This sequel finds a group of young women breaking the rules to explore an underground sea cave, who then find themselves face to face with near-blind subterranean monsters. The result is lots of interpersonal drama and dire consequences.If you think that sounds a lot like the plot of The Descent, we thought so too!

Send us a textNo, not that Frozen. Get all your jokes out now, because this movie doesn't feature any lovable snowmen or reindeer.This week we are talking about the 2010 survival horror film, Frozen!

Facing the dangers of hypothermia, frostbite, hunger, and deadly wolves, the three must figure out how to escape with their lives. No one will return for an entire week, leaving the stranded and faced with their own mortality.Pete breaks down how the movie starts as your typical 2000's fare: shitty characters, a generic rock soundtrack, and a completely implausible situation that sets up the danger. However, he was delighted to report that that the film takes a turn at some point, and the realistic drama and complex character work elevates this into an actually engaging experience.Sarah continues to note more places we cannot visit because of horror movies

Send us a textIt's part 2 of our Special Guest Month, and this week we are joined by our very own Social Media Manager!!! (also named Sarah, so it gets confusing).This week's movie was more specifically chosen to confuse and horrify Pete. It's a film that both the Sarah's had watched together previously, during the COVID lockdowns (via a synchronized streaming session). It is The Girl on the Third Floor! And they both hated it!It tells the story of a terrible man, making a last ditch attempt to repair his marriage by fixing up the new house he has bought for him and his wife, all by himself. He is soon confronted by evil spirits that want to tempt him and torture him, and he quickly spirals into madness.Join us as we discuss the importance of General Contractors, the nonsensical editing and plot of the film, and why the Sarah's lovingly nicknamed this movie "the vagina walls movie".And as always, don't get too scared!

Send us a textIt's special guest season on Fearless Films, and this week we are kicking it off when Pete's wife, Cheryl, talks to us about one of her favorite horror films of all time: The Woman in Black!It tells the tale of a turn of the century English solicitor, still suffering the grief of losing his wife to a tragic accident, having to leave his very young son to take a job in the countryside. He is settling the paperwork of an old estate, an isolated house on a patch of land that gets swallowed up by the sea at high tide. There, he finds a tortured spirit haunting the house, and a town full of people that are trying to drive him out, lest he stir the malevolent apparition.Join us as we discuss what makes a truly great ghost story, what are the best-sounding English names, and whether the movie or its source novel has the more depressing ending.And as always, don't get too scared!

164 - Jigsaw and Spiral
Send us a textWe finally made it to the end! Welcome to the final episode (for now) on the Saw franchise. This week we cover the two "spinoff" films:Jigsaw - A new game has begun, and forensic evidence somehow points to the long dead John Kramer. Has he truly risen from the grave? Or has someone new taken on the mantle of the Jigsaw killer? Seeing as how the rest of the series plays it pretty grounded, you can probably figure it out.Spiral: From the Book of Saw - This one acts more like a true spinoff. Chris Rock is a cop investigating a series of murders (all of members of the police) that appear to be paying homage to the long dead Jigsaw killer. This movie doesn't play with expectations, it is definitely about a copycat killer. The mystery is all about their motivations and their identity.Join us as we pick apart these two entries that both Sarah and Pete dislike... strongly! Can we survive to the end of these breakdowns? Or are we going to go as mad as Jigsaw by the end of the episode? Join us and find ou

Only him and his misfit friends can save the town (or burn it all down)!Sarah reacts to the fact that this is basically just an extended episode of the X-Files (featuring key players from the show both in front of and behind the camera), the hilariously bad "slang" used by the teenage characters, and the outdated depictions of... well, just about everything.She also gets concerned about Pete's blood pressure, when he begins to rant and rave about the horrors of studio interference.

The crux of the plot follows an intrepid journalist trying to crack open the US government's attempts to cover up the incident.This is a favorite of Pete's, and he felt it the next best 4th of July horror film after Jaws. The similar setting and aquatic menace certainly help keep up the theme.The fun twist is this: he had Sarah watch it and deliver the rundown, even though she hates bugs and is skeeved out by the movie.

This story is the big screen debut of the hit show, Tales from the Crypt, which ran for seven seasons throughout the 1990's.The Crypt-Keeper of the title is an undead puppet that tells horror stories to the audience. The stories are often bloody, and always horny. In 1995, the creators expanded their scope and produced Demon Knight, which was planned to be the first of a trilogy of spin-off theatrical movies. Poor box office stopped that plan from panning out, but Pete still loves this film.Featuring: a house full of people trapped by a swarm of demons, the blood of Christ blowing up evil people, CCH Pounder being her usual badass self, and Billy Zane having the time of his life playing a bad guy.So grab a seat and listen to the Crypt

Its 2005's Boogeyman! This Sam Raimi produced film stars the oldest son from 7th Heaven as a man who has been terrorized since childhood by an evil entity that lurks in the shadows. He must return home to face his fears and stop this monster from claiming the lives of more children.Created by Eric Kripke, this movie plays out like a dry run for the formula of his eventual hit show, Supernatural. Handsome leading man, monsters out of folklore and urban myth, and dark shadowy sets.Pete relays why he has a soft spot for this mediocre horror flick, while Sarah plays "spot that actor before they broke big".

Learning riveting and terrifying secrets about the stories told throughout the years that I was always too scared to learn about. After listening to over 150 different horror movies explained to me I've come to see the truth: MOST of these damn movies are low effort, money grubbing crapfests meant to trick money from 17 year old boys who want to see peoples heads cut off and boobs. And nothing can be more of a paradigm of this sentiment than the beloved franchise Halloween, who - much like its antagonist - will never die.

A porn in the hand is.. worth... two in the bush?I mean, there's a bush joke in there that works, but that's about it. Anyways, Kevin and Pete are talking about porn this week! I think they misunderstood the 'sex sells' mantra for marketing. Listen along as Pete tries to explain to Kevin that he didn't turn into a weird creep recommending this movie, and instead wants to scare him with the evils of smut and the horrors of a psychotic killer in the 2022 horror X.

New and old characters fight for their lives and try to figure out who the killer is before its too late. They also have to contend with even more long-lost family connections and deep, dark secrets!Kevin desperately hopes for the return of his man-crushes, Timothy Olyphant and Matthew Lillard.

I have to work tomorrow because Kevin and Pete don't pay me enough:On this week's episode of Fearless Films, the guys dream up a scare with the essential 80's slasher, A Nightmare on Elm Street. This game-changer from Wes Craven is about a group of teens being stalked in their dreams by a burnt, blade wielding serial killer who can kill you in real life if you die in the dream.Pete explains how vigilante justice can backfire if the criminal you kill has the power to come back in your children's dreams. He also reminds us of the importance of listening to your kids when they say the boogeyman is out to get them, especially if you created said boogeyman.Kevin is excited to explore the horror dreamscape and all the possibilities it holds. He changes his mind though, when he runs across "Freddy Long-Arms" and falls out of his chair laughing.So get a good nights sleep before joining us for this b

They must use their wits to survive the deadly, booby-trapped rooms, figure out why they have been imprisoned, and find a way out before they starve to death.Kevin knows better than to assume they will remain calm and work together like reasonable people. He also assumes that he would be just as doomed in this scenario, because he is terrible at math (the rooms are marked by number codes, which may reveal if they are trapped or not).So join us in the Cube, avoid the blue rooms, and remember: don't get too scared...

The story follows a group of college students celebrating New Years on a party train, and being stalked by a vengeful killer. Not quite "Die Hard on a train" but close enough.Pete takes Kevin through the intriguing mystery of the movie, which is not the identity of the killer, but how they manage to sneak around the train undetected (hint, this is also a costume party). Then, Pete delights over the fact that David Copperfield performs legit magic tricks throughout the movie!Kevin puzzles over the fact that there is an entire B-plot about old men discussing retirement and the value of the train industry. Not typical fare for a sexy teen slasher film, and Kevin is afraid of a repeat of Halloween 3's middle-aged protagonist nonsense.So everyone hop on board, and try to survive the Terror Train! And remember, don't get too scared...

Kevin spends his time oscillating between trying to understand the choices the movie makers make while criticizing the killer's choices of how he racks up the body count. His work is cut out for him this episode because Pete's right there with him in questioning the choices this movie makes.So sit back next to the fireplace this Christmas time and make sure to lock your doors, and chimneys this Christmas time as Santa may be looking at your for his "Naught - KILL" list!

He also laughs in the face of terror, as he has been trapped in his house with his family for the better part of a year, and no one has even picked up an axe once (he did get smacked with a spatula once, however. Long story).So join us in the ballroom, grab a drink from the waiter, and always remember: don't get too scared...

This time they are discussing Friday the 13th (2009).Pete explains how the writers crammed four movies worth of plot into this one film, and yet somehow came up with a shallow series of kills with barely any story holding them together (and that's compared to the 80's slashers this is rebooting).Kevin is barely hanging on after a month of Jason, and finds no respite from this entry. He has the know-how to see how this movie is somehow a worse version of the entire franchise he just learned about.

Jason is still just a "regular" human killer, who runs instead of stalks, and struggles to grapple with teenagers instead of bending them in half with super strength. These early entries still have the feeling of late 70's summer slashers, with plenty of POV shots and screaming women.Kevin tries to wrap his head around the fact that Jason doesn't even get his hockey mask until part 3, and that part 4 is called The Final Chapter when he knows there are so many more entries in this series.
