This week's movie news is PACKED! We're diving into the “Urban Legend” remake announcement – is it necessary or sacrilege? Guy Ritchie's taking the “Road House” reigns with Jake Gyllenhaal – can he deliver the action we crave? And Ryan Coogler's “Sinners” continues to wonderfully defy expectations at the box office! We'll also analyze the Thunderbolts* new official title. Was it too early to reveal that spoiler after opening weekend? And give our first impressions of the explosive trailers for “Weapons,” “The Smashing Machine,” “Now You See Me: Now You Don't,” “Highest 2 Lowest,” and the buzzed about body horror film “Together,” starring Alison Brie and Dave Franco.

This week the Hosts plunge into the spectral cesspool of digital damnation, as we boot up the blood-streaked cartridge and take a long, hard stare into the maw of Lavender Town Syndrome—a supposed phenomenon that emerged from the haunted silicon heart of 1990s Japan, leaving behind a trail of shrieking children, shattered minds, and data that no sane person would code. With a soundtrack engineered like a neural drill and tones pitched to summon something ungodly from the shadowy trench of our subconscious, this episode explores the sinister myth of a cursed Pokémon game. Was it mass hysteria, urban legend, or a digital sigil encoded with something far older than Pikachu? Join us as we chase spectral signals through the static haze, peeling back layers of corrupted code and weaponized nostalgia in search of answers. But be warned—there are some places the mind should never go. And this one comes with an 8-bit soundtrack tuned for madness. No gods. No masters. Just Game Boys... and the children who heard them calling... Citizens of the Milky Way, prepare yourselves for Video Game Urban Legends: Pokemon's Lavender Town Syndrome! Sound and Editing by Gage Hurley Check out VaporVerse: https://www.youtube.com/@vaporversemusic++++Check out our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/creepstreetpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/creepstreetpodcast YouTube: https://youtube.com/@creepstreetpodcast5062?feature=shared TikTik: https://www.tiktok.com/@creepstreetpodcast #ParanormalPodcast #CryptidEncounters #ScaryStoryTime #TrueScaryStories #StayParanoid #MidnightShiftHorror #CreepStreetPodcast #ParanormalEncounters #ParanormalActivity #UnexplainedMysteries #CreepyStories #AlienEncounters #UrbanLegends #WeirdButTrue #SupernaturalMysteries #ScaryPodcast #HorrorCommunity #HorrorPodcast #CreepyTales #SpookySeason #ExploreTheUnknown #MythAndMystery #ComedySketch #Comedy #ComedyShorts #HorrorComedy #ParanormalTikTok #WeirdHistory #SpookySeason #GhostsAndGhouls #ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight #IntoTheUnknown #OccultMysteries #HauntedArtifacts #OccultFolklore #DarkFolklore #SupernaturalLore #StayFreaky #Pokemon #Pickachu #PokemonRed #PokemonGreen #PokemonBlue

As we begin Season V, we explore one of the most unnerving figures in modern folklore: the Men in Black.Join us as we trace the shadowy origins of these silent enforcers, following their evolution from early UFO encounters to government conspiracies and their place in pop culture. We'll examine the strange patterns that link witness testimonies, the unsettling uniformity of their behaviour, and the psychological weight they carry as symbols of censorship, paranoia, and control. Blurring the line between reality and fabrication, this urban legend continues to haunt the spaces where secrets are meant to stay buried.Text Me (this is 3rd party & I cannot respond, but I see all messages)Support the showIf you have more information or a correction on something mentioned in this chapter, email us at luke@lukemordue.com.

HOUR ONE: It's rumored that an arcade game from 1980 might lead to the real death of its players. We'll look at the death curse of Berzerk. (The Berzerker Death Curse, And The Polybius Urban Legend) *** And another arcade game in the early 80s was surrounded by controversy – because the game never existed, despite so many saying it did. Or did it exist? We'll look at the urban legend of Polybius. (The Urban Legend of Polybius)==========HOUR TWO: Was Stanley Stiers the real-life inspiration for Michael Myers in 1978's John Carpenter film, “Halloween?” (The Real Michael Myers) *** The last known words of Peter Rugg were “Let the storm increase! I will see home tonight in spite of the last tempest, or I may never see home!" Over two-hundred years later and he has yet to make it home – but that hasn't stopped his tempest! (The Eternal Ride of Peter Rugg) *** Imagine attending college for several years, only to find out that the whole time you've been studying on top of the corpses of thousands of mental patients. That's exactly what happened in 2013 when The University of Mississippi made plans to expand parking for their students and staff. (The Corpses Under The University of Mississippi) *** Dealing with a ghost or two is awful enough – but what if you're attacked by a whole gang of ghouls? It was reported as real news in 1889's Chicago Tribune! (A Whole Gang O' Ghosts) *** People With Super Powers!==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Michael Bryson disappeared on August 5th, 2020 from Hobo Campground at Umpqua National Forest. He has yet to be found. (The Disappearance of Michael Bryson) *** When it comes to cryptids, you have many to choose from – Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, the chupacabra, the list goes on and on. But I'm willing to bet nowhere on the list of your favorite cryptids, or even the cryptids you've ever heard of, do you have an entry for “The Belled Buzzard” of Texas. (The Belled Buzzard Legend) *** When the Black Plague arrived at Eyam's doorstep in the 17th century, its villagers were forced to choose between life or certain doom. It's the tragic tale of England's Plague Village.

In this eerie and entertaining episode of Mythlok, host Nitten Nair takes you on a joyride through the twisted tale of the Black Volga — a Soviet-era urban legend that blends cold war paranoia, creepy disappearances, and a limousine that may or may not be driven by Satan himself.From the streets of Warsaw to the alleys of Kiev, sightings of a mysterious black limousine sparked fear across generations. Was it a KGB deathmobile? A bloodthirsty nun-mobile? Or just the devil's Uber? We explore real-life incidents, bizarre eyewitness accounts, and wild theories that made the Black Volga a symbol of ultimate doom on four wheels.Packed with dark humor, spine-tingling storytelling, and just the right amount of "what if?", this episode will make you think twice before hitching a ride — especially if the car is shiny, black, and comes with complimentary curtains.Hit play, buckle up, and remember — some legends don't need monsters. Just a full tank and no license plate.

There are not many weeks that go by that we end up discussing news of a horror reboot. This show we talk about the Urban Legends reboot. There is not much news as of yet, but it is definitely coming. We talk about our memories of the movie, why it tends to be overlooked, and whether we are looking forward to it.During our last show, we talked about the awesome marketing behind Weapons. The advertising blitz for the film continues. This week a two hour YouTube video was released of security camera footage. There was also a bonkers trailer. The question becomes, when can you have too much of a good thing?Horror movies tend to be based around folklore. So it is not that surprising that there are not that many vampire films from Asia. Daydreamers is one of the first vampire movies to come out of Vietnam. Understandably, the story is a predictable one about a group of bloodsuckers who are fighting the urge to kill humans.There is no doubting how stylish Daydreamers is. And since there are so few vampire stories from that part of the world, it is easy to forgive many of the missteps. However, there is only so much you can overlook. Poor writing and pacing ruing what would be a flawed, but passable watch.Taking popular children's stories and putting a horror spin on them is nothing new. We talk about the recent glut of these types of movies and why people do not really care about them anymore. This leads to our feature presentation, the body horror retelling of Cinderella, The Ugly Stepsister.The plot is basically the same story everyone knows, but told from the point of view of one of the cruel stepsisters. Still, The Ugly Stepsister is its own tale. Though it covers many of the themes of the source material, the fact that it is told from a different perspective gives everything a different meaning. It is filled with surprises and is disgusting in all the best ways. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

1954 wird ein kaukasischer Mann bei der Einreise nach Japan am Flughafen verhaftet, weil man seinen Pass nicht einordnen kann und das ausstellende Land nicht kennt. Als ihm eine Landkarte gezeigt wird, damit er sagen kann, woher er stammt, zeigt er auf Andorra und nennt es „Taured“. Er kann nicht verstehen, warum niemand dieses Land kennt, das seiner Meinung nach seit 1000 Jahren existiert. Er wird in ein Hotel gebracht und zwei Polizisten bewachen sein Zimmer, während der Fall weiter untersucht wird. Als man ihn wieder besuchen will, ist das Zimmer leer und von dem Mann aus Taured blieb keine Spur. Kam er aus einem Paralleluniversum? Wir haben uns diese Geschichte kritisch angeschaut.

1957 erschien das Buch über die „Nasenschreitlinge“ oder „Naslinge“ (Rhinogradentia). Herausgeber war Prof. Harald Stümpke, der damit die Forschungsergebnisse des schwedischen Biologen Einar Petterson-Skämtwist veröffentlichte. Skämtwist hatte die Naslinge bereits 1941 auf der Flucht aus japanischer Kriegsgefangenschaft auf der pazifischen Inselgruppe Hi-Iay-Islands entdeckt. Nur dort kam diese Tierart vor. Ein missglückter Atomwaffentest führte 1945 zum Untergang der Inselgruppe, der Naslinge und aller weiteren Forschungsergebnisse. Wir haben uns die Informationen über die Rhinogradentia noch einmal genau angeschaut. Ihr könnt dreimal das Spiel „Der Brand“ von Magnificum gewinnen.

Nobody ever tells you that aging is mostly just getting weird things on your body that you may or may not have to worry about. And this is officially an old lady podcast. Sarah is obsessed with Love on the Spectrum and she explains why the people on the show are so adorable and why we wish neurotypical dating was this good. Susie thinks Sarah might be on the spectrum, so we're considering whether she fits the bill. We think we might want to cancel Einstein, which is a real bummer because he was one of our favorites. Turns out, Albert wasn't exactly as progressive as we hoped, but we're thinking he was just a product of his time. Everyone is psyched out of their minds about dire wolves "coming back from extinction" when a) they didn't and b) why would it even be exciting if they had? Susie thinks it's racist (lol) or because they were on Game of Thrones or because the company doing all this weird Jurassic Park shit just has really good PR. Sarah reveals an urban legend about a "carbahn" underneath Los Angeles that allows famous people to avoid traffic.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/a-babysitters-nightmare-raising-pets-instead-of-kids-secret-starbucksJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Get 20% off your first order at https://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDYGet up to 35% off PLUS 2 free gifts using code BRAINCANDY at https://shopbeam.com/BRAINCANDYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Celebrity gossip has always had a dark side. Those whispered tales of stars behaving badly, dying mysteriously, or hiding shocking secrets spread through Hollywood parties like wildfire, creating urban legends that live far longer than they deserve. Even in our hyper-connected age, these stories remain strangely persistent – because deep down, we want to believe.Kyle, Ben, and Alejandro gleefully dissect the wildest Hollywood myths you've definitely heard before. Remember when everyone swore Paul McCartney died in 1966 and was replaced by a lookalike named Billy Shears? The hosts untangle the bizarre web of "clues" fans claimed to find in Beatles album covers and songs played backward. Then there's the notorious Richard Gere gerbil rumor – a story so persistent it made its way into the movie "Scream" and prompted Barbara Walters herself to awkwardly address it during an interview.From Mr. Rogers' supposed secret life as a deadly military sniper to the enduring debate about Bert and Ernie's relationship status, we explore why these myths take hold and what they reveal about our culture. The team brings their trademark humor to these dark corners of entertainment history, finding the humanity and absurdity beneath stories that wouldn't die. Whether you're hearing these tales for the first time or fondly remember sharing them on your middle school playground, this episode will make you question what other "facts" you've accepted without evidence.Subscribe now and join our community of curious minds exploring entertainment's strangest corners.
