Horror Weekly Episode #317 We’ve got an eclectic mix this week. We’ll start off with the Korean ghost-curse tale, “Exhuma,” and follow that up with the ghostly “Chateau.” Then we’ll drop the ghosts and meet some serial killers in “The Mouse Trap” and “#AMFAD All My Friends Are Dead.” We’ll then go all retro and see what might have happened back in the year 2000 with “Y2K.”   And, of course, we have more excellent short films for you!

Horror Weekly Episode #316 After our monthly holiday binge, it’s time to get back to normal. Well, “Normal” is relative with us, but you get the gist. We’ve got a very cool mix of winners and losers for you this week, With one big high, one big low, and some decent films in the middle. We’ll start out with “Werewolves,” a fun film with a crazy premise that really goes off the logic rails. We’ll find out that “It’s What’s Inside” was an overlooked gem from last year. We’ll do an indie release next, with the ridiculous “The Yorkie Werewolf” and then a low-budget-ish comedic creature feature, “Invisible Raptor.” Then we’ll finish up with the talky sex-drama “Swap,” which pretends to be a vampire movie in the last ten minutes.  And, of course, we have more excellent short films for you!

We made a list of everything we watched that was released in 2024, and we each made a top-ten list.

Horror Weekly Episode #310 Back in December 2022, we thought it would be fun to watch an entire month of Christmas and Holiday themed horror movies. It was easy, and we had a lot of fun doing it. Then, this year, we wondered… could we do it again? Are there even that many Christmas-themed horror movies out there? Oh Yeah. That many and more.  So this will be the first of several weeks of nothing but holiday-themed horror for you. We’ll start off with 2022’s “Violent Night,” have some fun with “Slay Belles” from 2018, get all paranoid with “It Cuts Deep” from 2020, sleep through a 2019 anthology, “Deathcember,” and then go shopping in “While She Was Out” from 2008.  And, of course, we have five excellent short films for you. Not particularly holiday themed.   The latest issue of “Horror Monthly” is now on sale, and it’s our biggest issue yet, with 43 reviews plus a short story, this time by Brian.  Follow us at https://bsky.app/profile/horrorguys.bsky.social   Get all our reviews once a week: https://www.horr

Horror Weekly Episode #308 We’re back to our regular mix of new and old films, this time, starting off with a holiday special, “Terrifier 3” (2024).

Horror Weekly Issue #307 This week, we’ve mostly got new films plus one weird oldie. We’ll begin with “Black Cab,” a creepy ghost story. The indie anthology “Dating Horror Stories” warns us how things can go wrong in relationships. We’ll next move on to the silly “Carved,” which would have been a mood-setter if we’d watched it before Halloween. “Curse of the Sin Eater” made us wonder if we’d try taking the deal, and “The Funhouse” (1981) which was surprisingly forgettable.  The latest issue of “Horror Monthly” is now on sale, and it’s our biggest issue yet, with 54 reviews plus a short story by none other than Kevin himself.  Don’t miss out on our most recent members-only edition of the newsletter, just out!

Podcast 301 Just a quick reminder that we’ve launched our companion podcast/newsletter, “Classics Weekly,” a brand-new Podcast/Newsletter devoted to classic films. Our first episode, devoted to “Casablanca,” launched this week. It’ll all be very similar in format to Horror Weekly, but since it’s only one film each week, we can go more in-depth with trivia and commentary.

We’ll start out with a comedy, “eVil Sublet,” and then go with one that has no humor at all, “The Wait.” The three that follow are a mixed bag: the depressing “The Devil’s Bath,” the mental “Booger,” and the ridiculous “Population Purge.” We’ll follow these up with three short films.

Podcast 300 Three hundred episodes. Plus One MORE. When we first decided to do a podcast, we thought that one about Alfred Hitchcock's films would be fun. Partway through the second episode, we realized that he only made about 50 films, and we wanted to do something more ongoing. We decided to make more generically about horror films in general.  We chose well; with over 1700 films reviewed so far, there is no end in sight– they just keep making more horror films, and there are still plenty of oldies that we haven’t seen. There are so many new films coming out (especially this month and next) that we have to prioritize and choose among the new releases. There just aren’t enough days in the week for all the terror! But still… there are more things in the world than just horror. We’ve noticed that while watching our movies, we both really enjoyed the old movies a lot. I’ve even written books about them. We’ve decided that we like doing “Horror Weekly” so much that we want to branch out and do a more unlimited p
