Paranormal Activity 3 (2011) with Tyler Clark

Fri, 21 May 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Cinematographer and resident boyfriend Tyler Clark joins us to discuss Paranormal Activity 3! If you ask Karol, he'll tell you that this is by far the best film in the franchise, so listen to find out why that is! Actually, since this is being typed by Karol, I will declare it definitively: This is the best Paranormal Activity film and anyone who says differently is wrong.

NOTE: We are watching the EXTENDED Version of the film, which is available to rent on Amazon Prime and YouTube. The theatrical version is available to stream on Amazon Prime and Hulu, but if you watch that one with this episode, you WILL get out of sync.

DOUBLE NOTE: The extended version is a million times better anyways so it is worth the extra effort, you lazy bum.

Nosferatu (1922) with Magnus Sundberg & Leo Pernia

Fri, 30 Apr 2021 10:00:00 GMT

*Spongebob voice* "Nosferatu!"

We're going way back to the beginning for this one folks! Filmmakers Magnus Sundberg and Leo Pernia join us to discuss the silent film classic "Nosferatu"! You know it from that scene in Spongebob, now see what all the fuss is about!

"Nosferatu" is in the public domain, so it's available to stream basically anywhere online (Amazon Prime, Tubi, YouTube, etc), but we recommend watching it on Amazon Prime because that's the one we watched and there are slight differences in the film print between platforms.

The Conjuring (2013)

Fri, 04 Dec 2020 22:00:00 GMT

NOTE: At the time of recording, The Conjuring was on HBOMax, which is how we watched it. At the time of publishing, it is not on any major streaming services, but I'm sure you can find it using methods I'm not legally allowed to disclose here.
