The Scare Value Boys try something new! This week Pete and Bryan sit down to talk about all things Halloween. The movie franchise...not the holiday.

How will the ranking shake out? Click play to find out. Check out our stuff on https://scarevalue.com
The Scare Value Boys return to Indonesia (really not really this time) to watch the sequel to Satan's Slaves. It's a first time watch for one of them...you can probably guess which one. He also can't remember anything about it despite watching it very recently. Now you definitely know which one. What will they think of Joko Anwar's continuing Satan's Slave story? Come for the answer...stay for the roleplay segment between pedophile and kid. Yeah. You read that right. You'll be surprised how naturally that idea manifests itself. Check out our stuff on https://scarevalue.com

This year we watch it side by side with Pete's preferred entry in the series...The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. It's a dual screen watch-along! Will this finally convince Pete that Tobe Hooper's original is great? Or will he get swept up in the comedic moments of Hooper's 12 years later sequel...forcing them to try something new next year (and for the rest of their lives)? You can watch both movies, one movie, or neither movie along with us. Just click play and enjoy the ride. Check out our stuff on https://scarevalue.com

With this year's Spooky Season Spectacular postponed for a week the Scare Value boys discuss two 80s horror comedies. Pete picked this week's movies...and Bryan is left dumfounded after watching his picks.

The Scare Value Podcast returns to the Bates Motel to check in on our old friend Norman. That's right...we're doing Psycho II this week. The sequel no one wanted that holds up far better than it has any right to. Instead of taking the easy road and producing a cheap slasher to fit the movies of the time...Psycho II delivers a deep character study...posing the question "Will society ever let someone like Norman Bates be sane?" Spoiler alert: The answer is no. Check out our stuff on https://scarevalue.com
By popular demand, Watch-Alaugust becomes Watch-Alember...for one week.

With the rift between the Scare Value Boys threatening the future of the podcast...Pete and Bryan sit down for a little couples therapy on this bonus episode.

Can they work through their issues and save the podcast? Will Pete see not being told they were having a therapy session as yet another betrayal? Come for the therapy...stay for the surprising revelation about what truly started all this. Check out our stuff on https://scarevalue.com
