The Fear Review

Welcome to The Fear Review, a horror podcast hosted by a horror lifer (William) and his wife Amy, who agreed to “watch a few scary movies”... and now finds herself co-hosting a podcast about all of them. In each episode, we explore horror films from both ends of the fandom—one of us is quoting Clive Barker, the other is wondering why vampires are such messy eaters. If you love scary movies, funny marriage banter, or just want to relive your own horror trauma (IT, Candyman, The Conjuring)—you’re in the right place. 🎙️ New episodes weekly 📍 Available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and more 📩 Contact: thefearreview@gmail.com

Spoiler-free up top, full spoiler section after the "meaty sausage" cue.
