Listen...we always start off with the best of intentions. We never say we will do something without the intention of doing it. When we gave you our plan about how we'd cover this topic in October, we said it might not happen that way. What we didn't expect was to be putting it all into one episode at the end of the month. Sometimes...life happens. Enjoy listening to us talk about our experience in October.

We're taking you back to the days of Dark Disney. For decades, this movie was difficult to find, but October 2025 sees it being added to Disney+.

For our first episode of October, Reggie and I give you our list of the best horror movies in the 21st Century. What did we get wrong? What did we miss?

Every year, Reggie and I embark on a journey to watch 31 horror movies in 31 days during the month of October. Some years are more successful than others. This year, we hope to provide you with mini reviews of most/every movie that we watch. We will probably do this in batched solo reviews. No promises, but it should be fun. We'd love for you to join us. Watch some horror movies and tell us what you think! There are no rules. I've created a spreadsheet of the biggest horror movies to have come since last Halloween. Feel free to utilize it. There are two tabs, but I recommend using "By service" if you're looking for something to watch! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pV3FAzHU2dAd2X82O75gFzhOGtR3YrilXpFSM9N1apw/edit?usp=sharing -- We will be reviewing requests from patron once a month.
