Episode 354 - No Quittin' on Mitton 3: The Harbinger (2022)
If you’ve come here for thoughts on the 2022 Andy Mitton film ‘The Harbinger’, you are in luck. If you’ve come to hear two guys in their 40’s who never actually looked at the word “Harbinger” and think it’s ok to pronounce it as “HarBRINGer” or “HarBINger” rather than “HarBUNger”, you are also in luck. If you’ve come because you accidentally watched the 2022 Will Klipstine film “The Harbinger”, we sympathize, but we’re talking about Andy Mitton film, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

Episode 353 - No Quittin' on Mitton 2: The Witch in the Window (2018)
When you’re banging through usually pretty meh movie after movie for a podcast, coming across a 77 minute film is a welcome respite. Even better is when that 77 minute film is actually a good movie, like 2018’s ‘The Witch in the Window’, the film that JR has been praising for the past 300+ episodes. Give it a watch, give us a listen, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

Episode 352 - No Quittin' on Mitton 1: YellowBrickRoad (2010)
Did you know the furthest you can be from a road in New Hampshire is 4.4 miles? Nobody tell that to the cosmic entity in 2010’s ‘YellowBrickRoad’, the first in our series of Andy Mitton related films. That’s right, the thing JR has been talking about for the past 9 years is finally happening, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

Episode 351 - The Shout (1978)
You can shout in three different ways: by letting it all out, by kicking your heels up, or by watching 1978’s ‘The Shout’. We’ve been hearing about this one for years, but like so many movies these days it’s a real pain in the ass to find a decent copy, so we settled for a pretty meh quality stream. The lack of movie availability in this foul year of our lord 2025 makes me so mad that I want to… complain loudly.

Episode 350 - Dead Mail (2024)
Finally, a movie about how great the Post Office USED to be! Have you ever gone to the Post Office and found that there is only one person working, and there are 38 people in line in front of you, and all of them have a dozen random packages that need a variety of tapes and weights and forms that are inevitably wrong? 2024’s ‘Dead Mail’ is better than that, but how much better will vary on your love of low budget 70’s films, but at least you won’t be waiting in line for an hour.
Join marginally popular dark fiction author J.R. Hamantaschen (“You Shall Never Know Security,” “With a Voice that is Often Still Confused But is Becoming Ever Louder and Clearer,” several unrequited love letters) and Derek Sotak (“Nachonomics,” “The Field Guide to Nachos,” “Nachos & You,” and a violent call to arms to be uncovered circa 2025) as they discuss the world of horror in (what is hopefully perceived to be) a light-hearted, frivolous and irreverent way. Those are all three words they’ve never previously been associated with, but here’s hoping! Expect horror fiction, horror movies, horror culture, and interviews / hang-out sessions with authors and creators in the field.
