A later entry into the legendary George Romero’s filmography? There is no way this could be anything less than a masterpiece… This week, Kyle subjected us to 2000’s head-scratchingly-titled BRUISER, in which a meek magazine editor gets a chance to knock off everyone who has ever inconvenienced him thanks to his crappy boss’s wife and her low-level mask-making skills. While the movie itself isn’t great, it took us on a real journey discussing the underlying social issues it tried to comment on. Was it successful? Unclear, but at least we got to wax poetic about it on the show. Let’s get psycho(analyzed)! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ever have that feeling of standing in a video store aisle, staring at a box with wild artwork, hoping you’re about to discover a hidden gem? That’s the spirit Horror Movie Night channels every episode. Hosts Matt, Scott, and Kyle from Geekscape are your guides through the highs and lows of the genre, from forgotten oddities to beloved classics. They fully commit to the gamble, so you get the genuine excitement of a surprising find like *American Gothic* right alongside the shared misery of a baffling flop like *Terror Toons*. The dynamic is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on friends passionately debating a movie they just rented, capturing that specific blend of nostalgia and snark. Listening to this podcast feels like a weekly hangout where the conversation is fueled by cinematic scares and genuine laughs. You’ll hear their immediate reactions, the tangents, and the camaraderie that turns even the most disappointing film into an entertaining experience. It’s a comedy and film discussion wrapped in the worn-out VHS tape of memory, perfect for anyone who misses the ritual of picking a movie based solely on its cover.
