Wake up honey, it's time for another Resident Evil reboot! This time, Zach Cregger steps up to the plate with his own interpretation on the iconic survival-horror video game series.
Following Austin Abraham's Bryan as he sets out on a mission to transport some important cargo through the isolated Arklay Mountains and into the famous Raccoon City, Zach Cregger's take on Resident Evil promises a focus on the mutations, the atmosphere...
This week, the boys are getting gruesome as they cover I Spit On Your Grave.
One of the iconic films that pioneered the controversial rape-revenge genre, I Spit On Your Grave is a film that earned its controversy with some shocking scenes and some wince-inducing kills. But how does the film handle the difficult subject matter, does it have any feminist angle like its supporters claim or does it have come off as exploitative
September is here and with it we start our Video Nasties season.
The first Video Nasty we look at is the extremely controversial 1978 mockmentary/film Faces of Death.
Dr. Francis. B. Gross attempts to lead us on a journey confronting the many faces of death whether it's violence, natural disaster, animals or whatever kind of stock footage they can attempt to recreate. The Cast Me To Hell boys have many things to say in response.

Summer is drawing to a close and with it, our Summer Slasher Season has one more sorority to visit before September begins.
Released in the twilight of The Golden Age of Slashers, The Initiation follows a sorority pledge who is plagued by a reoccurring nightmare. Tasked with breaking into the local mall, the sorority pledges find out that there's scarier things than 80s fashion waiting inside for them. Featuring a healthy slew of k...
There's pranks abound this week as the boys cover Killer Party.
Following a trio of sorority pledges who are on the cusp of their initiation, Killer Party is a real cosmic gumbo of horror-comedy-slasher-possession madness. There's pranks, pervs, guillotines and all sorts of weirdness in one party you don't want to miss.
But is Killer Party a fine bit of genre-blending, or does it leave a bit of a bad taste

This week's Summer Slasher Season sees us cover Sorority House Massacre.
In a film that borrows heavily from the Halloween playbook with a light sprinkling of Nightmare on Elm Street and some good ol' 80s euro-horror, Sorority House Massacre features a sorority pledge haunted by dreams, visions and foreboding as an escaped mental patient starts to hunt them down.
But is this just a reskinned Halloween for the 80s crowd or doe...
Our Summer Slasher Season continues as the boys take a trip to the House on Sorority Row!
After playing a prank on their Sorority House Mother that results in her death, seven sorority sisters find themselves the victims of a slasher rampage, but is this a case of vengeance or has their house mother come back from the grave. Releasing in the midst of the Golden Age of Slashers, House on Sorority Rows promises blood, scares and a po...
Our Summer Slasher Season is here, and this year we're hitting up the sororities for some slasher scares.
To kick start the season, the boys both give 3 sorority slasher recommendations to get you into the mood and give a little tease at a couple of the films to come this season. Robbie brings some 2000s cult classics whilst Seb keeps it classic with some 80s fun and an extremely deep cut from the 30s.
Be sure to pledge to the Cast...
We've got one more Must See Horror before we kickstart our Summer Slasher Series, so we're looking at Peter Jackson's Braindead/Dead Alive.
Before he brought us the unforgettable fantasy epic of J.R.R Tolkien's Lord of the Ring's, Peter Jackson was getting up to some extremely gory weirdness with something that's a little Evil Dead, a little Monty Python and a little something we don't really understand.
When a Sumatran Monkey-Rat ...
Our Must See Horror features sees us cover one of the breakthrough horrors of the 2000s, and the first chapter in what would become a juggernaut of a franchise.
Another film which kickstarted the "torture porn" subgenre, but one that wears a bit more of its Seven influences on its sleeve, Saw is part gritty procedural crime thriller and part blood-soaked psychological terror. Featuring the birth of horror icon John Kramer/Jigsaw, a...
Our Must See Horror feature sees the boys get into a spot of bother whilst backing around Slovakia, as we discuss Eli Roth's Hostel.
Arguably one of the biggest horror films of the 2000s, and one of the precursors to the "torture porn" genre that blackened the good name of horror, Hostel takes a look at the dark side of travelling as two American travellers (and one Icelandic charmer), get more than they bargained for when explorin...
Summer is officially here and as we prepare for our annual Summer Slasher Season, we thought we'd kick things off with some Must See Horror debates.
We're revving up the gore for this selection of Must See Horrors, and as we've already covered the iconic 1974 original, we thought we'd take a look at the slasher remake that kickstarted the whole early to late 2010s slasher remake craze.
Featuring Jessical Biel in a white vest and a ...
We return to our quick look at horror genre spoofs as we look at meta horror-comedy The Final Girls.
Still reeling from the tragic death of her mother, a teen finds herself magically transported to the slasher film that her mother starred in as a young adult. Released in 2015, The Final Girls features a well known cast of young actors and aims to riff on the classic camp slasher as well as try and tell a heartfelt story about grief...
The boys return to the Scary Movie franchise with the film that started it all.
Spoofing 90s slasher classics Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, Scary Movie introduced us to Cindy, Brenda, Shorty, Ray and many other characters who become part of the early 2000s cultural zeitgeist.
But how does this movie hold up after 20 years? And how does it compare to the most recent return to the franchise?
Join as we discuss Scary Mov...
The Wayans Brothers have returned to the Scary Movie franchise after 25 years!
In a time of reboots, requels, legacy characters and returning villains, Scary Movie looks to spoof everything and anything horror and pop culture. Taking aim at elevated horror, gen-z, "woke" and even K-Pop, The Wayan Brothers promise that no line will remain uncrossed.
But how does this type of parody hold up after twenty-five years away from the spotl...
After 25 years, The Wayans Brothers return to the Scary Movie franchise!
Riffing on requels, reboots, returning legacy characters and a whole manner of recent horror movies and pop culture events, Scary Movie sees the return of franchise favourites Cindy, Brenda, Shorty and Ray as they take on a new Ghostface.
But how does the Wayan Brothers return go down after all this time? Is their finger still on the parody pulse of pop cultur...
Our Monster Movie Season concludes with 2020s reimagining of The Invisible Man.
Written and directed by modern horror master Leigh Whannell, The Invisible Man reinvents the iconic character as a narcissistic tech billionaire and stars Elizabeth Moss as his victim. Featuring a great modernisation of a classic character and the exploration of domestic abuse, manipulation, control and gaslighting, 2020s The Invisible Man plays it quie...
Our monster movie season continues with 1933's The Invisible Man!
Loosely adapting H.G Wells novel of the same name, The Invisible Man stars Claude Rains as the titular villain in a film that is equal parts mind-blowing special effects, classic monster movie horror and unintentional hilarity as an invisible naked man wreaks havoc and hijinks.
We discuss some differences and similarities to the novel, the special effects and the ico...
Curry Barker's directorial debut Obsession has just released in cinemas and it seems to be blowing up all over the internet.
In a classic tale of 'be careful what you wish for', Obsession sees a lovesick man's wish backfire. Featuring a truly phenomenal performance from Inde Navarrette, Obsession promises creepy scenes, black humour and some pretty squeamish moments.
But does Obsession live up to the hype? How is the ho...
Straight from the cinema, the boys bring you their spoiler free review of Curry Barker's Obsession.
Proving that you should always be careful what you wish for, Obsession follows a lovesick man who makes a last ditch wish that throws his love life on its head. It's a bit of a slow burn that's as humorous as it is creepy, and balances some interesting themes of codependency with some gory good times.
But is Obsession worth watching?...
