This week, My Bloody Podcast hangs a stocking over the fireplace and then promptly sets it on fire. In a very special, tinsel-drenched episode, we lean all the way into the holiday spirit with Silent Night, Deadly Night, a brand new remake of the 1984 Christmas-horror chestnut now resurrected, sharpened, and sent back down the chimney by a returning champion of the show, Mike P. Nelson.

Today, we’re rolling out the proverbial red carpet for someone making his debut appearance on My Bloody Podcast, director Stephen Shimek. If the name rings a bell, don’t worry, you’re not suffering from cinematic déjà vu. You’ve probably stumbled across Invitation to a Murder, The Maze, Joey and Ella, or the delightfully enigmatic The Magician’s Raincoat. Yes, Stephen made those. And if that’s not enough, he’s also married to Kristy Shimek. The editor, a frequent guest, and the unofficial patron saint of making directors look good in post.

Joining us for this canine-and-carbine opera are two men who know their way around both a frame and a fight. Aaron Eckhart, the square-jawed statesman of The Dark Knight, Erin Brockovich, and Thank You for Smoking, and the film’s director John Stahlberg Jr., who has quietly been constructing a small universe of his own with the Muzzle franchise.

In Episode #184 of My Bloody Podcast, we plunge scalpels-first into John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982), a film that has aged better than most of its human characters. We roam through the eerie lineage of the story, revisiting the 1950s original, back when aliens were tall, wooden, and shaped vaguely like your uncle’s coat rack, and marvel at the alternate-universe casting choices that nearly befell Carpenter’s classic. Yes, somewhere in a parallel dimension, Jay Leno is squinting suspiciously across a snowbank, and we should all be grateful we don’t live there.

There are few things more sacred in the horror podcasting world than two friends on a long phone call dissecting a film where a creepy man also loves to make phone calls. On Episode #183 of My Bloody Podcast, Chelsea and I pick up our proverbial Black Phones and dial directly into the cultural juggernaut currently haunting theaters. The Black Phone 2.

On Episode #182 of My Bloody Podcast, two death-defying dolls, Bryan Kluger and Chelsea, pick up their metaphorical scalpels to stitch together their thoughts on May, the 2002 horror film that nobody remembers except, of course, Bryan Kluger. (This is a man who spent twenty years watching nothing but horror movies and occasionally, when the moon was right, eating chicken wings.)

On Episode #181 of My Bloody Podcast, the trio of cinematic slashers, Bryan, Preston, and Chelsea, sneak up on 2016’s Hush, Mike Flanagan’s lean, mean, and surprisingly quiet home-invasion thriller. You might remember Hush as the film that came after Oculus (the haunted mirror one) and before Flanagan ascended to Netflix sainthood with The Haunting of Hill House. It’s the movie that whispered, literally, “Oh, this guy’s good.”

Episode #180 of My Bloody Podcast is, to put it lightly, a pumpkin-spiced fever dream. It’s that time of year again, spooky season, when the air smells faintly of nutmeg, Spirit Halloween stores rise from the dead in defunct Pier 1 Imports, and every barista becomes a horror enthusiast with an oat milk frother. Naturally, we leaned into the madness and tackled one of the more bewildering entries in the Halloween cinematic multiverse. It was Halloween 6. Or Halloween 666.Or Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, depending on which president was in office when you were born.
