Podcast Overview

<p>What if you could get a front row seat on a journey through the best and worst horror movies of the past half-century, all rated on Rotten Tomatoes? Brace yourself for an eerie tour with your hosts, Chad Campbell, Mike Carron, and Sam Schreiner, as they dissect each film with a surgeon's precision and a fan's passion. Our story began on a mundane work day, when two colleagues, Chad and Mike, decided to start a podcast centered on their shared love for horror films. The search for a genre was a winding, convoluted exploration of possibilities, before we arrived at the chilling idea of horror films.<br><br>Our journey didn’t stop there. We had to figure out where to begin, how to categorize each film, and the scale to use for our rating system. We landed on a year-by-year review of the best and the worst films, starting from 1970 - the dawn of modern horror. Our shows come packed with a variety of categories like First Impressions, Tropes Hall of Shame, One-liners, and more. We also rate each film on a watchability scale, advising if it's worth your precious time. Join us as we sometimes agree, and other times disagree with Rotten Tomatoes' ratings. So, fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a spooky ride!&nbsp;<br><br>Head to www.screamsandstreams.com for links and information related to our episodes.</p>

Ep. 136: Takashi Shimizu's "Ju-On: The Grudge" (2002)

That clicking noise isn’t just a jump scare. It’s a warning that once you step into Ju-on: The Grudge (2002), the movie’s curse logic has already decided your fate. We’re Mike, Chad, and Sam, and we put Takashi Shimizu’s J-horror classic back under the microscope to see what still creeps us out, what drags, and why this haunted house story became a template for a generation of supernatural horror. We start with quick impressions, the plot’s ruthless simplicity, and the stuff that makes rewat...

Ep. 135: Rick Bota's Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002)

0% on Rotten Tomatoes is rare, but after watching Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002), we get it. We go scene by scene through a sequel that drowns in non-linear edits, “gotcha” hallucinations, and a plot that keeps resetting right when it might finally build momentum.

We also talk franchise expectations: what makes Hellraiser and Pinhead iconic in the first p...

Ep. 134: Neil Marshall's "Dog Soldiers" (2002)

They kick off a training exercise and end up barricaded in a farmhouse with eight-foot problems outside the door. We’re talking Neil Marshall’s Dog Soldiers (2002), the British werewolf horror movie that somehow turns “soldiers vs lycanthropes in the Scottish wilderness” into a surprisingly fun, surprisingly funny survival night. We start with a quick spoiler warning, a tight plot summary, and our themed drink the Warrior Dog (vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, topped with sparkling wine). Th...
