Just do me a favor and keep writing such trhnecant analyses, OK?
Deal. But you owe us one!
Do you cover any horror tv series? Was listening to this recently and I finished Ash vs Evil Dead a while back. Just wondering.
Another good horror podcast is Horror Movie Podcast. They don’t go as in depth as you guys and are more about reviewing the movies but, are really good.
If you haven’t seen the Musical you really should. It was awesome. Wear a poncho
