Welcome to The Cherry Picker: the horror movie podcast where we like to kill people... but not really. Hosted by Zack Cherry and Eddie. Each week we discuss a new horror film / franchise / or topic, and finish the episode off with The Cherry Picker, an interactive poll where we choose two characters from the preceding content who we believe were/are the most deserving of their horror movie deaths (whether they received one or not). You will then have the opportunity to vote.
The Cherry Picker podcast is a delightful addition to the horror genre podcast scene. I first discovered this show through the Zach Cherry YouTube channel, which is also fantastic for anyone who enjoys rankings, lists, and other unique horror-related content. The podcast strikes the perfect balance between lighthearted humor and critical review, making it an enjoyable listen for both casual fans and hardcore horror enthusiasts.
One of the best aspects of The Cherry Picker podcast is the chemistry between hosts Zach and Eddie. They have a natural rapport that makes it feel like you're sitting down with friends to discuss your favorite horror movies. Their knowledge of the genre is impressive, and they bring that expertise to each episode as they delve into different films. Whether they're analyzing character arcs or dissecting the cinematography, Zach and Eddie provide insightful commentary that adds depth to their discussions.
Another highlight of this podcast is the cherry picker concept, which is introduced at the end of each episode. This segment allows Zach and Eddie to pick their favorite moments or elements from the film they've discussed. It's a fun way to wrap up each episode and gives listeners a chance to hear what stood out most to them. The cherry picker concept adds an extra layer of engagement to the show and keeps listeners eagerly anticipating what will be chosen next.
While there aren't many negative aspects to this podcast, one potential drawback is that it may not appeal to those who are not already fans of horror movies. The hosts dive deep into specific horror films, providing in-depth analysis that might not resonate with listeners who are unfamiliar with or uninterested in the genre. However, for horror fans, this podcast is a treasure trove of fascinating discussions and recommendations.
In conclusion, The Cherry Picker podcast is a must-listen for any fan of horror films. With its engaging hosts, knowledgeable insights, and entertaining cherry picker concept, it provides an enjoyable experience from start to finish. Whether you're looking for in-depth analysis or just want to hear a fun conversation about your favorite scary movies, this podcast delivers. Give it a listen and join Zach and Eddie on their thrilling journey through the world of horror cinema.
