Meet Your Hosts

As a child growing up in the 80’s, your host had zero interest in anything other than the horror films of that era. The only catch was that he was never allowed to watch any due to a strict household policy of “PG-Only” movies. Learn how he maneuvered around the barriers of parental restriction, and found ways of obtaining the precious VHS cassettes containing all the R-rated fun. No idea was too outlandish and no plan was too far-fetched if the payoff meant another movie crossed off the list.

A child of the 90s, your co-host had zero interest in the horror-filled cinematic breakthroughs of the prior decade and comfortably stayed within the safety of the “PG” limitations with all of her Disney favorites. Now after years of living under the shadow of her sibling’s obsession, she drives straight into the world of these classic thrillers- offering a few snarky insights and shaking her head at the lengths her big brother would go for a good scare.
