In times of great upheaval, it helps to sit and do some self-reflection… unless of course that self-reflection is in a cursed mirror. That’s a big no no. To illustrate what kind of mayhem this leads to, we’re watching 1990’s lost gem MIRROR MIRROR. It’s got Temu Lydia Deetz in it so you know this thing is a blast! Let’s stare at ourselves until our demonic alter egos take over our lives and leave us in a hellish time loop this week on Horror Movie Night!

It’s the 45th anniversary of one of horror’s most beloved franchises, and we have the holiday it took its name from falling in the month it’s supposed to be occurring - there was no way we were going to let this kind of opportunity slip away from us! We’re one step closer to discussing the entire franchise now that we’ve finally picked FRIDAY THE 13TH (1980) and you know what? There’s nothing wrong with that. This is a warm blanket kind of summer slasher for us and yet we were still able to surprise each other with some new factoids and anecdotes - that makes us three very happy campers!

There’s nothing like summer in the city, except perhaps summer in the city plus a smooth operator who also happens to be an immortal bloodsucker trying to steal your girl (who is also your coworker and that’s just an HR violation waiting to happen…). Things are heating up this week as we talk Wes Craven’s much-maligned Eddie Murphy vehicle VAMPIRE IN BROOKLYN (1995). It’s actually a pretty solid flick and doesn’t deserve the flak it got, let’s see if we can change some hearts and minds!

Everybody loves an underdog story, so when a franchise is able follow up a stinker of an entry with a fan favorite, you know we’ve got to talk about it. EXORCIST III: LEGION ((1990) is one such film and it atones for every sin from Exorcist II: The Heretic - just check its prayer beads! It’s got William Peter Blatty in the writer AND director’s chair, George C. Scott and Brad Dourif… You can’t go wrong with that kind of star power. It’s also got jump scares that rival the original, another feat worth praising. Come wash away your transgressions with a confession session at the church of HMN!

Imagine a time when the biggest action star in the world wasn’t some musclebound dude with an oiled-up chest wearing a loincloth, but rather a tall, slim guy whose catch phrase was “whoa.” If you’re imagining Keanu Reeves, good; if you’re imagining him as John Wick, you gotta go back further, to the Matrix days of the early 00s. Now, imagine that he and a young Shia LaBeouf are kickass exorcists and the guy from Bush is a demon. Seriously! That might’ve been the elevator pitch for CONSTANTINE (2005). Based on the comic book Hellblazer in the most superficial ways, this one might be a contentious pick for those who don’t consider it horror, but it’s our show and we say angels, demons and sick forearm sigil tatz give it a pass.

What would a year of anniversaries be without a slasher who goes after brides so they can never see their first wedding anniversary? On the other hand, he also seems to be willing to kill people who are only tertiarally related to his victims - like the guy working at the wedding dress shop who was unlucky enough to do a fitting for one of the killer’s potential victims. Pretty sloppy if you ask us. We get into this and more to celebrate the nuptials of HE KNOWS YOU’RE ALONE (1980) and Horror Movie Night this week on the show!

In celebration of Geekscape’s newest podcast, The Phantom of the Podpera, we invite Kyle’s cohost Evan Fonseca on to discuss the anniversary of Disney Channel’s take on the mischievous masked man, 2000’s THE PHANTOM OF THE MEGAPLEX. Is this a horror movie? Not particularly. Has it aged well? Also, no. But one of the maligned theaters in the titular megaplex is, in fact, showing an HMN favorite: the infamous raincoat terrorize of ALICE SWEET ALICE! Let our 4 handsome voices serenade you this week on Horror Movie Night.

We are finally back to a Giallo movie with one of the least offensive (but still plenty of trashiness here) classic Phenomena! This movie didn't BUG us but it's pacing did CREEP up on us.

This March at Creature Feature Weekend Kyle was given the opportunity to talk to the cast of 1985's Fright Night live on stage. Enjoy!

We’ve talked the remake, we’ve talked the sequel, but tonight, it’s time to talk about the start of it all, the one and only FRIGHT NIGHT (1985). Recorded in person at Creature Feature Weekend 2025, we went back to the beginning to fawn over sexy vampires and some seriously amazing transformations. We’re all toothy smiles and bloodthirsty intent as we say nothing but good things about a movie that deserves all the praise it’s gotten for the last 40 years. Matt even serves up an incredible pitch for a Fright Night series… a couple decades too late. Invite us in, why don’t you?

A later entry into the legendary George Romero’s filmography? There is no way this could be anything less than a masterpiece… This week, Kyle subjected us to 2000’s head-scratchingly-titled BRUISER, in which a meek magazine editor gets a chance to knock off everyone who has ever inconvenienced him thanks to his crappy boss’s wife and her low-level mask-making skills. While the movie itself isn’t great, it took us on a real journey discussing the underlying social issues it tried to comment on. Was it successful? Unclear, but at least we got to wax poetic about it on the show. Let’s get psycho(analyzed)!

We love tiny terrors so much on this show that we could barely wait to discuss another classic, 1985’s GHOULIES! While perhaps slightly less bombastic as the sequel, the original entry in the Ghoulies franchise is still full of delightfully absurd moments and a ton of pint-sized pain. We may have had to wait until the next installment to see a Ghoulie eat a dude’s ass, but it was perfectly foreshadowed with its predecessor, so let’s show the OG some respect for its 40th birthday or the little butt-munchers will finally get us. Send help.

We've passed 500 episodes so we decide to do another round of "Does This Count As a Horror Movie?" Thanks to the popularity of Evil Dead 2, Sam Raimi was able to follow it up with this original Superhero film inspired by Universal Monsters and the radio drama The Shadow. Between obvious homages to Phantom of the Opera and Invisible Man and the evil being played by Larry Drake we feel pretty confident saying this counts!

Back in 2010 when I first started podcasting I had a short lived show called "The Saint Mort Show". Most of this content is long gone because it was poorly made BUT it was the place where I first cut my teeth as a podcaster and on the first episode I talked to Troll 2 star George Hardy about the movie, the Best Worst Movie documentary and his new projects which included a film called Ghost Shark 2: Urban Jaws.
Enjoy this despite the mediocre sound quality.

FIVE HUNDRED EPISODES? How, you ask? Well, we don’t have a good answer but we DO have a good guest along with us as we travel to the ill-fated town of Nilbog on a house-swapping (?) adventure: Robert Bacon! For our 500th conversation, we enjoy a rewatch of the infamous “best worst movie” TROLL 2 (1990), which has zero trolls but a ton of goblins. Bacon is a self-made bad movie connoisseur and asserts that this one is NOT an actual bad movie, not by a mile, but rather a work of art when one considers it from the perspective of a stage play. This thesis really has legs, which probably made the trolls(goblins) super mad because really, who can’t outrun monsters that short?

If you weren’t afraid of industrial laundry machines, well guess again sucker! Tobe Hooper was brave enough to film a screen adaptation of one of Stephen King’s earliest short stories and 30 years later, we’re talking about THE MANGLER (1995). Obviously, some liberties were taken in the storytelling aspect here to pad it out into a feature-length film, but the basic tale is more or less intact: possessed laundry machine likes the taste of people and eventually becomes sentient and chases the detective main character around town. The premise is wacky and Hooper really got into the scrubbing here, so our discussion has time to… air dry, if you will…

By sheer strength of will (and a poor long-term memory), we made it almost a decade on this show without touching one of most HMN movies to ever grace the silver screen. Don’t knock our blocks off, it’s finally time to dissect 1985’s perfect RE-ANIMATOR! Is this a perfect movie? Well yeah, and a lot of shows have said so already but here’s us jumping on the Stuart Gordon bandwagon!

If last month threw you off a little, rest easy knowing we’re back to our regular content with a giant animal on the loose eating people at weddings. It’s about damn time we give 1980s ALLIGATOR a fresh watch and reminisce about how much that pool scene has shaped Matt’s worldview. Dive into this week’s episode or we’ll push you like the little jerks in pirate costumes we are.

It’s our last week of Foreign Film February and we wanted to say”bonjour!” It’s too our faces have been horribly disfigured and the masks we wear garble our already-rough pronunciations. We’re mushmouthing our way through 1960’s French classic EYES WITHOUT A FACE and it’s still impressive the amount of horror and gore they were able to display at the time of filming. Things were different back then, just look at this crazy doctor doing unlicensed experiments at home!
