The Bad Dad Horror Podcast

If you like Scream, then you've come to the right place. Our intrepid hosts mark the start of Summer by digging into the Scream franchise. After a marathon of watching films, we were both ready to tackle Scream VI and we were not disappointed. Tell us are you Team Core Four or Team OG? Predictably we are split along the age lines. Will we ever see Sidney Bristow again? We don't know, but we do love to speculate.

It's been a hot minute since your fearless podcast hosts stepped behind the mic - and it shows! Enjoy our conversation about the classic horror film Child's Play and the modern take on dolls gone wild, M3GAN. Come for the hot takes on M3GAN's dancing skills and stay for the brain cramp where I travel 20 years in the past and argue breathlessly that it's 2003. What can I say, anything can happen on the BAD DAD HORROR PODCAST.

First and foremost, apologies to the late Corey Haim. While recording this podcast, I completely blanked on his name and instead of going back and fixing it in post, I'm a bigger believer in an organic podcast. As for this latest episode Sierra finally gets to weigh in on the biggest slasher battle known to humankind. Who does she think will win in a battle? Will she even know who Kevin Bacon or Johnny Depp is? Answers to these and so many more questions can be found in our ninth podcast.

You know what they say about best-laid plans and all that, well, this was supposed to be our special episode to drop on Halloween, but as fate would have it, that didn't come to fruition. So, instead of chucking the episode completely or shelving it for an entire year, we figured that we would share with you what might have been. So, sit back and imagine that it's Halloween and it will all make sense. Or will it?

It's been a minute, but our intrepid hosts are back. This time, we are exploring the idea of whether places can hold significance in hauntings. With The Amityville Horror and Poltergeist, we look at more modern concepts of horror including the idea that certain places are more in tune with the other side than others. Remember, don't go into the light!

Today was supposed to be another special Halloween episode where I introduce Sierra to a couple of my favorite Halloween anthology films, but best-laid plans and all that. Sierra was a bit under the weather this weekend and her voice wasn't up to recording, but we will record it this coming week and figure out a spot to insert it. In its place, enjoy our first (but definitely not last) foray into the horror worlds of Stephen King with Carrie and The Shining.

In this special bonus episode, our intrepid horror aficionados step out from our historical horror review to watch the most recent trilogy of Halloween films directed by David Gordon Green. Starting with Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills on Blu-ray, our daring duo enjoys their first horror film on the big screen with the recent release, Halloween Ends. Does the Halloween franchise really die? Will Michael Myers finally get a stylish makeover? Does a dark theater make a film scarier? All this and more in our special Halloween bonus episode.

We move boldly into the slasher genre with two dudes who like to hide behind masks. No, not THAT guy, yet, but soon. We kick off a special Halloween week of episodes with a discussion on the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Halloween (1978).

I think I certainly put the "Bad Dad" in the Bad Dad Horror Podcast with this one. We discuss some rather uncomfortable scenes from Rosemary's Baby and The Exorcist that I somehow forgot were in each movie. Oh well, live and learn.

It's only fitting that we dive into George Romero and a couple of his zombie films for our second episode. We discuss the original Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead while Sierra laments all of the old movies. Will she finally be scared? Find out now!
