ScreamQueenz Resurrection - BLOODY NEW YEAR (1987) - "Everything seems so stupid..."

Author: Patrick K. Walsh January 2, 2026 Duration: 1:11:36

Travel back in time to January 21, 2015 as I release another vintage episode from the ScreamQueenz Vaults.

This time I'm unearthing a classic holiday-themed segment from Episode 129 on the 1987 British weirdfest BLOODY NEW YEAR.

A day of sailing turns into a never-ending nightmare for a group of shipwrecked teens who find themself trapped at a haunted island hotel that seems to be stuck in time at midnight on New Year's Eve, 1959.

The video box promised "The Shining Meets Evil Dead".

They lied.

I was a lot meaner in 2015 than I am now, so this episode is gonna get ugly.

My special guest is infamous filmmaker/podcaster BRYAN WOLFORD. Be sure to check him out on the MIDNIGHT DRIVE IN.

BLOODY NEW YEAR is currently streaming for free on YouTube.
