  • John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) with Scott and Drew
    Aug 13 2025

    Episode 002: We're dissecting John Carpenter's paranoid masterpiece "The Thing" (1982) to explore how Kurt Russell's iconic performance and Rob Bottin's legendary practical effects transformed a simple alien invasion script into the ultimate exercise in claustrophobic terror and body horror. Join us as we analyze how Carpenter's genius direction turns an Antarctic research station into horror cinema's most unforgettable pressure cooker, where trust dies and nightmares are born!

  • Sinners (2025) with Scott and Drew
    Aug 6 2025

    We're diving into Ryan Coogler's ambitious vampire and blues mashup, "Sinners", to unpack how Michael B. Jordan's dual role as bootlegging twins and Ludwig Göransson's genre bending score attempt to blend 1930s Mississippi Delta atmosphere with supernatural horror and whether this"kitchen sink" approach actually works or just makes a beautiful mess.

    Join us as we dissect what happens when auteur filmmaking meets the undead, complete with Irish folk singing vampires and enough thematic swings to make your head spin!
