Where would this show be without forgotten Thing ripoffs boasting 3 minutes of Doug Bradley in full head makeup choking on tentacles that look like humongous earthworms? In honor (we guess) of its 30-year anniversary, the boys were once again talked into discussing a movie none of them had seen before by friend of the show/past guest Benji, the one and only PROTEUS (1995)! Based on the book SLIMER by Harry Adam Knight, the film version borrows as much from Raimi as it does Carpenter, to varying degrees of success. It’s all worth it for the last 15 minutes of absolute ridiculousness. Come on, we’re investigating this creepy abandoned oil rig with our fanny pack full of drugs - what could go wrong?

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.
