    #100 - Cursed Rotary Phones & Villains Who Accessorize Aggressively (Black Phone 1 & 2)

    28-1-2026 | 1 u. 24 Min.
    Three horror nerds sat down to calmly discuss The Black Phone (2021), directed by Scott Derrickson.
    That did not happen.
    Instead, we immediately spiraled into an emotional basement and started yelling about ghost children, cursed rotary phones, and Ethan Hawke wearing enough masks to legally qualify as a Halloween store franchise.
    We break down how The Black Phone is somehow:
    A Supernatural ghost story
    A kidnapping survival thriller
    A coming-of-age movie
    And a reminder that the 1970s were just Violence and Vibes
    Scott Derrickson really said, “Let’s emotionally destroy some children but in a wholesome teamwork way,” and we respect the craftsmanship.
    We scream about:
    The Grabber's unsettling calm
    His deeply aggressive snack etiquette
    Why every horror basement is structurally perfect for crimes
    How the ghost kids run the most organized afterlife call center in cinema history
    Then we absolutely lose control speculating about The Black Phone 2 (also directed by Scott Derrickson), because horror sequels never stop and neither does trauma. Will the phone upgrade? Will the ghosts unionize? Will Ethan Hawke show up in even MORE masks like he’s collecting them Pokémon-style? We demand answers the movie legally cannot provide yet.
    At some point this episode fully derails into:
    Ranking haunted objects (phone vs TV vs mirror vs possessed Nokia that will not die)
    Debating if kids in horror movies ever get summer vacations?
    Accidently turning the podcast into a "Justice for Ghost Children" advocacy group.
    We also give love to how The Black Phone feels like a modern throwback to Stephen King-style childhood horror while still being mean, nasty, and emotionally rude in all the right ways.
    By the end of the episode, we’re convinced:
    Never answer mysterious phones
    Never go into the basement
    Ghost children are better at teamwork than adults

    #99 – Fairy Tales, Flesh Traps, & Vomit Trauma (Ugly Stepsister. Together)

    20-1-2026 | 1 u. 13 Min.
    In this absolutely unglued episode, your favorite movie goblins spiral into a double feature of romantic body horror nightmares, breaking down Together, directed by Michael Shanks, and The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt — two films that boldly ask the question:“What if love… but also screaming?”
    First up, we tackle Together, where relationships, intimacy, and human bodies all politely agree to stop following the rules of God, science, and decency. We yell about uncomfortable closeness, emotional dependency taken to Cronenberg levels, and how this movie feels like couples therapy if your therapist was a cursed swamp witch.
    Every conversation somehow becomes:
    “Would you survive this situation?” (No)
    “Is this romantic or a biohazard?” (Yes)
    “Why is the human body like this?” (Rude of it, honestly)
    Shanks clearly woke up one day and said, “Let’s emotionally terrorize everyone who’s ever been in a relationship,” and we respect the commitment to violence.
    Then we skip gleefully into the bloody fairy tale hellscape of The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt, a gorgeous, grotesque body-horror remix of Cinderella that proves beauty standards have always been a full-contact sport.
    We lose our collective minds over:
    Medieval cosmetic surgery nightmares
    Vomit trauma (so much vomit trauma)
    Beauty rituals that feel like OSHA violations
    The sheer audacity of adding in THAT MANY you-know-what
    We praise Blichfeldt for crafting a film that feels like it crawled out of a cursed storybook soaked in blood, jealousy, and bad vibes.
    Somewhere along the way the episode derails into:
    Screaming about practical effects like proud raccoons
    Debating which movie would emotionally destroy us faster
    Questioning every weight loss method ever
    Arguing whether fairy tales were always body horror and we were just naïve little fools
    Declaring that love is beautiful, disgusting, and possibly haunted
    This episode is basically three horror nerds laughing hysterically while being spiritually attacked by intimate trauma cinema and cursed fairytale energy.

    #98 – Emotional Fatality (Mortal Kombat & Mortal Kombat: Annihilation)

    13-1-2026 | 1 u. 47 Min.
    Your favorite sleep-deprived monsters return this week to dive headfirst into Mortal Kombat (1995), directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, and its chaotic little gremlin cousin Mortal Kombat:Annihilation (1997), directed by John R. Leonetti. What begins as nostalgic love for flying bicycle kicks, techno bangers, and flawless ’90s vibes quickly mutates into a full-scale emotional fatality.
    We lovingly scream about how the first Mortal Kombat is still a beautiful, dumb, perfect arcade fever dream where every punch sounds like someone slapping a rotisserie chicken and every slow-motion kick feels like cinema history. Paul W.S. Anderson gave us glowing eyes, practical sets, unforgettable character entrances, and a soundtrack that could legally be classified as a controlled substance. This movie didn’t just raise us — it babysat us while our parents were in Blockbuster arguing about late fees.
    Then… we willingly walk into the Outworld disaster zone that is Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, a sequel that bravely asks the question: “What if we replaced half the cast, forgot how physics works, and spent the entire budget on Party City cosplay and unfinished CGI dragons?”
    We spiral into madness over:
    •Johnny Cage getting deleted faster than a bad tweet
    •Raiden turning into a dust cloud instead of, you know, lightning (sir???)
    •Random characters popping in like cursed Pokémon cards
    •Animalities happening whenever they feel emotionally ready
    •A centaur that may or may not be two American Gladiators sewn together in a garage
    At some point the episode completely derails into debates about centaur anatomy, bad sequel trauma, why Scorpion keeps shooting demon snakes instead of a perfectly good spike-on-a-rope, and how this movie taught us — as children — that sometimes art hurts you on purpose.
    Through laughter, yelling, nostalgic joy, and light emotional damage, we celebrate what makes the Mortal Kombatmovie franchise endlessly rewatchable: insane fight choreography, iconic characters, wildly questionable creative choices, and the kind of beautiful stupidity only ’90s genre cinema could deliver.

    #97 – Desert Heat, Bad Vibes, & Pure “I Woke Up and Chose Violence” (Surviving the Game. The Hitcher. Hobo with a Shotgun)

    16-12-2025 | 1 u. 43 Min.
    This week, your favorite horror gremlins go on a full-blown Rutger Hauer appreciation spiral and collectively realize that Rutger Hauer might not have been acting—he might have just been like that.
    We dive headfirst into The Hitcher (1986), directed by Robert Harmon, a movie that wastes absolutely zero time politely introducing itself before immediately threatening your entire family. Rutger Hauer plays John Ryder like a supernatural force powered by desert heat, bad vibes, and pure “I woke up and chose violence.” We scream about the opening minutes, the lack of motivation (KING SHIT), the daytime horror, the infamous truck scene, and how this movie somehow convinces you thatthe cops are useless, the road is evil, and hitchhiking is basically consenting to a curse.
    Then we pivot into Surviving the Game (1994), directed by Ernest R. Dickerson, aka The Most Unhinged Rich White People Activity Ever Filmed. The legend that is Ice-T takes on Rutger Hauer, Gary Busey (at MAXIMUM Gary Busey), John C. McGinley, and F. Murray Abraham after they form the most deranged hunting party imaginable. We lose our minds over:
    Gary Busey writing his own monologue like a cursed prophet
    The flaming Gary Busey jump scare (cinema peaked here)
    Ice-T being hunted and immediately becoming an apex predator and deciding "nah, actually, I'm hunting YOU"
    A trophy room that traumatized us as children and still kinda does
    To complete the holy trinity, we bring in Hobo with a Shotgun (2011), directed by Jason Eisener, where Rutger Hauer plays a homeless vigilante like he’s a mythological figure spawned from grindhouse fumes and righteous rage. We talk about how this movie feels like a fever dream someone had after watching too much VHS-era exploitation and how Rutger Hauer somehow makes “hobo with a shotgun” feel emotionally profound.
    Throughout the episode we:
    Argue about VHS vs 4K like it's a religion
    Praise Rutger Hauer for playing three completely different psychos flawlessly
    Accidently turn the podcast into Sam Elliott's Mustache: The Extended Cut
    Realize half these movies would absolutely rule even harder if they were slightly grainier and worse quality
    Agree that Rutger Hauer is one of the most underrated genre actors of all time
    This is less a review episode and more a group therapy session for people permanently altered by desert highways, human hunting games, and shotgun blasts.

    #96 – Jake Gyllenhaal Hair Worship & Trauma-Cinema (Prisoners. Nightcrawler. Bubble Boy)

    09-12-2025 | 2 u.
    In this episode, your favorite chaos-goblins sit down to talk about Prisoners (2013, directed by Denis Villeneuve)—which is technically a prestige thriller but FEELS like a horror movie—and Nightcrawler (2014, directed by Dan Gilroy), where Jake Gyllenhaal becomes a sentient camera tripod powered entirely by caffeine and questionable ethics.
    🕳️ PRISONERS (2013, dir. Denis Villeneuve)
    We start with Prisoners, where Hugh Jackman goes full Wolverine Dad Mode, Paul Dano gets bullied by literally everyone, including the movie itself, and Villeneuve proves he could direct a grocery store receipt, and we’d call it a masterpiece.
    We then spend 40 minutes yelling:
    Is Hugh Jackman okay??
    Does Villeneuve know sunlight exists???
    Why is every house in this movie legally obligated to contain the world’s saddest basement??
    Is this the darkest Thanksgiving movie ever madeor is that just every Thanksgiving in America?
    📸 NIGHTCRAWLER (2014, dir. Dan Gilroy)
    Then we sprint face-first into Nightcrawler, where Jake Gyllenhaal plays Lou Bloom like he’s half demonic raccoon, half camera salesman, who learned business ethics from YouTube crypto bros, and dedicate approximately 30 minutes debating whether he’s an alien, vampire, or just a dude powered by stale Red Bull and moral decay.
    Is this movie a warning about capitalism or a how-to manual for sociopaths? Considering this film emotionally waterboards the viewer for 2-hours, we’re going with both.
    🎥 Along the way we derail into:
    Trauma-based cinematography
    True crime as a full-contact sport
    Why rainy thrillers are scientifically scarier
    Why Jake Gyllenhaal should never be allowed near a news crew
    How Denis Villeneuve directs every movie like thearpy but the kind that makes you cry in public
    🔥 Films sacrificed on this altar:
    Prisoners
    Nightcrawler
    Plus, random shouting about
    Zodiac
    Se7en
    and like 14 other films that get yelled into a microphone with absolutely no warning
    If you like Jake Gyllenhaal being weird, trauma cinema, and true crime, then buckle up, buttercup, this episode will spiritually destroy you (in a fun way).
