This week on Streamin’ Demons, Jo and Amelie dig into Bonekeeper, the cave horror film from writer-director Howard J. Ford. A group heads into a remote cave system looking for a missing woman and quickly ends up in full creature-feature territory.
The cave setting works, the claustrophobia lands, and the movie gets a big boost from John Rhys-Davies showing up and giving the whole thing some real weight. Jo and Amelie also get into the messier side of it, especially the weak group setup, the questionable “these people are friends” claim, and all the dumb cave decisions that would get people killed even without a monster involved.
It’s flawed, patchy in places, and the creature work could have been stronger, but the pacing moves, the atmosphere works, and both Jo and Amelie agree it’s still a solid, entertaining horror watch.

Key Moments
Opening chaos – Jo and Amelie introduce Bonekeeper and immediately start side-eyeing IMDb’s description of the group as “six young friends.”
Character confusion – The hosts try to figure out who these people actually are, how they know each other, and why they’re the ones investigating a missing person.
John Rhys-Davies surprise – Jo realizes the professor is John Rhys-Davies and spends a good chunk of the movie delighted that he’s actually in it for more than a throwaway cameo.
Cave logic breakdown – Jo and Amelie tear into the group’s survival decisions, from splitting up to leaving people behind in a pitch-black cave.
Creature effect debate – The monster works better as an idea than as a visual, and Jo argues practical effects would have helped a lot.
Final verdict – Bonekeeper is messy but entertaining, with strong atmosphere, solid pacing, and enough cave horror tension to make it worth watching.

KEY MOMENTS Opening chaos – Jo introduces Charlotte as the “London correspondent” who attended the press screening. Scratch-and-sniff cinema – The wild theatre gimmick where audiences smelled scenes during the movie.

The theatre question – Charlotte debates whether the film works better as a cinema experience or a quirky late-night TV watch. Theme kicker – A low-budget, eccentric indie that proves creativity can carry a film even when the resources are tiny.Dead Lover will be available in UK Cinemas (in glorious STINK-O-VISION!) from 20th March
A lonely gravedigger who stinks of corpses finally meets her dream man, but their whirlwind affair is cut short when he tragically drowns at sea. Grief-stricken, she goes to morbid lengths to resurrect him through madcap experiments.

This week on Streamin’ Demons, Jo and Amelie take a look at the 2022 indie horror film Anacoreta. The movie follows a group of filmmakers heading out to a remote cabin in the woods to shoot an experimental horror project, but as the cameras keep rolling the situation slowly starts to unravel.
The acting is surprisingly strong, especially considering the cast is often playing actors inside the film itself. Jo and Amelie talk about how that works in the movie’s favor early on, along with the solid atmosphere and setup. But once the story hits the third act, the logic starts to slip and the tension that was building begins to fall apart.
Along the way the hosts also get into a debate about how people react to danger in the woods. Amelie’s instinct is to call out to a stranger and figure out who they are. Jo’s instinct is much simpler: get in the truck and leave.
Is Anacoreta worth checking out? Jo and Amelie break down what works, what doesn’t, and why the film ends up being a mix of solid ideas and frustrating decisions.

KEY MOMENTSOpening riff – Jo kicks things off joking about reviewing a “new” movie from 2022 that they couldn’t talk about until now.
The premise – A group of filmmakers head to a remote cabin to shoot an experimental horror movie… and things slowly start unraveling.
Acting inside acting – The cast pulls off the tricky job of playing actors making a movie, shifting between intentionally bad acting and real performances.
Jo’s take – The first two acts work well, but once the movie hits Act 3 the internal logic falls apart and the tension drops.
Cultural clash moment – Jo and Amelie debate what they’d actually do if they saw a stranger who was stalking them in the dark in the woods. Amelie would call out and talk. Jo’s response: get in the truck and leave.
Location oddity – The “abandoned” cabin somehow has perfectly maintained flowers, which becomes one of the episode’s running jokes.
Final verdict – There’s real talent here from the filmmakers, but the third act keeps the movie from landing as well as it could.

Paradise on Hulu gets the Streamin’ Demons deep dive. Jo & Amelie unpack the wild extinction-level event reveal, Sterling K. Brown's gripping lead as agent Xavier, James Marsden's president flashbacks, and why this smart sci-fi thriller feels so grounded and human despite the bunker world. A killer first-episode hook that had us hooked—perfect binge if you love mystery with heart.
Key Moments:
Opening chaos – Jo kicks off with the usual chaos, allergies, sickness blame game, and that deep 15-year friendship telepathy riff (hummus sync!).
Main plot or twist – The massive premiere reveal: what looks like a normal day turns into post-apocalypse bunker life after an extinction event, president murdered, total game-changer.
Character study – Sterling K. Brown shines as the dedicated agent/single dad Xavier—fit, intense, relatable struggles; James Marsden nails the charismatic president in flashbacks.
Jo’s big take – Thought it was some neighbor drama at first, blown away by the smart sci-fi that doesn't shove tech in your face, more thriller/mystery with real human connections (loved not recognizing faces for immersion).
Amelie’s reflection – Praises the grounded, sober approach—like Black Mirror or Battlestar Galactica, everyday problems in extreme settings, character depth, no over-info overload, hooks you right from episode one.
WTF moment – That late-episode jazz-hands twist flips everything you thought you knew, leaving you desperate for more.

Solid pick, Amelie—went from "meh screener week" to this hidden gem (well, not so hidden with those Emmy noms and buzz). The human stuff hits hard, the twist lands perfectly, and yeah, Sterling looks way too good for any of us. Go stream Paradise on Hulu/Disney+ if you haven't—worth the ride. Peace out!

Jo & Amelie dive into the slow-burn psychological thriller, unpacking marriage tests, experimental trauma treatments, nudity debates, European vs. American views on love, and those eerie ear-bleeding jumps. A perfect twisted Valentine’s watch with real emotional weight.
KEY MOMENTS
Opening chaos – Jo skips the Super Bowl for this instead, calls out slow-burn burnout from prior films but praises the purposeful build. Main plot twist buildup – Diana’s memory loss and the remote facility’s “treatments” ramp up, revealing dark marriage truths and identity questions—who are we without our past? Character study – Homer’s shifting likability (loving yet super weird/annoying) vs. Diana’s intellectual, honest vibe; parallels in paired relationships (husband-wife, father-daughter) add layers. Jo’s big take – Riffs on full-frontal nudity casting calls, compares to Game of Thrones old-dude scenes, and questions American prudishness vs. European normalcy around bodies. Amelie’s reflection – Loves the 60s/70s aesthetic, golden lighting, philosophical love talks (no forced “I love you”s), and real-world tie to exhausting Valentine’s days with butter chicken and relaxation turning intense. WTF moment – That random ear-bleeding scare jumps Amelie hard; no monsters, just raw, realistic horror that makes you worry for the characters.Check out more chaos and deep dives at https://linktr.ee/Emptyhell

Jo’s big take – Thrilled by the updated-but-classic hand-drawn style, voice cast nostalgia (Eric Bauza, Candi Milo, Carlos Alazraqui), and how it feels like childhood + adult brain at the same time
Amelie’s reflection – Loves the timeless Tex Avery-style humor mixed with modern touches; appreciates the smart, layered jokes that hit different for kids vs adults (and yes, some French-kissing-level cheekiness)

In this haunting episode of Streamin’ Demons, Jo and Amelie dive deep into Mother of Flies (2025), the stunning folk horror from the Adams Family (John, Zelda, and Toby Poser). A young woman facing a terminal diagnosis turns to a mysterious witch in the woods for a cure that comes with a terrifying cost. Expect breathtaking cinematography, raw natural performances, poetic dialogue, and unflinching conversations about death, grief, and acceptance. Amelie shares why she loves how the film handles mortality in a real, non-Hollywood way—and even opens up about her own “dream death” plans, from prepaid cremation to birthday cake celebrations with loved ones. Jo praises the practical effects, zero exposition, and how it’s both creepy and beautiful. If you’re into slow-burn folk horror, body horror, or movies that actually make you think about dying, this is a must-watch on Shudder. Watch it twice—the layers hit harder the second time.

KEY MOMENTS
Opening chaos – Jo in a hoodie, happy new year vibes, and immediate confusion about when this episode even drops Amelie’s big hook – Why she picked Mother of Flies despite hating the trailer: real, natural death instead of sexy Hollywood horror Emotional gut punch – The father-daughter forest conversation about suicide, grief, and what happens after death (no spoilers, just tears) Jo’s take – “It’s not a boring slog fest… I was hooked after the first act” + jealousy over the Adams family making movies together Amelie’s reflection – Her personal “dream death” plans: prepaid cremation, beautiful urn, no open casket, and annual birthday cake celebrations with loved ones WTF moment – The flies scene (is it CGI or real?!) and the poetic, disgusting beauty of the body horror Theme kicker – Nature as a character, zero exposition, real faces with wrinkles, and why this film is better than a lot of big-budget horror -
Here we go, fresh off the demons' lair—Season 5 kicks off with a bang! Jo and Amelie tear into this brand-new indie horror gem, I Know Exactly How You Die (world premiere vibes hitting theaters/festivals right around now, like that Dances with Films NYC drop). It's a tight, meta slasher-mystery mashup where a struggling writer's words start bleeding into reality in a creepy, isolated hotel. Think Stranger Than Fiction crashes into Scream, but with way more "don't call the cops" energy and some killer hotel sensory throwbacks.
I Know Exactly How You Die gets the full Streamin’ Demons roast. Jo & Amelie dive into the meta slasher premise, hotel vibes that hit too close to home (Amelie's real-life stories!), character logic fails, and why Katie steals the show. A solid indie horror watch with great acting and pacing—perfect for fans of hotel-set scares.
Key Moments:
Opening chaos – Jo's wild New Year energy + Season 5 hype, immediate dive into the premise with Amelie's enthusiastic yes-nods. Main plot or twist – The core hook: writer's manuscript manifests real murders in the hotel; meta "Stranger Than Fiction" meets slasher stalking, spelled out clearly so no one's lost. Character study – Katie (the real protagonist) carries the emotional weight while writer Ryan's a flawed, unlikeable dick who keeps writing despite the deaths—Jo calls it out hard. Jo’s big take – Loves the small cast working in a believable hotel setting, praises acting/direction/music, but rages on horror tropes like "never call the cops" and dumb decisions that almost tank it. Amelie’s reflection – Hotel life flashbacks galore (sensory triggers, shady guests, ex-prostitution stories, privacy demands); ties her real background to the film's isolated, sketchy motel feel—personal and poignant. WTF moment – Mom finds out kid's dead and just... stands there? No rush to the room, no immediate 911—both scream "CALL THE POLICE" at the screen repeatedly.We are Amazon Affiliates—if we drop an Amazon link anywhere and you click through or buy, we do get a little kickback, no extra cost to you.

Dawn of the Dogman gets the full Streamin’ Demons treatment! Jo (Wisconsin native) and Amelie (French folklore queen) unpack Seth Breedlove’s gripping new documentary on the legendary Michigan Dogman—eyewitness stories, historical roots, and a heartfelt tribute to the late Linda Godfrey.

The movie that broke Amelie's internet (not in the good way) Jo and Amelie dive into the fresh-out-the-mud 2025 horror Pig Hill starring Shane West—and as far as Jo & Amelie can tell, the movie is secretly about Big Dick Pigs terrorizing a town of exactly seven supermodels.

Ritual House 2025 gets the Streamin’ Demons treatment as Jo and Amelie unleash a wild rant! As our hero Jo battles a Tony Horton diet—Golden Child style--Amelie chows a 32-centimeter pizza, gyros, and Coke right in front!
The movie follows two friends turning a debt-ridden inherited house into a haunted bed-and-breakfast. The premise? Solid—40-something women tackling loss and finance. The acting? A disaster! Jo dubs it “third-grade play” territory, while Amelie finds it hilariously offbeat. Crystal’s stalker subplot with Bob confuses—creepy or comic? Jo sees an incel vibe, Amelie a quirky twist.
The chaos peaks with a plushie “dead cat” sporting a price tag, fake eyelashes in the shower, and death scenes sounding like diarrhea—pure unintentional laughs! Jo’s hunger fueled rants on pacing and repeated flashbacks, while Amelie dreams of her own B&B, mirroring the plot. They clash: Jo rejects it, slamming IMDb’s typos and “award of recognition” hype, while Amelie values the story’s heart. This episode’s a shoutfest of diet drama, horror flops, and personal takes—Jo teases Amelie’s feast, both mock tropes like a Ring-style TV creature. Check it out at https://linktr.ee/Emptyhell!

Jo’s big take – Jo calls out the film’s “third-grade play” vibe, craving a better horror twist. Amelie’s reflection – Amelie loves the real-life debt-to-B&B idea but mourns the lost tension. WTF moment – A plushie “dead cat” and fake eyelashes in the shower steal the show! -
