Movies discussed: The Toxic Avenger (remake), Dust Bunny, Queens of the Dead, The Rug (short) This episode features three reality-adjacent flicks, each with a very particular vision. We all love the lush & feverish Dust Bunny and the intentionally low-rent new Toxic Avenger, while Queens of the Dead gets mixed reviews. Next episode’s assignments:   Ki ki ki ah ah ah . . . Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter Friday the 13th: A New Beginning Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives Avoid Asking (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.         Ki ki ki ah ah ah . . .

Movies discussed: Friday the 13th (again!), Friday the 13th Part 2 (again!), Friday the 13th Part III (again!), Playing God (short) Hey Hot Doggies! Hope y’all had a good holiday season! We extended ours a little – sorry for the wait. This time we’re digging back into Friday the 13th, and finding they’re better than the culture remembers them to be. We had conflated a lot of the F13 knockoffs with the originals. It’s fascinating! Also, one of the best shorts we’ve seen in a long while. Ki ki ki ah ah ah . . . Queens of the Dead Dust Bunny The Toxic Avenger (remake) The Rug (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode. Ki ki ki ah ah ah . . .

Movies discussed: Influencers, Necropolis, I Madman, Irradiated (short) Hey Hoy Doggies! This is likely our last show of 2025, so we’re celebrating by doing the same thing we always do. This time we all fall under the sway of Influencers, but have to debate the relative merits of low-budget 80s flicks Necropolis and I, Madman (Matt’s wrong as usual, but he’s so dang cute we’ll keep him). Happy listening, joyous holidays, and we’ll chat atcha soon. Next episodes assignments: Friday the 13th (again) Friday the 13th Part 2 (again) Friday the 13th Part III (again) Playing God (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Rounding, Dangerous Animals, Monster Island, Sit Back (short) Hey Hot Doggies, sorry we were gone so long – the film festival ate all of our free time and most of Matt’s sanity. But we’re back! This time we dig Monster Island, like parts of Dangerous Animals, and think Rounding is a great pilot for a medical drama but not much else. Next episodes assignments: It’s What’s Inside V/H/S Halloween Good Boy Howl at the Dead (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode. The post Episode 506 – Simpsonsing It Up on One Hand appeared first on Horror Show Hot Dog.

Movies discussed: Ziam, Best Wishes to All, Venus, Mr. Static This time we dig the martial artist vs. zombies flick Ziam, agree that Venus is too much of a good thing (or maybe too many different good things?), and 2/3rds of us think Best Wishes to All is great.

Movies discussed: Frewaka, The Surrender, 28 Years Later, Roger is a Serial Killer (short) We called an audible on Bring Her Back (left the multiplex too fast) and did 28 Years Later instead. We liked… parts of it! And some of us liked Surrender! At least we all agree that Fréwaka is a somber Irish masterpiece. Next episodes assignments: The Grapes of Death Ash Night Call Storm (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Final Destination Bloodlines, The Ugly Stepsister, The Damned (2024), Transfigure (short) You know we’re not great at celebrating milestones, but 500 episodes is special. So we pull out all the stops by reviewing three great movies: Final Destination Budlimes, The Damned, and Ugly Stepsister. Whether you’ve been with us for all 500 episodes or this is your first (or anywhere in between), thanks so much for listening. We would probably do this without you, but it would be even less pointful. Much love! Next episodes assignments: Bring Her Back Frewaka The Surrender Roger is a Serial Killer (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Sinners, Dead Mail, It Feeds, quiet apocalypse (short) This week we gush over Sinners, dig Dead Mail’s retro weirdness, and agree It Feeds defines “solid.” Next episodes assignments: The Ugly Stepsister The Damned Final Destination: Bloodlines Transfigure (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode. The post Episode 499 – The Power of Boop appeared first on Horror Show Hot Dog.

Movies discussed: The Rule of Jenny Pen, Dead Talents Society, 825 Forest Road, Pentatarmex Rabitular (short) As we close in on our 500th episode, we’re determined to… keep doing the thing we always do.

The post Episode 498 – A Puppet Cannot Grow appeared first on Horror Show Hot Dog.

Movies discussed: Without Name, Death of a Unicorn, Revelations, Pleasant Inn (short) We’re back and in rare form! Okay, no, the usual form. This time we enjoyed Death of a Unicorn despite its uneven tone, found Without Name a little *too* somber of an Irish thing, and saw glory with Revelations. Next episodes assignments: 825 Forest Road The Rule of Jenny Pen Dead Talents Society Pentatarmex Rabitular (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode. The post Episode 497 – Hoopty Church and the Neon Cross appeared first on Horror Show Hot Dog.

Movies discussed: Heretic, Property, Starve Acre, Shut the Door at 10:04 (short) This time we find our faith in Heretic is justified, but Starve Acre is too much folk and not enough horror. Thankfully, Property rounds out the bunch as the feel-bad hit of the summer. Next episodes assignments: Without Name Death of a Unicorn Revelations Pleasant Inn (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode. The post Episode 496 – Two Rabbits Hellraisering appeared first on Horror Show Hot Dog.

Movies discussed: The Birthday, The Monkey, Nightsiren, Mop (short) This time around we have a blast with The Monkey, ponder whether general unpleasantness counts as horror with Nightsiren, and aren’t sure we should have RSVP’d to The Birthday. Next episodes assignments: Starve Acre Heretic Property Shut the Door at 10:04 (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.
