Join two horror movie aficionados in their quest for the scariest scares known to humankind. Zach is a self-described horror nerd with a keen eye for movies, while Ana likes to get so scared she can't sleep with the lights off. Every week, they'll come in with a movie they've each picked and break down the good, the bad, and the ugly. Tune in for spooks, reviews, and too many bad jokes.
