Cultists, your Horror Hosts aren't done with The Overlook Hotel just yet, or maybe it's not done with us. With 2019's Doctor Sleep, Mike Flanagan attempted the impossible, reconciling Stephen King's vision of The Shining with Stanley Kubrick's and sequalizing both. Was he successful?

Cultists, The Shining is 45 years old this year. So it's time for your Horror Hosts to head up to The Overlook Hotel and put Kubrick's psychological horror masterpiece on the Exam Table. Hopefully we don't get snowed in.

It's finally here, Cultists. Gothic Horror maestro Guillermo del Toro's long awaited adaptation of Frankenstein has dropped and your Horror Hosts promptly put it on the Exam Table.

Cultists, five years after the previous entry in the series, and three years since they'd made a horror movie at all, Universal convinced Karloff to sit in Jack Pierce's make-up chair for one last outing as the iconic monster. Minus director James Whale's subversive edge but with Dracula star Bela Lugosi and future Sherlock Holmes star Basil Rathbone, Son Of Frankenstein marked a turning point in the Universal Horror Series.

Cultists, a successful film demands a sequel, and The Monster Demands a Mate! Coming four years after the original, and largely considered the pinnacle of the Classic Era of Universal Horror, Bride of Frankenstein arrived in a very different cinematic landscape than its predecessor. Karloff was now a Horror Movie Star, director James Whale had considerably more creative control, and there was a newly established Hays Code to contend with. Please join us for the Dissection
