Watch If You Dare is a podcast exploring horror cinema through the eyes of a coward and the eyes of a longtime fan. Each episode, Aaron (a horror movie monster boy) and his longtime friend Derek (a lover of the dark and macabre, but a spooky celluloid coward) watch a new movie and then attempt to put their bony fingers on why jumpscares, supernatural entities, and other phobias get under our skin. Whether you’re a hardened horror expert, a casual in a love-hate relationship with scary cinema, or just a victim of a dare, join Derek, Aaron, and the occasional guest or two and face your fears.

For Halloween 2025 and to wrap up the "High School Horror" Season of Spoop, Aaron and Derek are joined by Raf Stitt and Valerie Morreale of the Screenage Wasteland film website and The Canon Podcast to discuss 1996's slasher classic "Scream" directed by Wes Craven and written by Kevin Williamson. They talk about how "Scream" both honors and subverts slasher films, the thematic elements of mass violence in schools, and what it did in revitalizing horror in the 90s. They also get into the undertones of certain relationships between characters, the realism of Ghostface making the slasher more terrifying, all the references to other horror movies, and many other aspects of the film. Val and Raf have a favorite scary movie. Aaron and Derek's parents are going to be so mad at them.Check out Screenage Wasteland at https://screenagewasteland.com/The Canon Podcast can be found on Apple at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-canon-an-essential-movies-watchlist/id1680794257On Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/5WgmNfRzvbLNtPlBC2jkD3?si=ba78aaf2a23646f0&nd=1&dlsi=5b701af83fcb4fa4On Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/@ScreenAgeWastelandThey are on Twitter @SAWasteland and @SAWpodcastsRaff's Bluesky: @rafstitt.bsky.socialRaff'x Twitter: @rafstittVal's Bluesky: @val-more.bsky.socialWe are on PodBean, Apple Podcasts, Podchaser, Goodpods, Amazon Music, Spotify, iHeartRadio and CastBox.
