In this episode we're bringing you some notorious nuptuals and some sanguinary spouses, because the theme for our Double Feature is brides, but we've found two very different ones to talk to you about. And we've had to squeeze them in, because my goodness we have a lot to talk about this episode - we've got loads of news and other Horrible Business to get through, and we have quite a bit to say about a very Fresh Hell too.   What Fresh Hell Is This? - Lockwood & Co (2023), from Netflix.

Did you think we'd left you for ever? Heaven forfend - we love talking to you dearest listeners about horror too much to ever do that. Instead we've been preparing for this bumper crop, covering what we've been up to over the last 9 months, what we've enjoyed, some small bits of new and then the meat of the episode - watching three horror films and talking to you about them. We start with a delightful horror comedy, then jump straight into it with two recent remakes of peerless classic horror films. Are they duplicating the previous lightning in a bottle, or licking a 9 volt battery? Listen to find out. And we've missed you - it's good to be back.   Easily Available Horror: Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (2010) from Amazon Prime.

We're sorry! We promise never to leave you for this long again! But we're back in the Shed with another look at all that's chilling, and we've got a great episode on an absolutely iconic horror film this episode, and we are even quite complimentary about it's 21st Century remake, which is rare for us. There's also a horror drama podcast and lots of horror news (well it's been a while).   Easily Available Horror: Limetown, a 2015 podcast by Two Up Productions.

We normally pride ourselves in a good punny title, but for this one we're going full Ronseal - exactly what it says on the tin. This packed episode features a three-way Royal Rumble of three of the biggest names in sci-fi horror but also finds room for the usual horror news and the biggest Dead Horse we've ever had the misfortune to flog.

What's this - the Shed Boys trying something new? In an unprecedented move we throw format out of the window and try a freewheeling discussion about a random horror genre in our new Breaking Wheel section, but it's shorter than anticipated because we end up talking for over half an hour about a computer game from 2002, as is our wont.   (Unfortunately there's some background noise from about the 40 minute mark due to some nearby DIY that we weren't able to clean out, but hopefully it won't affect your enjoyment of the episode).   One From The Vaults: Clive Barker's Undying (2002) from GoG.com

Well it's a whole New Year but we're back on our usual bullshit, talking about YET ANOTHER slasher franchise because that's all we do now. But this is the last slasher-focused episode for a while because even we're a bit burned out on this classic subgenre now. It's a doozy though, as we go for a Triple Feature that is actually almost a Quadruple Feature, on the Slumber Party Massacre franchise.

We're on our usual short New Year's sabbatical from the podcast here in the Shed, but we've popped in just to put together this little retrospective. It's just a little and deeply self-indulgent episode bringing together all of the musical interludes that we've created over the past four years of episodes. Enjoy!

It seems amazing that this is our fourth Christmas episode, given our attention spans, but here we are, and we definitely have a mixed bag of festive films for you in this one. In terms of Christmas movies we're pleased to present to you the good, the bad, and the very, very ugly. We'll let you decide which is which.   One From The Vaults: Black Christmas (1974) from Amazon Prime.

You want ghosts? We got ghosts. One score and six ghosts, to be precise, because we're looking at a pair of films which both feature a baker's dozen of the ectoplasmic buggers. We compare a 1960 William Castle film to the 2001 remake by Dark Castle Entertainments, and also come right up to the present day with a horror fresh off the press from last month.   What Fresh Hell Is This?: There's Someone Inside Your House (2021) from Netflix.

This episode comes to you courtesy of that genre where everyone is beautiful, parties last forever and everywhere you look are mysterious dark figures carrying bodies about - the 90s Teen Slasher. We look at two of the biggest films in the genre that aren't Scream, and also have a good old listed to a podcast based on a Stephen King short story. It's all go here in the Shed, and another thing that is all go is the builders next door, so there might be a tiny bit of background drilling and banging, but we got most of it out!   Easily Available Horror - Strawberry Spring, a 2021 podcast on AudioUp, also on Apple Podcasts and Audible.
