028 - Double Feature - Manhunter (1986) & Red Dragon (2002) →

It's another Double Feature! This week on Pod Sematary, Chris and Kelsey watch the 1986* neon-noir masterpiece, Manhunter, and its amazing (but boring?) 2002 remake, Red Dragon. Come hear Chris be probably the meanest he's ever been to someone on the show (the awful Brett Ratner) and Kelsey get incredibly harsh about someone's face (strangely, it's Willem Dafoe, who isn't in either of these movies).

*Listen to Chris repeatedly misattribute 1986's Manhunter as being from 1988.

027 - Häxan (1922) & Sleepy Hollow (1999) →

Best of 2017/18 - #9 (Tied) Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages

It's all about witches... again! This week on Pod Sematary, we go back to the silent film era for what some call the first ever documentary: 1922's Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages! While we're on the subject of witches, we might as well turn to Tim Burton's only true horror movie: 1999's Sleepy Hollow! Is this the last great Burton film or the first stumble in his downfall? Why not listen and find out?

026 - April Fool's Day (1986) & April Fools (2007) →

CW: Abortion

Worst of 2017/18 - #10 April Fools

Happy Easter, everyone! This week, Chris and Kelsey do absolutely nothing for Easter and instead focus on April Fool's Day! There are a handful of horror movies themed around this "holiday" and we picked the best and the absolute worst for this episode. First up is the classic from the 80s era that tried to cash in on the Halloween and Friday the 13th holiday horror craze, 1986's April Fool's Day! Find out which characters f**k on the first date! Then it's on to the absolutely abysmal April Fools from 2007 (featuring Li'l Flip!) that we stumbled on several years ago completely by accident and could never get out of our minds. I know I say I refused to buy this movie but, sadly, I had to in order to capture audio... my iTunes movie library is a wasteland.

025 - Double Feature - Dawn Of The Dead (1978 & 2004) →

Oh, man, it's a big 'un. This week on Pod Sematary, Chris and Kelsey get down with the sickness in a zombie double feature: Dawn of the Dead! First is George Romero's 1978 follow-up to the seminal Night of the Living Dead. Is the sequel better than the original? Are you Alien or Aliens? Godfather or Godfather Part II? Then it's on to the surprisingly okay debut of cinema pariah Zack Snyder in the 2004 remake. It certainly isn't awful and is only a little more than an hour and a half long, so there's that.

024 - Leprechaun (1993) & Red Clover (2012) →

Worst of 2017/18 - #3 Red Clover

The St. Patrick's Day Holiday Fortnight continues on Pod Sematary with some lepreCARNAGE! First up is the kid's horror movie-cum-adult schlockfest, Leprechaun (1993), starring Jennifer Aniston and Francis from Pee-wee's Big Adventure! Then... oh, then... it's the Sci-Fi (SyFy?) Original™, Red Clover (2012), starring Cool Dude™ Billy Zane and his heart-wrenching story of Black Friday tragedy! We lose our damn minds over this one, folks, and we don't even mention the fact that the "leprechaun" kills a guy by running him over with a car.

023 - Maniac Cop (1988) & Grabbers (2012) →

This episode sees the beginning of Pod Sematary's St. Patrick's Day... Holiday... Fortnight? Chris and Kelsey cover St. Patrick's Day and Irish themed horror movies for the next two weeks! First up is the lesser-known horror classic, Maniac Cop from 1988. Bruce Campbell goes chin to chin with Robert Z'Dar! Then it's on to the small Irish isle of Erin Island where the locals have found a unique way to stave off an alien invasion in 2012's Grabbers. And don't forget to come back next week for more St. Paddy frights!

022 - The Cabinet Of Dr Caligari (1920) & The Babadook (2014) →

Best of 2017/18 - #7 (Tied) The Babadook

This week, Kelsey and Chris go back to where it all "began" with 1920's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Is this the movie that might get the Never-Silent crowd on board? And then, we spend quite a while gushing over Australia's the Babadook from 2014. We dig deep into this one and what it means to us. 
Don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe! (That's what I'm supposed to say, right?)

021 - Double Feature - Fright Night (1985 & 2011) →

This week's episode was suggested by listener Brian S. He recommended we do a double feature on Fright Night and we were happy to oblige since the 1985 original is one of our favorites! But is the 2011 3D remake too much like Twilight? Listen and find out!

Write us at podsematary@gmail.com if you'd like to suggest a movie, too!

020 - Double Feature - My Bloody Valentine (1981 & 2009) →

This week on Pod Sematary, we get so close to a good horror movie remake! Kelsey and Chris check out an unsung horror classic in 1981's My Bloody Valentine. The small mining town of Valentine Bluffs is rocked by a murderous past. When the town moves on and restarts the tradition of a Valentine's Day dance, are they risking the wrath of Harry Warden? Then, it's on to the 2009 3D remake that tries some very interesting things, but ends of undercutting itself at seemingly every turn.

019 - X-Ray (1981) & Valentine (2001) →

Worst of 2017/18 - #1 (Tied) X-Ray

Warning: Do not watch X-Ray. Or whatever - we're not the boss of you. In this week's episode of Pod Sematary, Chris and Kelsey HATE a movie that some people seem to love for some reason: 1980's X-Ray (AKA Hospital Massacre; AKA Ward 13; AKA Be My Valentine... Or Else!). If you are one of those people, first seek professional help, but then write us to let us know WHY. Then it's on to 2001's Valentine with David Boreanaz, a revenge slasher that Kelsey remembers from her middle school days and Chris doesn't remember at all.
