    We're back! Holiday break is finally over, and we have a new episode just in time for Bong Joon Ho's HISTORIC Oscar win. Is "Parasite" a horror movie? Depends on how you feel about rich people, I guess.  Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    Don’t “sleep” on this one, listeners-or-nots! Stephen King’s novel-turned-movie “Doctor Sleep” was a WINNER in both Angie AND Kelsey’s book(s). When you combine Ewan McGregor with some telepathy and old hotels, you have a great, spooky, heartfelt movie (with special thanks to the director, Mike Flanagan). Are you a kid who has special powers? Then WATCH OUT for Rose the Hat and listen to this episode to learn how to defeat her! Or just listen so you can have a quick lil summary of an amazing Stephen King adaptation. It might not be like the book really at all, but it sure is great.   Thanks for listening! Or not!

    Listen (or not), we know it's not Halloween anymore. Life happens, time flies, all that jazz. But if you still want to hear about Jamie Lee Curtis' debut movie with Michael Myers (not THAT Michael Myers), then listen in even if it is post-Halloween. Do do do do (that's us singing the theme). Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    25 - Rosemary's Baby

    **Little bit of an audio issue in this and it got reposted -- sorry!** WHOA BABY, this week's episode is all about Mia Farrow's masterpiece (we refuse to acknowledge the RP name) "Rosemary's Baby." Angie had never seen it before, but MAN, what a treat. Listen in to hear about how one woman's weirdo neighbors gaslit her into thinking she was insane and definitely not living next door to a satanic cult! Kind of typical! Is Rosemary insane, tho? Maybe. Is the dad from "Beethoven" in this movie? Yes! Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    Hi! Were you that girl in high school that everyone made fun of and threw tampons at you when you got your period in the gym shower? Then this movie's for YOU! Angie's future mother-in-law showed "Carrie" to her daughter as as lesson to "never be mean to people because you never know what could happen" and you know, we think she was right. No bullying, because you never know if someone has telekinesis and can start fires with her mind! Life lesson #451. Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    Who wants a summary of the Scary(iest) Stories to Tell in the Dark? If you're like Angie, you read those books COVER TO COVER and even hid them under your bed because you were afraid the terrifying illustrations might come to life in the night, right? No, just her? Okay. Listen to see how terribly they transformed this PA town to the (sort of) 1960s and how they interpreted these short stories into something, well, less of a collection of short stories. Guillermo del Toro doesn't disappoint! (Well, maybe it's like 10% disappointing) Yay for quick summaries of horror movies! Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    Hello! We all know Mel Gibson is terrible, but honestly, let's just forget that for a good hour and hear about how everything's connected in M. Night Shyamalan's "Signs." It's a great movie and Angie might cry while retelling the story of Joaquin Phoenix, MG, Abigail Breslin, and Rory Culkin + aliens. Or are they aliens? (They're aliens.) Swing away, Merrill.

    Hello, Clarice! That’s a line from this week’s movie, “The Silence of the Lambs” - which you most likely won’t learn from listening to this episode, so that’s *bonus content*. Have you wondered why everyone thinks this is the best movie ever? You should really just go watch it to hear all the goods about Hannibal Lector, Buffalo Bill, and Clarice Starling - but if you can’t watch, listen!   Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

    We've all heard the superstition. WATCH YOUR BACKS, FRIDAY THE 13TH episode is here! If Angie was smart, she would've waited to do this movie on the actual Friday the 13th that is happening in September, but alas, you're getting it in August. On the 15th. So. You're welcome. Are you interested in campy (literally and figuratively) horror? Then this is the episode for you! Listen in to hear about Kevin Bacon's acting debut (maybe?) and get a synopsis of the first movie in a franchise that has grossed a grotesque amount of money. Thanks for listening! (Or not!)

Listen in (or not) to hear Angie finally tell Kelsey about the brilliantly sound-edited movie about monsters who land on Earth in 2020 from a meteor and prey upon people who are noisy. (I know some coworkers who could use a little of this fear in their lives, amirite?) Anyway, John Krasinski and Emily Blunt are amazing and they're the most redeeming things in this movie.
