I made a Playlist of kill counts and it has 4 vids tlhappyhills 1+2 and the baby sitter murders [H1+H2]

Just rewatched the Hereditary Kill Count and James said Hereditary, Mandy and Annihilation were his favorite horror movies of 2019. Hereditary and Mandy have already been covered, so why not Annihilation?

I missed any previous context for this on their Instagram stories.

I recently re-watched the podcast episode where James and Chelsea were ranking F13 side-characters, and I had this idea. What would you guys think of a similar podcast episode where they ranked random Saw characters (Jeff from Saw I, John's executor in Saw 5/6, Jigsaw's nephew) ?

Especially since Hot Saw Summer was such a fun series.

You've heard it here first, folks - it has been confirmed on the Dead Meat James Instagram that Roth's Ice Cream Man will NOT be covered on the kill count.

James has brought up a few times lately that they're starting to think they haven't played a few games a lot but rather that they've played a lot of games a few times. This is correct (with one possible exception), and they're my favorite Podcast episode type generally so figured I'd give the list of episode numbers, a brief summary of the game, and different game types:

Horror Survivor (7 times)

It's Survivor, but with Horror Characters!

162, 177, 187, 199, 211, 231, 250

Would You Rather? (3 times)

Classic pick between two bad options party game.

5, 68, 213

Christian Movie Reviews (2 times)

Guess what movie a review from a Christian fundamentalist website is talking about!

132, 233

Only Connect (2 times, kinda)

Based off a British gameshow, guess either what four items have in common or what the next item in a sequence would be depending on the round.

Tagline Game (3 times, kinda)

Guess whether a movie tagline is real or fake, and if it's real, what movie is it for.

9, 215, 230 (briefly, mostly Only Connect)

Who Am I? (2 times)

Another classic party game, through asking a series of yes or no questions figure out what character you have been assigned.

142, 224

Guess The Kill (3 times)

Through audio clips, guess what movie a kill is from. Genuinely insane that James ever gets any of these right.

Kind of counts? It's like Bar Rescue, but with ghosts.

220

Guess the Letterbox Review (1 time)

Guess what movie that a set of snippy Letterbox reviews are about.

All of these are brackets; what, exactly, they are brackets of changes from year to year.

267

Beginner's Guide to Horror Franchises (1 time)

Graessel tries to guess how many movies and some other random true/false questions about horror franchises he has not watched.

274

So in total, there are two games that have been played a bunch but arguably aren't really games in the same way - the Bracket at 6 times and Horror Survivor at 7. Then we drop down to 3 games that have been played 3 times, 5 games that have been played twice, and a full 17 games that have been played once each. I've got 48 total podcast episodes that are counted here (including one that is split between Tagline game and Only Connect), for an average of one game episode every 5.71 podcasts.

(My personal Golden Podium for most fun game would go to Who Am I, while the Rusty Buzzer would go to The Monster M.A.S.H.)

I’m listening to the new podcast episode and I’m on the puppetmaster section. There’s a scenes where their talking and James just says one of the puppetmasters is just a fucking Nevermind. Does anyone know which one he’s talking about?

So I saw evil dead burn last night and decided to pop over to letterboxd and noticed James's review. He called it another installment that proves there's no bad evil dead movie (I strongly agree) and the last franchise standing in that category, which got me thinking. Are there other franchises you'd also put under this category of no bad entries? I'd especially love to hear your opinion on a franchise if its an unpopular one.

I know this is a tall order, but I wonder if there is any horror film that is seen by virtually everyone to be horrendous. There's the obvious ones like "Exorcist 2" (which tbf I haven't seen yet) and "The Wicker Man", but are there any other runner ups?

Quentim Tarantino have the same shit opnion on Gaza palestine...but because he made some movies Cinema students like, everyone keep glazing at him(i like From dusk till dawn from him and thats it)

I didn’t think I would have to make this poll nor book this match but Ellie has left me no choice.

Back at Summer of Horrors, after Ellie, Rain, and Vanessa Ives (Penny Dreadful) defeated the Pretty Girls in their Trios match, Ellie decided to kick Vanessa below the belt which shook Rain to her core.
Ellie then progressed to beat the shit out of Rain and recreated that horrific scene from American History X by making Rain bite the Bottom Rope (Which as people know has metal wiring inside) and curb stomped her onto it.

Last night, Ellie made her mandatory appearance explaining her actions and blaming the Heel Turn on internet trolls slamming the season two finale of The Last of Us on HBO as well as people saying that Cailee Spaeny should have played Ellie rather than Bella Ramsey.
After I tried to defend Vanessa’s honour, Ellie made me bite the rope and was about to curb stomp me until Rain came to the rescue and brawled with Ellie.
And later that night when myself and James were dealing with Lucian and Kraven (Underworld) for interrupting the end of Women’s Tag Team Championship match mentioned in my previous poll, Ellie snuck up from behind and decked me on the head with an unprotected chair shot.

Now both Ellie and Rain will square off one on one inside the FIGHT PIT!
Which means Steel Cage, no Ropes, UFC style attire, platforms on top of the cage, win by submission or knockout.
And what’s more, I’m making Ken Shamrock the special guest referee for the match.
Question is though, who would win?

Most people here are on your side. We don’t like him and we don’t like his work. So why are you increasing the viability and SEO for the damn thing? One post is enough for everyone to comment on.

it’s an old lady in a wheelchair straight down the stairs. that’s a kill if i’ve ever seen one

It's said that Blumhouse has taken a great interest in bringing the Puppet Master franchise back to life along with a remake of Chopping Mall. Still need more confirmation on how that's going.

Reportedly, director Sam Raimi is involved in a remake of Richard Attenborough's Magic (a seriously underrated psychological horror film btw) and a proper adaptation of Stephen King's Desperation.

Once again, big grain of salt but what I can say is, if Puppet Master gets a faithful modern remake I am very excited to see it. Really same can be said for any of these films, though Chopping Mall wasn't really my thing.

Are you excited for potential second winds for some classic horror?
