We are a couple that does a definitive rank of horror movies. We rank any film that keeps you up at night. From the kills and effects to the plot and characters, we rank everything that makes a movie horrifying.

In order to thank you all for our week off, we've released a bonus episode! It contains questions about our personal preferences about horror, some situational horror scenarios, and an interesting improv session. Thank you all for being so supportive!
Everybody likes candy, right? Well, you may be able to avoid cavities with toothpaste, but nothing can protect you from a mad man with a hook. This week, we cover the dreaded Candyman. Are you daring enough to utter his name five times and become his victim? Did we unknowingly do just that in this episode? Tune in to find out.
Just letting everyone know why we aren't uploading this week. Thanks for understanding and we will see you next week!
Where's me gold?! This week, we discuss the Leprechaun series. While these movies are definitely on the C tier, they still have a certain weird, goofy charm. Come with us as we go hunting for the leprechaun's gold. Don't touch it, though...
We all go a little mad sometimes... This week, our second one-offs episode features the original Psycho, The Hills Have Eyes, and Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. A first for Kill For Your Thoughts, Sweeney Todd is a horror themed musical. Tune in to hear the discussion, the music, and the screams...
Sh Sh Sh, Ah Ah Ah... This week, we take a vacation to Camp Crystal Lake and visit the notorious Jason Voorhees. While these movies certainly tanked in our ratings, they still are recognized as classics of the horror genre. Tune in, put on your camp counselor uniform, and never leave the children unattended.
Can you cheat death? This week, we discuss the Final Destination series and explore all sorts of gruesome ways to die. This is a rare series where the most recent film of the franchise is the most enjoyable to watch. Tune in and learn how to cheat death, or at least gain a little extra time...
Hiya, Georgie! This week, come home to Derry and visit your old pal Pennywise. The It trilogy is one of the very few series where all the movies are enjoyable, so this was a fun episode to prepare for! Tune in, grab your paper boats, and watch out for those deadlights. Beware, it's time to float...
Whatcha gonna do with those pies, boys? This week, we cover three movies in our first one off episode. Some movies are simply too good (or too bad) to get a sequel, so they stand on their own. Killer Klowns, The Thing, and The Banana Splits are all making their appearance. Tune in to hear us rate these "giants" of the horror genre.
Where'd you get those peepers? This week, we review a cult classic with his own catchy theme song. While the sequels are lack-luster, to say the least, the original gives plenty of chills that make you fear the Creeper and his body wagon with the BEATNGU license plate. Stay vigilant, the 23rd Spring is here. If you hear that song, you'd better run.
We want to play a game. This week, John Kramer (Jigsaw) is here to teach us about how to value our lives. What started as a low budget college film blossomed into eight full movies that are gory and unforgettable. Let's play the game and live or die. Tune in to hear Jigsaw's views on humans and how they waste their precious time instead of valuing what they have. Be careful or you'll get into a reverse bear trap, and believe me, it's not pretty.
Do you like scary movies? What's your favorite scary movie? If you answer that question with Scream, then this is the episode for you! This week we unmask the Ghostface killer and take a critical look at one of the most important horror movies of all time, Wes Craven's Scream. Scream revitalized horror movies that had become bland and boring. Many of the fantastic horror films we know today owe their existence to Scream. So join us as we remember the rules of horror movies and hope to survive the Woodsboro Massacre!
This week we encounter a doll hell bent on destruction. He has haunted children and adult's dreams for decades. His name is Chucky, and he has come to play. From his horrifying origins to his comedic side and back again, we take on the entire franchise. Let's hope we do this respectfully because the last thing we want to do is f*ck with the Chuck. Tune in and see that unlike the title, when Chucky wants you, it's far from Child's Play.
1, 2, Freddy's coming for you... this week, your worst nightmares come to life as we discuss Freddy Krueger. The original A Nightmare on Elm Street ranks at the top of our entire list of horror movies. Wes Craven developed a unique, terrifying concept into one of the cult classics of the horror genre. Those finger-knife gloves mean business. Tune in and join us on our adventure down Elm Street. Let's hope we don't fall asleep...
This week, Michael Myers is the star of the show. From its humble origins in 1978 to more promised films in the future, the franchise has become a staple in the horror diet. Tune in to hear our ranks and opinions of all 11 films in the series. As always, we'd kill for your thoughts, so leave a comment or send us an email to let us know your views. Remember to share this podcast with fellow horror fanatics or you might become Michael's next victim... Thank you!
