Scream King Kyle Gallner Appreciation Society by Chillennial Horrors
You can't say we don't deliver on our promises. This episode, we revisited all the 2000s horror movies that made Kyle Gallner into our fave scream king (with the notable exception of A Nightmare On Elm Street, which we covered in Episode 3) and then dove into the evolution of Kyle, from 2009 to 2022.
K-horror: So Much For Your Happy Ending by Chillennial Horrors
By Episode 20 - K-horror: So Much For Your Happy Ending by Chillennial Horrors This episode, it's all supernatural business all the time as we revisit South Korean horror movies of the 2000s. Your watchlist: A Tale Of Two Sisters (2003) R-Point (2004) The Host (2006) Hansel & Gretel (2007) Thirst (2009) Spoilers abound, and also the Unfriended ghost plagued us a bit this episode so there's a bit of extra crackle on the audio... call it the Halloween spirit.

Vampires vs werewolves: Bloodsuckers in Mad Men suits by Chillennial Horrors
We're baaaaaaaack! Yes, we know, and we're sorry, it's been ages, we've got loads of excuses. But let's just get straight to the movies. In our second episode focused on vampires and werewolves, we cover the meaner and less sexy side of the genre. We're talking Ginger Snaps: Unleashed (2004), 30 Days Of Night (2007), Let The Right One In (2008) and Daybreakers (2009). And there's not a single leather catsuit in sight!

Why Are You Doing This To Us? by Chillennial Horrors
By Episode 1 - Why Are You Doing This To Us? by Chillennial Horrors What do you think of when you think about "00s horror"? That's what Jonathan Hatfull and Sarah Dobbs hope to unpack through this brand new shiny podcast series. In this first episode, we explain what 00s horror means to us, why we think it's interesting, and a bit about what's to come. Yes, this whole half hour episode is basically a trailer. But we're very excited about what happens next! Music: Doors Of Skin by Complexi-Tales
A Splat Pack Wrap-Up by Chillennial Horrors
It's a Chillennial Horrors double feature! We close out our Splat Pack series with the 00s horrors of Alexandre Aja and Greg McLean. Sarah and Jonathan brace themselves for the blood, the screaming, the mutant cannibals, the backpack killers and the killer croc of High Tension/Switchblade Romance (2003), The Hills Have Eyes (2006), Mirrors (2008), Wolf Creek (2005) and Rogue (2007). Does High Tension's twist still work, if it ever did? Are we here for the gruelling nastiness of breakdown horrors?
Remember 1999? Y2K terrors, the dawn of a new millennium... and, for some reason, a load of horror movie remakes. In this first proper episode, Jonathan Hatfull and Sarah Dobbs revisit The Haunting and House On Haunted Hill, marvel at the audacity of setting up a production company just to remake William Castle movies, and try to find something good about The Fog. And while we're on the topic of supernatural 2000s remakes, we also chat about Thirteen Ghosts, Ghost Ship, and The Amityville Horror.
Don't Stop Driving: Platinum Dunes and remaking every slasher ever by Chillennial Horrors
Remakes! There are loads of them! More than we imagined when we started planning this podcast! This episode, we tackle Platinum Dunes and the slasher revival, via Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), House of Wax (2005), Prom Night (2008), My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009), Friday the 13th (2009), and the ever-controversial Nightmare On Elm Street (2010). There might've been more, too. Honestly, there are tons.
Vampires vs werewolves: A surplus of leather trousers by Chillennial Horrors
By Episode 18 - Vampires vs werewolves: A surplus of leather trousers by Chillennial Horrors We're back, and we're starting another new mini series! This time round, it's vampires vs werewolves, and we're kicking it off with some of the decade's earliest entries in the genre: Dracula 2000 (2000) (aka Dracula 2001), Blade II (2002), Queen Of The Damned (2002), and Underworld (2003). Yes, that's a lot of leather trousers. Music: Doors Of Skin by Complexi-Tales
Found footage: Grief is always hiding in the background by Chillennial Horrors
By Episode 17 - Found footage: Grief is always hiding in the background by Chillennial Horrors In the final episode of our found footage mini series, Sarah and Jonathan revisit two of the best regarded sad horrors of the subgenre: Noroi: The Curse, and Lake Mungo. You'll never look at blurry VHS footage in the same way again. Also: send more ectoplasmic worms. Music: Doors Of Skin by Complexi-Tales
Found footage: Fast zombies, slow zombies, and maybe not zombies at all by Chillennial Horrors
Run, or walk briskly, away from the monsters in our latest episode as we look back at found footage zombie (or at least "infected") movies REC and George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead. Jump scares, foregrounded social commentary, and...it's probably tonsilitis, right? Music: Doors Of Skin by Complexi-Tales
Halloween Special: Blood, angst and monsters in Ginger Snaps and May by Chillennial Horrors
Happy Halloween! We get seasonal with an outsider double bill with werewolf coming of age movie Ginger Snaps and lonely monster-making horror May. A lot of big emotions, a lot of blood...do these teenage favourites stand up to the test of time? Music: Doors Of Skin by Complexi-Tales

That's right, Paranormal Activity's Micah might be one of the worst boyfriends in horror history.

Is the squaddies vs werewolves action-horror-comedy hybrid still tons of fun? Does the claustrophobic tension and sheer terror of The Descent hold up now that we've been locked inside our homes for over a year?

Episode 10 - The Splat Pack Series: Hanging Upside Down with Cliff Barnes With some serious trepidation, Sarah and Jonathan revisit former favourites Cabin Fever (2002) and Hostel (2005), plus Hostel Part II, to see how they stand up in the cold light of 2021. This episode, Cliff Barnes, head devil of horror podcast Devil Times Five, joins us for a chat that somehow ends up being mostly about Eli Roth's face.

Episode 8 - The Splat Pack Series: Three Rob Zombies Being Chased By Rob Zombie with CJ Lines
Episode 8 - The Splat Pack Series: Three Rob Zombies Being Chased By Rob Zombie with CJ Lines Horror got nasty in the mid-2000s. We knew we wouldn't be able to fit everything we wanted to say about the torture porn (or "gorno") wave into one episode, so instead we'll be doing a whole series looking at the key directors and franchises that emerged during that period. First up? Rob Zombie.
