This week we're diving into The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, the sequel that took everything you thought you knew about the original and threw it into a blender.

The Hallow (2015), The Ritual (2017), and Antlers (2021) Cryptids occupy a couple of different categories in modern life. One of them is fun, if a bit kitschy and silly: think concrete bigfoot statues sitting in whimsical gardens or funny little Mothman plaques hanging on the wall. But another is truly terrifying, buried down deep below the surface of our culture and our geography, a place where most people refuse to even touch the soil, much less dig. On this episode, we are going to dig deeply into those terrifying cryptid myths and uncover some wonderful horror films. Because in the last decade or so, a handful of filmmakers have chosen to put spade to soil and go deeply into that taboo territory and yielded some wonderfully horrific results. Films mentioned in this episode: Antlers (2021), The Blair Witch Project (1999), Bugonia (2025), Cocaine Bear (2023), District 9 (2009), Frankenstein (2025), The Hallow (2015), Hellraiser (2022), The Irishman (2019), The Mothman Prophecies (2002), The Nun (2018), The Omen (1976), The Ritual (2017), Scars of Dracula (1970), Shaun of the Dead (2004), The Signal (2007), Southbound (2015), Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), Weapons (2025), Whistle (2025)

The Fork In Your Ear Ep#218 Jimonthy Crickets! - Podcast Show Notes & Summery 8-1-26 Quick Summary Tim and Nate open with the usual technical chaos—Nate's ancient camera older than his kids, USB hub murders, Windows being Windows, and a new meshy chair—before Tim scrapes himself off the floor with minimal coffee. The big gaming bombshell is Nintendo snagging a FromSoftware exclusive (Dustbloods) led by Miyazaki himself: Bloodborne-vibes, industrial revolution setting, up to eight-player PvE, and Tim is currently in the closed NDA network test. Microsoft brings four original Xbox classics to PC (Fusion Frenzy, Crimson Skies, Conker's Live and Reloaded), sparking preservation vs. "just sell it again" debate. Nate digs into the new Halo campaign on PC while Tim's wrist is still sidelining him. Entertainment covers Spider-Man: Brand New Day (Tim is all-in), American Psycho after a four-and-a-half-hour serial-killer museum visit, and the couple literally dodging the Bite of Seattle shooting by having a fight and going home. Life wraps with raccoon babies, the local "Jimmathy" meme, and Nate's wife getting back on two wheels with a nearly-new 2025 Triumph Speed Twin 900. Classic Fork energy from start to duck-call finish. Detailed Show Notes

Hey kid, there’s a spider in your bed! From Kingdom of the Spiders (1977) We’re going back to horror history class with Episode 212: Slashers Come of Age and Horror Finds Religion 1975-1979. Seven years ago, in the early days of the Scariest Things, we did some horror history, diving into some of the more obscure titles that you may not be aware of. We stopped at the early seventies, and then went on a very long hiatus. But now we are back with some (maybe) forgotten gems from 1975 to 1979. Friend of the podcast Ian Parker joins Eric and Mike in this deep dive. It took a while, but we are back to our chronology of horror movies. We have picked up the baton and are moving our movie history lessons forward. The seventies were a turbulent period in history. The Hayes Code, now dead and defeated, is no longer. The early seventies started playing around in the margins with movies that pushed the boundaries of what was possible. The advent of the massive summer blockbuster began to separate movies into big-budget and indie-budget films, and horror was part of that trend. Jaws (1975) and The Exorcist (1972) proved that with the right director, scary movies could bring in big money and be legitimate critical darlings as well. The doors opened for studios to pour big money into movies that would become The Omen, Alien, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and Carrie, landmark movies all. Big-name actors with great pedigrees were coaxed into performing in big studio horror projects. Gregory Peck did The Omen. Faye Dunaway at the height of her career did The Eyes of Laura Mars. It wouldn’t be long before Jack Nicholson got cast in The Shining (1980), but we’ll get to that one later. Having said all that, the studios weren’t quite all-in yet. There were a few pet projects out there. But the domain of the horror movie was still in the dilapidated old downtown movie houses and drive-in theaters. You couldn’t yet rent movies for home viewing. If you wanted to go see independent horror movies, you had to be willing to get down and dirty. The Cineplex wasn’t yet ready for showing off the gory delicacies that were being cooked up in the era when the boundaries between R and X hadn’t been settled yet. Slasher Movies Come of Age Horror never forgot its roots. You could still make a low-budget movie, with no-name actors, scare some teenagers, and turn a profit. But a guy in a rubber suit wasn’t going to cut it anymore. Real explicit violence and raw visceral horror are now how to make a memorable mark. Following in the footsteps of Black Christmas (1972), Last House on the Left (1972), and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), the slasher film was going to find the sweet spot of low budget and mass appeal. Enter Halloween (1978). Stabbing and spooking were now moving into the suburbs. On a budget of $325,000, Halloween would go on to earn $47,160,000. On a budget of $325,000, Halloween would go on to earn $47,160,000. Hollywood noticed. The impact of Halloween would be felt primarily in the early eighties, but a few filmmakers picked up on the trend early. The slasher films influenced directly in the wake of Halloween include: Don’t Go Into the House (1979), Silent Scream (1979), Tourist Trap (1979), Driller Killer (1979), Prom Night (1980), Maniac (1980), Friday the 13th (1980), Don’t Go into the Woods (1981), Madman (1981), Happy Birthday to Me (1981), My Bloody Valentine (1981), The Burning (1981), The House on Sorority Row (1982), and The Slumber Party Massacre (1982). All of these films featured a masked killer (usually) and some sort of stabbing weapon (usually), and oblivious teen victims (usually), with sexual activity usually as part of the equation (usually)… and a final girl (usually). That’s the modern slasher template. It didn’t take long for filmmakers to figure out the formula. Our great directors who would lead horror for the next twenty years were in place. John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, and Wes Craven had their knives out and were ready to dominate the field. This genre still felt fresh. The sequels had yet to take control of the industry, and the concept felt raw and scary. This trend would find its killer’s stride in the 80’s, but this is when the slasher movie came out of the shadows. Horror Gets Really Weird, and Discovers God While the sixties still had a safety belt on, and the eighties went for the reliable thrills, the seventies was a period that allowed directors to stretch out their ideas. The early seventies also contributed a number of strange films, but it is hard to match the back half of the seventies with the likes of The Manitou (1976), Phantasm (1979), Hausu (1977), and Eraserhead (1977), which brought wildly original concepts to the table. Religion was a big thing too. Conventionally, there were movies like The Omen and The Exorcist that were, while very scary, using traditional good-and-evil concepts. This era also had a more counter-cultural and artistic interpretation of holy horror. God Told Me To (1976) and The Visitor (1979) were gonzo strange concepts that never found an audience, but were challenging with their takes of what celestial beings might be. What is Jesus, really? For that matter, what is God? An alien? Perhaps. Truly strange, blasphemous stuff. Perhaps it was all the hallucinogens that were popular of the era. Cosmic horror found truth in a far-out metaphysical moment. It wouldn’t take long for the politicians and the morality police to put an end to such wild concepts. But in truth, the conservative backlash was waiting in the next decade. In the seventies, the liberal notions of acceptable content had plenty of room. That would be coming to an end soon, especially when movies could come home on cable TV and VHS.

Send us Fan MailEps.4 S3 Faith, Free Speech, and the Cost of Speaking TruthThe hosts draw powerful parallels between Kirk's assassination and historical political murders, noting how figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy met similar fates for speaking truths that challenged the status quo. They examine how mainstream media has selectively quoted Kirk to vilify him while ignoring the nuance of his positions, including his refusal to accept funding offers from political powers.Eps 5 S3 Brothers ReflectThe conversation weaves through personal reflections on loss, with powerful memories of their parents' passings and how those experiences transformed their emotional landscape. "My emotions are different after our parents passed away," one brother admits, highlighting how profound loss reshapes our perspectives on life. Their planned visit to their grandmother takes on special significance as they acknowledge it may be "unfortunately for the last time," while still hoping for more time together.Eps 6 S3 Spiritual Warfare in a Divided WorldThroughout our conversation runs an undercurrent of spiritual warfare—the sense that today's events reflect not just political or cultural struggles but a deeper conflict between good and evil. Eps.7 S3 A Conservative TalkFrom there, we widen the lens and tackle the mess of the moment: a grim Texas headline, claims of police stand‑downs, and the way leadership and media shape what we fear and what we ignore. We argue about the government shutdown, funding fights, and how outrage becomes a script. Then we crash straight into culture wars with a spicy take on the Super Bowl halftime debate and the Bad Bunny backlash—who gets the biggest stage, who decides, and why the choice feels bigger than music.Eps.8 S3 Everything Is Bad NewsEd Gein's crimes shaped Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Silence of the Lambs, and talk about what the series gets right: the psychology, the casting, and the uneasy line between truth and myth.Eps.35 S3Saturday Night FeverA bad day of Uber driving, tips, and not wasting gas • Banking fraud scare, cancelling a card too fast, and getting stuck at Walmart checkout • Claims of political corruption, investigations that go nowhere, and distrust in accountability Eps 37 S3 A Hot Summer Talk, Work and Media ScandalsJoe buys two lottery tickets and if he wins, he will buy a house for Thee Gooch, Sis, Remo and pay for being in the show and partial for the family, and Thee Gooch will built his own houseEps 38 S3 WIFI Technical Difficulties And Media Thee Gooch's having trouble login in the showJoe describing Thee Gooch audio dropping Thee Gooch is getting annoyed with his Wi-Fi Thee Gooch notifies Joe that he wont be on the podcast next weekJoe explains he was tired from work, he ate and drank 3 beers he fell asleep and threw up while he was sleeping and woke up choking and couldn't breathe and was coughing.Thee Gooch explains why are you eating while you go to sleep, there's people that die from that cause.Support our podcastTip us : http://paypal.me/theetalkerspodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/theetalkerspodTip us: https://buymeacoffee.com/theetalkers4uTip us : https://cash.app/$TheeTalkers

A headless body hung in a Wisconsin barn, strung up like a deer carcass. That was what police found when the Ed Gein case broke open on the first day of hunting season in 1957, and it was only the beginning of what waited inside his farmhouse. This is the true story of Ed Gein, the quiet, polite handyman from Plainfield, Wisconsin, who became known as the Butcher of Plainfield and inspired some of the most terrifying characters in film history. We trace how a domineering, deeply religious mother named Augusta shaped a lonely boy who never broke free, and how that obsession curdled into something monstrous after her death. You'll hear what really happened to shopkeeper Bernice Warden and tavern owner Mary Hogan, what investigators discovered among the rubbish and rot inside his home, and the detail most people get wrong: Gein only ever confirmed two murders. The rest of his grim collection, he said, came from graves he had robbed. We also untangle how one man's life fed three wildly different films; Psycho, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and  The Silence of the Lambs, and ask the uncomfortable question of how much sympathy a story like this can hold. A true crime story about isolation, control and the real horror behind Hollywood's nightmares. Topics included The discovery in the barn on the first day of hunting season The murder of Bernice Warden and the antifreeze receipt that gave Gein away Augusta Gein and a childhood built on isolation and religious fear The suspicious death of Ed's brother Henry What police found inside the farmhouse The confirmed victims versus the grave robbing Mary Hogan and the women who resembled his mother The schizophrenia diagnosis and a lifetime in an institution How Gein inspired Norman Bates, Leatherface and Buffalo Bill Whether the story deserves any sympathy at all Resources and Further Reading Ed Gein - Wikipedia Deviant: The Shocking True Story of Ed Gein, the Original ‘Psycho' – by Harold Schechter "Monster, The Ed Gien Story (2025) - Netflix Host & Show InfoHosts: Kyle Risi & Adam CoxIntro Music: Alice in dark WonderlandCommunity & Calls to ActionReview & follow on: Spotify & Apple PodcastsInstagram: @theCompendiumPodcastWebsite: thecompendiumpodcast.comSupport us: Sign up to PatreonShare this episode with a friend!

 Movie Meltdown - Episode 662 Join us for an epic Merrye family reunion… of sorts. This episode has been years in the making, as we visit a never before heard interview we did with the legendary Sid Haig! We not only get a blast from the past discussion with Sid about working on "Spider Baby", but we also recently sat down with Beverly Washburn to get her memories of the film as well as her take on the legacy this movie has had on her life and fans around the world. Then after the interviews with the stars of the film we settle in for a lengthy discussion on this horror classic and many of the reasons it not only still holds up today - but was also way ahead of its time.  And while we bust out our cheap, horror VHS tapes, we also mention… Pasadena Playhouse, horrible bastardized version of the nuclear family, having a passion for something, Zacherley, worldwide fanbase, House of 1000 Corpses, the creepy girl "type", self referential horror, Carnival of Souls, buy your alter ego a top hat, Ozzie and Harriet, you regress more until you just become an animal, Dusty Bluffs, upper class deviants, operating on instinct, unconditional love, Beetlejuice, handled in monster kid fashion, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, these kids today, Pit Stop, independent filmmaking, fighting their demons, going no contact with your family, Scream, the missing link of horror movies, Leave it to Beaver, completely unburdened by psychosis, professional playfulness, Wednesday Addams, cleaning up the sound, psychological warfare at the dinner table, the mummy movies, and it all started at Ralphs grocery.  Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers as we dig into the entirety of "Spider Baby" - so go watch the movie. "You know, I think I'm learning a lot about life… from Spider Baby."

Highway dust, broken promises, and a stolen badge set the stage as The Blind Rage Podcast rips into THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE BEGINNING (2006), the prequel that decides subtlety is for other franchises. Set against the final days of the Vietnam draft, a group of young friends heads out on one last carefree trip and instead collides with the Hewitt family at their most feral. When a deranged drifter murders the local sheriff and slips into his uniform like it is just another piece of skin, the road to freedom turns into a sadistic masquerade of authority, brutality, and raw meat. This is Leatherface before the legend calcified, shaped by slaughterhouse scraps and a family that treats torture like a bonding exercise. We dig into the grime, the performances, the outrageous escalation, and how this chapter doubles down on cruelty while trying to carve its own bloody identity.

Devin & James are back in the Den, and it's gonna be a hot one! That's because we are taking a look at SUMMER HORROR MOVIES, in which characters have their summer in the wilderness ruined by maniacs or savage beasts. Largely inspired by any combinations of Deliverance, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or Jaws, these films filled the theaters for several years, with results being among both the most unique and the most formulaic of the 1970s, 80s, and early 90s.We start with 1976's "Jaws with Claws", GRIZZLY. Then we discuss the underrated RITUALS, starring the great Hal Holbrook. Then we dive into Joe Dante's brilliant PIRANHA. Things get bizarre when we visit the 1979 slasher TOURIST TRAP. Then we take a look at WITHOUT WARNING, about a pre-Predator alien on a hunting trip. We discuss what makes JUST BEFORE DAWN, THE FOREST, and THE PREY interesting among the many Friday the 13th wannabes before we check into the best of those, SLEEPAWAY CAMP. We finish off in 1993 with the video store classic, TICKS, starring Seth Green and Alfonso Ribeiro.So grab a six-pack of Mountain Dew and some frozen Otter Pops, because it's time to cool off with a summer movie marathon!

Get revved up, Junkions, because this new episode has a lot of buzz! Brian and Cargill are joined by David Weiner (director of the In Search of Darkness documentary series) to brutally dissect one of the most foundational and terrifying horror films of all time. Who will survive The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (episode)?And what will be left of them?Support us on Patreon!

Who are the greatest female heroes in horror movie history? In this episode, we celebrate the courageous women who faced unimaginable terror and refused to give up. From Marilyn Burns' Sally Hardesty surviving the nightmare of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, to Olivia Hussey's Jess in Black Christmas, Shelley Duvall's Wendy Torrance fighting for her son's life in The Shining, and Maika Monroe's Jay Height confronting an unstoppable curse in It Follows, these unforgettable characters proved that courage isn't the absence of fear, but the determination to keep going.  We also spotlight Greta Schroder's Ellen in the silent horror masterpiece Nosgeratu, Emily Perkins' Brigitte Fitzgerald from Ginger Snaps, Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley in Alien, Frieda Inescourt's Lady Jane Ainsley in Return of the Vampire, and the legendary Jamie lee Curtis as Laurie Strode in Halloween. Join us as we discuss what makes these women true horror icons, how they changed the genre, and why they continue to inspire audiences decades later. Who is your favorite heroic women in horror?

Kane Hodder has played many of horror's favorite monsters. From his definitive turn under the hockey mask as Jason Voorhees, to cult icon Victor Crowley, and even a cameo as a primary character from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. In this hilarious and revealing conversation with Misfit Parade's Josh Griffey and Sophia Spiegel at Days of the Dead in Indianapolis, Hodder opens up about getting the rug pulled on him before production on Freddy vs Jason, reprising the character for a video game, what stars like Brad Pitt and Charlize Theron taught him and his upcoming appearance in another beloved serial killer franchise - Dexter.

Believe it or not, there was a time when instant access to hundreds of horror movies didn't exist. Scary thought, huh? Before the late 1950s, unless you caught a movie in the theater, you probably weren't going to see it again, especially when it came to the classic monster films like Dracula and Frankenstein. But in October 1957, Universal released 52 of its horror films to television in what became known as the Shock Theater package. To help promote the broadcasts, television stations were encouraged to create "horror hosts" to introduce the films. Simply put, it exploded, and helped give birth to the Monster Kid generation. Then, the following year, Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine debuted, and there was really no turning back. Now you could watch these monsters in the safety of your own home. It was a far cry from today's world, where you can hop on a computer or streaming service and have thousands of horror titles at your fingertips. But this was the beginning of modern horror fandom: getting your weekly fix of classic monsters on television, reading Famous Monsters, building Aurora monster model kits... life was pretty great. In this episode, we discuss the importance of this moment in horror history and why it was such a game changer for horror fans. Films mentioned in this episode: Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948), The Addams Family (1964-66), The Black Cat (1934), Blood of Dracula (1957), The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Dark Shadows (1966-71), Dawn of the Dead (1978), Day of the Dead (1985), Dracula (1931), The Exorcist (1973), Frankenstein (1931), The Gorgon (1964), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), The Invisible Man (1933), I Was a Teenage Frankenstein (1957), I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957), Jaws (1975), The Jungle Captive (1945), King Kong (1933), The Last Warning (1938), The Mummy (1932), The Munsters (1964-66), The Mystery of Edwin Drood (1935), Night of the Living Dead (1968), Return of Dracula (1958), Rosemary's Baby (1968), Smokey and the Bandit (1977), Son of Kong (1933), The Spy Ring (1938), Star Wars (1977), Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), Them (1954), The Wolf Man (1941)

Sunlight blasts through a grimy Texas window as The Blind Rage Podcast squares up with THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (2003), the moment the 2000s decided every dusty nightmare needed a factory reset. The '70s felt dangerous because it looked like it might fall apart on camera. This one feels assembled, tightened, stress tested. The grime is measured. The violence is amplified. The silence between screams feels engineered for surround sound. It is definitely not the last time the aughts would dig up a classic and repackage it with heavier boots and sharper edges. It is the opening bell for a decade that mistook louder for harsher and harsher for better. We talk about remake fatigue before it even had a name, about how a franchise built on raw nerve became a blueprint for the assembly line. THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE is less a singular shock and more a signpost pointing toward the wave that followed. Platinum Dunes fingerprints all over the genre. A shift in tone. A shift in texture. A shift that left some of us standing there, arms crossed, wondering when horror stopped feeling unpredictable and started feeling focus tested.

"Well does anyone care about me and my boy?"The Horror Bulls fire up the chainsaw for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), Marcus Nispel's grimy remake that transformed Leatherface into an unstoppable force of terror.

On the way they stumble across what appears to be a deserted house, only to discover something sinister within. Something armed with a chainsaw.  This 1974 classic still has staying power and we dig into why and what it means to us as fans.

A radio station booth rattles with feedback and The Blind Rage Podcast cranks up THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, PART 2 (1986), where the '70s grit mutates into '80s carnival insanity. Fluorescent lights buzz, chili steam curls into the air, and suddenly Leatherface is revving a chainsaw like it's a love language. The grime is louder, the colors hotter, and Tobe Hooper turns the volume knob until it snaps clean off. Dennis Hopper storms through the chaos with wild eyed determination and a pair of chainsaws that look like they were purchased during a hardware store exorcism. Bill Moseley's Chop Top chatters and scrapes at his metal plate with that coat hanger, a sound so specific it practically scratches your own scalp. Meanwhile, Caroline Williams plants herself in the madness and refuses to blink. THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, PART 2 doesn't creep under the skin. It cannonballs straight into the bloodstream wearing neon and motor oil.

This week, the CREEP-O-RAMA crew trades ghost stories for story structure as we pull up a chair with Jeff Barker for an incredibly fun deep dive into horror filmmaking, screenwriting, and why the best stories are built on unforgettable characters – not just monsters.  Jeff shares some behind-the-scenes stories about his son,filmmaker Curry Barker, whose film Obsession has dominated the box office and offers some insight into why authentic storytelling will always outlive Hollywood trends. The conversation also touches on Curry's upcoming projects, including Anything but Ghosts and the upcoming The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, while celebrating the passion, persistence, and occasional creative chaos that comes with independent filmmaking. Of course, this is CREEP-O-RAMA, so staying on topic lastsapproximately six minutes. One minute we're talking about screenplay structure, and thenext we're passionately dissecting what makes horror characters unforgettable, why the best monsters are usually human, and delivering some necessary dad-wisdom about secretly believing our first draft is somehow also our final draft is just us procrastinating.  We gotta face the truth at some point. (Talking to myself here.) Jeff's background in psychology opens the door to discussing why some of the best horror stories aren't built around just jump scares, but believable people making impossible decisions -- especially spectacularly terrible ones. By the end of the episode, we've solved exactly all ofHollywood's problems, accidentally convinced ourselves we all need to rewrite everything we've ever created, and somehow turned a filmmaking interview into the cinematic equivalent of four friends getting kicked out of a coffee shop because they wouldn't stop talking about just how intense that head-smash scene was.  Just make sure to credit Jeff when you suddenly decide your script needs “one tiny rewrite” and emerge six months later with an entirely different movie.

As luck would have it, a group of horribly annoying influencers has purchased a small town in Texas and are offering up an elderly woman's home for a low low price! Sure she still lives there, but that's what throwing her in the dust and stealing her house is for! Anywho, I guess Leatherface has some kind of stupid attachment to the old timer and is now on a killing rampage, cutting up influencers like it's going out of style. Supporting their grizzly demise, the gang hides out and discusses the 2022 Netflix misfire “TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE” with Shane and Leo Purdy until Mr. Face quenches his sweet sweet bloodlust!

A rusted meat hook sways in the dark as The Blind Rage Podcast fires up THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (1974) and inhales the gasoline and bone dust of 70s horror. Shot on blistering Texas afternoons with sweat soaking through every frame, this film feels less like a movie and more like found evidence. The camera jitters, the air looks thick enough to chew, and somewhere in that farmhouse the generator hum turns into a lullaby you never wanted. Gunnar Hansen's towering Leatherface lumbers through doorways like a startled bull in an apron, while Marilyn Burns delivers a performance so raw it practically scrapes the inside of your skull. Even the dinner table seems alive, rattling with metallic clatter and heatstroke hysteria. THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE does not beg for attention. It grips your collar with greasy fingers and drags you across sun baked gravel.

Welcome back to The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast! Things are a little different this week, as Amanda is out of town, leaving Clay to hold down the fort all by himself. But don't worry—he's not completely alone. Joining him are two longtime friends of the show, Grim Santo, proprietor of the horror-themed bakery Grim Delights, and Listener Kyle, who will no doubt remind everyone that he is the "co-creator" of The Rotten Horror Picture Show—a claim that is enthusiastic, persistent, and, as always, entirely non-legally binding. Together, the trio square off in a heated game of Horror Movie Trivial Pursuit, testing their knowledge of slashers, monsters, sequels, and obscure genre minutiae in an episode that's equal parts competition and chaos.Now, I have to admit something: I've never understood the appeal of trivia games. Everybody gets so excited to answer questions they either already know or don't know. Where's the suspense? Where's the giant wheel? Personally, I've always been a Wheel of Fortune person. Spin the wheel! Buy a vowel! Hope you don't land on Bankrupt! That's entertainment. On Jeopardy! they're all standing there pretending it's perfectly normal to answer every question with another question. If I went to the grocery store and the cashier said, "That'll be $42.17," and I replied, "What is forty-two dollars and seventeen cents?" they'd ask me to leave.So while Clay, Grim, and Kyle are battling over horror trivia, I'm over here wondering why nobody's trying to solve "R _ B E R T E N G L U N D" for a new dining room set. Grim can sweeten the competition with haunted pastries from Grim Delights, Kyle can continue campaigning for official co-creator status, and Clay can try to keep the whole thing on the rails.Me? I'll be at home hoping someone wins a lovely trip to Aruba... preferably without having to answer who directed The Texas Chain Saw Massacre first.Be sure to check out Grim's dark delights over at https://www.grimdelights.shop/And follow Clay and Amanda down the rocky road of horror sequels at patreon.com/thepenskyfile

OBSESSION has rewritten the Hollywood rulebook and one man is responsible for that -- director Curry Barker, all of 26 years old. Since his under million dollar horror feature debuted last month, the film and Barker's reputation have grown week by week. Josh catches up with Curry in the middle of this amazing run to find out what it's like to have THE film everyone is talking about, getting shouted by Steven Spielberg, getting offered projects like TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, and maintaining artistic integrity even as offers come flooding in. #happysadconfused #joshhorowitz #obsession #currybarker NOTE: This conversation contains OBSESSION spoilers!

Long before serial killers became podcast and true crime doc celebrities in the US, there was Joe Ball: a bootlegger, bar owner, womanizer, and suspected murderer who kept a pit full of hungry alligators behind his Texas tavern. In the late 1930s, as women connected to Ball began disappearing one after another, rumors spread that "The Alligator Man" wasn't just feeding stray animals to his reptiles—he might have been feeding them people...
