If you want to journey into the world of horror films and books, BUT journey into them through the eyes of an adorable 9 year old girl and her very irresponsible father, look no further than Katy From The Crypt.
We're trying to keep these gators down with this week's review of Crawl! Our 2019 disaster flick has it all, gators, competitive swimmers, hurricanes, gators, Billy Pepper, cute dogs, more gators, and somehow we're able to still able talk about emu's, Donald Trump action movies, and Irish psychopaths. Wow! This episode has it all!
Our final week of Studio Ghibli reviews goes out with a bang as we review My Neighbor Totoro, the darling tale of two isolated girls in post-war Japan who suffer from delusions of a giant cat-bunny with magical powers. I don't have any “funny” questions for this post. It's late. Go sleepy….Enjoy!
Our third Studio Ghibli review is flying high with Kiki's Delivery Service, a heartwarming tale about a teenage witch who invents Amazon in the 1950s. With the voice talent of the late, great Phil Hartman, this story bums us out as much as it delights. Does Kiki deliver the goods? Can Katy Bug learn to … Continue reading Episode 62-Kiki's Delivery Service →
After a brief detour, we're heading back to Japan with some more Studio Ghibli goodness! Princess Mononoke is our flick of the week and we've got to marvel at the lack of any Princess Mononoke. Is she the main character or not? How many arms can one arrow shoot off? And why is our dog … Continue reading Episode 61-Princess Mononoke →
We're taking a break from our Studio Ghibli reviews to check out the new addition to the Conjuringverse, The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It. How fares the 3rd installment to Ed and Lorraine Warren's supernatural adventures? Was this couple doing God's work or a total fraud? Did Katy say “unresponsible” or “irresponsible”? … Continue reading Episode 60-The Conjuring 3 →
We’re showing love this week to our favorite animated director, Hayao Miyazaki. Sure, he’s not exactly known for his slasher films, but it’s our show and we wanted an excuse to watch Spirited Away. It was the highest-grossing film in Japan for 20 years for a reason. Why? Listen to our show to find out!
It’s our final May the 4th Movie in a Franchise and this week we’re going back, waaaaaay back 65 million years to Jurassic World! Okay, maybe you don’t consider this flick “horror”, but if you were being chased by giant, man-eating dinosaurs, I bet you would be horrified, fair? Check us out on Instagram!
We’re bone-deep into May the 4th Movie of a Franchise with Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. A first of the show, neither Katy nor Nik has seen this movie! Will it blow their minds? Is it a total dud? Do they spend the first 10 minutes praising the brilliance of Hayao Miyazaki? You … Continue reading Episode 57-Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers →

Don’t fall asleep! This week we’re having A Nightmare On Elm Street. Does this classic 80’s slasher flick deliver the goods? How many hairs can Katy Bug pull out of her mouth? Can Nik read his own handwriting? NOTE: when writing notes for a podcast, always make sure you can actually read your notes!
Grab your umbrella because we’re reviewing Fear of Rain. Does this thriller about mental illness deliver the goods or exploit a serious condition? Does Katy Bug know who Harrison Ford is? Does the cat ever stop biting my knee? All of these questions are answered in this week’s episode! And we promise to never record … Continue reading Episode 48-Fear of Rain →
