Episode 206 | Top 10 Horror Movie Chase Scenes
Catching up on last month's Patreon's Choice episode: The Top 10 Horror Movie Chase Scenes, where Zack and Tim will go through their favorite chase scenes, along with some honorable mentions. A lot goes into crafting a great chase scene, and it seems to be a lost art form in the horror genre these days. Most studio execs would sooner trim them down for a shorter runtime, and most filmmakers take a more formulaic approach. So we really wanted to get some deep cuts for our selections, which we ...

Episode 203 | Resident Evil (2002)
The Resident Evil franchises is rebooting once again with a brand new movie coming out this week. So what better a time to cover the original than now?

Also, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die. ...

Episode 202 | Buddy (2026)
We went and checked out the new horror movie, Buddy, so we could tell you all about it. Could this be the start of a new franchise, or is it a fleeting gimmick that will mostly be forgotten. Join us as we weigh in on our thoughts of the homicidal orange unicorn that is continuing this year's trend of low budget indie horror. Also, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die....
