The Silver Scream This week, we'll go back to the seedy, sadistic and cutthroat world of Hollywood and take a look at what happens when you sell your body and soul for fame, fortune and glamor with: Starry Eyes Taking a different approach to some similar themes as The Substance and The Neon Demon, we examine life for a struggling actress with an evil cult on one side of her, and the most toxic group of theater kids on the other. Along the way, we go all the way off the rails with the LA fires, conspiracy theories, generations, education, the evolution of the human mind vs the evolution of technology, California water, AI, movies with multiple directors, #MeToo, black metal and personal growth. Does it sound chaotic? It is, but we're having a damn good time on this bleakly glamorous episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!…
Clip Show In space, no one will hear you scream…or roll your eyes and groan. This week, Jess and Glenn sit down for the new Alien greatest hits album: ALIEN: ROMULUS We’ll talk about the physiological and social ramifications of hypersleep. We’ll try to track the increasingly complex reproduction cycle of the xenomorphs. We’ll tackle the biggest philosophical question posed by this movie: Is it possible to have too much fan service, too many references, and too many Easter eggs? The answer may just surprise you! Or it may not if you've seen this one.…
Zany Regional Spinoff Edition Happy Birthday to us! Streaming Screams has been going for an entire year! We can hardly believe it! And speaking of belief, we are kicking off our second season with a movie that asks us some big questions about religion, ourselves and our beliefs: Do we believe what we believe because it’s what was taught to us? When we challenge our beliefs, how do they hold up? What is the one true religion? Heretic This week we sit down and examine Hugh Gran in this fascinating foray into religiously philosophical horror as he terrorizes two young Mormon women. As we do so, we’ll ask some tough questions of our own: Would you walk into a house with metal in the walls? Should you trust overly charming people? Does a blueberry pie scented candle REALLY smell like blueberry pie? What’s the point of a cover letter, anyway?…
Simply Irresistible Get ready for an absolutely bonkers journey through the glamorous and dangerous worlds of celebrity and modeling with two wild takes on being a beautiful woman in the entertainment industry: The Substance The Neon Demon We are heading into the depths of what women in Hollywood and the Los Angeles modeling industry are willing to do to maintain their youth, their beauty, their fame and their adoration. We’ll talk about the violence one will do to themselves, or their competition, to remain pleasing to others, and the roles that society, men, age and power play in all of this, all explored through the lenses of body horror, understated supernatural dread, and good old fashioned murder. Along the way, Jess will tell us why she doesn’t need more apps while Glenn continues to struggle with names and gets very invested in color schemes. We’ll talk about big cats, our experience with the Hollywood walk of fame, Glenn meeting Lars Ulrich and Nicolas Winding Refn, plastic surgery disasters, and we’ll make an announcement about the future of the podcast. So paint your face with sparkles and grab yourself some moist, floppy shrimp, because we're gonna get weird with it in this bizarre, yet beautiful, episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!…
Closer to God Throw on your trench coat, pour yourself another coffee, and get ready for a late night, because it’s time for some good, old fashioned, detective work, 90’s style! As the new year begins, we are going back in time to talk about a police procedural made in the 90s, and one that takes place in the 90s. Seven Longlegs Is Seven horror, strictly speaking? Who cares, that movie rules and is at least horror related. Is Longlegs horror? Yes. It’s also bonkers. We’ll dive into a sin-filled city, rife with corruption, crime and misery before heading out to the Pacific Northwest for a very memorable Nic Cage performance in a very strange movie. While we’re at it, we’ll talk about plastic surgery disasters like permanent duck-face and noses that fall off, bemoan the fact that so many fans want so many things to be the same all the time, celebrate living in a new golden age of weird horror, and Glenn will go on for a bit too long about Nine Inch Nails. It’s time to condemn our eternal souls on this creepy noir episode of Streaming Screams!…
As the year draws to a close and night seems to surround us, it’s often a good time to reflect. To look inside yourself and see how you’re doing. To take a deep dive into your emotions. This month we examine two movies that really sum up how people feel around the holiday season: Smile The Sadness First we take a hit of that jump-scare adrenaline and hallucinatory uncertainty with Smile, before exploring the absolute depths of human depravity with The Sadness. Along the way we’ll talk about how not to hold an intervention, older folks and creepy dudes bothering you when you’re just trying to read a book, the value of human live vs. the value of animal life in horror, and we’ll laugh at Glenn as his inability to pronounce people’s names hits an all time low. We also take a moment show a little love to the great Tony Todd. You’ll laugh! You’ll cry! You’ll scream! You’ll… stream? It’s all part of the roller-coaster of emotions that is this month’s episode of Streaming Screams!…
From the Bowels of Hell to the Terrors of the Mind As we return to our normal monthly schedule we explore the Inferno and ask, is it age and Alzheime’rs, or is it something, somehow more sinister? Join us as we strap on the camera with two found footage flicks: As Above, So Below The Taking of Deborah Logan We’ll explore the allegory of the parisian catacombs, dive into the unexplored family drama of child sacrifices and queer daughters, look for a physical way out of Hell with a wannabe Last Crusade-era Indiana Jones, and deal with way too many snakes. Along the way we’ll tackle some of the big, important life topics, like growing up catholic, being a bad student, why you shouldn’t kill rattlesnakes if you see them, motion sickness, Hummel and Precious Moments figures, energy drinks and shady HVAC contractors. So get on your belly and abandon all hope with this first person episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!…
The End is the Beginning Alas, all parties must come to an end and trick or treating can only go on for so long. The neighbors are turning out their lights, so open up your bag for the last fun-sized episode of our Spooky Season Super Scary Screamtacular with John Carpenter's most seminal work, the original classic, the immortal, the iconic Halloween We travel all the way back to 1978, with a quick detour to 1963, to see the Michael Myers legacy take shape (See what we did there?). One thing that’s going to be interesting about this journey is that we watched two different versions of the movie. Glenn watched the version that we all know and love, while Jess watched the extended version involving scenes added years later. Along the way, we’ll touch on some important subjects like why teens bang in their parents bed (and maybe why they shouldn’t), whether artists can be trusted to tell you the meaning of their own art, whether you can be a goody two-shoes and still smoke weed, and what the heck is a slasher anyway? As we say goodbye to spooky season and return to our monthly schedule, we want to thank you for joining us for our first Halloween event. May your costumes be awesome, your parties raucous, your Samhain fires warm, your tricks scary and your treats delightful! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!…
Trailer for our first ever, Spooky Season Super Scary Screamtacular! It's a Halloween celebration as we hand out four fun sized episodes featuring the Halloween 2018 trilogy as well as the original Halloween!
Not Dead Enough The Halloween party continues with another fun-sized episode where we get into the most divisive and controversial film of this whole timeline Halloween Ends As the sequel trilogy winds down and the focus shifts to a new character, we follow Haddonfield into the depths of societal and generational trauma. Along the way we’ll examine how we, as individuals and society, relate to, and are reflected by, this dark, decaying town, the wisdom of doing 3 Halloween movies in 3 different genres, Romeo and Juliet romances, people’s need for someone to blame and whether this movie is secretly a remake of Christine or not. It’s time to burn it down with the penultimate fun sized episode of our Spooky Season Super Scary Screamtacular!…
It’s a Hunter’s Moon Open up your bag because here comes the second fun-sized episode of our Spooky Season Super Scary Screamtacular!

That’s right! It’s time for Halloween Kills We continue our journey through Haddonfield as the warmth of the Samhain fire gives way to a raging inferno! This time we get to catch up with Tommy Doyle and literally anyone else they could get from the 78 movie. I bet they’re all doing great! Along the way, we find out what it truly means to be close to your family, EVIL DIES TONIGHT, question the morality of lies of omission, EVIL DIES TONIGHT, what happens when you give a motive to the motiveless, EVIL DIES TONIGHT, the logic of erasing all previous sequels and then repeating a bunch of the same mistakes they made, and finally, EVIL DIES TONIGHT!…
Trick or Treat! Smell my feet! Give me some PTSD! The most wonderful time of the year has finally arrived! Spooky Season is finally here and it’s time to celebrate with our first ever Spooky Season Super Scary Screamtacular! This week we drop the first of 4 weekly, fun-sized episodes into your bag, starting with Halloween (2018) We return to Haddonfield 40 years after that fateful Halloween to see what Laurie has been up to and how life has treated her since her encounter with Michael Myers. I’m sure she’s doing great! Along the way we’ll touch on The Legend of Zelda, figure out if Tubi is a good service, ponder whether JJ Abrams is a hack and figure out whether gummies or micheladas make for the best edibles/drinkables.…
On the Road This month, our ghoulish hosts head down to LA to see one of their favorite bands, Ghost, at the Kia Forum for one of the shows filmed for Rite Here Rite Now. Along the way they explore the spooky, wynorrific town of Raven’s End and a morbidly grisly haunted neighborhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina with two unique and visionary flicks: The Mortuary Collection Terrified We’ll touch on the manipulative and deceptive tactics of the guys you shouldn’t date, the heartbreak of euthanasia and invalid care, original music made for movies, exploding genitals, housing structures in Argentina, anthology-like narrative structure, Rob Zombie’s Halloween, and Glenn, AGAIN, talks about his appreciation of penises in horror movies. It’s a good time!…
Freaks on Parade IT'S TIME TO ROCK! In preparation for the Freaks on Parade Tour, featuring Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper (as well as Ministry and Filter), we recorded this somewhat special episode of Streaming Screams! We start today's discussion with a John Carpenter cult classic featuring Alice Cooper, and end with Rob Zombie's first film: Prince of Darkness House of 1000 Corpses We dive deep into the possible coding of Walter from Prince of Darkness, discuss Rob Zombie's methodology, anime-hipsterdom, and even step in a big steaming pile of controversy! It's time to hide your mirrors, do some neck stretches and get ready to play air drums with your fried chicken on this hard rockin' episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!…
The Farmer's Daughter Gators and smut films and senior citizens, OH MY! With Maxxxine having its major release just days away, we thought we’d revisit the first two parts of Ti West’s sexploration of cinema: X Pearl Featuring absolute powerhouse performances by today’s #1 scream queen, Mia Goth, and explorations of age, sexuality, lust, love, film-making and how we are shaped both by our environment and the movies we love; this trilogy looks to be shaping up to be one of the best in horror history. If you’re planning on seeing Maxxxine, and need a very fun refresher on the first two movies, this one's for you! Along the way we’ll touch on such subjects as monogamy vs polyamory, swimming in unvetted waters, the importance of consent and honesty in more than just intercourse, underwear with the day of the week on it, the use of elderly nudity in horror, Glenn’s adoration of Chelsea Wolfe and the truest horrors in life: Costco on a Saturday (and their sub-par pizza.). One thing we will NOT be discussing is whether it’s better to find a man or a bear in the woods! We’ll even include a bonus mini-segment with our reaction to: the Maxxxine trailer! It’s time to go over the rainbow and under the clothes in this month’s glamorously sleazy episode of STREAMING SCREAMS!…
