Todd and Becca

Todd and Becca met and fell in love over their shared love of horror (among other things, I guess), so it only makes sense to channel that passion into a podcast that seeks to review every horror movie ever made.

So join two married, antisocial weirdos on this silly journey to share their love of horror, and each other, with strangers on the internet.

Each episode starts with a spoiler free review and content warning, so don’t be scared. Look for new episodes every Thursday!

We rank scary movies from our childhood | Reviews: Ernest Scared Stupid, Scooby Doo (2002)
This week, we're wrapping up our childhood horror theme with our most nostalgic episode yet (while also getting over a cold, sorry). Let's take a look back at the horror that made us by judging just how much those scary movies on TV traumatized us, and round it out with some more age appropriate horror that also happened to be way cooler than anything these kids nowadays are watching. So join us for a very personal look back at our first horror movies, from childhood all the way through high school, while we judge them based on how much they had us shaking in our little boots. Afterwards, stick around for spoiler free reviews of Ernest Scared Stupid and the live action Scooby Doo, picked by each of us as the definitive kid horror movies from our respective childhoods. These are the movies that made us into the horror fans we are today, and I'm eternally grateful to them for fueling the passion that led to me meeting my soul mate and ultimately sitting down every week to make this thing together that brings us so much joy. I love you more than anything, Becca (and I love all of you, too <3).

We guess horror movie titles based on Letterboxd reviews: 2020's edition | Reviews: Buffet Infinity, Touch Me
October is almost here, but we've got time for one more Spoiler Free Speedrun before the Halloween season starts! For September we're revisiting Shitterboxd, because who am I to deny Becca what she wants? And since we couldn't come up with a theme, and we just so happen to also be covering a couple of 2026 movies, we're sticking with horror movies from the 2020's as we pull the best and worst Letterboxd reviews we can find. So join us for our love/hate relationship with short form movie reviews on the internet, and let's see who can stump the other person while also trying not to be too mean and obscure. Afterwards, stick around for spoiler free reviews of Buffet Infinity and Touch Me, two movies that we just so happen to have complicated feelings about.

We debate our top horror movies of all time | Reviews: Faces of Death, Exit 8
It's the last week of August, and that can only mean one thing - it's time to (playfully) argue with each other and review some horror movies! This month, we're forgoing a game and instead revisiting THE LIST. Each episode, we add the title we're reviewing to our massive Letterboxd list and rank it against every other horror movie we've covered. And unfortunately, that list has become ungainly enough that maybe we've lost sight of the bigger picture. So join us today as we try to come up with a more sensible ordering, and let's see if we can actually agree on whether The Bone Temple is better than Psycho. Afterwards, keep listening for some spoiler free reviews for Faces of Death and Exit 8.
