Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw. Last week we survived the raw, grimy nightmare of the original. This week, we crank the volume, splash neon on the walls, and let the madness loose with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2. Bryan, Zombie Dog, Joel, and Ryan are diving into Tobe Hooper's unhinged, blood-soaked carnival ride that trades bleak terror for pitch-black comedy, bigger kills, and a Leatherface who somehow becomes both more terrifying and… strangely emotional. It's louder. It's gorier. It's completely unafraid to be ridiculous. Was this a bold reinvention? A satire disguised as a slasher? Or just pure 80s chaos with a chainsaw soundtrack? Either way, we're going back to Texas. Hope you like chili.

Welcome back to Binge Buddies. New season, new nightmares. This is Off the (Chain)Saw, where we carve our way through the most iconic horror films ever made. And for Episode 1, we're starting where the nightmare really began: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Bryan, Zombie Dog, Joel, and Ryan are diving into the 1974 classic that redefined low-budget terror, introduced the world to Leatherface, and proved that sometimes the scariest thing in America is just a dusty road and a bad decision. It's gritty. It's raw. It's louder than it should be. And somehow, it still works. Grab your headphones. Lock the doors. Let's start the engine.
Today, we are sitting down with Sarah Yarkin, the breakout star of School Spirits and the lead of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot. Sarah shares her journey from growing up in the Bay Area to navigating UCLA's acting program, where she felt she had to "fight the program" just to begin her professional career. In this episode, we explore the "staircase analogy" of acting, the grueling physical demands of filming horror in Bulgaria, and the liberating moment she realized that "fucking up" an audition can actually be the key to booking the role. Sarah offers a raw, hilarious, and deeply insightful look at trusting your path, letting go of perfectionism, and finally learning to stop delaying your happiness for the next job. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Sarah Yarkin right here.

Not Psycho or The Texas Chain Saw Massacre but a secret third thing. From wiki: "Deranged (also known as Deranged: Confessions of a Necrophile)[2] is a 1974 Canadian psychological horror film directed by Alan Ormsby and Jeff Gillen, and starring Roberts Blossom. Its plot, loosely based on the crimes of Ed Gein,[3] follows Ezra Cobb, a middle-aged man in a rural Midwestern community who begins a string of serial murders and grave robberies after the death of his mother Amanda, a religious fanatic who raised him to be a misogynist. The film features a diegetic narration in which newspaper columnist Tom Simms occasionally appears and narrates the events depicted. Though based on Gein, the film's title is misleading since Gein never experimented with necrophilia (although a necrophile is also defined as having "an obsessive fascination with death and corpses.")"Also discussed: Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie, Pillion, Send Help, Sam Raimi, earwax, Letter Kenny, Canada, Bob Clark, and more.

Episode 306: The Lesser Massacres. Upon news that A24 Studios has acquired the film and television rights to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, we decided to take a dive into what is widely regarded as one of the least successful yet enduring series of sequels among the big horror film franchises. Beginning with Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III and working our way through the subsequent sequels in chronological order until we can't take anymore, this week the saw is family. Who will survive and what will be left of us?

Es wird Zeit für eine neue Filmreihenbesprechung. Nach dem wir die Filme des Texas Chainsaw Franchises ganz zu Beginn von Devils & Demons zwar schön, aber nicht wirklich umfangreich besprochen haben, holen wir dies nun in den nächsten Monaten nach. Angefangen natürlich bei Tobe Hoopers Meisterwerk aus dem Jahr 1974. Funktioniert der Film immer noch so gut? Welche Botschaften stecken in dem Film? Ist Franklin wirklich der nervigste Horrorfilmcharakter aller Zeiten? Natürlich gibt es auch wieder die Wahl zum Kill of the Week, Survivor und Douchebag der Woche. Viel Spaß!

Brute 1976 is a solid horror movie that throws us back to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes days where there are desert-dwelling psychos who kill with thrill. The campiness of the classic group further mimics the bohemian feel of characters, each of whom personifies those slasher stereotypes we know and love. I can honestly say you will be afraid of those weekend getaways where everyone is targeted. Brute 1976 left me completely full on the type of horror I love. Sarah French: the award-winning actress who has been in more independent horror movies than I can count, she is what I would call pure talent. Not only has she impressed me her ability to act in every role given, but she has also left the impression that no matter what it takes, she will get the job done. Her role in Brute 1976 as Sunshine has definitely lit up the screen with her iconic gift to grab the essence of that character and bring her to life. If you have not seen this movie, I highly recommend it… If you want to travel back in time to revisit your love for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes, then you have to see this spot-on replica of the imaginative storylines. Brute 1976 is now on Digital: Tubi, Amazon Prime Video, Fandango, Apple Tv and many more platforms. If you're a fan of 70s horror, then you have to see this! Make sure to stop by Sarah's Facebook and Instagram pages to show her some “Brute” love and support.
The genesis of our show can be found in the Alamo Drafthouse. We may not go to it as often as we used to, but we did not want to see it close its doors in El Paso. We have not had too many good things to say about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise recently. Maybe the latest update will have us singing a different tune. Plus, a lot of Mike Flannagan news.Unsurprisingly, we love Halloween. The costumes, the movies, the parties, we enjoy it all. Still, a Halloween movie at the beginning of the year is a little weird. But what if that movie dresses up as a Halloween movie but has nothing to do with it?Even putting aside the fact that it is a Halloween movie that has no costumes, no decorations, and no pumpkins, The Haunted Forest is a strange film. The protagonist is surrounded by death, but is more concerned about whether he should go to work. A woman on her way to college grooms a high school kid. Two haunts with similar names become involved in a blood feud. It also includes the hardest cut possible ever seen in movie history.Movies based on video games are nothing new. One of the biggest stories of this young year is how a small indie horror based on a little game has been a box office success. It is hard to believe that within a matter of weeks, two indie horrors based on indie games have dropped, however.The Mortuary Assistant has the expected thrills, chills, and spills. It does a nice job of changing up the formula by having the vessel for possession have much more agency. There are also some spooky visuals in it. If only the damn story did not get in the way.

Thomas rolls in riding the Super Bowl champ high (full hat, jersey, and apparently socks and underwear too), and the crew kicks things off with a Valentine's-themed Question of the Week: what's the "flowers" equivalent for men? From there, it's a full Super Bowl rundown: a defense-heavy game, a halftime show that hit hard for the culture heads in the room, and commercials that landed (and a few that didn't). Then the episode pivots back into geek mode with reactions to a Baldur's Gate TV series in development, more love for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms as it ramps toward its Trial of Seven moment, and optimism for Disney's Eragon series thanks to the creative team involved. The back half is all Fallout Season 2, with the crew landing in the "good, not great" zone while still getting hyped for what Season 3 could pay off. You also get network updates, convention panel plans, and weekly recommendations to close it out. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome in, Thomas' Super Bowl champ victory lap 01:30 Question of the Week: what's the "flowers" equivalent for men? 05:00 Super Bowl reactions: defense wins championships, Seahawks nostalgia, "Dark Side" vibes 08:20 Halftime show talk: Bad Bunny, cultural references, and why it hit for the whole room 12:00 More halftime highlights: Green Day shoutout, Ricky Martin surprise, who should headline next? 15:45 Favorite Super Bowl ads + why the Mando spot felt weirdly caught in the middle 18:00 Trailer talk: what the Super Bowl did (and didn't) deliver this year 22:05 Baldur's Gate TV series discussion: big potential, big concerns (and the Larian question) 26:10 A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 4 hype, pacing praise, and "short and punchy" working 35:20 Eragon series at Disney+: why it might finally work this time 42:10 Fallout Season 2 review: what worked, what dragged, and where Season 3 needs to go 55:40 Network updates: new host announcements, recent episodes, Survivor 50 build-up 57:40 Convention panel plans: comics, game dev, podcasting, Kickstarter marketing 58:50 Recommendations of the week (including The Smashing Machine) Key Takeaways Thomas' Super Bowl joy is basically a case study in "I don't believe it until it's real," and that made the win hit even harder. The crew's "flowers for men" answers are wildly revealing: gift cards for movies and games, Legos as a seasonal tradition, and the underrated power of small thoughtful grabs. The halftime show conversation lands on something bigger than music: representation, cultural shoutouts, and why certain moments connect differently when your household speaks the language. The Mandalorian & Grogu Super Bowl spot discussion nails the core frustration: it didn't fully serve as a trailer or as a commercial, so it split the difference and lost impact. Baldur's Gate as a TV playground sounds like a great idea, but the lack of Larian involvement raises real "are they just using the name?" concerns. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms keeps winning people over because it feels like it belongs in Westeros without trying to copy the tone of the flagship shows. Eragon could finally pop with Disney backing it, especially if the show uses budget smartly and nails the dragon work. Fallout Season 2 feels more like the game experience (factions, doors opening, long quests) which is cool for gamers but can make the season feel more like setup than payoff. Memorable Quotes "Wear the hat, the jersey, the socks, the underwear. All the above." "Defense wins championships." "Theaters are sacred to me." "I don't like flowers because you're watching them die." "This isn't your Game of Thrones. Don't buy this for a Game of Thrones." "It was good. I don't think it was great."

De boys zijn weer terug voor een bomvolle aflevering, want Nerd Culture #245 zit ramvol series, films, trailers en industrie-praat waar je licht nerveus van wordt (op een goede manier). Van prestige-tv en arthouse tot keiharde franchise-moves, bizarre trailers en streamingmachtsverschuivingen: dit is weer zo'n aflevering waarin alles samenkomt.We blikken terug op wat we hebben gekeken, duiken in titels als Wonder Man, Fallout, Past Lives en The Matrix, en schakelen daarna moeiteloos door naar het grote nieuws: van Baldur's Gate op HBO en een mogelijke Metroid-film tot Pirates of the Caribbean die opnieuw de zee op wil. Verwacht meningen, context, zijpaden en het onvermijdelijke gekibbel.Pirates of the Caribbean 6 gaat een soft-reboot wordenDeze week was er nieuws over Pirates of the Caribbean 6, een franchise die na jaren van twijfel, mislukte plannen en creatieve stilstand eindelijk weer tekenen van leven vertoont. Disney lijkt serieus te willen resetten, met een nieuwe creatieve koers die het oude gevoel respecteert maar niet blijft hangen in nostalgie. We bespreken de mogelijke focus op een nieuwe generatie piraten, de opvallende betrokkenheid van 1917-schrijver Krysty Wilson-Cairns, de geruchten rond een “punkrock”-achtige nieuwe hoofdrol en de vraag die boven alles hangt: is er nog een plek voor Jack Sparrow, en zo ja, in welke vorm? Kortom: kan Pirates zichzelf opnieuw uitvinden zonder zijn ziel te verliezen?Baldur's Gate krijgt zijn eigen Dungeons and Dragons TV showWe hebben goed nieuws voor de DnD fans: Baldur's Gate krijgt een HBO-serie, onder leiding van Craig Mazin, de man achter Chernobyl en The Last of Us. En dit wordt geen hervertelling, maar een directe voortzetting van het verhaal van Baldur's Gate 3. We bespreken waarom dit een fundamenteel andere aanpak is dan bij eerdere game-adaptaties, hoe Mazins obsessieve liefde voor Dungeons & Dragons en BG3 hier een enorme rol speelt, en waarom HBO hiermee ineens een serieuze fantasy-titel in handen heeft die niet leunt op bestaande filmfranchises. Oude én nieuwe personages, politieke nasleep, morele consequenties en een wereld die groot genoeg is om jarenlang verhalen te dragen: dit zou wel eens de blauwdruk kunnen worden voor hoe game-verhalen voortaan naar tv worden vertaald.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #24500:00:40 Gamekings 25 jaar feest volledig uitverkocht00:01:52 Wat hebben we gekeken gelezen en geluisterd00:05:55 Marvel Wonder Man review00:10:44 A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms HBO preview00:16:23 The Matrix klassieker bespreking00:22:10 Past Lives film review00:25:38 Fallout Season 2 verwachtingen00:31:00 Michael trailer reactie00:33:10 Wonder Man mogelijk seizoen 2 Marvel Studios00:35:20 YouTube groter dan Netflix in streaming00:37:00 Komt er een live-action TMNT film00:40:38 Baldur's Gate krijgt HBO tv-serie00:44:19 Jurassic Park Super Bowl commercial00:48:00 Exit 8 trailer00:50:30 Henry Cavill eerste blik als Highlander00:51:12 Henry Cavill en Warhammer 40K project00:53:35 Pirates of the Caribbean reboot details00:58:08 Nintendo werkt aan Metroid film01:03:55 Texas Chainsaw Massacre tv-serie A2401:06:00 Neighbors trailer01:08:00 Kijk-tip Huey The Empire Strikes Door01:09:00 Kijk-tip Koos

From Disney's new CEO to Googles game "maker". GTA 6 is locked in, and so is the final Fast and Furious. But what does it mean for you? Meanwhile Overwatch is shedding its 2, and going old school.
In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the news that A24 has acquired The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and is planning both a TV series and a new movie. The series is described as an “original approach” rather than a remake of the 1974 film, with J.T. Molner and Glen Powell attached as producers. We also talk about why A24 feels like a fascinating fit for slasher properties, how their tension-building style could change the vibe of classic franchises, and what this might mean for the broader horror landscape, including A24's Crystal Lake project tied to Friday the 13th. Finally, we toss out a personal wish: A24 taking a crack at the Halloween franchise.00:00 A24 acquires The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and announces plans for a TV series and movie00:15 The movie is early in development, and why a 1974 remake could still work00:28 Why A24's “care” and cinematic style could be a big upgrade for slashers00:50 A24's Crystal Lake connection and the hope for an A24-led Halloween revival01:04 Listener prompt and wrap-upA24 is expanding The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with a TV series plus a separate film project.The TV series is positioned as an original take, not a straight remake of the 1974 story.The film side is still very early, which leaves the door open for several directions, including a fresh reboot.A24's signature tension and presentation could be a strong match for classic slasher DNA.With Crystal Lake also on A24's slate, it feels like they're building a real lane in horror franchises.There's real curiosity (and some excitement) around what A24 would “change or expand” in Chainsaw's world.“The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has just been acquired by A24, and they're making a TV series and movie out of this.”“The TV series is going to be an original approach. It's not going to be a remake of the 1974 film.”“I wouldn't hate them remaking that, especially with A24's touch.”“I really want them to grab the Halloween franchise. That's my favorite horror franchise.”If you enjoyed the episode, subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines, leave a quick review, and share this episode with a fellow horror fan using #GeekFreaksHeadlines.GeekFreaksPodcast.com (our news source)Twitter: @geekfreakspodInstagram: @geekfreakspodcastThreads: @geekfreakspodcastFacebook: The Geek Freaks PodcastPatreon: Geek Freaks PodcastGot strong opinions on what A24 should keep sacred vs. reinvent in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre?

This week on If You Give A Dad A Podcast, Jared sits down with Mark Burnham, best known for playing Leatherface in Netflix's Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Mark talks about stepping into one of horror's most iconic roles and how this film serves as a direct sequel to the original, exploring why Leatherface returns after years of silence. He also shares stories from his work in cult classics Wrong and Wrong Cops, and reflects on working with their unique creator and director. The conversation also takes a fun turn as Mark looks back on his role as Lenny in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, including a memorable exchange with Spike that fans will love. It's a wide-ranging discussion full of horror, humor, and behind-the-scenes stories from a career that spans genres.
In My Skin (2002), Inside (2007), and Martyrs (2008) While the French aren't widely known for their horror films, when they do enter the genre, it's often something special. A perfect example is Georges Franju's Eyes Without a Face (1960). With its stark realism and dark themes, it established a tone of discomfort and unease that still feels powerful today. In the early 2000s, a new wave of younger filmmakers took that sense of unease and pushed it much further, deliberately testing the limits of what audiences could tolerate. These films were often graphic, sometimes over-the-top, and frequently dealt with disturbing subject matter that lingered even when the violence or gore wasn't shown onscreen. Often, it wasn't what you saw that was hardest to watch, but the subject itself and the way it was presented. In this episode, we take on three titles that demonstrate the range of this movement, from deeply subversive and uncomfortable subject matter to films that push gore to extreme levels, while still challenging the viewer intellectually and emotionally. These are films that don't just shock in the moment, they can leave you unsettled for days after they end. That's powerful filmmaking. Films mentioned in this episode: Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001), Calvaire (2004), Dark Touch (2013), Diabolique (1955), Eyes Without A Face (1960), Frontier(s) (2007), Get Out (2017), High Tension (2003), The Horde (2009), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), In My Skin (2002), Inside (2007), Irreversible (2002), I Stand Alone (1998), Martyrs (2008), The Phantom of Liberty (1974), Raw (2016), Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom (1975), Scream (1996), The Shining (1980), The Tall Man (2012), Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), Them (2006), Trouble Every Day (2001)

Movie Meltdown - Episode 654 Sam Drog returns as we use this moment in time to stop and take a look at the state of the media that we love. We examine things like… kids watching black and white movies, shooting movies vertically, the look of Super 8 film, watching multiple versions of vintage films, the general population talking about 'movies today', different eras of older directors, a new wave of CG technology, add to cart links during commercials, stories can re-wire your brain and fighting robots to reclaim our humanity. And as we recalibrate the measure of suck, also delve into…mummy movies, a curiosity relic, James Cameron, a whole new level of sellout, pop culture surfing, old man rage bait, loading a film camera, KPop Demon Hunters, this need for things to make sense can be weaponized, Stranger Things, coming full circle on the way we consume our media, Skynet nightmares, the many versions of the Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Yoda awareness, creating memories with friends vs experiencing entertainment by yourself, AI as your own personal operating system, Japanese fan culture, field testing Howling 2, THX 1138, the modern way of watching TV shows, time is weird, Barbie, frictionless consumerism, distracting you from existential panic, I kind of miss the process of thinking my own thoughts and the horrors of server farms.
