Dance with us under the light of a full blood moon as we celebrate the return of Lucas from Japan, Austin’s near death Independence Day experience, and Curtis and Cody’s idiotic levels of love for questionable movies as we get down and hairy with THE HOWLING and THE HOWLING II: YOUR SISTER IS A WEREWOLF or THE HOWLING II: STIRBA - WEREWOLF B*TCH!

Vision quest with us into the Canadian wilderness as we discover sweat lodges, finger necklaces, Graham Greene’s hardcore badassery, and how to not clean a fish when you want to eat it as we descend into the darkness of CLEARCUT. Amongst the forest horror you can find us discussing Dead by Daylight, leaking beams in your house, Josh Hartnett’s hotness, our complete lack of literary knowledge, and so much more it’s disgusting! We hope you enjoy it as much as Cody and Curtis enjoy this movie!
00:00 - 21:30ish - Friendship! Cody’s beloved dog Rod joins us, we talk Dead By Daylight, leaking beams in your house, and the missing Titanic sub.

Welcome back! We’ve moved on from France and have come back home to the filthy, crusty, problematic South! Along the way we take some detours discussing our recent viewings of some recent flicks like Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, The Little Mermaid (we’re well-rounded folk over here), and take a pit stop at the Inland Empire and talk a little David Lynch. But our destination awaits as we dig into Tobe Hooper’s tie-dyed follow-up to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: EATEN ALIVE!
00:00 - 13:15ish - Intros and Friendship! Lucas laments copyright laws, Curtis gets mushy about friendship and doing podcasts, and fans vs. robots.

Oui oui au Francais! We go back to the Croisette – where we are immediately escorted far, far away – and finish what we’ve started with a TRIO of the most famous horror films in the New French Extremity movement of the early 2000s. That’s right, grab your finest pair of shears, dust off that old concrete saw, and flay your skin off your body as we cover INSIDE (2007), HIGH TENSION (2003), and MARTYRS (2008). We also go deep on some recent viewings (Curtis watched too much stuff, what can we say) including, because who would we be if we didn’t weigh in, James Gunn’s trilogy capper, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Bet we’re the only podcast to put Martyrs and Guardians in the same episode description. Enjoy!
00:00 - 21:19ish: Friendship! We intro discussing Chet Hanks (Cody had never heard of him), sommeliers, Gary Vaynerchuck (only Lucas had ever heard of him), Lucas’ grandma’s favorite snack, the actual best pizza on the planet (Apollonia’s in Los Angeles), group texts and who we reach out to for specific help, and how incapable most of us are at basic handy things.
21:19ish - 1:12:35ish : What we watched recently!
Curtis (he apologizes deeply, but there are some solid recs here): Sisu, Guardians of the Galaxy, Rolling Thunder, Cop Land, The Lure, Snake Eyes (1998), All Eyes, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Insidious: Chapter 3, Parasite, BKO: Bangkok Knockout, Ip Man, Speed, The Fast and the Furious, Fast X, Cobra, Thirst, Sorcerer, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
Austin: John Wick Chapter 4, Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation & Fallout, and BlackBerry.
Cody: Sisu, Queen of the Damned, The Crow (Cody went to Mall Goth Fest in Vegas), Akira, Black Adam, and Sorcerer.
Lucas: Chainsaw Man and Cam.
1:12:35ish - 1:22:05ish Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 discussion (we f*cking love James Gunn so much).
1:22:05ish - 2:38:10ish - Martyrs, Inside, High Tension, and the New French Extremity!
2:38:10ish - End: What we’re watching next time!

Out of the jungle and into… the woods! We pack our camcorders, grab our tents, and homemade wooden sacraments and take an in-depth trip to Burkittsville, MD where we cover everything under the Blair sun. Hear about our histories with The Blair Witch Project, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, and Blair Witch and our thoughts on their places amongst the pantheon of horror greats and... oddities. Meanwhile, it was Lucas’ bday most recently so reach out to him on the socials (or send personalized love notes to his house) and wish him a happy belated!
00:00 - 23:00ish - Intros and Friendship: Lucas recovers from a delightful birthday celebration, BLADE news, Lucas’ unread emails, first look at Maxxxine, trips to Mecca (Nicole’s AMC in Porter Ranch), and Austin almost ruining his phone trying to get Siri to read some crazy Lucas stuff.
23:00ish - 46:00ish - What we watched in addition to the main flick(s)!
Curtis - Polite Society
Austin - Scream VI
Cody - Evil Dead Rise (again), Renfield, and Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum

Pack your bags and prepare for the lush vistas, the culinary delights, and the satanic rituals of South Korea as the crew embarks upon the epic masterpiece, THE WAILING! Along our journey we’ll continue to argue about how many 5th graders Lucas erroneously thinks he can beat up, discuss our friend day Verhoeven double feature, listen to Curtis wrap up his Korean cinema adventure (for now), and go DEEP on an exciting new release! Find us @shudcast on all of your typical haunts and let us know… how many sequels to The Pope’s Exorcist do YOU want?
00:00 - 14:00ish - The Friendship portion of the show! 2000s rap, re-litigating previous issues (Lucas still thinks he can beat up too many 5th graders), and slap fighting.

We walk beyond the rows this week as Austin has selected for us an ‘80s horror classic – and yes, we believe it definitely is such – in CHILDREN OF THE CORN (1984)! Drive into the emptiness of Middle America with us as we also discuss our rich person in-home theater dreams, how cemeteries work according to Lucas, and the beginnings of a whooole lot of Korean cinema intake! As always, follow us @Shudcast on all of the socials and let us know what you think of Children of the Corn!
00:00 - 31:21ish - Intros & the Friend Portion of the show! We recount the weird weather of March in Los Angeles, thoughts on Krakens on screen, how Michael Bay might store his TVs, our rich person/in-home theater dreams, what makes a movie successful in a particular format, and Lucas has a very very loose concept of how a cemetery works.
31:21ish - 1:09:30ish What we watched outside of our feature film!
Curtis - The Crow, Insidious, John Wick Chapter 4, and a big ol’ trip to South Korea – I Saw the Devil, Joint Security Area, Memories of Murder, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, and A Bittersweet Life.

But before we make our trek back into beautiful South Korea for The Witch: The Subversion and The Witch Part 2: The Other One (not not the reason Lucas picked this duology), we get into some spoiler-free discussion of Scream VI, video games, global politics, and the Oscars!
Speaking of, RRR is an Oscar winning film! Go to 1:28:00ish to hear us talk about it! Naaaatttuuuu!!!!

Look, we’re all human. Even if we prefer to think of ourselves as dark-dwelling, bloodthirsty creatures, there is always something that will remind us that we’re just big sacks of goo that can easily be dismantled – or forget to hit record on our podcast. We dive deeper than we maybe have before this week and face new elements of existential crisis tackling our first foray (at least on the show) into New French Extremity (a term you will hear us say ad nauseam, so apologies in advance). We are also somewhat proud to say that after 60+ episodes of recording we have yet to do something truly silly like forget to press that pesky record button – until today. So, like the French filmmakers of the ‘00s, we’re bringin’ heat right out of the gate. Please enjoy our discussion on Claire Denis’ TROUBLE EVERY DAY and let us know, do we need to make Cody watch MARTYRS again? Follow us all on Letterboxd and the usual spots to tell us these things!
00:00 - 37:00ish - Friendship stuff and what we watched this week: Take 2!
Austin: M3GAN
Cody: Cocaine Bear, Toy Story 2, The Creature From the Black Lagoon in 3D
Lucas: The Creature From the Black Lagoon in 3D
Curtis: The Creature From the Black Lagoon in 3D, High Life, Roh, Magic Mike’s Last Dance, Creed, and Sheitan
