Frank and Squeaks break down a busy week in geek news before diving into two fresh reviews and a long chat with voice actor Eliah Mountjoy. We talk Netflix's Catan project, Stranger Things' finale heading to theaters, Blumhouse picking up Something Is Killing The Children, convention safety after the Emiru incident, and Halo landing on PlayStation. Reviews include Gen V Season 2 and It: Welcome to Derry Episode 1. Eliah then joins to talk Marvel Rivals, bringing Bucky Barnes to life, and the craft of voice acting. Timestamps and Topics 01:10 Question of the Week - Favorite box office flops that we love 04:42 Netflix developing Catan project 08:41 Stranger Things series finale will play in theaters 11:46 Blumhouse lands Something Is Killing The Children 15:04 Emiru incident at TwitchCon - convention safety and parasocial boundaries 24:10 Halo coming to PlayStation 28:51 Console wars timeline and what "the end" looks like 38:19 Quick sponsor shout for Smurfs Blu-ray 38:38 Review - Gen V Season 2 53:20 Review - It: Welcome to Derry Episode 1 01:08:10 Interview - Eliah Mountjoy on Marvel Rivals and voicing Winter Soldier Key Takeaways Netflix is expanding board game adaptations with Catan and exploring series or film options. Stranger Things is treating its finale like an event by putting it on the big screen. Blumhouse grabbing Something Is Killing The Children shows horror's momentum in both live action and adult animation. The Emiru assault at TwitchCon highlights the need for tighter security and better creator safety guidelines. Halo on PlayStation feels like the final shot in the console wars and a nod to platform-agnostic futures. Gen V Season 2 keeps The Boys universe sharp with character-first chaos. It: Welcome to Derry starts strong with mood and mystery, even if the spectacle is still ramping up. Eliah Mountjoy frames Bucky as a survivor balancing light and dark, focusing on grounded choices over super-heroics. Quotes "Hook is the box office flop I will defend to my last breath." "Stranger Things going to theaters is a victory lap and a thank you to fans." "It feels like the end of the console wars." "Acting is reacting." "Bucky has existed in both worlds, good and bad, and he's trying to live with that." "Directing for VO is finding the truth in the take, not chasing a line read."

Forty years. Thirteen films. One masked killer who just won't die.Today, we're zeroing in on the final chapter of the Halloween saga — the last seven films that tried to reimagine, reboot, and finally end the story of Michael Myers. From the sleek nostalgia of H20, to the gritty chaos of Rob Zombie's vision, and the recent Blumhouse trilogy that brought Laurie Strode back for one last showdown. We're slicing through what worked, what didn't, and why the Shape still casts such a long shadow over modern horror.So grab your pumpkin spice, lock your doors, and cue the Carpenter score, because we're diving deep into the evolution, the chaos, and the legacy of Halloween's final seven acts.Be sure to subscribe on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and leave a review, or email us at unitedstatesofmurder@gmail.comFollow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

Wrapping up a trilogy is always a tough pumpkin to carve -- a lesson director David Gordon Green learned with Halloween Ends, the climax of his otherwise financially successful Blumhouse "legacy" series that began with 2018's Halloween and carried through with 2021's Halloween Kills. Despite strong production values and the return of Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, the film met with fan backlash and muted box office returns, due in part to the shift in focus from Michael Myers to a new slasher character, the unpopular Corey. But is it really as bad as all that? Join superfans Sebastian and Matt Anderson as they slash it out once and for all to determine if this is a worthy end to the franchise. Trick or treat, motherf**cker!

Forty years after John Carpenter's legendary 1978 classic, Halloween (2018) brings Michael Myers back to Haddonfield in a terrifying reboot/sequel from director David Gordon Green (The Exorcist: Believer, Pineapple Express) and Blumhouse Productions.

In an interview with Elle, promoting her upcoming appearance in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Goth shared only that she is still attached to the film and commented that “It's for the best that it's taken the time it has. They want to do it right.” This is in line with Kevin Feige's comments this summer that the film is still moving forward.In an interview with the AP this week, Adam Driver dropped some major information about the Ben Solo movie in Star Wars that never was. Driver explained that Lucasfilm was interested in continuing his character's story in a film that had a script written by Steven Soderbergh.

Class is back in session, and the phone won't stop ringing...so naturally, Mista Malave and Sabrina Ace decided to answer it. This week, your unqualified educators of evil dive headfirst into The Black Phone 2, Blumhouse's latest reminder that sometimes it's better to let unknown numbers go to voicemail. The Grabber's back with a more “hands-on” curriculum, Ethan Hawke's giving full Freddy Krueger exchange-student energy, and somehow Finney's too busy training dragons to show up for class, so the spotlight falls on Gwen, the only one still doing the homework. We're talking missing kills, overactive grabbers, and Blumhouse's undying love for milking sequels until the audience develops Stockholm Syndrome. So grab your rotary phone, ignore the static, and let's see if this call is worth answering…

Mike White sits down with journalist and author Clark Collis to talk about his latest deep dive into the world of fear and fascination, Screaming and Conjuring: The Rise of Modern Horror Franchises. Collis explores how films like The Conjuring, Insidious, and Paranormal Activity revived mainstream horror, spawned cinematic universes, and redefined the genre for a new generation. From haunted houses to found footage, Collis traces the eerie evolution of studio horror from the 2000s onward—where box office booms meet demonic possessions, and clever marketing becomes part of the scare.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Send us a textIt's Halloween time so what better movie to talk about than the new horror sequel Black Phone 2.

This week's episode takes a sharp turn into the shadows as we welcome back actor Josh Warren, who joins us fresh off his appearance in Shudder's new reality competition series “Guts and Glory,” produced by none other than Greg Nicotero of The Walking Dead fame. Josh shares what it's like to be on the blood-soaked set (at least as much as his NDA allows), and gives us a peek behind the curtain of this wild new horror challenge. Then, we go full slasher mode as the gang dives headfirst into every Halloween movie in the Michael Myers franchise — all 13 of them. From Carpenter's classic to Rob Zombie's gritty remakes to the recent Blumhouse trilogy, we rank, debate, and resurrect decades of Haddonfield mayhem. It's a killer combo of horror nostalgia, behind-the-scenes talk, and pop-culture carnage that only Radio Labyrinth could deliver.

The chilling atmosphere and haunting visuals deliver that classic Blumhouse terror, with the return of The Grabber —literally and figuratively. While it doesn't completely recapture the mystery of the original, it is very similar to another popular horror classic. It adds a cold, supernatural edge. A mix of psychological horror and ghostly vengeance, The Black Phone 2 is a very capable follow-up to the original. #TheBlackPhone2 #MovieReview #HorrorMovies #Blumhouse #TheGrabberReturns #DeadIsJustAWord #HorrorCommunity #ScaryMovies
