  • Streets of Ire (WEAPONS [2025] feat. Alex Segura)
    Nov 3 2025
    After chatting THE ALIEN FACTOR with Trevor Henderson on our previous episode, we're delighted to welcome another previous pod guest back to the show: Alex Segura! Alex first appeared back on our pod on our MOON KNIGHT episode, a mini-series which we reviewed partly because some of the episodes were directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. Appropriately enough, with Benson and Moorhead currently working on the DAREDEVIL - BORN AGAIN series, Alex returns to our pod with two Daredevil projects on the horizon. Marvel's Daredevil: The Illustrated History is out from Insight Editions in November 2025, and the prose novel Daredevil: The Enemy of my Enemy is coming in March of 2026. Alex has many, many projects in the works at the moment, but we'd particularly like to draw attention to the Patreon comic he has been co-writing with Sara Century: THE FORGOTTEN FIVE. As a Patron of the book, we've been greatly enjoying the series so far, and would appreciate any listeners who might consider supporting it at the Patreon link below: https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheForgottenFive If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: http://www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!

  • Forever in Blue Jeans (THE ALIEN FACTOR [1978] feat. Trevor Henderson)
    Oct 5 2025
    Our host Jacob's novel THE LAST SUMMER, a tale of the Glawackus aka the "Northern Devil Cat," is now availabe from ESpec Books as part of their Systema Paradoxa series of cryptid tales. To celebrate, we're reviewing a movie similarly based on beastie's prowling the woodlands, albeit more extraterrestrial than terrestrial in this case. And Baltimore instead of Stanford. We're excited to review our first Don Dohler movie on the pod: his debut feature THE ALIEN FACTOR (1978)! And we're even more excited to welcome special guest TREVOR HENDERSON back to the show! It's always such a delight to chat with Trevor, but doubly-appropriate since his first appearance on our pod was another Baltimore-centric feature (BUTTERFLY KISSES). THE ALIEN FACTOR is currently streaming on Tubi as of this episode's release, and we absolutely encourage everyone to support Trevor by picking up one of the installments in his SCAREWAVES series from Scholastic, or visiting his InPrnt shop: https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/slimyswampghost/ If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: http://www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!

  • Ink That Deal (DESCENDENT [2025])
    Sep 9 2025
    The Rustic Signal has been lit once more! After performing in front of the camera for RESOLUTION and THE ENDLESS, Peter Cilella now steps behind the camera for his feature film directorial debut DESCENDENT (2025)! We've been looking forward to more directorial work from Peter since we saw his short film OCCUPANT a few years back, so we were very excited to check this movie out. It was a blast to discuss, and we hope everyone enjoys our conversation. As usual, we get into spoilers pretty quickly in this review, so we absolutely encourage everyone to check out the movie first. It's currently available for purchase or rental on all major VOD platforms, and it absolutely deserves your support. Speaking of support, our Kickstarter for the superhero anthology WHERE LEGENDS WALK will have a few days remaining in its campaign when the episode goes up. If you miss the Kickstarter window, the book should be available for purchase soon, with a mid-November release date planned. You can find more details on the book/Kickstarter by visiting wherelegendswalk.com If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!

  • Do Not Profane the Patience of Sean (THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE [1974])
    Jul 27 2025
    As we enter the fifth year of our podcast, we are so, so grateful to all of our listeners for their time and support. This particular episode is dedicated to Sean, a listener whose support has helped us through some very rough times over the years. Since our pod started off with a review of the Return of the Living Dead franchise, we thought it would be appropriate to celebrate our fifth year by reviewing another zombie movie. We reached out to Sean and asked him to help us decide which movie to review, and we landed on... well, a movie with many, many titles, (Don't Open the Window, Let Sleeping Corpses Lie, No Profanar el Sueño de los Muertos, 悪魔の墓場 and much more) but possibly best known in the U.S. as THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE (1974)! This movie from director Jorge Grau is streaming on Shudder as of this episode's release, and we absolutely encourage everyone to give it a watch ahead of listening to our review. And speaking of zombie-centric media, our host Jacob's debut novel THE CHANGE is on sale now from Oddity Prodigy Productions! This tale of hope, zombies, and rock & roll can be ordered wherever you get your books, but here's the link for it on Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-change/d2beab56340d82cb?ean=9781733393850 If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: http://www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!

  • Animal in a Box (GRAVE ENCOUNTERS [2011])
    May 7 2025
    Our Christmas episode is still coming (albeit way, way after December), but we're taking a quick detour to the Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital. It's Episode 76, so it's the perfect time to have our resident 76ers fan Jacob choose a movie to review. And being our resident found-footage fan as well, for our latest episode Jacob has chosen GRAVE ENCOUNTERS (2011), written and directed by The Vicious Brothers. We also discuss the Kickstarter that Jacob just launched for his debut horror-fantasy novel THE CHANGE! You can check out the link below for more details, and any support is greatly appreciated: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/oddityprodigy/the-change-a-novel If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: http://www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!

  • Gotta Love Hope (THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT [2024] feat. Michael Felker)
    Feb 15 2025
    The Rustic Signal has been lit! Although this episode is being released later than we'd hoped (although if we're reviewing a time travel movie, maybe our delays don't count this time around?), we're very excited for everyone to check out our discussion of the latest release from Rustic Films: THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT (2024). And even better, we're so delighted to be joined by the movie's writer/director Michael Felker for a special interview! We had a truly fabulous time chatting with Michael about the movie, his work on previous Rustic Films features, and much more (and probably more JCVD than any of us anticipated). We can't thank him enough for his time, and we really hope everyone enjoys the episode! If you haven't seen the movie yet, as of this episode's release it's currently streaming on all major VOD platforms, with more details available here: www.magnetreleasing.com/thingswillbedifferent/watch-at-home/ For more information on Michael Felker and Last Life Films, you can visit: www.lastlifefilms.com/ As mentioned in the episode, if you have some funds to spare, we'd greatly appreciate it if you could consider donating to the GoFundMe to help Ben Mekler and his family out after their home was lost in the Eaton Fire: www.gofundme.com/f/ben-and-kirby-lost-everything-in-the-eaton-fire/ If you'd like to follow us on social media, you can visit our Linktree page (linked below) but we've also listed some of our social media handles: Linktree: linktr.ee/scarystuff Official site: scarystuffpodcast.com Twitter: @scarystuffpod Instagram: @scarystuffpodcast Letterboxd: @scarystuffpod Incredibly Niche Merch: teepublic.com/user/scary-stuff-podcast You can find a list of all the previous movies we've reviewed and their corresponding episodes (via the "Read Notes" option) here: www.letterboxd.com/scarystuffpod/list/all-reviews-scary-stuff-podcast/ And as always, thanks so much for listening!
