In a world where shadows dance... and the screams never end.
Where horror isn't just a genre... it's a way of life.
Two brave souls dare to press play.
Join them... as they laugh in the face of terror, chase tangents through twisted tales, and always—somehow—find their way back to the reel.
"Reels... After Dark"
Because the real horror… is missing an episode.
Rebecca Hall stars as Beth, a grieving widow whose coping mechanism for her husband's sudden suicide involves drinking copious amounts of brandy and blasting lo-fi indie rock at 3:00 AM. Things take a turn for the surreal when she discovers his secret pandemic project: building a bizarro-world, mirrored replica of their lakeside home deep in the woods. This masterclass in existential dread quickly morphs into a supernatural episode of Catfish, where Beth tries to figure out if her late spouse was a secret serial killer or just a guy taking "needing a man cave" to an occult extreme. Ultimately, it’s a beautifully shot, terrifying reminder that you never truly know your partner, especially if they happen to be a licensed contractor trying to gaslight a demonic entity named "Nothing."

Episode 03 - Club Dread (2004)
Broken Lizard traded the state trooper uniforms of Super Troopers for machetes and coconut bras in the horror-comedy Club Dread (2004). Set on a hedonistic tropical resort run by washed-up island-rocker Coconut Pete, the staff suddenly finds themselves being picked off one by one by a dreadlocked killer. It is a glorious cocktail of classic 1980s slasher tropes and absolute stoner-comedy absurdity, featuring competitive team-building exercises and a highly intense, human-sized game of Pac-Man. It’s the perfect movie for anyone who thinks Friday the 13th could have used about 80% more margarita mix.
Hatchet (2006)
A group of goofy tourists on a haunted swamp tour get stranded in the bayou, which is bad news because the local boogeyman, Victor Crowley, is very real and very angry. This deformed, unkillable swamp-dweller then proceeds to turn the entire cast into a bloody arts-and-crafts project using his signature hatchet and anything else he can find. It's an outrageously gory, gleefully stupid love letter to 80s slasher flicks that's all practical effects and zero plot.
The movie Hatchet is perfect for big horror fans like Aaron and Rebecca, because this super-gory swamp movie is exactly the kind of cheesy horror flick they love to break down on their podcast.
Hosts Rebecca and Aaron recap the horror film *The Descent*, exploring themes of claustrophobia, trauma, and surprisingly aggressive teamwork in a cave filled with blind goblins in this interview.
