Streaming Screams
Warnings for spoilers and mature content DO YOU LIKE SCARY MOVIES? We know you do, and so do we! We are Glenn and Jess, besties and drive-in mutants, with a shared passion for the macabre, the grotesque and the ridiculous. When you’re home alone on those dark and stormy nights, we’ll let you know where you can tune in and find a chill to run up your spine. Every month we’ll watch and discuss two horror movies that you can watch at home, alone or with that special someone or someTHING. We connect deeply with horror movies, which is a little disturbing if you think about it. So, we go off on plenty of tangents, side chats and rants along the way, before passing our final judgments and letting you know where you can find these terrifying treasures. What kind of horror movies do we cover? Why, anything you can stream! From the dawn of Hollywood to today. From the grindhouse to the arthouse, from slashers to found footage, from serial killers to haunted houses, and from comedy to the truly deranged, if it’s on the net for you, it’s on the slab for us. We’ll unleash new episodes on the 1st Thursday of every month, so please, enter freely, of your own will, and leave some of the happiness you bring. JOIN US.

The days finally begin to shorten and cool off a bit as summer begins to give way to fall. And so, too, our Summertime Madness series comes to a close. We're ending on a strong note with the kinda gross, very funny, classic horror comedy of the early 00s:
CABIN FEVER
Join us as we plunge into the fetid water of AI usage in film, how times have changed since 02, paranoia, casual homophobia, horror fonts, cringe wordplay, the biggest...
A bizarre thing has happened in the world of The X-Files recently, Chris Carter has released a brand new cut of I Want to Believe, the divisive and often maligned movie that came out years after the series had ended. He created this cut with the intention of re-focusing the movie on the horror story as opposed to the relationship. Both of us watched the show (and honestly, Glenn was one of those kinda weird X-Files people), so wh...
Alright alright alright! Summer is winding down, finally! For the penultimate part of our Summertime Madness series, we're closing out the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre series:

So, in this episode, we'll ask tough questions like"Is this a 'good for her' movie?" and "is it acceptable to ...
It's time for more SUMMERTIME MADNESS! This week, we're keeping to that Texas heat with
LEATHERFACE: THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE III
We talk the evolution of the titular Leatherface up to this point, the expectations set by the trailer vs the reality of the movie, the behind the scenes chaos, the second drastic tonal shift of the series, and the baffling continuity of the series including the retcons first introduced in this movie.
...We ventured out to the theater recently to see the new Evil Dead movie. But we didn't go to just any showing; we went to 4DX showing! So how is EVIL DEAD BURN? How does it stack up to the rest of this iconic series? What's the 4DX experience like and is it worth the extra money to see Evil Dead Burn in that kind of showing?
Join us for this special bonus episode and find out!
Our Summertime Madness series continues with
SUMMER OF 84
a really good movie that is sure to satisfy the your thirst for blood and nostalgia (but not in that overthought forced way).
We'll talk about summertime as a child or a teen today vs when we were young, the Goonies meets Hitchcock vibe, and raccoons as the ultimate foolproof scapegoat! Along the way we'll be sidetracked by the Polybius podcast fakeout, mysterious rubb...

Today we leave behind the summer heat of Texas and head to Washington County, New York to spend some time at Camp Arawak in this seminal summer camp slasher:
SLEEPAWAY CAMP
As iconic as it is controversial. Classic summer camp slasher. Excellent portrait of kids growing up and figuring themselves out. A case-study in bullying and abuse. A fun film with an unforgettable ending. This one...
Welcome to SUMMERTIME MADNESS! We're gonna spend this summer discussing hot, sweaty, sun-drenched horror films that fit that summer vibe. Why? Why the hell not?
We begin festivities with one of the most iconic and classic horror movies ever made:
THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE
We talk about the descent into madness, the often missed humor, the equally often missed message and satire, the disgusting special effects, and how much o...
We recently ventured forth to the theater again, to check out Curry Barker's wide theatrical debut, Obsession! This was the same director who gave us The Chair and Milk & Serial, both of which we reviewed, and REALLY liked, in our 2025 Youtube episode. Funny enough, Glenn didn't actually know it was a Curry Barker film until the opening credits started to roll.
So, how did we like enjoy Obsession? Join us and find out!
Last year, a unique body horror movie made a pretty big splash in the horror community. This week, we finally sit down and watch
TOGETHER
Ironically, we watched it separately.
We'll talk about codependency, body horror, the emotional journey of a horror movie and how this one almost subverts the standard. We'll also talk about that time we were drunk and being catty just to be catty and accidentally were jerks to a musician G...
This week we look under the bed to find a surprising monstrous blend of Jaws, Tremors, and Pan's Labyrinth, with DNA from Terry Gilliam and Wes Anderson:
DUST BUNNY
Cute and monstrous, frightful and fantastical, violent and whimsical. Join us as we climb the furniture to enter a world of hitmen, feds, fixers, scared little girls and childhood monsters on the newest episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!
What do you do when the fight or flight response kicks in? What do you do when one of your friends dies while another hides? What do you do when you know it's not their fault, but you can't feel that it's not their fault? This week, we talk about
THE RITUAL
We discus survivors guilt, the children of Loki, cults, resentment, blame, courage and cowardice. But ALSO, do you like cat drama? Because along the way, we're talking about so...
It's a nice day for a white wedding, and it's a nice night for a little game of Hide and Seek with
READY OR NOT
With Ready or Not 2 having recently come out, we thought we'd thought it'd be a fun time to review the first movie. We'll dive into the old money world of obscene opulence, demonic pacts, and incompetence in this twisted take on the classic childhood game. Along the way we'll talk about conspiracy theories, mansions...
This week we step away from our usual review and discussion to instead have some fun and games.
Katie joins us and hits us with a some trivia, demands some "hot takes" and even asks some questions to help everyone get to know us a little better!

Time to take a strip to a magical land, a land where the grass grows green and is cut perfectly even, where people keep an eye out for each other and another eye on each other, where dark secrets are burred and dog poop is weaponized.... THE 'BURBS

Valentine's day is almost here and love is in the air! Or is that blood? Either way, hearts are involved and they’re gonna break when we sit down to chat about
HEART EYES
We set out to deconstruct this deconstruction of romantic comedies and horror movies alike as we ask, “how does Heart Eyes stack up as a slasher? How does it work as a comedy?” We compare it to other horror comedies and discuss wh...
Osgood Perkins has been killing it lately, so we thought we'd go back and revisit his first film:
THE BLACKCOAT'S DAUGHTER
A stark, bleak, and sometimes challenging movie that Jess had been harassing Glenn to watch for years, so you KNOW we had stuff to say about it. Also, we take a slightly different approach to our podcast format.
And we get pretty wild along the way. Jess informs us what percentage of sheep a...
