While this installment attempts to capture the magic of its predecessors, it often feels like a shadow of what once was. We'll explore the film's self-referential humor, uneven pacing, and the challenges of continuing a beloved franchise. With a mix of nostalgia and critique, we'll discuss how "Scream 3" fits into Craven's legacy and whether it manages to deliver the thrills fans expect.

Originally Recorded in May and June 2025 Hola, fans! That Horror Show Podcast brings you the third and final episode on Coffin Joe, created by Brazilian filmmaker Jose Mojica Marins. Show hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig finally give their take on the last two films and they are really something. First film on the docket for review is "Hellish Flesh" (1977), which could be easily described as a bizarre horror/thriller that is and is not a Coffin Joe vehicle. And after that, the hosts tackle "Hallucinations of a Deranged Mind" (1978), aka 'Coffin Joe Stock Footage Film Festival', in which new material is stitched with old to make a complete movie with hallucinogenic results and dime-store pop psychology! And yes, Nate from 'Kids Corner' gives his take on the Wes Craven horror classic "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984)! #coffinjoe #robertenglund #Hellishflesh #freddykruger #THSP E-mail: thathorrorshowpodcast@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/thathorrorshowpodcast Instagram: Tim@thathorrorshowposcast.instagram Slasher app: Tim@ThatHorrorGuy
Scream 2 is an excellent follow-up. It doesn't try to reinvent the wheel but understands the assignment. If you liked the first one, there's a lot here to enjoy—familiar faces, fresh kills, and a continued sense that horror can be scary and smart without taking itself too seriously.
In Episode 381 erfüllen wir Laura einen Wunsch. Das ist selten, soll aber vorkommen. Wir schauen uns den wegweisenden, aber trotzdem nahezu unbekannten Film Anguish an, der in Deutschland unter dem passenden Titel Im Augenblick der Angst veröffentlicht wurde. Der Film präsentiert eine Film in Film Metaebene, lange bevor Wes Craven und andere sich diese Spielart im Horrorfilm zu eigen machten. Aber wie gut funktioniert dieses Gimmick und was hat der Film noch zu bieten?
In this episode, we sit down with the legendary John Harrison — a creative force in horror and sci-fi — to trace his incredible journey from a love of film and music to becoming one of the most influential names in genre storytelling.We talk about his early days collaborating with the great George A. Romero, composing unforgettable scores for Creepshow and Day of the Dead, and how that partnership helped launch his career. John takes us deep into his work as both a writer and director on Tales from the Darkside, from the TV series to the now cult-favorite Tales from the Darkside: The Movie.We also revisit the underrated early gem Scary Tales, his contributions to Wes Craven's Nightmare Cafe, and his time working on Tales from the Crypt — all showcasing his lasting impact on anthology horror.The conversation takes a turn into sci-fi as John discusses his major role in bringing Frank Herbert's Dune to the screen — both in the acclaimed early 2000s adaptation and as executive producer on the current hit franchise.We also dive into his work on the modern Creepshow series for Shudder, the potential for more stories to come, and his exciting shift into novel writing with his recent books Destiny Gardens, Passing Through Veils, and Residue — the latter of which was adapted into a Netflix series.John reflects on the past, shares his thoughts on the future of the genre, and offers up some truly unforgettable behind-the-scenes stories.If you're a horror fan, this is one conversation you don't want to miss.Follow John Harrison: John Harrison WebsiteJohn Harrison InstagramIf you enjoyed this - Check out my other content here - https://linktr.ee/FirstClassHorrorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.
Send us a textKatie and Bridget keep each other awake as they rewatch the 80's horror classic: A Nightmare on Elm Street! Come along as we meet Nancy, an allegedly 15 year old teenager, who begins to have nightmares about Freddy Krueger, a bumbly serial killer with finger knives! Ah! When her friend Tina, her boyfriend Glenn, and the local menace Rod all have similar dreams of the same man then everybody starts dying! Seriously - there's lots of cool deaths in this movie with lots and lots of blood. Nobody believes Nancy when she tries to tell everyone who the killer is - not even her Mom who murdered the damn guy and is keeping his finger knife glove in her basement as a trophy - spoiler alert! It's up to Nancy to do all the research, make all the booby traps, and fight back against Freddy in her dreams. Seriously, should Nancy be the chief of police instead of her father!? Released in 1984, it was written and directed by Wes Craven and stars Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, Robert Englund, John Saxon, Amanda Wyss, Jsu Garcia, and Ronee Blakley.

Happy Friday Creek Talkers!
While New Nightmare has its moments of creativity and strong performances, it ultimately falls short of delivering the thrills and chills that fans expect from a Nightmare on Elm Street film. It's a thought-provoking entry in the franchise, but one that lacks the cohesive storytelling and visceral scares that made the original films classics. For die-hard fans of the series, it may be worth a watch, but for those seeking a truly terrifying experience, it may leave you wanting more.
In this special solo episode of 'That Was Pretty Scary,' host Jon Lee Brody dives deep into the 1977 horror film 'The Hills Have Eyes,' directed by the legendary Wes Craven. Celebrating their 13th episode, John discusses the film's historical context, themes of class warfare and survival, and the impact of Craven's direction on the genre. Learn about the film's production struggles, the innovative storytelling approaches, and how it paved the way for modern horror. Plus, John shares personal insights and stories about the film's producer, Peter Locke, and his unique experience meeting Wes Craven.

There's no denying Nightmare's place in horror history. It birthed a legend, introduced a terrifying concept, and proved that low-budget horror could be wildly imaginative. But as a film, it's best appreciated with caveats. It's not airtight. It's not consistently scary. But it is audacious, and sometimes that's enough to earn a nightmare or two.

In this wild Southern-fried horror tale by David O'Hanlon, a high school couple heads to a legendary swamp for one last unforgettable night—but instead of romance, they meet the horrifying truth behind a town's oldest legend.

The 90's were such a wonderful time for horror. 1996 In particular really kickstarted a new wave of horror, especially the rebirth of slashers. Yes, we all know Scream but there was firehose of teens getting butchered in the late 90's to 2000's and Urban Legend was one of the most memorable ones starring a who's who of teen icons! Friend of the pod (and good friend of mine) Clay joins me to discuss real Urban Legends, working on film sets, other movies and so very much more!

Cooper and Nolan are plugging in this week when they cover Wes Craven's SHOCKER! This supernatural serial killer story is heavy on action but light on details, which left the guys having to guess how or why a lot of stuff was happening. Maybe that's why they spent their time pulling from other movies like Poltergeist, Ghostbusters, and the director's own Nightmare on Elm Street to try to make sense of it. Still, with bigtime 80s horror vibes and a title that's easy to confuse with something else, you might want to find something to bite down on; this episode (featuring a beer from the Powerhouse Brewing Company) is 100,000 volts of fun!

We all know the GOOD horror movie remakes; The Thing, The Fly, The Blob, etc, but what about the remakes that are a little more underappreciated? Everyone now is foolishly remaking good movies into meh/garbage films, but what about taking a solidly meh movie to begin with and giving it a loving touchup? Wes Craven's 1977 ‘The Hills Have Eyes” is a bland version of the Sawney Bean legend, but what if that was jazzed up a bit into, say, a 2006 retelling focusing on the dangers of nuclear testing in the American Southwest? Well say what if no longer, because that's what we're covering today.
This week King Prince,Killah Keel & Wes Craven dicuss their new podcast soundtrack,new music (Lloyd Banks,Billy Woods,Boldy James,Benny The Butcher,Westside Gunn),the lack of new cemeteries,and of course everything current in the culture.Tune in for unfiltered Hip Hop discussion.
As we dive deeper into supernatural serial killer month we arrive here at Wes Craven's Shocker. A movie about a serial killer who develops electricity powers that let him jump from body to body to escape his son who has dream foresight powers and was raised in foster care by the cop who is out to stop him. You know that old chestnut but did we like it? Were we perplexed by some of the plot holes? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out.
A schizophrenic serial killer comes back to his hometown to kill the seven kids who were prematurely born on the day he reportedly died. My Soul to Take is a movie that we have long criticized for being a weak slasher in almost every possible way. It's even more unfortunate to know that it was directed by Wes Craven. This film has some interesting concepts that are not only poorly executed, but they also fail to develop into anything meaningful at any point. Not to mention, there are a ton of overplayed cliches and cringey, forgettable characters. Watch the movie and catch our review.

Send us a textThis week, we continue our Rebels With A Cause theme, with the added shake-up that the film must include a surprise cameo. And so, we watch the horror movie that rebelled against all of the usual tropes of its genre by being self-aware: 1996's "Scream" directed by Wes Craven and starring Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, David Arquette and Matthew Lillard.... with not one, but THREE cameos. We also dive into "Randy's Horror Rules," as well as explore different themes in horror throughout the last century of filmmaking. So, instead of getting drunk, announcing "I'll be right back," and heading into that desolate basement alone while a murderer is on the loose, come listen to our podcast instead; it's a killer episode!
¡Bonus KruegerCast!

Upon robbing the home of his landlords, Fool notices there are unusual men being kept under the stairs in the basement floor. He also discovers a young girl named, Alice in the home as he attempts to escape from under the noses of his landlords.The People Under the Stairs is a hidden gem from Wes Craven and a movie that sometimes feels over the top in all the right ways. Everett McGill and Wendy Robie stand out as the landlords who are constantly chasing Fool throughout the movie and continue to raise the meter on how evil they can be. This is also not to mention that they are capturing and keeping people in their basement in a sectioned area under the stairs. This is a nice kickoff to Wes Craven month and a movie that is enjoyable to watch each time it's on.

What do you get when you ask Wes Craven, creator of 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' and 'Scream', to break away from his gory horror roots and direct a dark sci-fi thriller? You get test audiences who are so disappointed in the lack of violence in the movie that you then get him to do a bunch of reshoots that add in heaps of gory horror scenes! But what do you get when those new graphic reshoots are too graphic for censors, so you have to cut a bunch of it out? You get the movie 'Deadly Friend' from 1986!Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

1, 2, Freddy's coming for you… again! We're diving deep into the controversial 2010 remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for its (almost unbelievable) 15th anniversary! Was Samuel Bayer's vision truly a nightmare, or an unfairly maligned attempt to resurrect the horror icon created by Wes Craven? We dissect the script rewrites from Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, Jackie Earle Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and the performances of Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker, and Kellan Lutz. Joining in for this discussion after a long absence is our boy Donnie (@thedonnierequel on Instagram), who was one of the first guests of Back To The Blockbuster who helped turn it into what it is today. It's a dream having him back but is this remake a nightmare worthy of horror praise or is it a bad dream we'd all like to forget?

Send us a textIn the chaos of combat, what truly matters isn't the mission, but the harrowing moments that forever bind soldiers together. "Warfare," the latest from filmmaking duo Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza, strips away conventional war movie tropes to deliver something far more visceral and authentic.Based on Mendoza's actual experiences as a Navy SEAL during the Iraq War, this relentlessly tense 96-minute thriller drops viewers into the middle of a mission gone catastrophically wrong. When two platoons become trapped in a hostile urban environment, what follows is a masterclass in sustained tension and raw emotional devastation. Unlike traditional war films that provide character backgrounds or political context, "Warfare" deliberately avoids explaining why these soldiers are fighting—it simply shows, with unflinching clarity, what happens when young men face the brutal realities of combat.The film's exceptional sound design, crafted by Garland's longtime collaborator Glenn Freemantle, delivers an audio experience that shifts seamlessly between the chaotic cacophony of gunfire to the muffled, disorienting aftermath of blast trauma. Will Poulter leads a remarkable ensemble cast that includes Michael Galfianakis, Kit Connor, and Charles Melton, each delivering performances that capture not just the physical demands of warfare but the psychological toll of knowing death lurks around every corner.What makes "Warfare" particularly significant is how it represents Garland's artistic resurrection following his controversial 2022 film "Men." By partnering with Mendoza and focusing on craftsmanship rather than heavy-handed metaphors, Garland has rediscovered his filmmaking voice. This transformation mirrors other celebrated director comebacks we've witnessed over the years—from Wes Craven's "Scream" renaissance to Spike Lee's triumphant return with "BlacKkKlansman."Don't miss this opportunity to experience one of the most intense and authentic war films in recent memory. "Warfare" isn't just about combat—it's about bearing witness to the moments that forever change those who serve, and the brotherhood forged in circumstances most of us will never understand.Support the show
