A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Ryan Stacy is an amazing podcaster who covers a wide variety of horror movies. Funny, witty, and pop culture savvy; His knowledge and insight in all the ways to survive these movies coupled with talented and charismatic guests make this an incredible listen every week. I make a point to never miss an episode and have relistened to quite a few over and over again. If Ryan Stacy has no fans, then I am no longer on this earth. Love the show and can’t recommend it enough!

HIGHLY suggest if you’re a horror fan (especially of the horror classics/horror franchises) this is going on my third year listening to the podcast and the whole idea behind it (what to do if you’re in a horror movie and essentially SURVIVE it) is a great concept. The rules, the merit badges, it’s all just very well put together and most importantly ENTERTAINING. As a 90s kid who grew up watching classic horror movies this podcast is a treasure. Shout out Ryan.

I’ve been a horror fan ever since I watched Monster Squad when I was five. Scream terrified me at eight, and I lived for the day that I finally got to watch Silver Bullet. It’s great to find a podcast that analyzes horror movies the same way I always have. Love the show, always a good time!

You don’t need to be a fan of horror movies to enjoy this podcast. The banter between the hosts makes this a fun listen. The guys break down each movie at core scenes and add their person observations and takes to each. The humor each one adds has me coming back for more.
