Happy Halloween! Sorry for the late episode, we showed up in Haddonfield for another Michael Myers romp and turns out he's all the way out in California!

Join us as we discuss Chekov's dumbwaiter, food foreplay, LL Cool J's erotic fiction, and why this movie should've been the proper conclusion to the Michael-Laurie saga.

Happy Halloween! It's that time of year we we dress in costumes, pass out candy, and take to the streets to find our local masked serial killer. At least that's how Haddonfield does it. So that's how your host, Chris Donovan and his guests Megan and Julia plan to celebrate as well. On this episode we go back to a simpler time in the Halloween franchise and review 1981's Halloween 2. I can't think of anything more fun than catching up with our pals Michael Myers, Laurie, Dr. Loomis, and of course, Ben Tramer. So crank up that synth music, hop in your therapeutic tub, and join us for an episode more tasty than a razor blade apple.

It's the new year, so you know what that means? It means your ole pal Chris Donovan is a few days late on making his top ten horror movies of the past year. Don't blame me though: blame 2022, because it brought a whole lot of awesome films to the table to dig through. Between studio horror good enough to make you scream and smile, to streaming services hatching up some delicious films to prey on, to our beloved Shudder dead set on streaming up more classics, 2022 had a lot to offer. So join me as I run down my top ten horror movies of 2022!

A little while back when Megan and Julia Pendagast joined me, Chris Donovan, to talk about Ginger Snaps, we also spent a lot of time chatting about anything but. So I've decided to cobble together our sidetracks about all things horror, from Hereditary to Goosebumps, Scream to Deep Blue Sea and edit them into a fun bonus episode. I hope you get half as much enjoyment out of this episode as we did, because sidetracking with these two was a blast!

The accursed year of 2020 is over! And while the year itself was not...like good by any standard, it did provide us with a ton of amazing horror movies. So obviously, your boy Chris Donovan has to count down his favorites. Just like it's obvious he would release his list weeks after the year ended, what a scrub right? Did I include another SyFy original in my list? Is nearly half my list Shudder originals? Did I spend more time talking about the dog in Love and Monsters than the movie itself? I'll never tell. I mean...I will, but you gotta listen to the episode for the answers, I'm not going to answer them in the description. I'm trying to build suspense so you'll listen. Is it working? Anywho, join me as I count down my top ten movies of 2020.

Merry...Midsommar? It may no longer be summertime, but here in 2020, time is meaningless so Carrie and I decided to take a trip to Sweden to discover what she loves (and I don't love) about this strange cult-y movie. We're going head-to-head in an old-fashioned Ari Aster-off! We debate the finer points of this film's structure, characters, and the message its trying to convey. But also, how weird that hair pie stuff is. Will Carrie sway you into joining the cult of Midsommar fans? Or will I, Chris Donovan, convince you to say 'Nah'. Either way, by the end, I'm sure you'll have the strangest smile on your face.

After 10,000 years, I'm back! Sorry, it's only felt like 10,000 years but I, Chris Donovan, have returned from my prolonged absence and am back in the podcasting game. I am here to answer your most pressing questions. This of course is only if your most pressing question is what I thought the top ten horror movies of 2019 were. If you have another pressing question that will have to wait for another time. Did I include a movie about a pastor who becomes a dinosaur to fight ninjas? Did I actually have 11 movies because I couldn't decide between two and had to have a tie? Did I butcher some Japanese names because I couldn't find videos of their names being said but still wanted to praise their movie? Yes, yes, and unfortunately yes. So join me as I count down the (in my opinion) top ten horror movies of 2019.

Happy New Year! Before we break forward into the new year of 2019 with our hopes and dreams in full bloom, come with me, Chris Donovan, as I look back on the past year in horror and tell you which films warmed my heart the most. Because even though the year might've been rough, we at least had some top-notch horror along the way. Did I have the audacity to put a SyFy original movie in my Top 10? Do I have some controversial things to say about one of the biggest horror movies of the year? Did I put a crime thriller in my Top 10 and say 'whatever, close enough to horror for me?' Yes, yes, and yes I did. So join me as I fly solo to give you guys my ten favorite horror movies of the year.

Happy Halloween!! What? You're saying that it's actually November 13th? Well it's still Halloween in my heart. But for real, your lovely, apologetic, and constantly procrastinating host, Chris Donovan is finally here to discuss the new Halloween film that came out a month ago. He's joined by his buddies Justin Beaucage and Ryan Spooner to talk about and they will take a bite out of this movie like an apple with a razor blade in it. Which one of us was disappointed by the film? Which one is a novice to the Halloween game? And which one of us has developed a crackpot theory about the making of this film? (Spoiler: that last one is me, Chris Donovan). So crack open that last bag of candy corn and listen to us dive into the biggest movie of the fall: Halloween. Not the Rob Zombie one...or the original one...the third movie to be called Halloween.
Also I'm sorry about the delay, real life got in the way of me getting an episode out to you in time for Halloween. Also apologies to the podcasters in this movie because I ragged on them for not making time sensitive content and here I am uploading a Halloween review on November 13th. I'm a fool in man's shoes.

Welcome to Hell! Chris Donovan is back with another quick hit review this time talking about the brand new horror film, Hell Fest. Chris is a sucker for slashers but how does Hell Fest stack up. Well if you think Chris fell for this film's slick design, lovely camera work, and fun cast of characters...then you're right. I really enjoyed this film. So come on, grab your VIP pass, grab your significant other, and join me in line as we wait to get into the haunted house attraction of the season: Hell Fest.
