Ok. Listen. Luke knows that this isn't a horror movie but at least we didn't talk about it in a timeline that is itself, super dark.
Whoops.
Stick around and listen to us chat about the teeniest indie movie you ever heard about with 2017's Super Dark Times! It's got teen angst, it's got samurai swords. It's got..... milk cartons filled with water.
Thanks for sticking with us, the times may be super dark, but at least we can have some laughs.
-
We did it. We got an episode out for October. Hooray.
Here's The Mist from 2007. A movie that has a very memorable ending.
We talk about the whole dang thing, and make jokes both high and low brow. We also get to hear Alex being existential at some point. What fun.

What an honour to have the lads over at Fear Daily ask to take over my little podcast feed for a day, to share some of their cool cool content with y'all.
Fear Daily takes you into the shadows of the past, unearthing the 1990's most terrifying tales of monsters, madness, and life after death. Join us a we explore the ghost stories and supernatural encounters left on an old online bulletin board that continues to operate somewhere in an unknown part of the Pennsylvania Rust Belt - a time capsule of society's greatest fears.
Brennan Storr (host of Ghost Story Guys) and Brandon Schexnayder (host of Southern Gothic) have crafted some very fun, quick and easy bites of audio fiction that is just perfect for the Halloween season.
Give this episode a listen and then head over to Podfollow for all the episodes!
Thanks again to Fear Daily for this cool collaboration and Happy Halloween, everyone!

It's back to school for some and we're visiting the late 90s cult classic, The Faculty.
What a wild ride this movie is. From the cast (bangers across the board), to the hairstyles (hmm... some of them), to the outrageous plot. What a fun time.
Give us a listen wherever you find the show on the pod places!

Happy Friday the 13th, beautiful weirdos.
We bring you yet another entry into this wild world of Crystal Lake.... I mean Evergreen or Greenwood or whatever they're calling it these days.
Joining us, in the depths of the lake is Alex (can't get rid of him) and our very own Twilight Prince, Danae!
Welcome as we talk about the third movie to feature someone named Tommy Jarvis, and it's just as hair-metal packed as we hoped.
Listen now!

Welcome back to the last episode of our Weekly Summer specials!
We have made it through the mess that was the Twilight Saga (even Audacity didn't want to play those episodes normally) and now we're back in the calm waters of Nothing to Fear Monthly.
Luke, Alex, and I talk about 2002's Ghost Ship, a surprisingly enjoyable romp including one of the wildest opening scenes in all of horror history.
Join us, won't you? I promise all the sections line up now.
-
Oh my gosh, folks. We did it. We got to the end. *Aro laugh inserted* We have made it through the entire Twilight Saga.
2012 certainly was a time to make movies look like an Avengers film.
I'm glad you took this ride with me. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope you had as much fun as I did. As we mentioned in the show, if there are some other sagas you think the three of us should tackle or if you think Alex and Luke should have had to watch these movies or we should do some other fun films, let us know online and let us know who you think should be the reigning monarch of Team: Somebody else.
-
Folks! Grab your recently married spouses and head off to a privately owned island in Brazil because we're talking about the most horrifying movie in the Twilight Saga to date.
Not this movie touting the virtues of waiting until marriage to have sex, only to show the more horrific consequence of it. Sorry, Bella. You deserved better.
But at least we know Kristen Stewart is a wonderful queer icon nowadays. (unless she does something to get herself cancelled and then we never liked her in the first place, phew. I sure am glad no one reads the show notes.)
Anyway. Join us for this 2011 hit and see if comic book movies had ANY impact on the way this film was put together. (spoiler alert. It did).

In keeping with our discussion of the Twilight franchise, we decided to recast Billie for the third full episode. All of her lines have been re-recorded by Bryce Dallas Howard.
Just kidding. Billie is irreplaceable. Justice for Rachelle LeFevre.
We finally get the conclusion of the Victoria plot line in this movie and our hosts discuss how the vampire powers work, we learn the worst thing ever about Jasper (iykyk), and discuss what if Jacob and Edward just got together. Honestly. It would be much better for everyone.
-
Where the hell have you BEEN, loca?
Welcome back for the second movie in the Twilight Saga. We talk all about New Moon.
It's not often that you can witness a movie that is almost entirely table setting for something bigger while also having almost no plot of its own.
Either way, grab your recently restored dirt bike, head off to the cliffs by La Push and roll up in your local gang of Never Nudes because we're talking about the franchise that gave us weirdo sparkling vampires, now giving us weirdo werewolves.
Oh. And also they mention the Volturi but you don't really gotta worry about them for a while.

This is the skin of a podcaster, Bella!
If I tell you that during the recording of Twilight Summer, all of my social media feed turned into memes about this franchise, would you believe me?
Regardless of the quality of the filmography (mid), to the acting choices (so so bad), to the decisions to make so much of this seem like a weirdo metaphor for having a crush while a part of a strict religious upbringing (very cringey), you cannot deny that Twilight has cultural impact.
Much like how even if you don't like Star Wars, you know what the Force is, and you've heard of a lightsaber, everyone knows about the Sparkly vampires, even if they haven't seen the franchise.
We talk all about it, from the cultural impact, to that scene in the forest, to the greatest baseball scene in the history of cinema.
Hold on, Spider Monkeys, we're in for a wild ride.
-
Folks. I am so absolutely stoked to have you here at the start of my journey into the Twilight Saga.
This episode is a preview episode where you'll meet our hosts, Billie (you know her), Josh from the Super Scary Podcast, and Danae who is a friend of the pod (and friend in real life).
We chop it up about our experience with Twilight. Talk about some unfortunate high school portrait choices and what we think about the saga before jumping in. Tune in each week this summer for this Summer series from Nothing to Fear!
-
This movie asks the question, "Wait. Is relying on technology to do most of the things for you, a bad thing?"
We're talking about M3GAN this week, after Alex heard me rave about it back during its theatrical run in 2023.
Join us as we dip into the Psychology Corner, chat about artificial intelligence, and even touch on something called the Green Light Fallacy.
Honestly, that last one sounds like a mid tier ska band.
Enjoy the episode, everyone!

Listen to the Twilight Summer Series right here on Nothing to Fear's feed!
We're back to a weekly release schedule for the Summer and Alex and Luke are no where to be found!
Billie teams up with Josh from The Super Scary Podcast, and Danae, friend of the pod (and friend in real life), to talk about the sparkliest vampires in the Pacific Northwest.
Listen right hecking here!

Happy 4 years of Nothing to Fear!
This movie has been waiting for us to tackle it since we started the podcast, and I have to wonder, did we leave it too long?
Despite some of this movie's drawbacks, it is undeniably a seminal text for the found footage movie genre, and a master class in how movies were marketed during the infant stages of the internet.
Join us and stay tuned right to the very end where I talk about the plans for the summer of Nothing to Fear!

The trio tackles a "zombie" movie from the turn of this Century.
Let's all head to 2002 UK for 28 Days Later, a movie starring Cillian Murphy as he tries to survive in a virus-ridden London, beset by enraged infected people. This is not about Sandra Bullock going to rehab, nor is it in the same universe, and honestly. We have been robbed of that possibility.
-
Turns out the title hints to the games being a lot less funny than we thought.
Love a good media consumption metaphor from the 90s!
-
Enjoy the second instalment of the Creep Cinematic Universe! We talk the film, Mark and Jay Duplass, the Las Vegas Sphere, and so much more. Thanks for not unsubscribing to the feed so these episodes show up once in a while!
-
Happy February, dear listeners.
Please enjoy our latest outing with Creep, a 2014 found-footage movie that is equal parts funny and unsettling.
Grab your Peachfuzz masks, and meet us by the heart shaped pool!
-
Welcome to 2024 and a new year for Nothing to Fear!
We're going to start the year off by putting out the rest of the only episode we recorded in the last two months (BUSY) and wrap up our chat on the Insidious Franchise!
Enjoy all our thoughts on arguably one of the 21st Centuries most notable horror properties with Insidious: The Red Door.
Thanks for listening! That's it for show notes. Love you, mean it.
