Species (1995) — Sexy, slimy, and scientifically suspect, Species crashes onto the screen with H.R. Giger creature designs, government scientists in panic mode, and a half-alien femme fatale on the loose. We’re diving into the film’s weird mix of horror, sci-fi, and skinemax energy — breaking down its bonkers plot, surprising cast, and whether it’s smarter (or dumber) than it thinks. Is it B-movie brilliance or just hot nonsense with tentacles? Let’s find out.

Dracula: Dead and Loving It (1995) — Mel Brooks sinks his teeth into gothic comedy with Leslie Nielsen as the most bumbling Count ever to grace the silver screen. We’re breaking down the slapstick, the satire, and the surprisingly gorgeous production design in this often-overlooked spoof. From rubber bats to ballroom bites, we ask the ultimate question: does Brooks’ final parody still have life after dark?

For our tenth anniversary rewatch, we descend once again into the haunting nightmare of Jacob’s Ladder (1990). Joined by Patreon Co-Executive Producer and horror aficionado Rob Perry, we revisit Adrian Lyne’s psychological thriller to unpack its twisting layers of grief, trauma, and reality-bending terror. From Vietnam to New York and beyond, we explore how the film mixes horror with heartbreak — and why it still hits just as hard, decades later.

In this episode, we sink our teeth into The Addiction (1995), Abel Ferrara’s moody, black-and-white vampire film that’s as much about Sartre and sin as it is about blood. We unpack the heavy philosophy behind the movie’s take on evil, addiction, and moral decay — and ask whether vampirism is just a metaphor for being human. Along the way, we wrestle with Nazi imagery, existential dread, and whether philosophy helps or just makes everything way more confusing.

Sink your teeth into this one—we’re diving fang-first into Vampire in Brooklyn! Eddie Murphy brings the bite and the sass as a smooth-talking bloodsucker looking for love (and maybe a little chaos) in the Big Apple. It’s part horror, part comedy, and all Eddie.

This week we’re descending into The Prophecy (1995), the cult supernatural thriller where angels aren’t exactly playing harps. Christopher Walken commands the screen as Gabriel—less a messenger of God, more a celestial hitman with a serious grudge. As a second war brews in Heaven, a soul too dark for Hell becomes the battlefield, and humanity hangs in the balance. With Elias Koteas as the weary detective caught in the middle and Viggo Mortensen showing up as one of the creepiest Lucifers ever put to film, it’s scripture meets horror with a side of Walken weird. We’re flipping through the Book of Revelation and asking: what if the angels are the real problem?
