Happy New Year! Our first episode back from the holidays, and we've made it all the way to our top 20 horror films of all-time. Which also means we will finish our full top 50 horror films of all-time series later this year. Oh how time flies when you're having fun.

Join us for this episode as we dissect yet another alien film -- Ridley Scott's introduction to a billion dollar franchise and a complete masterclass in sci-fi/horror and suspense, Alien (1979).

Oh, and this episode may just be our third official episode with a special guest, and that special guest is none other than our co-host, Adam Ragsdale's mother, Deanna Ragsdale. And she may just be an Alien fanatic.

Remember the clown epidemic that swept the United States in 2016, when clowns were spotted everywhere carrying weapons? And then, as if on cue, this film came out soon after. What a time to be alive!

"They're here!"

Talk about insane behind-the-scenes on this one. Between Director Tobe Hooper's success on The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," and the brilliant mind of Producer/Writer Steven Spielberg, Poltergeist instantly became a horror classic the moment it hit theaters in 1982.

Dive in with us as we discuss wild BTS, slimy beasts, and favorite cinematic moments from Spielberg/Hooper's Poltergiest.

Now Showing: Moulin Boo-uge, a spooky rendition of Baz Luhrmann's classic musical. And surprise! It's a double-feature, also showing: Amityville Horror 7, Directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

Seriously though, The Others combines psychological horror with "the house is haunted" and we couldn't be more thrilled to unpack one of the highest grossing Spanish movies of all-time on this week's episode.

Is this the perfect film segway into spooky season? Between the legendary tale of the Headless Horseman to Tim Burton's creative fascination with the macabre, this horror melodrama may be the easiest way to fully immerse yourself into the Halloween spirit.

In this episode, we dissect the highs and lows of Sleepy Hollow, starting with our love for the spectacular art direction and cinematography to the interesting screenplay and casting choices. All we know is, we wish we could live in the mind of Tim Burton.

John Krasinski's writer/director debut might have had us all nibbling on our popcorn in the theater, afraid we might squeak and die. That's how impactful this film was in its release.

From controversial takes about getting pregnant in a post-apocalyptic world where aliens hear everything, to almost being drowned in corn, we dissect everything we both love and scratch our heads at in this horror/sci-fi.

Oh, and we introduce two brand new special guests on this episode, and we might just be in love with them, and they might just be better at this than we are.
