecosystem of Los Angeles?
This movie hates people experiencing homelessness and victims of abuse.
Please invite Rachel True to your convention you racist trash people

Ready or Not (aka Furious Girl Seeking Depressed Guy) with Justina Ireland

Fri, 08 Jan 2021 12:00:00 GMT

Fear Level: Spooky (a little scary)
Trigger Warnings: Gaslighting, violence, moderate gore, demonism, rich people

Directors: Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett
Writers: Guy Busick, R. Christopher Murphy
Stars: Samara Weaving, Adam Brody, Mark O'Brien, Andie MacDowell

It's a Progressively Horrified All-Stars episode as both Samara Weaving (from Mayhem) and Adam Brody (from Jennifer's Body) play hide and seek with our hearts in the amazing 2019 horror comedy "Ready or Not". We are joined by horror author and all around great person Justina Ireland to discuss the most complicated contract that the demon lawyer has written up yet.

Grace (Samara Weaving) has just married in to a very rich family with a board game empire and she finds out there's just one catch: that family got all their money as part of a deal with the devil and if she wants to be part of the family, she has to play a game. When she pulls the card that says "hide and seek" it means that the rest of the members of the family have until dawn to sacrifice her. It's wild. It's funny. Hopefully you don't have a thing about trauma involving hands.

This discussion includes some favorites:
-How does Samara Weaving make smoking look so cool.
-Adam Brody = Always Bi and always Byronic
-Andie MacDowell with a bow is some real queen shit. Can we get her a horse to ride on?
-Rich people really are different
-Being offered something by an old woman or in a fairy tale is a lose/lose situation
-When is it acceptable to punch a child in the face?
-It's so hard to keep good help these days.
-Is furious girl / depressed guy our favorite ship type?
-What do you even call that?
-Is it just Percy and Mary Shelley? Is that ship "Shelleys"
-Is Shellies also a term for furies, but with turtles?
-Be gay, eat people
-The vengeance of the demon lawyer
-Wait, is that Alexi's Rose's old boyfriend Art?

Black Christmas (aka Just a Regular Herring) with Bob Reyer

Fri, 25 Dec 2020 10:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spooky with intense amount of existential dread
Trigger Warnings: Intense depictions of and lengthy discussion of sexual violence and rape. Violence. Mild gore. Jump scares. Home Invasion. Stalking. Cyber Stalking. Christmas.

Merry Christmas and/or Happy Friday!
We got you a Christmas and/or Friday present! We did a very merry episode of the podcast with our very own Santa Claus, Talking Comics' Bob Reyer! Bob brought us some figgy pudding and we talked about the 2019 film "Black Christmas" directed by Sophia Takal and starring Imogen Poots and an army of amazing young female actors. Fair warning, this movie is extensively about misogyny, sexual assault, rape, and the way all of those things intersect with college. Just be cautious going in, we don't want to ruin anybody's Christmas or Friday.

Topics of conversation for this one include:
-Cary Elwes and how he can sell us anything, fixing leaky busts
-How funny the word bust is (to Ben) and how Emily just won't stop saying it.
-Bob brings the knowledge of all the other movies that are also called Black Christmas (I didn't check to see if he knew about Black Friday, but I'm guessing he does).
-Honestly, who steals a diva cup?
-Actual toxic masculinity
-Mean Girls (again).
-Why it's uncool to hang out at your friend's work and talk about their sexual assault.
-Archery
-Alternate uses for dry cleaning bags
-One overly aggressive analogy about what it's like to be Jewish on Christmas

Mayhem (aka Office Space Game of Death) with Allie Mullin

Fri, 18 Dec 2020 12:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spoopy with a side of existential dread about capitalism
Trigger Warnings: Pandemic, disease, blood and gore, mild workplace sexism, a disability slur, horrible workplace, mild nudity

Let's establish something real quick: there are two opposing types of action movies:

-A "Die Hard": Work your way down through a building to rescue hostages / escape

-A "Game of Death": Work your way up through a building, taking out level bosses on the way, to reach a final boss at the top.

Now that we have that out of the way, you have everything you need to understand what I mean when I say that "Mayhem" is an Office Space Game of Death, in which you have to work your way through your evil coworkers to reach and fight the evil CEO of your company. Sound fun? Well, then it's time you met Mayhem!

Directed by Joe Lynch, Mayhem is a blood splattered, nail shooting, mug smashing good time. It may not have anything even remotely not straight to offer you, but what's less straight than fighting for the downfall of late stage capitalism, right? Maybe that's a stretch, but this movie is jam packed with class conversation and features an effortlessly diverse cast including Steven Yuen and Samara Weaving, who are cutting a bloody swath through an office under quarantine for a disease that causes you to lose all inhibitions.

After Midnight (aka The Sweet Sad Song of Florida Man) with Karley Richard

Fri, 11 Dec 2020 12:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spoopy (mostly not scary)
Trigger Warnings: Violence toward animals, gaslighting, jump scares, moderate alcoholism, Florida

We brought in an additional psychologist for a second opinion as Karley Richard joins the podcast to talk about "After Midnight." After Midnight is a 2019 movie written by, directed by, and starring Jeremy Gardner and co-starring Brea Grant, Henry Zebrowski, and Justin Benson. It's about life love and monsters that are either aliens, your shape shifting girlfriend, or your radioactive housecat in Northern Florida.

Hank's girlfriend has disappeared and since then every night a giant clawed creature has been trying to get into his house. It's a movie about relationships and also about scary monsters. It's about gaslighting asshole brother-in-law cops and also about sweet redneck friends that will grab a hatchet and come help you hunt your monster. It's about overcoming traditional masculinity and drinking gorilla farts. Come join us as we swirl, sniff, sip, and savor the rare horror romance of After Midnight.

PLUS: Is this our most awkward post credits outtake yet?

The Babadook (aka Boomerang Crossbow) with Emily Martin

Fri, 04 Dec 2020 12:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Terrifying (Very Scary) with overwhelming existential dread
Trigger Warnings: Violence toward animals, violence toward children, jump scares, light gore, gaslighting, insomnia, hallucinations, abusive familial relationships.

Good gracious guys, this one is a wild ride. We sat down on the day after the American presidential election to discuss the scariest and hardest to process movie we've watched so far. This one is long. Believe us, the experience was more difficult for us than it will be for you.

The Babadook is a 2014 Australian thriller by Director Jennifer Kent and is based roughly on her own short film "Monster". It's not an easy movie to watch, especially if you have kids which will become quickly evident in the first segment when we list the trigger warnings. On the plus side, there's no sexual assault in this movie, setting it apart from most of the horror movies we've discussed so far. It is genuinely affective and is a good movie, but maybe one you want to pick the right opportunity that isn't right after an already traumatic event to watch it after.

We will discuss not understanding Australia, Jeremy's certainty that when you shoot an Australian crossbow the bolt comes back to you, our shared appreciation for and dislike of Hereditary, and what a difference having a nice old lady next door can have. Get ready to meet a Chip that's not a boyfriend, but a sister. Prepare to shudder at the horror of a nine-year-old girl's birthday party. And finally, join all of us in just wanting to take a nap after we finish talking about this movie. Am I selling it? Am I selling you on listening to this podcast?

The Cabin in the Woods (aka hit em with the dumb-ass gas) with TJ

Fri, 27 Nov 2020 12:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spoopy
Trigger Warnings: Extensive gaslighting, violence toward women, extensive gore, disturbing images, Joss Whedon.

It's the first episode of this podcast we've ever done to necessitate and upfront creator based content warning as we talk about the meta horror of "The Cabin in the Woods" and having grown up with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly in a post Justice League world.

Despite our Whedonesque misgivings, we're still very much here for Drew Goddard and a just pre-fame Chris Hemsworth. There's a lot of speculation about how many times a person has to write or underwrite the same type of character before it MEANS something. We dig into the small but important difference between being clever and being self-aware as the movie identifies a number of important tropes and then...continues them. Witness the worst final girl ever to continue to be alive. Laugh along with us as we fall in love with the incredibly comic booky idea of "dumb-ass gas". Gasp with us as we unravel the mysteries of Chekov's dirt bike! Head to your basement and summon up the monster or your choice to enjoy this one with. We summoned TJ!

The Mummy (1999) (aka The Bisexual Thirst Trap) with Alexis Sanchez & Desiree Rodriguez

Fri, 20 Nov 2020 07:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spooky (a little scary)
Trigger warnings: Egyptian/Middle Eastern exoticism, bugs, mild gore, jump scares

Is progress an illusion? Because we're talking 1999's "The Mummy" with Rachael Weisz and Brendan Frasier and how even though it traffics in Eastern exoticism and white people digging up dead brown people to steal their ancient artifacts, it's somehow way better at meaningful representation and creating female heroes with agency than the 2017 Tom Cruise "The Mummy."

Also, was "The Mummy" just a thirst trap for young bisexuals? Our panels seems to think so as they find both the brilliant and gorgeous Evy Carnahan (Weisz) and the roguish and caring Rick O'Connell (Frasier) equally swoon worthy.

Also were you a teenager in 1999 and do you still find yourself itching under your skin every time you see an image of a scarab. We sure as heck do. Come for the gooey mummies, stay for the empowered, intelligent, and somehow still feminine badass.

Finally, is Oded Fehr so handsome that he saved this whole movie? The answer may surprise you.

The First Purge (aka Waiting for Skeletor)

Fri, 13 Nov 2020 12:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spooky (a little scary) with large amounts of existential dread
Trigger Warnings: attempted sexual assault, jump scares, violence, gore, racial violence, depictions of white supremacy groups, explosions

The First Purge is about as subtle as a brick to the face and it's about as affective too. This movie finally realizes the ideas that previous iterations of The Purge have been circling around and it only took the Trump presidency to make it happen.

The government has legalized all crime in Staten Island for one night and they're ready for the people to hit the streets and get their murder on. But when things don't go as expected, will the government have to take their medicine or will they conspire to directly cause the mass murder of black and brown people in the projects via organized hit squads? I mean, it's not like the government ever ran up in people's homes and started shooting before, right?

Jennifer's Body (AKA we all owe Megan Fox an apology)

Sat, 31 Oct 2020 11:00:00 GMT

Fright Level: Spoopy (not scary)
Trigger Warnings: gaslighting, kidnapping, cannibalism, possession, toxic friendships, use of disability slurs

Jennifer's Body is the 2009 horror/comedy from director Karyn Kusama (The Invitation, Girlfight) and writer Diablo Cody (Juno) starring Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, and Adam Brody. It was torn up by critics and well known for having one of the worst advertising campaigns ever, but has since become a cult classic with queer horror fans and especially queer women. Why?

Because it's actually really freaking good! It's a story about toxic friendships, blossoming queer relationships, 2000's indie emo bands, and ritual sacrifice and we're gonna tell you why it might be a modern queer feminist horror masterpiece.

Also: Megan Fox is great, actually and we as a society owe her a huge apology.
