Apologies for our lateness, we had our own sort of Christmas Carnage going on around here. Suffice to say, our editor had a fever that sounded more like a radio station than a temperature for the human body. She's all better now though, so let's get this show on the road!

Please enjoy a little post Thanksgiving treat of a preview of our Patreon-only episode released today on Patreon. We went hard in the paint on V for Vendetta, talking about all the many many trans metaphors of the Wachowskis, all the masks that we wear, and fighting fascism - a message that somehow continues being relevant no matter how popular movies about it get.

Be sure to come back next week to talk about the Alfred Hitchcock classic with perhaps the most homoerotic tension (yes, more than Rope) it's The Birds!

Tonight…well, I feel like we’ve talked a lot about vampire movies that feel too pg, that try to FEEL sexy without doing anything sexy in them. The weird crop of sexless vampire stories post Twilight. Well…this is not one of those. This is Park Chan-Wook’s bloody, sexy, and devastating “Thirst”
And our guest tonight, the writer of tons of comics including the series Wolfsbane and Infinite Dark, Ryan Cady.

Kids, Sinners is gonna change your life. It's gonna make you think about vampires, music, and acting in whole new lights. Clear your schedules, because you're gonna want to talk to all your family, close friends, and even a few associates about this one.

There are two Wes Cravens inside you: one is a very important and influential horror movie director who has changed the face of horror irrevocably forever. The other is a goofball who scores child murder with a slide whistle. The People Under the Stairs is a battle between the two of them where neither may survive.

It's time for us to finally grant Ben's wish and set free the horror comedy that's been on their list since the first episode of this show: it's Tucker and Dale Vs Evil!
Our good friend and letterer extraordinaire Jodie Troutman is here to share in the laughs and the scares, but mostly just laughs, because Jodie doesn't do startling movies.
Prepare to spend some time in the woods with a man who is a bear and fall in love with him. Also, feel very sorry for poor Alan Tudyk and his long string of painful looking injuries.
