We scroll through propstoreauction.com and find our dream items to bid on. One of them may or not be an item from the 1999 film Virus.

We promise you that this is the only trailer breakdown that also gives thoughts on the later seasons of the X-Files.

We are talking about two of our childhood favorite Halloween season watches and a whole bunch of other stuff. But yeah, it's mostly other stuff like whether Indiana has swamps, old K-Mart Halloween advertisements, and we play a game called Is this a Goosebumps book or is it a movie on Tubi? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Willie watched Weapons and was also forced to wield one. Find out his thoughts on the movie (non-spoilery), whether he's more or less excited for Cregger's Resident Evil, and if his Amazon products at home are scarier than anything in the film. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We are heading to New York, then to Rome, then to New York again to check in on maybe the laziest of the Three Mothers as we continue or trek into cozy Italian horror with Dario Argento's Inferno!And while we didn't announce what we are watching on the next episode, we are going to be talking about Goosebumps (The show): The Haunted Mask and Garfields Halloween Adventure.

We are kicking off our Fall series focused on the Godfathers of Italian horror by leaving our children alone in the Italian wilderness so we can skinny-dip, obsess over insects, and try to score some sweet sweet cash. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The boys hop in the Time Machine and head back to the mid-80s to go month-by-month through two very important years (for them at least) as they try to determine which movies they are plopping down their hard-earned cocaine-dusted cash for.

The Boys are finishing out their summer series by heading to Florida, and then to the Amazon, and then back to Florida, and then I think to California?

We also talk about the latest set photos from Crystal Lake and Erykah Badu's "Tyrone" before the film discussion, so skip ahead 15 or so minutes to about the time we are talking about Jack White punching the lead singer of the Von Bondies in the early 2000s and then you should be good.
