No better film to set the tone than Joe Dante's videostore rental favorite, The 'Burbs. Starring Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher, and a slew of other stars, it's still baffling why this hilarious send-up of suburbia and "the horrors behind closed doors" received such critical fire during its theatrical run. But history has redeemed this one, and we loved revisiting our favorite moments on this week's episode. Enjoy the review, and let u...

Join us in this latest episode of Two Guys in a Chainsaw as we dive deep into the grindhouse horror classic, 'The Toolbox Murders'. Returning from 'In Space Month', Todd and Craig go back to Earth and back in time to the raw exploitative cinema of the 70s. We discuss the iconic VHS cover, Stephen King's surprising endorsement, and the film's brutal and sleazy content that only 70s grindhouse could deliver. Listen as we break down...

Is this the best Friday the 13th film ever? Craig seems to think so. We discuss the film's blend of sci-fi and horror, its unique setting, memorable kills, and the transformation of Jason into Uber Jason. With behind-the-scenes insights and a comparison to the other cosmic horror films we covered this month, we're gonna explore why 'Jason X' stands out in the Friday the 13th franchise - and among "in space" franchise entries in gen...

Todd, who is less familiar with the Hellraiser franchise, and Craig, who has seen more of the movies, discuss the unique elements that set this film apart from typical horror settings. We both found the film surprisingly enjoyable despite its poor initial reception. We loved its coherence, special effects, and performances, especially Doug Bradley’s extensive monologuing as Priest of Hell Pinhead.

'Leprechaun 4: In Space.' has a ridiculous plot, terrible CGI, and over-the-top performances that make this fourth installment in the Leprechaun series a memorable, albeit flawed, film. From the unexpected genesis of the movie inspired by an Apollo 13 poster to the bizarre antics of the leprechaun IN SPACE, we cover the highs, lows, and the infamous Mitten Spider transformation. Hear for yourself what we thought of the second fil...

This month's theme: Horror franchises "In SPACE". As we reminisce about the origins of the Critters franchise, comparing it to its contemporaries like Gremlins and Ghoulies, we also puzzle over this entry's plot, performances, and oddly serious tone. Why is Terrence Mann's character suddenly a jerk? And where the f*ck did all the critters go? Listen as we highlight standout performances from surprising actors like Brad Dourif and A...

It's not often you find something unique in the world of horror. Swallowed gave Mark Patton (star of Nightmare on Elm Street 2) a chance to be himself on the silver screen as a gay drug dealer trying to recover his horrifying cargo from the bodies of two young men coerced into smuggling it across the border. Full of uncomfortable tension and frankly excellent performances, Swallowed gave us a lot to talk about and a lot to love. We...

Dive into the surreal world of "The Substance" (2024), where Demi Moore's stunning performance takes her from Hollywood darling to grotesque visionary. With nods to The Shining and the insanity of Eraserhead, this movie punches through traditional narratives and straight into the realm of allegory. But what exactly is it an allegory for? Join us as we dissect this bizarre, critically acclaimed Oscar nominee.

What better choice to honor David Lynch than through his surrealist horror filmm 'Eraserhead'? It's his first feature-length film, released in 1977. We discuss its impact, complex narrative, and unique style. We do our best to explore the film's surrealist elements, its unsettling soundscape, and its enigmatic nature. We also chat a bit about Lynch's story, his filmmaking philosophy, and his influence on other directors and the cin...

Not only was it Anthony Hopkins' favorite sequel (he died a few years later), child actor Henry Thomas scandalized the world with his fascinating portrayal of the young Norman. We've got incest, chain smoking radio hosts, lustful sexiness straight out of a 90's erotic thriller, and the screenwriter of the original all assembled together for a compelling (and occasionally silly) final entry in the saga of the Bates Hotel.

Nope might not have made the biggest splash, but it's a big-screen story with plenty of nail-biting tension, and we had nothing but good things to say. And since it clocks in as one of our longest episodes ever, you might think we had a little TOO much to say. You be the judge of that as you ride along and hopefully check out the movie for yourself - on a big screen, with a killer home sound system (or at least a good pair of noise...

At the very least, even if extreme gore ain't your thing, Terrifier 3s a Christmas movie through and through. And that's how you know that Art The Clown has finally come into his own: He has his own holiday special! Cheers, and Happy Holidays to you and yours this season. See you next year!

Does it intend to make a political statement? Yes. Several. Kind of akin to spending an awkward family holiday dinner with your most overtly racist relatives, it's not gonna fill you with warmth and goodness. But this is a horror movie, after all, so whaddya expect? So drink up and drink in this highly-emotional feature-length Twilight Zone episode of what happens when a family's already-awful Christmas Eve festivities get turned c...
