Episode 330: Buddy. Children must escape a 90s kids television show (think Barney) when the titular pink unicorn goes on an ax welding rampage. It all makes sense as written and directed by Casper Kelly (Too Many Cooks, Fun Size) at his surrealist fever dream best. We loved it. Plus, The Banana Splits Movie, Willy’s Wonderland, and more.

Episode 329: Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. The third and final feature film installment of writer/director Jane Schoenbrun's "screen trilogy" has hit theaters as a Mubi release that was too weird for A24 but perfectly weird for us. Spoiler: We loved it. It is a cinematic gift to horror film fans and we want everyone to see it. Go to this movie. Plus, I Saw the TV Glow.

Episode 328: The End of Oak Street. From writer/director David Robert Mitchell (It Follows) and producer J.J. Abrams, The End of Oak Street promises a sci-fi survival thriller where Jurassic Park meets 1980s suburbia. And this time, the dinosaurs have feathers. Plus, in advance of the upcoming Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, a look back at Jane Schoenbrun's debut feature, We're All Going to the World's Fair (2022).

Episode 327: Ice Cream Man. The latest feature from Eli Roth’s Horror Section is courting controversy for all the wrong reasons. Never mind the splatter and tasteless humor (or the reference to A Serbian Film), there’s plenty more to be mad at in Ice Cream Man and we will give you the scoop.

Episode 326: Saccharine. From the director of Relic (2020) and Apartment 7A (2024), comes a new Shudder original film that asks the question, what’s eating you? Australian filmmaker Natalie Erika James feeds us a steady diet of body horror and familial fear in this surprisingly ambitious food porn epic. Plus, a look at the forgotten Norwegian slasher franchise, Cold Prey.

Episode 325: The Neon Demon. Episode 325: The Neon Demon. With the release of Her Private Hell, Nicolas Winding Refn’s first feature film in a decade, we take a look back at 2016’s The Neon Demon. A heavily stylized and critically polarizing journey into the dark heart of beauty starring Elle Fanning, Jena Malone, and Keanu Reeves. Because beauty isn’t everything, it’s the only thing.

Episode 324: Evil Dead Burn. The sixth installment of the Evil Dead film franchise comes just three years after Evil Dead Rise, the shortest gap between sequels since 1990’s Army of Darkness, with a seventh film (Evil Dead Wrath) scheduled for release in 2028. How does writer and director Sébastien Vaniček’s entry stack up against the rest of the newly expanding franchise and what does it mean for its future? Everything’s coming up dead.

Episode 323: In a Violent Nature - Resident Evil (2002). In anticipation of In a Violent Nature 2 and a new Resident Evil film later this year, we took a look back at the origins of each franchise, one recent and one from a distant past. Spoiler: Let's hope the new Resident Evil holds up better in 20 years than the first one!

Episode 322: Leviticus. The feature film debut of Australian writer/director Adrian Chiarella tells the story of forbidden love between two teen boys in a deeply conservative, rural township and the curse set upon them by church leaders that turns what they love most against them. Leviticus won't get the kind attention that some horror releases have enjoyed this year but it did get a theatrical release and we think it's well worth a look. Plus, a well known film that Leviticus inevitably calls to mind, no spoilers.

Episode 321: Dolly/Heresy/Blood Creek. Out of sequence episode recorded earlier this year checking out two new Shudder original/exclusives and a 2009 Joel Schumacher deep cut about ancient Nazi vampires that was not called Nazferatu. Inexcusable.
