Gory babies... it's our 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY EPISODE!
So naturally, we're slashing up and bleeding out perhaps our scariest film to date... and it's a Disney film...? Oh yes... it's finally time for RETURN TO OZ (1985), aka one of Stanley's personal favorites. Join us as we tip-toe down the Yellow Brick Road with young Dorothy (played here by Fairuza Balk in a lil powerhouse performance that set the tone for her career) and her smart-ass chicken, Billina (our actual spirit animal) -- and talk everything Oz, from our own obsessions with the original classic, how we feel about our first year on the podcast map, and of course, so much more!
Spooky Season is here, guys. Thanks for sticking it out with us this last year, and we'll be back next week with our gory thoughts on NIGHT OF THE DEMONS (1988).

Join us as we slash up and bleed out Tod Browning's 1932 classic and notoriously unseen film, "Freaks"! What a fucking gem of a movie you guys and we are genuinely excited to shed some well-deserved light on it (as freaks ourselves, ya know), so please, do yourself a favor and press play on the movie with us at the 15:33 mark!
Remember our convo is unfiltered, unedited, and pure. We adore this movie very, very much.
And even if you decide not to watch along with us as your co-hosts, find the time to do so on your own! It's a magical movie from a time long ago that needs to be seen. They just do not make them like this anymore, and we just fuckin' wish they did.
Have a gory day, gory bb's!
