Hellraiser
Midnight Murderama
11/10/20 • 109 min
We have such sounds to show you! This week our hosts watched Hellraiser (1987), Clive Barker's horror classic that spawned some... less than classic sequels. All these years later, how does a low-budget British horror movie hold up that subsequently had all the British accents dubbed over with American voice-over? Spoiler alert: better than you'd think (Additional spoiler alert: the surprise bone dragon doesn't hold up quite as well).
Hike up your leather pants, tighten your chains, and join in the podcast that also draws a fine line between pleasure and pain.

Save the Green Planet!
Midnight Murderama
07/21/21 • 84 min
This week our hosts watch Save the Green Planet!, and you know if there's an exclamation point in the title it's going to be good! One of the lesser-known South Korean horror films to come out of the early 2000's, this film nonetheless hops genres from goofy comedy, to tense horror, to cop drama to... alien invasion film? Or is it?
A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
Midnight Murderama
03/02/21 • 81 min
"We've got the podcast, and you've got the ears." This week our hosts continue digging into the slasher genre with 1985's A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge, the black sheep of the Nightmare franchise. Originally dismissed for not following the format established by fan-favorite part 3, it has since been looked at with new eyes for its... less than subtle... subtext exploring teenage homosexuality. But does that mean it holds up as a film?
Be sure to check out Mark Patton's documentary Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street as well as the segment in Crystal Lake Memories for lots of crazy details in the making of this film.
Carrie
Midnight Murderama
05/11/21 • 115 min
They're all going to laugh at you! This week our hosts watch Carrie, the film that introduced the world to Stephen King while also exposing just how truly dangerous prom can be. This episode kicks off a series exploring the adapted works of Stephen King. It debuts many of the staples we'd come to know and love from him: children with hidden powers, close-minded small townsfolk, religious fanaticism... all the greatest hits!
Friday the 13th Part 2
Midnight Murderama
03/09/21 • 104 min
"Pod-Pod-Pod Cast-Cast-Cast" This week our hosts watch Friday the 13th Part 2, the sequel that finally introduced adult-sized Jason to the world (just not as hockey themed... yet). This film marks one of the definitive departures from slasher films as "mysteries", and establishes many of the tropes that would follow the genre through the decades. Looking at you, woman who just had to skinny dip!
In the Mouth of Madness
Midnight Murderama
03/16/21 • 94 min
Do you read Sutter Cane? This week our hosts watched In the Mouth of Madness, the 1994 film that answers the question: "What if Twilight fans turned their focus to Stephen King?".
This kicks off a section on Cosmic Horror, diving into the the films that explore sanity, the universe, and all the fun tentacle monsters that live within.
A Tale of Two Sisters
Midnight Murderama
07/14/21 • 94 min
It was the best of sisters. It was the worst of sisters. This week our hosts watch A Tale of Two Sisters, the film that teaches us if you're not nice to family members then everyone you love will be crushed by a wardrobe. This continues the investigation into South Korean horror, this time highlighting one of the most successful Korean horror films to have an impact on American horror audiences.
Predator
Midnight Murderama
02/02/21 • 114 min
GET TO THE PODCAST! This week our hosts watch Predator, the movie that sees how many muscular guys you can cram into a jungle before something explodes. It also does a great job of using the traditional slasher framework that had been growing in the 80s, but instead of having a superhuman killer descend on hapless babysitters, we're pitting it against a batch of paramilitary soldiers. It's an interesting look at how Hollywood views what changes when you swap the genders within a trope.
Poltergeist
Midnight Murderama
09/01/20 • 109 min
“They’re heeeeere”
This week our hosts watch Poltergeist, that other Tobe Hooper film that may have been ghooooost directed by Steven Spielberg. But is that accusation fair? What does it say about Hollywood not giving credit to someone who directed The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, thinking he also couldn’t direct a family-focused movie where no one dies?
Scream
Midnight Murderama
02/09/21 • 128 min
Do you like scary movies? No examination of the slasher genre would be complete without talking about Scream, a film that made horror "cool" again in the 1990s. Scream defined its own subgenre full of big named stars and snappy, self-aware dialog, and finally established a world in which the protagonists had watched a horror movie before. But after all these years, does it still hold up?
