Welcome back to the Horror Project Podcast!

This week, Laura and Phil take on the cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). When teens(!?) Mike and Debbie witness a comet crash near their small town, they uncover a bizarre invasion—aliens disguised as sinister circus clowns. Unsurprisingly, no one believes them.

It’s a first-time watch for both hosts, so we’re asking: is this a hidden gem or one we’ve somehow managed to avoid for good reason?

We chat about the unforgettable clown designs, the inventive practical effects, the strange antics of the Terenzi brothers, and even a touch of small-town romance thrown into the chaos. Plus, we compare these killer clowns to other iconic horror favourites.

Thanks for listening!

Welcome back to The Horror Project Podcast!

This week, Laura and Phil are diving into Hokum (2026), a folk-horror mystery packed with witches, ghosts, and more than a few things that go bump in the night.

The film follows Ohm Bauman (Adam Scott), a bitter and cynical author who travels to a remote hotel in rural Ireland to scatter his parents' ashes. What should be a simple trip soon turns into something far more sinister when he becomes entangled in the terrifying legend of a witch said to haunt the hotel's locked honeymoon suite.

Along the way, we wrestle with our Yorkshire accents while attempting to pronounce Hokum, explore the rich folklore woven throughout the film, and unpack the ghosts that continue to haunt Ohm. Plus, we discuss the unforgettable Jack the Jackass, whose appearances are every bit as unsettling as they are bizarre!

So grab your room key, avoid the honeymoon suite, and join us as we delve into this eerie tale of grief, folklore, and supernatural terror.

Welcome back to The Horror Project Podcast! This week, Laura and Phil head back to the gloriously trashy mid-00s for June’s Listener’s Choice pick — House of Wax (2005), chosen by @horror_geek_1987 AKA Hannah.

As part of our “Scary Summer!” theme, we’re checking into the creepy ghost town of Ambrose, where six college friends discover that roadside attractions really should come with warning labels. Broken-down cars, deranged brothers and molten wax murders.

We chat nostalgic 2000s horror vibes, the film’s sibling dynamics and good vs evil themes, plus the one and only Paris Hilton — her performance, her iconic star power, and why the 00s truly belonged to her for a minute there.

Step into the shadows with The Horror Project Podcast as hosts Laura and Phil dive headfirst into Candyman (1992)—because some urban legends really should stay untested.

Lured by whispered superstitions and housing-project folklore, graduate student Helen sets out to investigate the myth of the mysterious, one-armed Candyman. What starts as academic curiosity quickly spirals into a full-blown waking nightmare as brutal murders pile up and reality starts to crack.

In this episode, we track Helen’s descent into Candyman’s world, ask what is going on with her truly awful relationship with the equally awful Trevor, and break down how legends are born, fed, and weaponised. And of course, we salute Tony Todd for delivering one of horror’s most iconic performances—charismatic, terrifying, and unforgettable in all his full, sexy glory.

Thanks for listening—and maybe don’t say his name.

Welcome back to the Horror Project Podcast! This week, Laura and Phil are reviewing Obsession (2026).

Bear, a lonely music store employee, stumbles across a mysterious supernatural toy that promises to grant his heart's deepest desire: making his childhood friend Nikki finally fall in love with him. What could possibly go wrong? As it turns out... absolutely everything.

And it's a very special episode because we're celebrating our 200th episode of the podcast! After 200 horror movies, countless scares, the big question remains: has Laura become any braver? The evidence may surprise you...

We chat about the temptation of getting everything you wish for, why forcing love is always a terrible idea, and just how far someone might go to escape the dreaded friend zone.

Along the way, we follow Bear and the wonderfully "Freaky Nikki" through a whirlwind romance that's equal parts sweet, creepy, and catastrophically doomed. Expect supernatural chaos, shocking scares, and a healthy dose of heartbreak.

Thank you for joining us for 200 episodes of horror, laughs, and good times. We couldn't have done it without you!

Welcome back to the Horror Project Podcast! This week, Laura and Phil are diving into Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026).

After surviving the fiery nightmare that wiped out her in-laws, Grace wakes up in hospital shaken, scarred, and very much not done with deadly family games. Thanks to one sinister little bylaw, her survival triggers an even bigger and bloodier round of hide-and-seek — this time against a circle of ruthless elite families all clawing for ultimate power.

Joining Grace this time is her estranged sister Faith, and we get into all the messy family tension, emotional baggage, and sibling chaos that unfolds throughout the film.

We also break down the sequel question: does Ready or Not 2 actually earn its place, or should they have quit while they were ahead with the original?
Plus, we chat about the film’s colourful lineup of hunters, including power-hungry siblings Titus and Ursula, whose own twisted rivalry adds plenty of fuel to the fire.

Welcome back to The Horror Project Podcast.

This week, Laura and Phil review They Will Kill You (2026)—a dark and mysterious tale set inside a New York high-rise with a troubling past. When an ex-convict takes a housekeeping job at the eerie Virgil Hotel, she soon discovers she’s stepped into a place marked by disappearances and something far more sinister.

We explore the film’s creepy cult elements, break down the talented cast (and a few interesting accent choices), and take a closer look at the strange inner workings of the building—yes, including that pig head on a stick. We also follow Asia’s mission to rescue her sister Maria, complete with some seriously impressive action moments.

Along the way, we compare the film to John Wick, Kill Bill, and Ready or Not, as we discuss how it blends action and horror.

We’re back with May’s Listener’s Choice episode—shoutout to @moon.cherie1, @tmdbpodcast, and @elenablvck_ for the pick! For our “Ghosts & Ghouls!!!” theme, we’re diving straight into The Fog (1980)…

As a tiny California coastal town gears up for its centenary celebrations, the vibes take a sharp turn: objects start moving on their own, Rev. Malone uncovers a not-so-cute secret about the town’s past, Stevie Wayne spots a very ominous fire, and poor Elizabeth stumbles across a very dead fisherman. And then? A glowing, mysterious fog rolls in…

We dig into everything—the vengeful ghosts terrorising Antonio Bay, KAB Radio holding it down, and the one and only legend Stevie Wayne, plus a delightfully chaotic group of locals all trying to figure out what this fog’s deal actually is.

We must discuss Tom Atkins and Jamie Lee Curtis’ truly baffling whirlwind romance. Sir. Be honest. How are you pulling this off?!?!
