Podcast 300
Three hundred episodes. Plus One MORE.
When we first decided to do a podcast, we thought that one about Alfred Hitchcock's films would be fun. Partway through the second episode, we realized that he only made about 50 films, and we wanted to do something more ongoing. We decided to make more generically about horror films in general.
We chose well; with over 1700 films reviewed so far, there is no end in sight– they just keep making more horror films, and there are still plenty of oldies that we haven’t seen. There are so many new films coming out (especially this month and next) that we have to prioritize and choose among the new releases. There just aren’t enough days in the week for all the terror!
But still… there are more things in the world than just horror. We’ve noticed that while watching our movies, we both really enjoyed the old movies a lot. I’ve even written books about them. We’ve decided that we like doing “Horror Weekly” so much that we want to branch out and do a more unlimited podcast about older films.
Say hello to “Classics Weekly,” a brand-new Podcast/Newsletter devoted to classic films. Our first episode, devoted to “Casablanca,” will drop sometime next week. It’ll all be very similar in format to Horror Weekly, but since it’s only one film each week, we’ll be able to go more in-depth with trivia and commentary. It’ll be fun.

Anyway, this time around, we’ve got a slight focus on “home invasion” films. We’d been sitting on the most recent two “The Strangers” films for a few weeks due to that prioritizing I mentioned, but then “Sunset Superman” (2024) released this week, and they all just went together so well that we had to include the three films together. We’ve also got “Lyvia’s House,” a tale of romance and gaslighting, as well as “Mother Nocturna,” a new release about mental illness, depression, and family.
