The Movie Crypt

by ArieScope Pictures

Filmmakers Adam Green (FROZEN, the HATCHET franchise), Joe Lynch (MAYHEM, EVERLY), and Arwen the Yorkie host this inspirational and educational program that offers a fully comprehensive look at the entertainment industry, the artistic process, and the enduring struggle of not giving up on your dreams. By candidly sharing their own trials and tribulations in Hollywood, Adam and Joe create an extremely honest and heartfelt dialogue with their guests. The hilarious, heartbreaking, and therapeutic "artist on artist" conversations focus on each guest's individual journey and the various hurdles they have personally faced and conquered along the way. With guests ranging from Academy Award winners, entertainment icons, and A-list celebrities... to cinematographers, editors, studio executives, and countless other crucial positions not typically featured in the spotlight, an average episode of THE MOVIE CRYPT offers more insight for navigating the entertainment industry than an entire semester of film school. Hailed by Entertainment Weekly magazine as "one of the top 20 podcasts you should be listening to" [Issue #1345], a new episode of THE MOVIE CRYPT has been released every single Monday without fail since the day the podcast launched on May 6, 2013. This is an independent podcast that only exists thanks to the support of listeners.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Filmmakers Adam Green (Hatchet, Frozen) and Joe Lynch (Everly, Mayhem) have created something very special here. For nine years now the Movie Crypt podcast has been a funny, honest and heartfelt look at movie making. Adam, Joe, and Arwen-an adorable yorkie that is their co-host-provide an episode every week without fail. Not only is it a great show, it has created a loving community out of its Patreon supporters. Only $1 per month gets you in. If you love hanging out and geeking out over movies with a couple regular guys who love movies as much as you do, give the Movie Crypt a listen.

Jason rt · Oct 2022

Adam and Joe keep knocking it out of the park with great guests, insight into the process and business and tons of perks for fans. If this show ever stops I’ll need more than just Hollywood Therapy with Dr. Arwen

CitizenKaneHodder · Jun 2021

These boys (and Arwen) are nailing it. Sharing their experience is a priceless gift to all who have, are, or want to work in the industry (The Grand Machine or the Independent market). I have truly come to some serious realizations about what moves I may want to make next or why others led me to a dead end. Their guests offer an aspect to the industry conversations through the interviews that allows us ALL to be in the same boat...together...as equals. I appreciate Joe’s kind words and humor as well as Adam’s bluntness and pragmatism. This is a rare A+ podcast.

Comixboy · Feb 2021

I met Adam Green in 2017 and was always a lover of his films and Holliston. I was never a podcast person and this was the first I ever attempted. I can say that I honestly look forward to all of my long drives daily for work because I get to hear this. Adam and Joe are both so easy to listen to and everything they talk about is so fascinating (I’m also in no way in the film industry but being a horror and film lover hearing their interviews and shows is so interesting!). Their stories are awesome and so inspiring, definitely helped me in such times of need for wanting to move past not feeling like I was good enough to fulfill my dreams. Thanks for the shows guys and keep it coming!!

AnthonyVeeSays · Nov 2019

I was a longtime listener and an avid fan of Joe & Adam but they are not the lovable, fun duo they once were. The most obnoxious part is having to force people to give you $1 a month for full episodes, for a show that boasted it would always remain free. But a dollar is not a large sum, the lame part is Adam chastises the listeners and guilts them into donating/subscribing. And of course, as a “celebrity” is want to do, they only upload their most self indulgent episodes in their entirety so they can share all of their important opinions on the state of the world. Yippee. Bring back the old versions of our two favorite goofball horror hosts.

onomatopeizza · Jul 2022

They have great content. That’s not the problem. I stopped listening when they started wanting you to pay to hear the whole podcast. If you want to do extra stuff and put it on Patreon fine but the regular podcast should be free. Also lay of the political opinion. If I want to hear that I can go listen to Don Lemmon or Sean Hannity.
