  • Unknown Broadcast | Fear in the Dark: 4 Horror Stories About Shadows, Silence, and Survival

    Unknown Broadcast | Fear in the Dark: 4 Horror Stories About Shadows, Silence, and Survival
    Jun 29 2025
    Hello again, my dear.

    Tonight, I ask you to do something very simple:
    Turn out the lights.

    Now listen closely… because in this episode, we descend into the places light forgets—where silence has a voice, and fear finds you by feel alone.

    These four tales are stitched together by the same creeping thread: darkness. The kind that hides your worst thoughts. Or worse… listens to them.

    🔹 In the Dark
    A man alone in a sealed room with a single candle. What happens when the flame goes out?
    He hopes he’s imagining things. He isn’t.
    🔹 The Dark Chamber
    A closed-off room at the end of a hallway begins to whisper… and a curious mind becomes a haunted one.
    🔹 One Dark Night
    Two strangers meet during a citywide blackout. But someone’s not telling the truth—and someone’s not getting out.
    🔹 The Whole Town’s Sleeping (by Ray Bradbury)
    A summer night in a quiet town turns deadly as “The Lonely One” stalks the streets.
    A masterwork in slow, building dread from one of horror’s finest voices.

    So press play. But keep a light nearby, my dear.Just in case the dark decides to press back.

    👁️ Perfect For Fans Of:
    Ray Bradbury • Psychological horror • The Twilight Zone • Creeping dread • Lights Out radio plays

  • Do You Even Movie? | JAWS: The Revenge (1987) Summer Horror Gone Wild!

    Do You Even Movie? | JAWS: The Revenge (1987) Summer Horror Gone Wild!
    Jun 27 2025
    🦈 “This time… It’s personal!”

    We’re kicking off Life’s A Beach Month—our annual dive into the most outrageous, overlooked, and sun-soaked summer flicks out there! And what better way to start than with one of the wildest sequels of all time?

    Henrique & David head to the Bahamas to take on JAWS: The Revenge (1987)—the fourth and final entry in the legendary shark saga. When Ellen Brody’s son is killed by a shark in Amity, she escapes to the islands… only to find the shark has followed her, bent on vengeance!

    Directed by Joseph Sargent and starring Lorraine Gary, Lance Guest, and Mario Van Peebles, this film may have ended the franchise, but its sheer absurdity lives on.

    🎧 In this episode:
    • Is this the most entertainingly bad sequel in the franchise?
    • Why was the voodoo subplot cut—but still weirdly present?
    • Does Sean Brody’s death still hit hard decades later?
    • The insane ending—why it demands a frame-by-frame rewatch
    • How the novelization takes things even further off the deep end

    🌴 PLUS:
    • Where do the other JAWS films rank for our hosts?
    • Hidden gems in the killer shark and animal attack genre
    • Henrique’s week-long binge of 90s erotic thrillers
    • A sleazy, underseen summertime thriller lined up for next week!
