Janie's back this week because Aaron is busy getting married! This week we're talking about the horror movie that holds the record for having the most "The Walking Dead" actors in it, without actually being a part of "The Walking Dead" franchise. That's right, we're talking about The Mist. This is one episode you don't wanna Mist. I'm sorry, I had to do it.

Ep 14 - Five Nights at Freddy's
Horror video games work because they force the audience to be directly in the mix, you can't just be a passive observer. Whereas horror movies are scary because they are crafted with the idea that audience is stuck as a passive observer. When stories are crafted for the video game experience, it can be difficult to really translate that experience to the silver screen effectively? Is Five Nights at Freddy's even concerned with any of this or is it just a fan service movie wearing a horror mov...

Ep13 - Late Night with the Devil (2023)
What exactly is Late Night With The Devil? Is it a found footage film? Is it a mockumentary? Well, its kind of both and its kind of neither, but what it for sure is, is the most refreshing take on the "deal with the devil" trope that we've seen in a long time. What happens when you've settled your tab and the Devil says its still not quite enough? Come hang out with Aaron, David, and Chaz and lets talk about it!

Ep 12 - Feast (2005)
Did you know that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck once put up the money to make a movie about cannibal sex goblins? No, really its true. Through VH1 reality shows, all things were possible in 2005, and Feast (2005) might just be the most "2000s" movie of all time, but is it actually any good? Someone must have thought so because they made three of these things. Let's argue about it!

Ep 11 - Bring Her Back (2025)
Children represent innocence, purity, and hope. They're the future, a chance for society to be better than the previous generation. Well, horror is all about corruption of the innocent and bleak, hopeless futures, so its no surprise that children and horror movies don't mix too well. Or maybe, they mix too well. Movies like Insidious and The Babysitter show us the horrors of exploiting children for personal gain. The Omen and Exorcist franchises made a massive impact on culture by popularizin...

Ep 10 - Longlegs (2024)
Good thing we wore our longlegs today, because we've got a lot of ground to cover! Longlegs (2024) takes the FBI serial killer murder mystery vibes of Silence of the Lambs and Se7en, the demonic possession-induced murder vibes of movies like The Devil Inside, the creepy haunted doll vibes of like 1000 movies, and the weird evil numerology/cryptogram vibes of the Number 23 and Zodiac and wraps them into one aesthetically pleasing (and very convoluted) package. But can aesthetic alone carry a h...

Ep 9 - Weapons (2025)
Set your alarms for 2:17am, this episode we're talking about Weapons- a movie that somehow manages to pull off a school-shooting allegory in the form of a witch that eats kids, without it being goofy. Well, except where it gets goofy on purpose, but that doesn't count. We especially loved the ending and think it rips. (IYKYK)

Ep 8 - Hereditary (2018)
Hey wanna watch a movie about the devil being put into a little girl but he was supposed to be put into a boy, so now they have to kill the little girl so they can put him into the right boy, and they do this by making the little girl eat nuts and get decapitated by a telephone pole? Yeah. Me too. Come hang out with Chaz, David, and Aaron as they talk about one of the most divisive horror movies of all time.

Ep 7 - Train to Busan (2016)
Ok, so we know most zombie movies are bad, or at minimum, they're all just kinda the same. Some rag-tag group of survivors try to make it from point A to point B, forging unlikely partnerships along the way. Oh, and the people are the "real" threat. But this one's different, because its got all that, but on a train. According to IMDB, "Train to Busan (2016)" is the 3rd highest scoring zombie movie of all time, beating out titans of the genre such as "Dawn of the Dead" and "28 Days Later". But...

Ep 6 - Jaws: The Revenge (1987)
Steven Spielberg's "Jaws (1975)" is one of the most influential horror movies of all time, having launched the "Shark Horror Subgenre" and a life long shark obsession for millions of movie fans around the world. But.. uh... this ain't that movie. This is Jaws 4- the Revenge! A movie where a (seemingly) psychic shark decides the bloodline from the original Jaws movie must be eliminated, and will stop at nothing to see them fall (even swimming to the Bahamas in 24 hours). With a whopp...

Ep 5- Last Night in Soho (2021)
Ah, the swingin' sixties in London: The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Woodstock, a serial killer that's also a sex trafficking victim that kills her johns... what if you could go back in time and see it for yourself every time you fell asleep? Thanks to Edgar Wright's "Last Night In Soho", you totally can! "Shaun of the Dead" proves that Wright can hang with the big boys in horror, but can he stick the landing when you take the comedic satire out of the equation? And furthermore, sho...

Ep 4 - The Last House on the Left
*Heads up: This Episode features discussion of sexual assault* In this episode the boys discuss the ethics of the R*pe/Revenge Horror Genre and take on the legendary "Last House on the Left" (1972) by Wes Craven, and its ambitious (and dare we say... better?!) remake from 2009. LHOTL is one of the patron saints of the Horror Movie Canon, but... is it actually that good? Let's talk about it!

Ep 3 - I Saw the TV Glow
Have you ever felt like your whole life was a lie? If your long lost bestie showed up and told you that your real life was somewhere on the other side, what would you do? Join Aaron, David, and Chaz as they discuss Shoenbrun's sure-to-be-cult-classic, "I Saw the TV Glow (2024)". See you on the other side!

Ep 2 - One Cut of the Dead
Hey you, you should go watch this movie before you listen to the episode. Seriously, final warning. Ok, welcome back to "Cast Into Hell", in this episode David, Chaz, and Aaron pass final judgement on "One Cut of the Dead", one of the coolest and weirdest horror movies that isn't really a horror movie of all time.
22 Jul 2025
Ep 1 - Smile
In this week's episode, David, Chaz, and Aaron discuss & debate trauma, trauma, and...uh... more trauma (let's be honest this movie wears it's message on its sleeve) when they cast new "slumber-party classic", Smile (2022) INTO HELL. Cue the creepy organ music.
