In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, we dive headfirst into the chaos of Deadstream (2022), a found-footage horror-comedy that turns livestreaming into a literal fight for survival. When disgraced YouTuber Shawn Ruddy locks himself in a haunted house to win back his fans, he quickly learns that views aren't worth dying for—and that ghosts don’t care about subscriber counts.

We break down the film’s satire on influencer culture, why this movie works surprisingly well despite its chaotic energy, and how Deadstream manages to balance jump scares with social commentary. It’s messy, meta, and just unhinged enough to keep us watching.

Featuring the theme “Influencers: When Going Viral Gets Violent,” this episode is part of our July lineup exploring the horrors of online fame.

Danielle’s brand is all about wellness and positivity—but when her old high school friends come knocking, so do the skeletons in her influencer closet. This week on Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan kick off July’s “Influencers” theme with New Year, New You, a twisted take on curated identities, performative friendships, and how fast a vision board can turn into a crime scene.

We’re breaking down every scene, from the #SlayTheDay intro to that unhinged final act, talking about social toxicity, girl group dynamics, and why you should never trust a wellness coach with perfect lighting.

In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan dive into Exhibit A (2007), a chilling found-footage drama that slowly unravels the psychological breakdown of a suburban father. Filmed like a home video gone horribly wrong, this under-the-radar British horror story delivers a terrifyingly intimate look at domestic collapse.

How does the film build tension with such a slow burn? Why does the father's descent feel so disturbingly real? And does this fit our "Dads Are Deadly" theme… or blow it wide open? Let’s press play and find out.

What’s more terrifying than a killer dad? A killer dad who thinks he’s the perfect one. This week, we’re diving into The Stepfather (1987), where suburban bliss gets a bloody wake-up call. Jerry Blake just wants the perfect family—but if they disappoint him, he’ll just… start over.

Join Talon and Dan as they break down the red flags, the creepy charm, and the sheer horror of a man who takes “father figure” way too seriously. It’s part of our June theme, Dads Are Deadly, and this one earns its spot on the list.

This week, we’re diving into The Clovehitch Killer (2018), a slow-burn psychological thriller about a teenage boy who starts to suspect that his all-American dad might be hiding something... like a history of murder. We talk about the film’s eerie tone, the impact of silence and suggestion, and how this movie flips the script on the classic serial killer narrative. Dan has opinions about family loyalty, and Talon has questions—lots of them.

New episodes every Tuesday as we explore horror films one theme at a time. June’s theme? Dads Are Deadly. And this one… might just be the most believable of them all.

This week, we're kicking off our June theme, Dads Are Deadly, with Frailty (2001)—a twisted tale of faith, family, and a whole lot of murder. Is Dad a demon-slaying prophet on a mission from God… or just a dangerous man with a rusty pipe and a warped sense of purpose?

Talon and Dan dive into the movie’s religious undertones, that infamous “God Pipe,” and narration that is "alright, alright, alright." There’s suspense, speculation, and plenty of sarcasm as we explore one of the most underrated psychological horror films of the early 2000s.

New episodes drop every Tuesday.

It’s another trip to the lake… and this one might make Lake of Death look like a masterpiece. In Part 1 of our Fever Lake breakdown, Talon and Dan wade into the shallow, murky waters of this 1997 straight-to-video horror movie starring—yes, that's actually Mario Lopez and Corey Haim.

We had so much to say about this movie—mostly because it's just that awful—that we had to split the episode into two parts. From confusing psychic visions to a half-baked curse and performances that left us speechless (in a bad way), Fever Lake gave us more material than it probably deserved.

Part 2 drops Wednesday, and trust us—you’re going to want to hear how this cursed mess wraps up. Or at least spirals into chaos.
