Rising from a century-old grave comes the Count to wreak vengeance, gather his followers, and… party with haughty English mods? Well, not exactly. But Matt and Jason will be haunting the swingin’ streets of London as they comment upon Hammer Film’s attempt to be hip, also known as Dracula A.D. 1972. M&J will be rapping about hot chicks, groovy movie facts, far out personal trips, and then mellowing out with some post-movie chat and listener e-mail. So, open up a vein and hang with some righteous horror cats. Can you dig it?

Like tossing a big ol’ bucket of pig’s blood in your face, we bring you our analysis on the 1976 telekinetic shocker, Carrie. We hoist our brews to late menstruation, shower scenes, outsider teen revenge, and the lip-glossed bitch goddess that is Nancy Allen. Okay, maybe that last part is just Matt talking, but do listen in and get all of the inside scoop on this highest moment in the directorial career of Brian De Palma. Post-movie chat covers the work of Stephen King and Clive Barker, as well as listener mail and some musings on the next movie choice. Turn on, tune in, plug it up!

Here are two men with impure hearts, who never say their prayers at night,
But become wolves when the podcast starts, and the beer is chilled just right.

Yes, this is our completely hokey segue to the description of our commentary on the 1941 masterpiece of lycanthropic study known as The Wolf Man. Take a journey to the shadowy borderlands of man’s animal nature, or simply enjoy two drinking guys chatting up their love for classic horror. You have a choice, unlike that poor Larry Talbot. After the feature, we’ll have our post-movie talk and maybe say some other clever things. AHHH-OOH!

Time to put on your costumes, stuff your faces full of candy corn, and listen to our creepy commentary for the 1982 Myers-less third entry in a certain famous horror franchise — Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Accept the numbing earworm of the Silver Shamrock commercial jingle as we bring you all of the bizarre, Celtic occultness of one man’s mission to do something really horrible to children via the tapped power of an ancient ritual site of historical note… and computer chips… and rubber masks.

Sound the alarms! Call the National Guard! Break out the bug spray! Because your hunky hosts do battle with giant irradiated ants in this episode, commenting on the 1954 science fiction / horror bug movie, Them! These aren’t the kind of ants that mildly spoil a Sunday picnic but, rather, enormous insects which wreak havoc on a small desert community. After the movie, stay tuned for more movie chat and listener mail.

Get out your chainsaws and sewing kits as your attractively blood-drenched hosts bring you the 1982 slasher gorefest, Pieces. Will you cringe more over the sheer carnage of insane murder or from all of the bad acting, cheesy music, and inept dubbing? Perhaps, Jason’s sniffling or Matt’s college bimbo imitation will do it for you. In any case, you’re bound (and gagged) to have a good time.
