Mark returns to the podcast to talk about the 2015 movie The Final Girls. At least for as long as they can manage before Pete and Bryan pull the discussion off the rails again. How will Pete deal with the emotional complexity of the story? Did they really make a movie where Kate Winslet falls in love with Jack Black? Is Ellis from Die Hard the true hero of that movie? All this and more in this week's Scare Value Podcast.
The Scare Value Boys celebrate Godzilla week with a look back at one of the best kaiju battle movies ever made...Godzilla vs. Destoroyah from 1995. It's the end of an era for the King of the Monsters...and a first-time watch for Pete. Will he agree with Bryan's assessment that this is top tier Godzilla? Or is Bryan just blinded by this movie's love for his favorite character Dr. Daisuke Serizawa? Join Godzilla, Junior, Destoroy...
Pete and Kitty detail their recent trip through Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights. Just in time for the event to be over and leave you unable to attend. They also touch on a local haunted house trip while Bryan patiently waits to talk about film festivals he's covering. Plus...all the usual nonsense on this bonus episode of Scare Value Podcast.

The Scare Value Boys try something new! This week Pete and Bryan sit down to talk about all things Halloween. The movie franchise...not the holiday. They endeavor to find a definitive ranking of the long running series. 13 movies...some of the great...some of them fine...some of them so bad they're good...some of them directed by Rob Zombie...one of them starring Busta Rhymes. How will the ranking shake out? Click play to fin...
The Scare Value Boys return to Indonesia (really not really this time) to watch the sequel to Satan's Slaves. It's a first time watch for one of them...you can probably guess which one. He also can't remember anything about it despite watching it very recently. Now you definitely know which one. What will they think of Joko Anwar's continuing Satan's Slave story? Come for the answer...stay for the roleplay segment between pedo...
It's that time of year again...time to try and convince Pete that The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is a masterpiece. This year we watch it side by side with Pete's preferred entry in the series...The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. It's a dual screen watch-along! Will this finally convince Pete that Tobe Hooper's original is great? Or will he get swept up in the comedic moments of Hooper's 12 years later sequel...forcing them to try som...
The Scare Value Boys are back with something special...a look at the 1990 masterpiece Frankenhooker. As usual...it's a first-time watch for one of them. Will he love this beautiful piece of B-movie madness as much as his co-host? There are exploding prostitutes. Of course he will. Will they wander off track to discuss Stone Temple Pilots concerts and the 1996 Keanu Reeves movie Chain Reaction? Of course they will.
We're back with our annual Spooky Season Spectacular! Kitty joins Pete and Bryan to look at all the big horror releases coming out between now and Halloween. At least...all the releases we knew about at the time of this recording. If you want to know what you should be checking out this October...you're just a click away from finding out.

With this year's Spooky Season Spectacular postponed for a week the Scare Value boys discuss two 80s horror comedies. Pete picked this week's movies...and Bryan is left dumfounded after watching his picks. If you remember watching House and House II: The Second Story as a kid...what better way to revisit them then by listening to two middle aged men argue about what in the world was happening in front of and behind their cameras.
...The Scare Value Podcast returns to the Bates Motel to check in on our old friend Norman. That's right...we're doing Psycho II this week. The sequel no one wanted that holds up far better than it has any right to. Instead of taking the easy road and producing a cheap slasher to fit the movies of the time...Psycho II delivers a deep character study...posing the question "Will society ever let someone like Norman Bates be sane?" S...
By popular demand, Watch-Alaugust becomes Watch-Alember...for one week. Having lost out on a week of August watch-alongs due to an unavoidable body swapping incident...the Scare Value Boys sit back and watch Re-Animator as it prepares to celebrate its 40th anniversary. Instructions to watch along are inside...or just listen without bothering to do that. You know it doesn't make much of a difference.

With the rift between the Scare Value Boys threatening the future of the podcast...Pete and Bryan sit down for a little couples therapy on this bonus episode. Pete is holding a grudge about several lies told, and hurtful choices made by, Bryan recently on the podcast. Bryan is equally upset about Pete's being angry about those very real things that he did. Can they work through their issues and save the podcast? Will Pete see n...
Bryan tricks Pete into watching the 2024 smash hit musical Wicked. It does not go over well. Anticipating Pete's negative reaction...Bryan has a special surprise to help him get through the 2 hour and 40 minute movie. Will it be enough? Is their partnership heading towards an end? Will Bryan trick Pete into watching Wicked: For Good next year?
Instructions to watch along with us are just a click away.

Watch-Alaugust continues with a watch-along of Alfred Hitchcock's masterpiece, Psycho. It turns 65 this year...what better way to celebrate than by watching it with two people who don't know what they're talking about? Grab your copy of the mother of all slasher movies...instructions to watch with us are just a click away.

Our new annual tradition Watch-Alaugust kicks off a week late due to some unavoidable body swapping. Pete may not like watch-alongs...but he loves a rebranding. And, as it turns out, The Return of the Living Dead. Joins us for one of the most fun movies of the mid-80s. Instructions to watch with us just a click away.

Pete and Bryan have spent the week in each other's bodies as the result of an unexpected body swap. What better time could there be to watch 2020's slasher comedy/body swap movie Freaky? Spoiler...they spend more time talking about 2025's Superman and arguing about what they've learned in the last week than discussing the movie they were supposed to cover. This is a weird one.

The Scare Value Podcast heads to Taiwan to wrap up its trip through Asian cinema. It gives Pete the chance to exact revenge for a laundry list of aggravations. As crazy as 2021's The Sadness is...this episode might be even crazier. Pete invites a special guest to join the discussion. Since they're in Taiwan you probably already figured out who that is. Eventually...the simmering anger between the Scare Value Boys boils over in...
The Scare Value Boys (fake) expedition through Asia continues with a look at 2004's Shutter from Thailand. In this episode we learn that Pete believes in ghosts but not the subtitles he's reading. So, yeah...the trip is going exactly as well as it has been going.

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
