A woman with a shocked expression is reflected in a shattered mirror, resembling a scene straight out of a horror movie. She grips a hairbrush and wears a light-colored blouse. In the foreground, another woman faces away, possibly discussing this chilling moment on her horror movie review podcast. 1

Prom Night (1980)

Whoa boy, did we enjoy deconstructing this terribly forgettable flick that, nevertheless, stars primo scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis – and a very brief appearance by Leslie Nielsen.

A close-up of a single eye peering through a torn opening in a rough, yellowish fabric tied together with thick string, reminiscent of a scene from Jeepers Creepers. The weathered fabric has visible stitches alongside the tear. 0

Jeepers Creepers

Our second Victor Salva movie (we previously discussed Clownhouse), and it’s clear this man has some style and originality in his films. Both of us loved this unique – if uneven – romp that begins as a suspenseful chase film and ends up a monster movie.

A black and white image of a man standing in a greenhouse surrounded by large, fuzzy plants evokes a scene from "Little Shop of Horrors." The man, appearing startled or concerned, wears a suit and tie, with the greenhouse structure looming in the background like a surreal set from a horror comedy musical. 0

Little Shop of Horrors

This classic from Roger Corman has spawned a hit musical and terrific 1980’s movie update starring Rick Moranis. Yeah, there is the inherent 1960’s goofiness in the original, but even much of that is clearly intentional. Give this short little movie a shot and you may just be surprised.

A figure with charred skin and glowing white eyes stares forward in a dimly lit setting, embodying the haunting essence of "We Are Still Here." The cracked and dark skin emphasizes the eerie permanence of their presence. 3

We Are Still Here

We were definitely split on this unique throwback to those old Italian giallo horrors of the 70’s. Shout out to Todd’s main man, Lucio Fulci!

A decaying zombie with rotting skin, sunken eyes, and missing patches of hair stares forward. Its tattered clothes hang loosely, and its mouth is open, revealing broken teeth—a grim vision straight out of a cult classic horror film. The background is dark and indistinct. 0

Night of the Creeps

We hold mixed feelings about Fred Dekker’s dated but charming send-up to classic sci-fi and horror films. But it’s worth a watch if you love everything about those movies. And James Gunn (Slither, Guardians of the Galaxy) owes a LOT to this movie…

A dramatic, red-tinted collage evokes the vibe of the Lost Boys, showcasing intense faces of several people. Some wear sunglasses, while one sports fangs. Lightning bolts light up the background, adding to the eerie and mysterious ambiance. 0

The Lost Boys

Happy 4th of July! This episode has no relation to the holiday, but we thought we’d say it anyway. While you reminisce on ‘merica, why not take a trip back in time to the 80’s with us today to Rob Reiner’s (and Joel Schumacher’s) classic film, The Lost Boys.
