Nightmare on Film Street - A Horror Movie Podcast

Jessica Chastain is back, horror fans! And this time she's playing dual roles as Mother of The Year and an evil supernatural monster that is surely a cousin of a Pennywise the Clown.

Join your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon as they share their first reactions of Other Mommy (2026), immediately after leaving the movie theatre. Judging by the discourse online, people have A LOT of opinions about this new scare factory, and we are no different. Good or Bad, we share our full thoughts and honest impressions (with a spoiler free segment up top, in case you're still...

There's never a wrong time to watch a Satanic Horror movie, especially during the Halloween season, but it's particularly timely this year because the end is near because of the recent passing of beloved actor Sam Neill. Join us as we celebrate the work of a legend (in a movie...

We're dropping this week’s episode a few days early because we're talking about Zach Cregger’s newest horror flick Resident Evil, which just set a new opening weekend box office record for the franchise. That's right, it's time for another Drive Home From The Drive-in, and this time we've got a lot of tentacles and exploding heads to obsess over.

Join your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon as they break down their first reactions after sitting down to enjoy one of the year's most anticipated horror movies, and a surprise left turn from the filmmaker that gave us B...

Join your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon as they tailgate the Halloween season by handpicking their favourite prompts from this year's #31DayHorrorChallenge! Last week, we kicked things off with our discussion on RAD Remakes, and today we dive headfirst into the world of BAD Remakes, beginning with Gus Van Sant's Psycho (1998), the "shot-for-shot" remake of Alfred Hitchcock's beloved Psycho (1960).

Psycho (1998) is a bizarre experiment in filmmaking (a failed experiment depending on who you ask) and a prime example of a film that the world considers a BAD Remake. But does Psycho (1998) deserve reevaluation Redemption, even?? Laugh along as...

We're Back!

Nightmare on Film Street returns and we're diving straight into our favourite annual Halloween tradition, the #31DayHorrorChallenge. Join your Horror Hosts Kimmi & Jon as they revisit The Ring (2002), our choice for Day 1 of the challenge, and a movie that despite traumatizing an entoer generation is somehow only rated PG-13...

And join us over in the Fiend Club for Part II of our Rad Remake discussion where we debate what are the raddest remakes of all time, and how Gore Verbinski's The Ring (2002) stacks up against remake royalty like John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) and...

Join your horror hosts Jon & Kim as they starch their camp counselor uniforms and sit around the fire for the last time. Seeing us out the woods this week is the 2009 remake Friday The 13th from Marcus Nispel, director of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003). It's a decidedly different killer roaming this familiar campground, but motivations and machetes aside, he's still the same boy you love to fear. His name was Jason...

Let's get ready to ruummbblleeeeeeeeeeee....again! Sure, we talked about Freddy vs. Jason not too long ago but mama mia here we go again. Freddy vs. Jason is an all-timer, standing strong in the pantheon of monster mashes like Godzilla vs King Kong, and Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man but with a killer nu-metal soundtrack and two supernatural baddies that love slashing some pesky teens. 

Join usssss as we dive back into the Crystal Lake waters, by way of Springwood Ohio, for the rematch of the century 🥊

Lo...

As we all know, every horror franchise's best sequel is the one that goes to space. It's a scientific fact. And while there is zero scientific accuracy in this movie, we're confident absolutely no one will disagree when we say that Jason X (2001) is the greatest Friday The 13th movie ever made :P

Join your horror hosts Kim & Jon as they journey beyond the stars and celebrate the majesty and wonder of a movie that turns Jason Voorhees into an undead cyborg on a University field trip through space with a karate-chopping, gun-wielding robot lady.

We're in the deep end of Crystal Lake now, Fiends! Join us as we wade through the weird, wild waters of Adam Marcus' Jason Goes To Hell: The Final Friday.

Yes, this is the movie that set the stage for Freddy vs. Jason and gifted us gore hounds with one of the absolute best kills of the franchise...but it's also the movie where Jason shaves a dude and leaps from body to body as a gross evil slug. Buckle up. It's going to be a wild ride! Join ussss.....

Modern Horror Master Eli Roth is back with another serving of gory madness in Ice Cream Man (2026) 🍦💀🍦

Join your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon as the break down Eli Roth's newest flick, and all of the bizarre choices that make Ice Cream Man (2026) the goriest but also the strangest horror movie of the summer season. According to Eli Roth, this movie has more kills than all of his previous movies combined! We haven't been keeping track but based on the body count of this new nightmare, the math checks out.

Note: Drive Home from the Drive-in reviews a...

Ahoy graduates, and welcome aboard the SS Bloodbath! That name is, uh, purely decorative. You definitely won't be stalked and murdered by an undead maniac with superhuman strength with the ability to teleport. We promise. 

Of course, if you're worried at all, join us in the rec room for a screening of Friday The 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. Some call it a high point of the franchise! Most others call it trash, but it's the only movie we have on the ship, and (bonus points!) it's got a scene where Jason kills a girl and k...

Let's get ready to telekinetically rumbllleeeeeeee! 

It's the epic showdown of a lifetime! In this corner, with the waterlogged trunks and the smelly hockey mask, weighing in at an astonishing 275 pounds of undead flesh: Jason Voorhees! And in the other corner, coming straight from the Crystal Lake asylum in high-waisted jeans and a thick wool sweater: Carrie White! Err- I mean, Tina Shepard! Join usssss....

Ohhhhh but he's back. The man behind the mask! Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives is a high watermark for the franchise, firing on all cylinders and delivering everything you want from a Jason Voorhees movie. Fun kills, over-the-top gags, goofy characters, and- um... A Jason that looks like he does squats.

Our undead hunk may be buried but there's a new masked madman on the scene, and here's not about to let this new crop of kids go unmurdered!

If Jason still haunts you...you're not alone. Our big unstoppable hunk is dead and buried but (bad news!) there's a new masked madman on the scene, and here's not about to let this new crop of kids go unmurdered. 

Let's face it, Friday The 13th Part V: A New Beginning is the black sheep of the franchise. It may boast one of the highest body counts, a...

It's also the movie that takes some dark turns, introduces the oh-so-wonderful archetypes that became mandatory for every, and boasts the grooviest theme song of the e...

The body count continues in Friday The 13th Part 2 when Jason Voorhees takes center stage to become one of the world's most iconic slasher villains. Join us for a campy discussion about Jason's first foray into murder, his classic baghead & overalls combo, and his cozy forest shack.

We're asking the important questions on this edition of Midnight at Camp Blood. Like, what happened to all those counselors that stayed late at the bar? Can Jason communicate with animals? Does that toilet in his shack actually flush?? Join ussss...

It's a stacked episode this week but, most importantly, we are finally digging into one of our most requested movies, and one that we waited too damn long to watch! This week, we close out our top-secret film fest with Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island (1998), and this movie really has it all. Zombies (duh), ghosts (a must), werecats (didn't see that one coming), authentic...

Kane Parson's Backrooms, the current holder of The Internet's Creepypasta Heavyweight Belt, has finally hit the big screen. Delivering a unique take on the Liminal Horror experience, Backrooms has quietly become one of the most recognizable horror properties in the world and this new feature film delves deeper into the world of those spooky hallways than ever before. But don't come looking for answers because you're going to walk away with more questions than you came to the movie with thanks to A24's patented confuse-the-hell-out-of-you movie making template.

Accidentally picking up a supernatural hitchhiker sucks even worse when your van is your fulltime house. We review André Øvredal's (Autopsy of Jane Doe, Last Voyage of the Demeter) Passenger on the latest Drive home from the Drive-In episode of the Nightmare on Film Street horror movie podcast!

Be careful what you wish for... Is what someone should have said to the love-hungry main character of OBSESSION. Curry Barker's big Hollywood feature debut follows a guy who wishes on a magical willow branch that his crush will fall utterly in love with him. And she does. But it isn't that "yes, I'll totally be your regular human girlfriend" kind of love, it's that "I'd like to hollow out your organs so I can crawl inside you like you're a big ole bird's nest" kind of love.

Damian McCarthy (Oddity) is back with another terrifying folklore-y fright with Hokum, a film that follows American author and outright asshole Ohm Bauman (Adam Scott) as he travels to a quiet inn in Ireland where his late parents spent their honeymoon in order to spread their ashes. Oh yeah, and the honeymoon suite is haunted by a witch.

Join your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon as they check into the Bates Motel for a wild 'n' weird discussion about one the strangest horror movie follow-ups ever made.

Superstar life has gone spooky in David Lowery's latest, MOTHER MARY. The film follows a pop idol (Anne Hathaway) who shows up on her ex-head designer's (Michaela Coel) doorstep only a couple nights before her comeback performance, desperate for a new dress. While the women battle it out between bolts of fabric, they try to mend (or at least a come to terms with) a lifelong friendship and business partnership that was shred to ruins over a decade prior. Oh yeah, and there might be a ghost.

And as a special treat, you can now see this...

This week on the Nightmare on Film Street horror movie podcast, your hosts Kimmi and Jon are talking brand new supernatural irish folklore horror Hokum with writer/director Damian McCarthy!

Hokum follows a disgruntled author (Adam Scott) as he travels to an Inn in rural Ireland where his deceased parents spent their honeymoon, to spread their ashes. Then spookies ensue... Like the appearance of a strange bunny with bulging eyes, a honeymoon suite with a locked gate for an entrance, and an old folktale about an evil witch who snatches children to the underworld.

You know a 1970s Italian Horror is going to go hard when its tagline is "The Corpse That Didn't Want To Die!". On this week's episode of Nightmare on Film Street, your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon laugh their way through one of the most confusing (but also, maybe one of the best) Giallos they have ever covered on the podcast.

The Red Queen Kills Seven Times (1972) is everything. It's a murder mystery, a slasher, a ghost story, a sibling rivalry tale, a cop-procedural, and a supernatural family curse all rolled into one wild ride...

Where does evil come from? Does it live within us, or is it something we give permission to enter, like a vampire or an annoying house guest who can't take the hint that the party's over and it's time to go home.

On this week's episode of Nightmare on Film Street, your horror hosts Kimmi & Jon discuss the eerie early 2000s psychological horror Session 9 (2001).

Join us on the moors this week as your horror hosts Kimmi and Jon discuss the horror-ified Sherlock Holmes classic The Hound of The Baskervilles(1959). Starring Hammer Horror icons Peter Cushing and (certified stud, according to Kimmi) Christopher Lee, this supernatural murder mystery delves into family death curses, aristocratic serial killers, and hounds from hell! Its a double-breasted eerie adventure with more outfit changes than a season of Ru Paul's Drag Race and a spooky hell hound that deeeeefinitely isn't just a regular farm dog wearing a mask.

And in the meantime, we're sharing with you the first episode of our new Fiend Club mini-series "Too Long; Didn't Watch" where we only watch the 1st act of a movie we previously skipped (because it looked too predictable) and do our best to guess how the movie ends.

We've all complained that modern horror movies are too formulaic and that Hollywood is out of original ideas, endlessly reusing overworked plots or spoon-feeding us copy+paste stories. So, rather than spend what precious little time we have left...
