Welcome to our '90s Vamps series! This October, we'll be discussing some of the most interesting vampire films of the 1990s. This week, we talked about Abel Ferrara's 1995 vampire film The Addiction. We didn't get into it in the episode, but this movie is chock full of actors from The Sopranos.

Welcome to our '90s Vamps series! This October, we'll be discussing some of the most interesting vampire films of the 1990s. This week we cover Guillermo del Toro's first film, Cronos (1992/1993)! Bri and Leah are known members of the GDT cult, so I think you can guess how this one turned out.

If you'd like to hear us discuss GDT some more, check out our Blade II episode here:

Welcome to our '90s Vamps series! This October, we'll be discussing some of the most interesting vampire films of the 1990s. We kick off the theme with From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's vampire crime western that spawned off a franchise. Bri and Leah had never seen it before, and we were... not of the majority opinion. If you love this movie, maybe this episode isn't for you! <...

This week, Leah and Bri dive into Let Me In (2010, dir. Matt Reeves), the American remake of Let the Right One In. While this film is pretty well regarded as far as English-language remakes go, we both find it lacking. If you haven't listened to our episode on the original, make sure to check that one out, too! It's much more positive.

As always, this episode is marked explicit for a handful of f-bombs.

This week Leah and Bri cover a relatively new release, The Last Voyage of the Demeter (dir. André Øvredal, 2023). Taking inspiration from a single passage in the Bram Stoker classic Dracula, this film spins an embellished tale of the last doomed voyage of the cargo ship the titular vampire took over on his way to England.  Find out what we thought of this latest 'surprise' Dracula fall content, spoiler: we disagree!

Join Leah and Bri this summer as we recap the new episodes of season 5 of What We Do in the Shadows! We are so excited to cover this season episode-by-episode as it airs.

We're covering 5.3, "Pride Parade" (aired July 20, 2023). It was just as gay and wild as you'd expect and we loved every depraved minute, as usual.

Join Leah and Bri this summer as we recap the new episodes of season 5 of What We Do in the Shadows! We are so excited to cover this season episode-by-episode as it airs. This a double episode, since FX dropped the first to eps of the season at once. We're covering 5.1, "The Mall," and 5.2, "A Night Out with the Guys" (both aired July 13, 2023). Don't worry, we spend plenty of time discussing whether o...

This week, Bri and Leah disagree about the merits of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003, dir. Stephen Norrington). It's a Fang Club reunion, with quite a few returning players making appearances in this episode! As usual, this episode is marked explicit for a handful of f-bombs.

This week, Leah and Bri chat about another Irish vampire film: Boys from County Hell (dir. Chris Baugh, 2020). We enjoyed this folk-horror spin on the usual vampire lore! We're out here stumping for Shudder (our favorite streaming service) yet again. As usual, this episode is marked explicit for some swearing.

For our momentous 75th episode, Bri and Leah finally decided to cover Only Lovers Left Alive (2013/14, dir. Jim Jarmusch). This film is a personal favorite of both hosts and a major entry in the 21st-century vampire film canon. We previously discussed this film briefly in our Hot Vampires Valentine's Day special (episode 21), if you want a little more Only Lovers chat!

That's right, it's time to wrap up our Underworld coverage with an episode on the fifth (and so far final) installment in the franchise. Underworld: Blood Wars (2017, dir. Anna Foerster) doesn't end the series with a bang, but we still liked it better than Awakening. Stay until the end for Bri and Leah's official Underworld rankings.

This week, Bri and Leah chat about a new release! We're talking about Renfield (2023, dir. Chris McKay).

(We also verbally note in the episode when we get to the spoiler section.) As always, the episode is marked explicit for some f-bombs (as in,...
