Send a text Eric and Neil head back to the land of the holiday themed slasher movie. We talk about, My Bloody Valentine from 1981. It's a fun early 80's romp, with a small town Canadian feel. 1981 was truly the slasher heyday. Grab a Moosehead beer and join us!

Send a text Eric and Neil brave the awfulness of the only movie that Stephen King ever directed. The explosions and stunts are fun, but the plot is terrible and suspense and scares are severely lacking. Grab your rocket launcher and join us!
Send a text Eric, Neil and David keep the horror fest going beyond the holiday. We talk about the sequel to the "reboot", Halloween Kills. A movie that lives up to it's title. While it might not be the most intelligent of the series, it is one of the most fun and gory of them all. Evil Dies tonight! Join Us!
