Horror Movie Crew Studios

This week, the Crew sinks their teeth into The Wolf Man (2025), the latest Universal Monsters reboot starring Christopher Abbott and directed by Leigh Whannell. With a blend of suspense, gore, and some very hairy family drama, this one left us howling—and maybe even sympathizing—with the monster.

Plus, we debut HMC Vampire Hunters – Episode 3: “Late Checkout”, where the gang faces off against a terrifying new breed—vampire werewolves—running a cursed roadside motel. Wooden stakes aren't enough this time, and Seth might have finally met his match in a lycanthropic line cook.

Josh breaks down wolf tran...

This week, the Crew dives into Heretic (2024), A24’s tense psychological horror-thriller starring Hugh Grant, Chloe East, and Sophie Thatcher. What starts as a simple door-to-door mission turns into a twisted battle of beliefs, manipulation, and survival. With a creepy attic, a bloodstained confession booth, and more questions than answers, this one gave us plenty to chew on.

Also in this episode: HMC Vampire Hunters – Episode 2: “Blood & Buns” where the gang takes on a group of fang-toothed fiends hiding out in a bakery. Exploding vampires, enchanted bagels, and Jess’s electrified undergarments—what more could you want?

Seth t...

This week, the Crew checks into House on Haunted Hill (1999)—a remake with a haunted mansion, twitchy ghosts, and CGI that hasn’t exactly aged like fine wine. From Geoffrey Rush’s full Vincent Price cosplay to Famke Janssen’s lethal glam, we break down every wild twist, blood-soaked hallway, and bad decision that makes this one a ‘90s horror time capsule.

Plus, we run through the cast and where you’ve seen them before, dive into some behind-the-scenes madness, and talk about how Chris Kattan somehow ends up being one of the best parts of the movie. Yeah…...

This week, the crew takes on Companion (2024)—a sci-fi horror thriller that throws its characters (and the audience) into a mind-bending fight for survival. With eerie atmosphere, unexpected twists, and plenty to dissect, did this one leave us impressed or just confused?

Plus, Josh can’t stop talking about how much he loves Sophie Thatcher, and Seth may or may not have ordered a robot. It’s a weird one—tune in to find out!

Have you seen Companion? Let us know what you thought!

In this episode, the crew dives into Strange Darling (2024)—a cat-and-mouse thriller that wastes no time throwing you into its twisted game. With tension, mystery, and some unexpected surprises, this one had us talking. Did it live up to the hype, or did it leave us wanting more?

Also, will Jess actually make it to this episode, or has she vanished again for reasons unknown? Tune in to find out!

HMCP 152 - Salem’s Lot (2024)

This week, Josh and Seth sink their teeth into Salem’s Lot (2024)—the latest adaptation of Stephen King's classic tale about a writer returning to his hometown, only to discover it's being overrun by vampires. Did this long-awaited remake live up to the hype, or was it dead on arrival?

Meanwhile, Jess mysteriously missed this recording… was she avoiding the vampire talk, or is she secretly roaming the night now? We may never know.

Have you seen Salem’s Lot (2024)? Let us know your thoughts!

The Crew is back, and Seth & Josh are diving into the 27 most anticipated horror movies of 2025! From long-awaited sequels to brand-new nightmares, they break down what’s coming, what looks promising, and what might be a total disaster. Will this be a killer year for horror, or are we in for some major letdowns? Tune in to find out!

Plus, for our Patreon Crewbies—more episodes are still coming this month to make up for January! Stay tuned for extra content as our way of saying thanks for sticking with us.

The crew tackles the much-anticipated Terrifier 3! In this episode, we review the movie and attempt to break it down scene by scene—though things get a little rocky. Why? Because Seth and Josh did not enjoy the movie. Thankfully, Jess loved it and did her best to keep the conversation on track!

Whether you loved it, hated it, or haven’t seen it yet, this episode is full of unfiltered opinions, hilarious banter, and classic HMC vibes.

After a long hiatus since May, the crew is back and better than ever! In this laugh filled reunion episode, we dive into all the 2024 horror releases, share our thoughts on the movies we’ve seen, and reflect on what’s been going on in our lives. Josh’s hair grew back (but he’s losing his mind), Seth’s still obsessed with massages, Jess is all about explicit videos, and awkward conversations are still not Josh’s thing.

It’s classic HMC—full of laughs, nostalgia, and unfiltered takes on horror and life.
