Jaci & Luke are digging into one of their all-time favorites with the spectacularly Halloween-focused Trick 'r Treat (2007). Carve a pumpkin and put on your fanciest costume, we're hitting the town for some serious candy snatchin'! Topics include: The intersection of fun and horror, cool ways to chop up a plot, anthology movies, and the most adorable way to create a slasher villain.

Head into the woods of New Jersey this week with Jaci & Luke as they dissect the 1980 classic Friday the 13th. Prepare to cavort with some camp counselors and avoid the lake at all costs. Topics this week include: the knockoff ripple effect, what happens to a flick without a plot, Kevin Bacon, copious comparisons, and one particularly bad Airbnb.

Enjoy this blast from the (not so distant) past, with a feed drop from none other than Hanksy Panksy!

Original Description:

Throw on a Captain Kirk mask and drive on down to Illinois, this week the Horror Hut (a podcast within a podcast) is covering Halloween! Yes, that's right folks. Michael Myers is taking center stage, with topics including: teenage baby sitting hijinks, a very special theme party for adults, buttered up clothing, hangin' with Jamie Lee Curtis, and the supernatural origins of evil.

Jaci & Luke are finally digging into the werewolf sub-genre, this week taking a look at 1981's The Howling. Awoooo!! Head on over to The Colony and bring a shotgun full of silver bullets, because this time they're talking: Contrasted werewolf themes, the Pale Man for dogs, streaming service woes, legally distinct Blockbuster quotes, and how to write a spookier flick.

Jaci & Luke shoot for the stars and get to terraforming with this week's episode on 1986's Aliens, directed by the ever-present James Cameron. Jump in a cryosleep pod and hit an alien queen with a forklift, because this week we're talking: Military horror, a particular fear of Bigfoot, Stranger Things, movies that give you anxiety and the Alien franchise at large.

Jaci & Luke are taking a trip to a rustic farm down Texas way, this week taking a look at 2022's slasher flick, X. Grab a camera and do some drugs, because this time they're talking: slasher sub genres, Randy's handy-dandy rules for surviving a film (but subverted), the evolution of horror through the years, Scream 6 references, and nudity on the silver screen.

As promised, here's the Ghostface Glossary!

Jaci & Luke had a hankering for vintage horror, so this week they're taking a look at 1973's The Exorcist. It's an absolute classic with discussions including: practical effects, not jumping to psychiatry, possession horror as a sub-genre, movie pacing now-versus-then, television as compared to the big screen and why The Exorcist stands up after all these years.

Jaci & Luke return, this time taking a look at the horror-comedy classic that is Shaun of the Dead (2004). Grab a cricket bat and go save your mum, because this week we're talking: Edgar Wright films, Longlegs, The Walking Dead's influence, coming of age in your 30's, American survivalist fantasies, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the cross-section of horror and comedy.
