Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death

Another week another Halloween film. However, this week Cyndi and Josh bring you one that they agree is both short and pretty good. That's right we watched Halloween H20, Jamie Lee Curtis's return to the role and franchise that made her famous. Did we like it? Were we annoyed by Josh Hartnett's haircut? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week to find out. 

So for October we decided to continue our watch of the Halloween films from a few years ago. We did Halloween (1978), Halloween 2, Halloween 4, and Halloween 5 a couple of years ago for October (with Halloween 3 coming years ago when we did witch movies). So we are starting out this month with the next film up - Halloween 6 aka Halloween 666 aka Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. We watched the theatrical cut and do we have thoughts and feelings about it. What were they? Join us this week to find out and as always mind the doors.

Well we did it we finally finished our extended series of movies about identity. What started as an idea for Josh's birthday month has led to us covering some pretty incredible movies and today we are ending our series with Zach Cregger's Weapons. Now if you're a long time listener you'll know we previously did Barbarian and it scared the hell out of Cyndi. Did Weapons do the same? Did we like it? Was Cyndi creeped out by Gladys? Join us this week to find out.

Well we finally watched and talked about Josh's birthday movie the Japanese classic Cure from 1997. This dread inducing film is part Se7en, part David Lynch and the stuff of nightmares. However, did Cyndi like it? Did Josh find a theme of the dissolution of modern society in the movie? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week and watch what Josh lovingly believes is his second favorite horror movie of the 1990's.

Hello, I have two bits of important information for you. 

 

First, we watched District 9 the incredible, independent, sci-fi tale of as mid-level manager who turns into an alien and has to run for his life to avoid being eaten or torn apart and studied. Second, we are carrying over our identity horror month one week so we can watch Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure. 

 

So buckle up and join us as we watch District 9.

Well we did it, we watched our first animated film. That's right we watched Satoshi Kon's crazy horror, stalker, identity nightmare film about a Japanese pop singer who just wants to be a serious actress. Did we like it? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out.

Well we watched a Rock Hudson movie for a horror podcast. Our first film of the month of August, a month of horror movies about identity.

Well we made it to the end of our series on Summer vacations gone horribly wrong. We figured what better way to end it than in Australia with a certified banger. We watched Dangerous Animals but did we like it? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

Ladies and gentleman sometimes you see a horror film and it's filled with complete unknowns or people making their first film. Sometimes it's a cast of up and coming actors fresh off that television show or playing the second lead in larger movies. Well, sometimes it's just a cast of certified height of their game. Which is what we have this week with The River Wild. A whitewater rafting thriller with Meryl Streep, Kevin Bacon, David Straithairn, John C. Reilly, and Joseph Mazzello.

 

Did we like it? Were we floored by Kevin Bacon's performance? Did we talk about the social constructs of gender identity because of this movie? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out.

Well our month of vacations gone wrong has landed us in the car with Steve Zahn, Leelee Sobieski, and Paul Walker as they flee from a murderous trucker who is just a voice on the radio and seemingly everywhere at once. That's right we watched Joy Ride directed by John Dahl. Did we like it? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out.
