It's January, so we're pulling out the horror crystal ball and looking ahead at what 2026 has in store. Friend of the Pod Gigi Leal (RoomforScream) joins us to go through a stacked list of upcoming horror movies and just… scream at each other like horror fans do.We get into things we're excited about, things we're nervous about, and things we're already overthinking way too much—covering titles like Evil Dead Burn from Sébastien Vaniček, Robert Eggers' Werwulf, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple directed by Nia DaCosta, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil, and more. No spoilers, no release date breakdowns, just gut reactions, hopes, fears, and a lot of speculation about what might actually hit.What feels promising? What could completely fall apart? And which movies are we already emotionally attached to despite knowing better?If you like looking ahead at upcoming horror, guessing wildly, and getting cautiously excited about movies we haven't seen yet, this one's for you sooo...COME HANG OUT!!!

So, what do I think was the very greatest horror movie that came out during 1983? Well, here we have the top 10. The worst 10. A slew of also rans. Plus some bangin' mates, a few Skeleton Crew gin shots and an 8+ hour running time.

We're starting 2026 the Mostly Horror way!! Talking horror with friends and arguing about what scared us the most.For our first episode of the new year, we're joined once again by Mike Scollins, writer for Late Night with Seth Meyers and a longtime friend of the show. Mike's been on with us plenty of times before, from general horror hangouts, to breaking down Scream 6, to helping us celebrate past Spook'em Scare'em Awards, and now he's back to do it again.This isn't a traditional awards show. There's no voting, no winners, and no attempt at consensus. It's just us looking back at the horror movies of 2025 and calling out what really stuck with us. The best deaths, the scariest moments, the most memorable monsters, standout international horror, and more. We don't always agree, and that's kind of the point.If you're catching up on what horror delivered in 2025, or you just want to hear three people who love the genre dig into what worked and what didn't, then this one's for you.So HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Make some of your resolutions to tell a friend about the show, watch more horror, and…COME HANG OUT!!!

Send us a textWelcome back to DMRWeapons is directed and written by Zach Cregger, and features a strong ensemble cast including Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Benedict Wong, and Amy Madigan. The film centers on a horrifying event — one night, an entire third-grade class disappears without a trace, leaving behind only a single child. As panic spreads through the community, suspicion falls on the teacher, and a grieving father, along with other adults, begin unraveling the mystery.Critically, Weapons has been very well received. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 93% “Tomatometer” score, reflecting broad acclaim for its atmosphere, acting, and the way it blends horror-mystery tropes. Financially, the film has been a major success: it grossed around US $268.3 million worldwide, far exceeding its modest production budget — making it one of 2025's most successful horror films.Be sure to grab your Audible 30 day free trial, link is in the show, you will help support DMR!Support the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

It's that time of year guys! Back from a long break here to bring you all things spooky...holiday style. Kicking off this festive month, we have tonight's episode which is Horror Movies with Christmas themes, not Christmas Horror movies. We have talked about many holiday horror films in past episodes, and we'll have one again this December, but this time, we wanted to talk about horror films set around the holidays. In non-horror terms, think more Batman Returns, less Home Alone: one is set at Christmas, the other is about Christmas. Tonight should be a fun one!

For some they're the stuff of nightmares, but many of us can't get enough of horror films. For Halloween, CrowdScience investigates the science of why we enjoy films that scare the living daylights out of us. CrowdScience listener Maria from Taiwan is one of those people who would rather avoid frightening films, yet her husband loves them and is always trying to get her to watch with him. She wants to know why people like her husband are so drawn to horror films. To try and find out, presenter Anand Jagatia travels to the Recreational Fear Lab in Aarhus, Denmark, which is dedicated to understanding why people frighten themselves for fun. He meets the research lab's directors Mathias Clasen and Marc Andersen who explain how horror and recreational fear could help us cope better with uncertainty, bond with those we are frightened beside, and perhaps even have some physical health benefits. They also take Anand to a haunted house, called Dystopia, which has used the Recreational Fear Lab's research to become as terrifying as possible. And we hear from horror film music composer, Mark Korven, who creates tension and fear using an invention he calls ‘the apprehension engine'. He speaks to BBC Naturebang's Becky Ripley who has been investigating sounds that scare us and their evolutionary origins.

This spooky season on Parallax Views, we venture behind the Iron Curtain with historian Alexander Herbert, author of Fear Before the Fall: Horror Films in the Late Soviet Union. Herbert uncovers a hidden world of Soviet horror cinema — films that reflected the fears, contradictions, and collapsing certainties of late socialism. We talk about Viy (1967), the first officially Soviet horror movie and a chilling adaptation of Nikolai Gogol's tale about a terrified seminarian forced to pray over a witch's corpse. From there, Herbert explores how later Soviet filmmakers created movies that were either horror or horror-adjacent. It's an exploration of a rather unexplored topic. It's a conversation about horror, history, and ideology — and how the Soviet Union's final decades produced some of the most fascinating and overlooked genre films ever made.

Your grandmother was right — you should sit up straight. Posture affects far more than your appearance. It influences your mood, productivity, and even how well you think. I begin this episode with surprising research showing how simply improving your posture can boost everything from confidence to cognitive performance. https://www.deseret.com/2023/10/24/23930242/dont-slouch-minding-your-posture-good-mental-health-productivity We often hear that creativity is the key to success — but is it really? Cultural historian Samuel Franklin says the cult of creativity might be one of the most overrated ideas in modern life. He's the author of The Cult of Creativity: A Surprisingly Recent History (https://amzn.to/3MiaJUC), and he reveals how our obsession with being “creative” is a relatively new concept — and why, in many cases, getting things done matters more than thinking outside the box. Why do we love to be scared? Every Halloween, millions of people pay good money to feel terror in the theater. Science writer Nina Nesseth, author of Nightmare Fuel: The Science of Horror Films (https://amzn.to/46Let9l), joins me to explore why horror movies captivate us, how they affect our brains, and why this much-maligned genre deserves a lot more respect than it gets. And finally — are daily showers really necessary? Many of us can't imagine skipping one, but dermatologists say too much cleanliness might actually backfire. I'll explain what the science says about how often you should shower — and what happens if you overdo it. http://health.howstuffworks.com/skin-care/daily/tips/daily-shower-skin1.htm PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Heavy Metal Music and Horror Films are a potent combination, so I am always surprised that heavy crossover isn't as a common as one could expect. Still a few movies have done it in different ways. On the newest episode of the Retroist Podcast, I want to talk about a movie that integrates it fully and completely, Trick or Treat. This movie didn't do great when it was first released back in 1986, but it has since gone on to have a cult status. I begin the episode by discussing seeing this movie with my friends. They had wholeheartedly embraced metal music, while I was more of a tourist at this point. So there most movie chats about it went mostly over my head. Still, I did find the movie enjoyable and even more so when it was available on VHS. It is my time of horror, a little weird, creepy, but the violence is toned-down. I then discuss the film itself. Talking about how it got made, who made it, the actors, music, cameos and much more. Trick or Treat is one of those movies that feels like it could only have been made when it was made. It takes all the fears parents had about heavy metal music, mixes them with teenage alienation, and turns it into a great horror story. The music and the fan culture of metal is as the center of the story, which was rare at the time. It is campy, but it has a surprising amount of heart, which is why it still stands out today.
