What's your favorite 90s monster quote? Does un-funny office horror work? Could you read from a screen without tongue tying yourself? Get down on Friday with us this week as we get wild with the popcorny Carnifex (Australia, 2022) on Tubi, shrug at the wasted potential of The Belko Experiment on Tubi and get creeped out over late night snacks with Milk on Shortverse. Also, movies about bad dads and the wilderness are dropping this week and Melissa reminds us what George Romero called them instead of zombies.

What's more frightening: anticipation, or realization? Amorous zombies, or giant holes in the ground? We get weird this week with Japanese folk horror classic Onibaba (1964) on Max, ultra-Italian bizarro flick Cemetery Man (1994) on Shudder and the trippy Canadian short Deja Vu on Shortverse. Plus - what major Asian city has not been attacked by a giant monster?

Why is it always rainy after the end of the world? If a serial killer is incompetent, does that make him more or less scary? Why was Wer so meh? Discover the answers to these questions - and more! - as we chat about Into the Abyss (Argentina, 2022), a SciFi noire horror somewhere between Blade Runner and 28 Days Later, and Angst (Austria, 1983), a true crime-inspired story of brutal murder. Also, Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color (Japan, 2023) might be a gimmick but its a magnificent gimmick, one of the protagonists from Wer (Romania & USA, 2013) gives Jar Jar Binks a run for his money, and we mourn the absence and passing of co-host Melissa, who was comically murdered by Lucifer herself.
