Happy New Year, folks. This week on the podcast, Maryland Phil and Joe KW join me to kick things off as we introduce this year’s theme: Remakes vs. Originals. In this episode, we explore the art of remaking horror classics, examining what makes these films unique, why filmmakers revisit them, and whether they truly add value to their franchises. From remakes that surpassed their originals to those that should have been left untouched, we discuss hidden gems, box-office disasters, and the remakes chosen by our Instagram followers. Tune in for our exploration of some of horror’s most hotly debated topics.

Horror originals are celebrated for their raw creativity, societal relevance, and groundbreaking innovations. They introduce iconic characters and settings that shape the genre, such as Halloween from 1978 and A Nightmare on Elm Street from 1984. In contrast, horror remakes modernize these classics, blending nostalgia with fresh perspectives, like Thirteen Ghosts from 2001 and The Ring from 2002, which adapt themes and visuals to contemporary fears. Together, originals and remakes showcase horror's enduring ability to evolve, resonate with audiences, and remain culturally impactful across generations.

What’s up, everybody, and welcome back. This week on the podcast, my co-host from the Colompton Beer Club, Thor Bentley, joins me as we dive into the 2022 slasher Bitch Ass, a film that blends classic horror tropes with innovative storytelling and cultural depth. We explore how Bitch Ass pays homage to iconic slashers like Halloween and Texas Chainsaw Massacre while introducing fresh twists like morality-based traps, a humanized villain, and a visually stunning neon-lit aesthetic.

Join us as we unpack the film’s exploration of systemic inequities, urban survival, and the psychological terror of facing one’s flaws. We’ll also compare Bitch Ass to horror classics like Candyman and Saw, discussing its impact on representation and the evolution of the genre.

Whether you’re a slasher fanatic or a fan of culturally rich horror, this episode will leave you with a newfound appreciation for Bitch Ass and its unique place in modern horror. Tune in, and let’s play some games.

What's up, you creepy fools? This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Sarah Beth, Bobby Skullface, Mrs. Skullface, and Jaina as we dive into the legacy of one of the most iconic horror films ever, The Exorcist. From the groundbreaking story of demonic possession to the film's chilling on-set accidents, mysterious deaths, and long-lasting impact, this episode explores the infamous "cursed film" theory that has haunted the production and its legacy for decades.

We'll unravel strange set mishaps like unexplained fires, cast injuries, and the tragic fates of those involved while debating whether these events were coincidences or evidence of something darker. Did the film's intense themes invite sinister forces, or were the tales of its curse amplified by media and cultural fears?

Tune in as we dissect the myths, analyze the facts, and debate whether The Exorcist's legacy is rooted in real supernatural phenomena or Hollywood's love for a good scare.
