This week we're getting into an old Hollywood classic: the 1962 psychological horror film "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?"

This week we're enjoying (?) a piece of real garbage: the 1989 installment in the "Nightmare on Elm Street" franchise, "Part 5: The Dream Child." Yeah, there's no dancing around it this week-- it is 100% terrible. It does provide us with some great special topics though, including the fact that his movie expects us to have seen and remember all or at least some of the preceding movies, the sheer volume of Freddy quips, baby Freddy having burns and the fact that this is not even the least sensical part of this movie, a Great British Bake Off shoutout and a very special announcement. Can't get enough Freddy? We covered the original "Nightmare on Elm Street" in Episode 4 (!) so go back and listen to us not be entirely sure how to do a comedy podcast. Have you seen this one? If so...did it make any sense to you? Did you see the movies leading up to it?

In this week's episode, we're discussing one of the most highly-regarded horror movies of 2015: "We Are Still Here." Special topics for your consideration include: holes that whoosh, being very ashy, the wonder of Barbara Crampton, when exactly movies should tell us information that is important to the plot (spoiler: it's not the end credits), Dagwood sandwiches and the fact that maybe we just kinda didn't get this one.  Did you see this one?

We hope that all of our EMTs had a lucky and lovely Friday the 13th last week. In honor of this dubious holiday, we picked a dubious movie: the 8th installment in the "Friday the 13th" franchise, "Jason Takes Manhattan." Why? Because we have no self-respect, seemingly. This one's a doozy. Special topics for your consideration include: the fact that this movie is achingly long for no real reason, concerns about how Toby gets around, extraordinarily bad acting, Vancouver! It's definitely Vancouver!, great funeral ideas, inexplicable coincidences and inexplicable toxic waste and the return of Mailbag!

Happy New Years, EMTs! We'd love to kick it off with a real doozy of a movie, selected by our very first repeat guest, our pal Carrie. She's picked the 1977 Japanese psychedelic horror film "Hausu." Special topics for your consideration include: the weirdness of cats, not being sure whether something is bananas or just lost in the translation, why the hell Mr. Togo is even in this movie, facts about people such as Howard Hughes and the idea that more movies ought to be written by 11-year-old girls.  Have you seen this one?

In our third annual Christmas episode, we're discussing the 1974 Canadian slasher "Black Christmas." Special topics for your consideration include: not knowing any of the words to any actual Christmas carols, refusing to acknowledge an entire floor of the house, being bad at piano, being good at wearing fur coats and calling from iiiinsiiiiide the hoooouuuuse!

After wayyy too many weeks spent pondering what was happening in cinema in the early 2000s, we've gone back to the 80s (and Stephen King and John Carpenter) with the boy-meets-car, boy-falls-in-love-with-car, car-ruins-boy's-life classic "Christine." Special topics for your consideration include: very serious discussions of science and philosophy, less serious discussions about mechanophilia, even LESS serious discussions about the series "Friday Night Lights" in which it is revealed we can't remember a damn thing about it, and Allen attempts to explain how drive-in movie theatres work, despite not actually knowing how drive-in movie theatres work.
