1:19:24

Send us a text A ship reappears after having been missing for seven years. Obviously, complete disregard for safety tells us that we have to go check it out, right? And where did this ship go for seven years? Another dimension? Maybe hell? Oh, yeah. This is going to go well. And the ship is in space, of course. This is the voyage of the starship, E…

Send us a text More child trauma? Two episodes in a row? Apparently, we just can't get enough. When little Peter hears knocking, and then a voice, coming from his wall, his parents seem desperate to discourage him from pursuing an explanation.

2M ago1:22:33

1:22:33

Send us a text David Cronenberg's cathartic exercise on film, a result of a personal custody battle, is not all body horror. There is genuine child and family trauma at its core. And because of that, The Brood (1979) is not always a pleasant watch. Perhaps Cronenberg's most personal film, it still packs quite a punch some 45 years later.…

Send us a text After 5 years, I guess that it's finally time to talk about a Nicole favorite for our 135th episode.

Send us a text The Final Chapter for Friday the 13th: The Episode? I'm afraid so. One movie does feature a guest appearance by one Fred Krueger, so there's that. And the other is a reboot attempt that fared well at the box office. But no! That's all. This Voorhees guy is finished! Maybe. But while you're waiting, you may as well hear our opinions o…

Send us a text Time to pay another visit to the Dungeon of Directors, and unleash a variety of cult horrors. Writer, director, producer, Larry Cohen just had a knack for taking ideas and fleshing them out. Making something that sounds ridiculous, much more compelling and fun than it has any right to be.
