Jared and Matt discuss the first film to feature Jason Voorhees as the killer! Still no hockey mask, though. We will have to wait for part three!
In his fifth film, Godzilla meets his greatest foe: Ghidorah! He will need to team up with Rodan and Mothra if he wants to save the Earth from this giant extraterrestrial dragon!
The title tells you pretty much everything you need to know! We had a lot of fun talking about this wildly over-the-top film.
There is something strange going on at the local funeral home and 13 year old Jody knows the very tall and sinister mortician is behind it. Listen in as we discuss this surreal Don Coscarelli classic!
By 2016, the zombie genre was worn out. So when a film that seemed to be "Zombies On a Train" came out, I didn't rush to see it. Fortunately, this film is a lot more than that!
When Mothra's egg washes up on the beach, it is threatened by greedy businessmen...and Godzilla!
When sleazy TV producer Max Renn (James Woods) discovers an underground broadcast of tv show containing nothing but violence and torture, he thinks it will be perfect for his market. But as he tries to locate the origin of the signal, Max falls into a surreal nightmare world of conspiracy.
In this episode, Jared talks with guest Matt about their shared love for the Friday the 13th film and the franchise it started.
Rabid Weasel Podcast Episode 40: The Fog (1980) by Justin Bullock
Malignant is directed by James Wan, who also brought us films like Saw and The Conjuring. It is the story of a woman who begins having visions of real murders and is forced to confront her past. That's actually a pretty terrible summary, but to say much more would spoil a wild story!
Despite being Godzilla's second film and the first time he fought another giant monster, this sequel is often overlooked. Does it deserve more recognition?
While hosting a New Year's countdown show, Blaze gets a phone call from a man with a disguised voice who says he is going to commit murder. As the New Year arrives in each time zone across America, he changes into a new disguise and commits another murder, calling Blaze each time to torment her live on air. As the killer works his way closer to her, will the police be able to catch him in time?
This holiday season we are discussing one of the most important and respected Christmas horror movies. It is arguably the first slasher movie and certainly one of the most influential examples of that genre.
Happy Thanksgiving! We are celebrating by watching this bizarrely awful movie about a man who falls in with a group of hippies, does drugs, eats turkey meat that has been experimented on and turns into a killer turkey monster!
Happy Halloween! Do you remember the silly things that scared you as a child? Do you remember the first movie or show that frightened you? Maybe you saw or heard something that you were too young for? We will discuss all those memories and more!
For people who grew up with Ernest, this movie may be considered a minor Halloween classic. But what if this is your first Ernest movie and you are seeing it as an adult?
For our third Halloween episode this October, we are discussing the story of Donnie Darko, a teenage boy who receives a warning from a man in a creepy bunny outfit that the world is going to end in 28 days.
Listeners of a certain age may have nostalgic memories of this film. Others may be confused at our inclusion of a Disney Channel movie in our Halloween series. Try to put yourself back into the mindset of a child during the Halloween season and give this film a try.
For our first episode of this October Halloween themed series, we are discussing House of 1000 Corpses! This feature length film debut of heavy metal musician Rob Zombie was loved by many horror fans but dismissed as "torture porn" by many others. It was one of the first in a new wave of extremism in the genre and is still divisive among fans today. Listen in to hear our thoughts and then give us yours!
What happens when one of the greatest ever filmmakers creates one of the most controversial movies of all time? This is a film you won't forget anytime soon.
Before the HBO Tv Series and before George Romero's Creepshow, Amicus Productions made this anthology adaptation of five stories from the classic 1950's EC horror comics. Join us as we review each segment, pick our favorites and compare the stories to source material!
The Happy Mean. The Middle Path. Balancing across extremes.

Godzilla meets...The Blair Witch Project? Before the found footage subgenre was completely overdone, it seemed like an interesting idea. Did this new take on the giant monster loose in the city story inspire awe and terror, or just motion sickness?

When this Hollywood remake of a Japanese ghost story was released, it was a phenomenon. Twenty years later, we take a look back to see if the reaction was justified. Note: Due to some internet issues, you may hear a few moments of audio issues. Sorry about that. Remember, we are recording from opposite sides of the planet!

"The Power Games basically goes like this: everyone acts fully selfish, and whenever there's a conflict, whoever has the power to get their way, gets their way. Or, more succinctly: Everyone can do whatever they want, if they have the power to pull it off. There are no principles in the Power Games—only the cudgel. And whoever holds it makes the rules."
