In this episode, we discuss our thoughts on the film, which was marketed as a horror-comedy but delivered more unsettling psychological horror than laughs. We reflect on the story, performances, and the movie’s eerie presentation of a child’s disturbing reality. Was it a commentary on 1950s parenting norms, or simply a bizarre horror experience?

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...

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.

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...
