Hello again, friends, and welcome to our special Noirvember episode! We’ve got a double-header for you, starting with Otto Preminger’s 1944 film noir staple starring Vincent Price, Laura. If you haven’t seen Laura, you should really remedy that right now. It’s a classic, a timeless mystery tale: the lovely Laura (Gene Tierney), a woman bewitching to every […]

Whatever happened to scary movies for kids? In the early 1980s, Disney produced a string of both animated and live-action films that pushed the boundaries of the macabre in family entertainment. Movies like Return to Oz, The Black Cauldron, The Black Hole, and The Watcher in the Woods scared their young audiences alongside entertaining them, and we here at VPL […]

Hello again, monster kids! On this episode of VPL, we’re turning back the clock a bit to 2007, the year that Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino released their cult classic-informed double feature, Grindhouse.Nostalgia is kind of a weird beast, sometimes making us remember things a bit more fondly than they may deserve. It’s also tricky when […]

Greetings and salutations! Today we are delving into the mind of the prolific-yet-classically underrated director, M. Night Shyamalan. In this episode, we’re discussing his most impressive work-to-date, Split. M. Night gets a lot of grief for his “twist ending” trope, with most of the complaints saying that his movies rely heavily on that twist without providing […]

This episode is a long time coming. Over a year ago, we set out to do a show on 2015’s Poltergeist by itself. However, as we discuss in this show, it’s not exactly possible to examine a remake without the original film entering into the conversation. So we decided to put the idea of the episode on the […]

This week, we’re talking about a couple of short films. We didn’t plan on it when we discussed which ones we should include in this episode, but turns out the ones we chose have a bit of a similar theme. They both have to do with how society perceives the mentally ill. Up first is […]

Happy soon-to-be-Thanksgiving, creepazoids and monster kids! On this episode, we take a look at a hidden gem of a slasher film, 1987’s Blood Rage. Although we watch them, we’re not the biggest slasher fans. Honestly, we’d rather cozy up with a nice old fashioned ghost story or creature feature than subject ourselves to crazy gore and “kills”. […]

More than 30 years ago, power trio Tommy Lee Wallace, Debra Hill, and John Carpenter set out to change the game when it came to Halloween movies. They envisioned a franchise that would be an anthology of sorts, birthed out of the story of Michael Myers, but not limited to it. Each year a new, […]

How’s everyone’s October going? We hope it’s extra spoooooooky! For this episode, we wanted to talk about a couple of our most favorite Halloween specials. No, not the Paul Lynde Halloween Special, but that’s a close third. Friends, this week we are talking about Ghostwatch and the WNUF Halloween Special. GHOSTWATCH (1992) Held as one of the most […]

Lately we’ve been encountering a few lost souls who seem to think the horror genre didn’t start until 1970. An “old” scary movie to them is The Exorcist, or Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or Lord have mercy, even Friday the 13th. It’s probably a generational thing, and we understand that when you were born in 1997, a film from […]

On this episode, we tackle the Ariel Award-winning Spanish-language film, Kilometro 31! This film showed up on our radar a couple of years after its initial Mexican release. We saw it sometime around 2008 or 2009, and were impressed by its visual style. When we moved to the Rio Grande Valley of Texas last year, we […]

Join us this week as we tackle not one, not two, not even three films! This jam-packed episode covers The Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness, Evil Dead (2013), and Ash vs. Evil Dead. What can we say about the Evil Dead series that hasn’t already been said? The films have been discussed and re-discussed ad […]

Here we go with another two-fer, folks! The two films discussed in this episode of Vincent Price’s Laugh are remarkably similar, however retaining distinct differences. They’re both “siege” films in their own ways, both involve the confrontation of an unknown entity, and both pose pseudo-philosophical questions about the very nature of good and evil. We’re talking […]
