  • F*ck This Franchise (Scream 6 with Keith from Movies & a Meal!)
    Mar 13 2023

    We head to Manhattan this week to spend time with some of our old friends from Woodsboro. How does this stack up with the other five? We'll discuss. (Also on the table: where else should Ghostface travel? What are the best cold opens? Have we ever correctly identified any of the killers?)

    NOTE: Episode title is taken from Scream 6 dialogue. We actually love the franchise; don't yell at us.

  • Become...Wrath (Se7en with Troy L. Foreman and Jason D. Morris)

    We had an absolute blast discussing Se7en with Troy and Jason, the men behind the documentary Millennium After the Millennium! (Obviously their fantastic documentary and the TV show Millennium came up, as well.)

    The subject matter is grim but the conversation is not.

  • You're Gonna Die Up There (The Exorcist with Gae Polisner)
    Jan 18 2023

    Happy 2023 and welcome back! We're joined by author Gae Polisner to discuss The Exorcist. As you know, it's a theory of ours that everyone has that one horror movie they love and Gae (noted exact opposite of a horror enthusiast) picked The Exorcist! If you're only going to choose one, that's a great? Nonsensical? Terrifying? option. Either way, we have a blast dissecting it.

    LINKS MENTIONED:

    Serial killer in The Exorcist
