What happens when you take House of Wax and go back 100 years? You get this movie. A travelling troupe of performers are asked to perform for Count Drago, a very heavily makeup riddled Christopher Lee, who is not nearly as makeup covered as Donald Sutherland who pulls Eddie Murphy duty and plays 3 roles. But this movie made such an impact on him, it's where he got the name for his son Kiefer. Glad he had fun. We did not.

Say what you want about Slay Belles but at least it had a discernible plot. This is an arthouse film with a silent SH. It's about aliens...or demons, or creatures...and they're here now and maybe they can be killed or they just leave before the host dies? who knows? It's the last film review of the year but not the last episode. There's still 2 more of those.

We continue the Fall of the Queens as we take a fall cruise to tour a real life ship that has a history of haunting. The movie we watched could have benefited from being more than one movie, rather than jamming too many interesting plots into a Brundlefly storyline. But we have a lot of fun talking about it, so join us!There is so much wrong with this we cant even address it all in a decent time. what did YOU find wrong with this movie?

The Fall of the Queens continues as we cover the Queen of the Damned. The film that Anne Rice didn't want made, then loved everything about it while it was being made, and then didn't want seen or discussed in her presence after it was released. At least you can say this movie has not aged poorly, because it couldn't be more hated and mocked now than it was on release! but a regular episode just isn't enough. We go into overtime tearing this movie apart. After praising its good parts of course. also Mike has is streaming horror games. do check it on our Twitch.

This month of November we celebrate the fall season. And royalty. So we are celebrating horror movies with Queen in the title, in the Fall of the Queens. Since it's a new month we decided to cover Fear Street again. What? Did we not cover the trilogy already? Whats this other movie about? Glad you asked. It's a brand new Fear Street movie! not quite connected to the original trilogy, but also kinda, this is based on another novel of R.L Stine but not written or directed by Leigh Janiak. And it shows. If you've seen 80s prom queen slashers, you've seen this. But if you've heard the episodes we covered prom queen horrors on, you have NOT heard this episode. So stay and listen.

We broke tradition with our original theme, and got a movie that does have a dressed up killer but not a trick or treat to be seen. We dig in our heels to see some good movies, after last weeks debacle, so here we go, with a GOOD movie. We take on the Fear Street Trilogy and start in 1994 where the anachronisms flow like water, but we still have a blast. Enjoy our celebration of a fine film!

We end our Back to School marathon with Urban Legend, where the curriculum is Modern Folklore and the homework is murder. This is another 90's slasher filled with sexy people mocking modern tropes while the writers treat physics like suggestion and the internet like magic.

Class is starting to wear on us as we eagerly await graduation day. what makes the waiting even harder is "The House of Sorority Row" a tepid movie that clearly needed a second draft. This rips off Diabolique and Halloween and Friday the 13th and lacks all their charm and gore. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months.

Ah September. When parents celebrate the return of school so they can get free babysitting and hopefully make their little spawn a little smarter at the same time. At least the ones that survive the ordeal. Which brings us once again, Back To School. From the Fearleaders to the Class Corpse, it's all a popularity contest and we will be seeing who makes it to graduation over the next month. This weeks entry is All Cheerleaders Die, a movie that has more trouble defining itself than a schizophrenic octopus. We have yet another sample of the Graveyard Channel, our patreon exclusive series. if you like it and want to hear the rest of the episode, support the show and gain access to exclusive content while gaining exclusive access to episodes and determining what we review next!We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months.
