Todd and Becca met and fell in love over their shared love of horror (among other things, I guess), so it only makes sense to channel that passion into a podcast that seeks to review every horror movie ever made.So join two married, antisocial weirdos on this silly journey to share their love of horror, and each other, with strangers on the internet.Each episode starts with a spoiler free review and content warning, so don’t be scared. Look for new episodes every Thursday!
Resident Evil (2026) | Setting the standard for videogame adaptations

We guess horror movie titles based on Letterboxd reviews: 2020's edition | Reviews: Buffet Infinity, Touch Me
October is almost here, but we've got time for one more Spoiler Free Speedrun before the Halloween season starts!
For September we're revisiting Shitterboxd, because who am I to deny Becca what she wants? And since we couldn't come up with a theme, and we just so happen to also be covering a couple of 2026 movies, we're sticking with horror movies from the 2020's as we pull the best and worst Letterboxd reviews we can find.
So join us for our love/hate relationship with short form movie reviews on the internet, and let's see...
Alien Resurrection (1997) | Can we please let Sigourney Weaver make love to an alien
Two centuries after her death, a powerful human/alien hybrid clone of Ellen Ripley aids a crew of space pirates in stopping the aliens from reaching Earth.

We debate our top horror movies of all time | Reviews: Faces of Death, Exit 8
It's the last week of August, and that can only mean one thing - it's time to (playfully) argue with each other and review some horror movies!
This month, we're forgoing a game and instead revisiting THE LIST. Each episode, we add the title we're reviewing to our massive Letterboxd list and rank it against every other horror movie we've covered. And unfortunately, that list has become ungainly enough that maybe we've lost sight of the bigger picture.
So join us today as we try to come up with a more sensible ordering, and let's...
It Ends (2025) | Life is a highway full of existential dread
Friends on a late-night food run become trapped on an infinite highway with otherworldly terrors lurking beyond. Confined in their Jeep Cherokee, they must decide whether to accept their fate or attempt escape.
