What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Outstanding analysis. Riveting throughout. Not pretentious neither. Will be listening to more episodes in the future.

Jakob Soldjdicjha · Jan 2026

I really enjoyed your Blue Velvet review—it was thoughtful, engaging, and a great listen, especially as the first episode I heard from you. But when I got to The Shining episode, I was honestly disappointed. It ended up being one of the worst podcast episodes I’ve come across. It felt dominated by one guest’s thesis paper on race, representation, equality, and sexism—ideas that, while important in their own right, completely overshadowed any real discussion of the film itself. I was looking forward to hearing your take on The Shining and maybe some fresh insight, but the episode dragged on with very little focus on the actual movie. It might be worth redoing that episode with a more balanced approach.

I first heard about this pod when Tim was a guest on the Evolution of Horror’s Patreon episode about Roger Corman (RIP) and The Masque of the Red Death. I was so excited because when the S&S list came out, I thought it’d be great to slowly work my way through the list but it’s way more fun to do so with such a knowledgeable and engaging guide. I got my mom (also a huge horror and film fan) to join me in watching each movie and then listening to the episode. We’ve just watched Blue Velvet and Rashomon this weekend, two HUGE gaps in my movie-viewing life that I was delighted to finally fill. Loved Mike’s guest shot on the Blue Velvet ep and I'm looking forward to hearing the discussion about Rashomon on my walk tomorrow morning. The one-film-per-month format makes it really doable, too. Looking forward to the next 98 films!
