Every Horror Movie On Netflix

This week we explore the secret Vatican archives and learn about the haunting case of Angela, a young woman possessed by dark forces whose compulsion to crash cars and talk to birds results in her putting her life in the hands of the faith-based healthcare system. In our horror catchup we also touch on THE HOLE IN THE GROUND, PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN, SHIRLEY, and the documentary DEMON LOVER DIARY.

This week we hop in the wayback machine to April 2013, when all you had to do to make a funny movie was cast Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan as themselves. That's right, we've watched SCARY MOVIE V and we're together to decipher its dated pop culture references, challenge its cultural representations, and reminisce on some of our great movie-theater-going experiences from the before times.

This week, we celebrate a very important milestone: our 100th episode! Can you believe it? But instead of resting on our laurels we're getting right back to business— reviewing the 1988 camp classic "Killer Klowns from Outer Space." We also go on a few tangents about Joko Anwar (again), gay Captain America, the X-Men, James Wan's masterpiece "Dead Silence," and we look ahead to self-cancelling for our 101st episode.

This week, we choose to go to the moon not once but twice! First, Patrick and Chris discuss the 1995 blockbuster APOLLO 13, which set the standard for lunar disaster movies. Then, we watch APOLLO 18, the 2011 horror movie about the secret final moon mission... and why we never went back. But that's not all! We also chat about USC's horror webinar series, Joko Anwar, TOURIST TRAP (1979), Ken Russell's THE DEVILS, COHERENCE, S. Craig Zahler, the career of Gary Sinise, the presidential alien, and how to hunt for meteorites in the wilderness of Western Canada. It's an episode that is truly out of this world in more ways than one.

On this week's episode, we review AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS, a movie that imagines what would happen if your relatives slowly became more deranged due to messages on their television set. We also briefly talk about the slasher classic "My Bloody Valentine," the horror novel "Goth" by Otsuichi, and the 1978 abduction of filmmaker Shin Sang-ok by North Korea.

Can you imagine being trapped in your apartment alone while a killer virus ravages your country? That's the far-fetched premise of #ALIVE, the latest zombie thriller from South Korea, in which unlikely hero Joon-Woo must not only navigate an infested apartment block, but also cyberspace, the friend-zone, the instant-noodle zone, the threatening-neighbor zone, the mountaineering-equipment space, and the voice-mail zone... posting through it all the way.

This week the gang tours the dewey forests of Washington state for a spooky, fantastic adventure with Daniel Radcliffe— eat your heart out, Robert Pattinson! It's HORNS, adapted from the Joe Hill novel of the same name. After Ig Perrish is blamed for his girlfriend Merrin's heinous murder, he magically sprouts demon horns and sets off to clear his name. Join us as we solve the murder mystery and plenty of other mysteries along the way.

This week the gang logs on for the cyber-thriller UNFRIENDED, in which a group of teenage cyber-friends match wits with the cyber-ghost of the girl they cyber-bullied one cyber-year prior. Plus: we'll talk about some our own cyber-exploits and report from the Todd McFarlane beat with a bit of new Spawn non-news.

This week we reflect on a year of real-life horror and how our relationships to the show and to media changed in 2020. Per tradition, we hand out awards to our favorite (and least favorite) Netflix movies and other horror discoveries, and bestow the coveted Spirit of Jai Award to three worthy Netflix horror characters.

It's amazing what a mirror can do to a space: it can add texture, light, depth, or— if you get the mirror from a junk pile outside a haunted house-- it can add mythical child-snatching witches to your home. That's what happens in KUNTILANAK, the 2018 reboot of director Rizal Mantovani's long-running Indonesian horror franchise. Join us as we get into the details and question the movie's tonal and music scoring choices.

This week, we go out for a nice dinner and explore the depths of human desperation and depravity in WOULD YOU RATHER, which may be the best film about grueling decisions involving life, death, and disfigurement that doesn't involve a clown puppet on a tricycle. Join us as we talk about the film, what it may mean politically, and get to know your hosts a little better as we play our own game of "Would You Rather!"

This week for Thanksgiving, the gang pays a visit to cinema's favorite culinary villain in RED DRAGON, the third film in the Hannibal Lecter series. We'll discuss the film's efficacy as a procedural thriller, the 90s/2000s wave of forensic investigation dramas, and how this movie relates to The Silence of the Lambs. We'll also touch on the myriad other interpretations of the sordid tale of Francis Dolarhyde: the man who turned a cleft lip and an abusive grandmother into a successful career of home-invading, film-developing, wheelchair-burning, and painting-eating.

This week the gang gets into the Halloween spirit with Adam Sandler and all of his famous friends: it's time for HUBIE HALLOWEEN, the Netflix-original holiday comedy that has taken the world by storm. Join us as we sit back, try to relax, laugh twice, and contemplate the Sandman's career, Patrick's childhood, the charm of Salem, Massachusetts, and the mysterious identity of the Hubie Halloween maniac.

Happy Halloween! We did it: we watched all nine Nightmare on Elm Street movies and in this special holiday episode we review each and every one of them with the help of our friend Rowan from It Slays Podcast. Don't fall asleep!

This week the gang heads to Peru to find an ancestral Ouija board, a kooky set of overly friendly neighbors, and a son that won't speak. It's SINISTER CIRCLE, a Spanish-language spookshow set against the backdrop of previous movie that none of us had seen. What happened to grandma? Who's hiding under the bed? And is investigative journalism still alive? Join us to find out.
