Werewolf Ambulance

In this week's episode, we decided that maybe we'd been having too much fun lately and wanted to bring it down a notch with the 2008 Australian ghost story "Lake Mungo." Special topics for your consideration include: a bit of sadness, a bit of existential dread, a surprising lack of knowledge when it comes to drug terminology, loose understandings of what a doppelganger is, boomer talk and a suggestion for a KidzBop album that is just never gonna get made.  Like atmospheric ghost-y movies? You may enjoy Episode 161- "I Am The Pretty Thing That Lives in the House." How about Australian horror? You could check out Episode 11- "The Babadook" and as a bonus, Episode 78- "Housebound" (yes, we know that New Zealand is a separate country but Oceania, right?) We couldn't really think of many fun things to do when it comes to this sad sad movie for our Youtube companion episode, so we read some very fun Mailbags and made some jokes.

In this week's episode, we try to keep the Halloween vibes alive with the 2015 found footage film "Hell House LLC."

In this week's episode, we talk about a bunch of people we think we might know from other things with the 1984 sci-fi horror film "C.H.U.D." Special topics for your consideration include: a deep dive on the career and sartorial choices of one Mr. Daniel Stern, a lil bit of baseball talk, sitcoms, cop 'tude, signs of a toxic relationship and the kind of loopiness that we can only muster with a rare afternoon recording session. If you like "C.H.U.D." and movies like it, you may also enjoy Episode 50- "The Blob," Episode 171- "Ghoulies" or maybe Episode 180- "The Stuff."

In this week's episode we're discussing the 1993 kid-friendly horror film "Hocus Pocus," but a word to the wise: this episode is not kid-friendly as we originally intended. Whoops! Special topics for your consideration include: French aristocrat parties?!, the potential for "peak SJP" and also lightly crushing on Matthew Broderick, what happens when a teenage boy is turned into a cat, wondering whether we actually tried to start a feud with Bette Midler or if we're mis-remembering and the most wonderful time of the year.  If you're looking for a kid-friendly episode, we did exactly one. It's Episode 82- "Coraline." If you're looking for a terribly un-kid-friendly episode, perhaps try Episode 127- "Slither," which is like 80% dick jokes.  Please also go check out our YouTube companion episode for this week, in which we rank the all-time movie witches and open a gift from a listener.

In this week's episode, our 250th (!!!), we're asking ourselves the question "who is this movie for, and dear god, why?" with the 1996 horror thriller "Fear." Special topics for your consideration include: how the roller coaster scene affects a 15 year old's brain, the not-so-believable appeal of meth guys, inexplicable Chucky dolls, a Bush sponsorship, potty training theories and WEREWOLF AMBULANCE 4EVA. Do you like Mark Wahlberg? (If so...why?) Anyway, you can catch him again in Episode 12- "The Happening." Do you like teen romps? You may like Episode 44- "Scream." How about home invasion films?

In this week's episode, we're revisiting an old friend we haven't seen since Episode 21 with "Creepshow 2" except now the old friend is weird and like, kind of matted and gross and after awhile you start to feel like maybe reuniting wasn't the greatest idea. Special topics for your consideration include: some confusion over what actually constitutes beautiful hair, misplaced confidence, a cautionary tale for aspiring filmmakers, being surprised at actually knowing things and a few things we love: 80s animation, T-tops and Tom Savini. If you like anthologies, you can check out Episode 21- "Creepshow," Episode 68- "Trick r Treat," Episode 102- "Holidays," Episode 132- "Tales from the Darkside" and Episode 178- "The Twilight Zone."

In this week's episode, we're discussing another film from the very specific horror sub-genre called Movies that Rip Off Jaws. This one is from 1978-- "Piranha." Special topics for your consideration include: the fact that this movie stars a dog named Jack Cardwell, extremely weird running and diving, deciding that you're someone's mom just because you hooked up with their dad, Lisa Left Eye Lopes, pluralizing "piranha" and again, because it bears repeating: this movie stars a dog named Jack Cardwell. You like Jaws ripoffs? Lucky for you, we've covered two of them! Check out Episode 41- "L'Ultimo Squalo (The Last Shark)" and Episode 193- "Orca." And because you love those Jaws ripoffs so much, we're doing another one next week! We'll be discussing the 1976 film "Grizzly" because why wouldn't we?

Special topics for your consideration include: the most requested film in a very short period of time, our respective thresholds for being completely grossed out, basing one's relationships on messages from tarot cards, cutie lil zombie baby, and the joy of kung fu priests.  Are you into gross stuff? Yeah, I bet you are, grosso! Check out our Hellraiser series with the original (Episode 51) and "Hellraiser II: Hellbound" (Episode 205) or maybe something even worse: Episode 181- "Tusk."

In this week's episode we take a voyage into our neighbor to the south, West Virginia, for the 2002 cryptid thriller (?) "Mothman Prophecies." Special topics for your consideration include: an AMA about Point Pleasant, the theoretical attractiveness of Richard Gere to women of a particular age, the Mothman's thirstiness, having a bridge phobia in a city full of bridges, the problem with conspiracy theories and the national treasure that is Laura Linney.

Before we get into this week's episode, we just want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for the kind words on our first YouTube video. We (or at least I [Katie]) legit cried reading your comments. You are all fantastic and we are so lucky to have you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.   And onto this week's episode! We are returning to Allen's loves of both the mid-80s and hair metal with the 1986 film "Witchboard" starring Tawny Kitaen of Whitesnake video fame. Special topics for your consideration include: the proper pronunciation of ouija ("WEEEE-JAAAAAH!"), the concept of reaching across the veil and asking the dead the dumbest possible questions, waterbeds: what/why?, more inappropriate funereal headwear, and the high highs and low lows of 80s hair.  Some of our favorite episodes of this show covered movies that were released in 1986.

In this week's episode, we're back to the Freddy well for the third installment of the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" franchise, "Dream Warriors" from 1987. Special topics for your consideration include: MOVIE PUNKS!, a new catchphrase for us, having to revise our opinions of Freddy Krueger, absolutely wonderful practical effects, a fiery debate about candy and the fact that neither of us can remember a single thing about "A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child" despite having covered it on this podcast.  Are you interested in that episode?

In this week's episode, we get nostalgic for the 90s and for Luke Perry in the 1992 film "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Special topics for your consideration include: Allen possibly outing himself as a sociopath, demanding that Delaware do better by its teens, trying to figure out Pike's deal, Pee-wee's raw deal and remembering some actors as...well, better than they actually are.  Are you into vampire comedies?
