Are they being paid by the word?

This week, Matt and Cody are once again joined by playwright and educator Emily McClain to talk about more animatronic killers and sadly less Nicolas Cage. The gang discusses major differences between the game source material and how this version matches up against it's own copycats...or maybe cupcakes in this instance. Not to mention: influencers infringing upon Hollywood's dayplayers, what time period we think the film may be set in, the Blumhouse of it all, choreographed child dance sequences, the power of Matthew Lillard, and who the hell wants to go to Nebraska anyway.

Don't open that fridge and don't forget to lock the door...

Thanks for listening!

Something's rotten!

This week, Cody and Matt visit one of 2023's most shocking horror films. They discuss expert world-building, the marvels of a well crafted mystery, and the top notch gore that goes into turning your child into a popcorn bucket. If that wasn't gruesome enough for you, they also discuss the ill-fated grandma, the foul smelling neighbor, and the broadway-bound musical!

Call the cleaner and hide the axes, something wicked this way... lurks.

Thanks for listening!

It's Bud Time!

This week, Matt and Cody hot-wire a car, a few in fact, in continuation of their look back at 2023, and just in time for this year's Harvest. The boys talk novel inspiration, 50's perspiration, and Misfits appropriation. They have a "Hay"day with the lure and a Field day with the acting choices. Not to mention: fuzzy cornfields, drunken parental units, lengthy hallways, what exactly some of those boys were really doing on Hype Night, and which graveyard you could find them hiding out in during the Run.

There may not be any stops on the black top road, but there's certainly a lot of laughs on the way down it.

Thanks for listening!
