Nathan Baesel Loves Horrorr

In this episode, I'm thrilled to welcome Nathan Baesel, the man who brought the unforgettable Leslie Vernon to life in "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon!" We dive into the film's brilliant blend of horror and dark comedy, the creative risks that made it stand out, and the amazing people he worked with on the film. Nathan tells me how he crafted a character that's equal parts charismatic and completely unhinged. He shares what it was like stepping into the mindset of a slasher-in-training, along with behind-the-scenes stories that make you appreciate just how cleverly this film was put together. Nathan also reflects on the movie's cult following, why it continues to resonate with horror fans, and how Leslie Vernon carved out his own space among the genre's most iconic killers. We also get some insight into the Kickstarter, it's benefits and more for "Behind the Mask 2: The Return of Leslie Vernon". We also get sidetracked in the most entertaining way when we talk about how Johnny Depp somehow missed his calling as the king of luxury mattresses, our deep appreciation for practical effects that actually feel real, and Nathan's full-circle moment of growing up on "A Nightmare on Elm Street" before eventually working alongside Robert Englund. It's chaotic, hilarious, and exactly the kind of detour you hope for.

Rod Blackhurst Loves Horror

In this episode, I'm beyond excited to welcome "Dolly" director and co-writer Rod Blackhurst! We dive deep into the film's haunting atmosphere, the creative decisions that shape its unsettling tone, and the process of building tension that lingers long after the credits roll. Rod pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to bring a project like "Dolly" to life, from the earliest sparks of an idea to the challenges of executing a story that thrives on mood, character, and unease. It's a conversation packed with insight, passion, and a genuine love for storytelling that horror fans are going to eat up. We also get distracted with what got us into horror as kids, my adventures working at four different video stores, and a surprisingly important question Rod asked me that no guest has ever asked in the entire history of the podcast. What starts as a deep dive into"Dolly" quickly turns into a full-on horror nerd-out session, filled with laughs, nostalgia, and the kind of chaotic, off-the-rails fun that makes these conversations so damn entertaining. Don't miss seeing "Dolly", now avilable on VOD now on Shudder!!

Naomi Mechem-Miller Loves Horror

In this episode, I am very excited to welcome special effects artist and one of the stars of "Evidence of the Boogeyman", Naomi Mechem-Miller! We talk about their amazing practical effects, their experience working in front of the camera on "Evidence of the Boogeyman", working behind the scenes on horror movies with their company Real Fiction Studios FX & of course their favorite horror movies. It doesn't take long before things get hilariously chaotic as we dive into solidarity butts while talking about Naomi's work on "Evidence of the Boogeyman", joke about doing cocaine, I spill my water which ends up completely derailing the show. We also debate whether we'd let Megan Fox eat us while talking about "Jennifer's Body", break down how smart the comedy is in "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil", and uncover the gross ways they saved money on "Poltergeist", and so many more hilarious moments along the way.

Zoran Gvojic Loves Horror

In this episode, I am very excited to welcome the man behind Lowcarb Comedy's "Social Mediasochist", occasional host/co-host of "Dead Meat" on YouTube, host of "Dead Meat Games", Dead Meat's "They Talk", amazingly talented video editor & all around gem of a human Zoran Gvojic! We talk about his amazing horror paraody videos, working with James A. Janisse & Chelsea Rebecca doing "Dead Meat" videos, & of course his favorite horror movies. We go completely off the rails talking about what the practical effects could've been in "Tremors", I confess a truly embarrassing first‑time watch from one of Zoran's movie picks, and Zoran lays out the brutal fate that Wayne Szalinski absolutely deserved for shrinking the kids in "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids". I accidentally say something "off the record" that is very much on the record, Zoran drops his go‑to karaoke song while we talk about "Little Shop of Horrors", and that's just scratching the surface. Tangents, hot takes, and nonstop laughs as this episode is packed with chaos in the best way possible.

Fabiànne Thérèse Loves Horror

In this episode, I am very excited to welcome horror actress & star of the new horror movie "Dolly", Fabiànne Thérèse. We talk about what got her into acting, her time filming "Dolly", her favorite moments on set, working with Seann William Scott, as well as Ethan Suplee, and of course her favorite horror movies. The conversation spirals in the best way possible. What starts as a simple chat quickly mutates into a hilarious deep dive into the absolute worst day jobs we've ever survived. Fabiànne casually reveals she was doing "tick checks" for Seann while filming "Dolly" (yes, really), then pivots into a full-blown, genuinely intense breakdown of her lifelong fear of Chucky… all while my own Chucky doll lurks right behind me like it's part of the interview. There's a rogue pizza knife scare, a wildly uncomfortable (but fascinating) discussion about how incels could twist a "Get Out" style scenario into something that could be horrifying, and a surprisingly beautiful defense of "Under the Skin" that might just change how you see it. Somewhere in the chaos, I also admit I made the questionable life choice of watching "It Follows" at the absolute worst possible time, and that's just scratching the surface of the madness. It's weird, it's funny, it's a little unhinged. and it's absolutely worth the ride.
