When we were together for our live show, we took the opportunity to record a pair of in-person Shocktober episodes, and here's the second! We had a lot of fun trying to untangle FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S 2, which is based on a video game none of us know much about and the sequel to a movie 2/3rds of us hadn't seen! Perfect Flop House conditions.

When we were all in Louisville together for our live show, we took the opportunity to record a pair of Shoctober episodes all together in person, and this is the first one! What happens when the only version of Dracula that Luc Besson seems to be familiar with is "Bram Stoker's Dracula?" We get DRACULA (2026), which takes all the extra nonsense from the Coppola version and adds some more French nonsense on top of it.

We welcome esteemed illustrator and comics artist Felipe Sobreiro to take on more of those INFERNAL GOOFS! And because Felipe's most recent project is the wonderful new Toxic Avenger comic, all of these goofs are related to mutant movies! Just because your movie's filled with mutations, that's no excuse for goofs!

Much like a horror movie villain, the Scream movies refuse to die, even though with every new sequel the films shed more of what that made the franchise special and the whole thing just becomes a regular ol' slasher series. Eventually you get late installments like SCREAM 7. Some have called it the worst Scream of all! Will we agree?

We say goodbye to Smalltember with a true bad movie jewel (thanks to Alonso Duralde for recommending it) -- the kid/tween/teen musical comedy STANDING OVATION, one of the few movies about a singing competition that also makes room for a mob subplot and a child who threatens people with deadly animals. What a magical picture.
