Horror Movie Night

Matt sits down with his high school friend Erik J. Brown about his upcoming debut novel "All That is Left in the World".  We discuss our love of Youth Adult horror novels as well as Erik's experience writing a book about a pandemic just a few months before a pandemic.

Have you ever found a magic lamp, released the genie inside and considered ITS feelings before making your paltry little wishes?? Doubtful, you selfish jerks. We here at Horror Movie Night are considerate wishmakers, and would probably only get turned to stone or something by an evil djinn instead of having our faces eaten by magic snakes. We're talking WISHMASTER (1997) this week, and what a wonderfully dumb movie it is. If you like special effects and hate logical storytelling, this one's for you!

If there's one thing aliens hate, it's sober humans... is the tagline that this week's movie should've gone with. Listen to us wrangle some little green rascals with Matt's pick of 1957's INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN! It's chock full of all the things you loved about the 50s: wise guys, cool cars, casual misogyny and UFOs. Let's go necking! If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe!

Come with us one decade into the past, when dead mom jokes were the epitome of horror comedy humor, and we wait out the home invasion sensibilities of YOU'RE NEXT (2011). Brian has been seemingly chomping at the bit to discuss this one, and Matt and Scott have no qualms with him picking something that ISN'T 70s grindhouse for once...

It's weird to think that this entire collection of clips was recorded during a lockdown and a pandemic but listening to it reminds me how much the show has meant to me and I assume others. Now that life is getting back to normal I am stoked to get wild for Year 7!! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ever wanted to see Brad Dourif in a steampunk horror movie? Well you're in luck because in 1994 such a film was produced. Apparently it was controversial for excessive violence which means that it's got Horror Movie Night written all over it! This week we look into the futuristic 2003 and see what happens when a mad scientist gets fired! If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe!

Marissa Pona has been a friend of Horror Movie Night almost from the beginning and it's been a pleasure to see her forge her own path with Renegade Film Festival. It was a pleasure to sit down with Marissa to learn more about the film festival and definitively decide that I'll be going down to Atlanta in March for the show! Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on the podcast Matt makes us suffer through the "acting" of Nic Cage. Somehow this film is the actors favorite performance of his but ultimate the film tries to be more "Symbolic" than it actually is. If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe!

Once again we're revisiting a movie from the archives with Brian. This time Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers. Brian has seen the original and he's seen part 3 but he skipped the most rewatchable of them all! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In our continued quest to finally discuss classic early slashers, we're back this week with the deliciously blasphemous Catholi-killer ALICE, SWEET ALICE (1976)! There's a lot going on in this one and it's got style for days, so we do our absolute best to go on tangent after tangent because we really just can't help ourselves.

Some guys really don't take rejection well... Case in point, the killer in this week's episode where we discuss the classic Savini splatterfest THE PROWLER (1981)! It's graduation time and you know these 26 year old high school graduates just gotta get drunk and bump uglies, but sadly for them, the only penetration they'll be experiencing is a trench spike through the skull or a pitchfork through the ribs.

This week, Matt pleads his case to the court of public opinion on what film deserves the title of "Best Movie Made From a Short-Lived Trading Card Series" and subjects everyone to the wet fart of a CGI-fest that is MARS ATTACKS! (1996) If the special effects were bad in the 90s, they sure haven't gotten any better in the years since, but there is a certain hokey charm to the concept behind this one, so let's ACK ACK about it!

There are terrible people in Hollywood and then there are gentle souls like Dan Aykroyd, who want so badly to make a passion project that they direct their own movie even as the male lead tries everything in his power to implode the movie. NOTHING BUT TROUBLE (1991) is an absolute mess - perfect for a lively discussion here on the show! We have nice things to say about it and none of that includes Chevy Chase, who was a total doucher on set and off. Eat it, Griswold! If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe!

Very seldom does a movie so purely stupid, so incredibly inept, and so confusingly charming come along that your boys at Horror Movie Night have never even heard of it, but this week, Shudder brings us a lost gem from times past that we could not deny. DON'T PANIC (1988) aka ADR THE MOVIE is one of the worst NOES ripoffs ever made, but so delightful in its ineptitude. Every choice made was the wrong one and we're so glad we got a chance to watch it because this episode is louder than the female lead's eyebrows.

HOLY EXPLETIVE, WE MADE IT TO EPISODE 300! To celebrate (almost) 6 years of HMN behind us, we decided to go on an adventure. A big one, to be exact - PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE (1985) which, as other millenials know, is straight kindertrauma. Plus it's got Large Marge, killer clowns, and Elvira out of costume.

You know what's REALLY scary? A fish-man wearing sensible human clothing. Especially when said fish-man is swole AF. We're diving into the deep end of the Black Lagoon and coming up for air with THE CREATURE WALKS AMONG US (1956). This is one of the wildest concepts for a golden age horror movie and definitely worth discussing Creature's fitness routine cuz dayum! If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe!

We typically avoid zombie movies on Horror Movie Night because frankly, they're pretty boring. Brian must have missed that memo somehow and picked DAY OF THE DEAD (1985), the zombie movie that spawned all of the tropes that boring zombie movies that followed have used in the vain efforts to show that pEoPlE tHaT aRe ThE rEaL mOnStErS. Fun fact, did you know that in the event of a zombie apocalypse, the surviving people are going to be the real jerks? Crazy, right?? Bub the zombie, shoot us now.

Did someone say "more Matthew Lillard"? Well you're in lucky then, because we're doing back to back Lillard love on the show with another Dark Castle outing - THIR13EN GHOSTS (2001)! The fun of this movie has absolutely nothing to do with the plot, the script or the acting, and everything to do with these sweet ghost designs. And hey Dark Castle, if you're listening, we've got some dope prequel/sequel pitches for you on this episode if you're looking to cash in on the cult following this one may or may not have. Call us?

John Waters is the kind of writer/director who makes comedies for horror fans, but we rarely get a chance to talk about them because his notoriety far outweighs his actual filmography. Luckily, we have SERIAL MOM (1994) that's as close to straight up horror as Mr. Waters gets and therefore is fair game for the Kelly boys. It's got quotes, it's got murder, it's got Matthew Lillard. Of COURSE we're discussing it! If you like the show, be sure to Rate, Review & Subscribe! Send us some emails at HMNPodcast@gmail.com Follow us on our social media!
