12: Tipsy Takes - Death of a Unicorn (2025)

🦄 We’re Back and Slightly Buzzed! 🩸 After a two-week break, Blood & Ink returns with a slightly off-the-rails (but totally hilarious) episode! J.C. Nollen is joined by Ashleigh and returning guest Sally for a wine-fueled recap of the bizarre A24 creature flick Death of a Unicorn. There’s no Fright Bite this week. Just laughter, chaos, and questionable commentary as we try to make sense of unicorn roadkill and why this movie is somehow both horrifying and wholesome? This one’s silly, weird, and a whole lot of fun. If you want to feel like you’re hanging out with tipsy horror fans on a Friday night, hit play. 🎙️ Cheers to being back Next Movie --> Talk to Me (2022) @bloodinkpodcast bloodinkpodcast@gmail.com

11: New Beginnings & Bite-Sized Justice (Teeth, 2007)

This week’s Blood & Ink kicks off with a brand new Fright Bite: New Beginnings, a tightly paced descent into biotech body horror, written by host J.C. Nollen. Told in found-journal format, we follow student Dennis Grimes through a clinical research experiment like no other.  Then we shift gears and bare our… teeth. That’s right, we’re recapping the 2007 cult horror film Teeth, joined by Ashleigh and returning guest Bee Lysko! It’s a wild ride packed with laughs, jaw-dropping moments, and some surprisingly deep discussion. Come for the fear, stay for the fun. It’s fiction, film, and friendship — all soaked in Blood & Ink. This one’s got bite.

Episode 10: Tied to Death & "The Orphanage"

In this episode of Blood & Ink, we start with a chilling new Fright Bite: a story about a dying soul who cheats death through a strange and haunting ritual. But the deal has an expiration date. After the story, Ashleigh joins me to discuss The Orphanage (2007), a deeply atmospheric Spanish horror film that blends ghostly tension with heartbreaking emotion. We break down the scares, themes, and that unforgettable ending.

Episode 9: Halos, Killer Rides & Deborah Logan

In this solo episode of Blood & Ink, I ease into some recent horror news—just a few things creeping around the genre worth mentioning. Then, I dive into a chilling Reddit story about a cab driver who unknowingly picks up a passenger with a deadly gift—the ability to see halos that reveal a person's true nature... and judge them accordingly. To wrap things up, I revisit the 2014 found footage gem "The Taking of Deborah Logan", breaking down its scares, themes, and some seriously unsettling moments. Grab your headphones, get comfy, and let’s hang out with some horror.

Episode 8: Meat, Monsters & Mom and Dad

This week, I kick things off with a "fright bite" about guilt-free meat—a miracle product that promises cruelty-free carnivory but delivers a society-ruining addiction instead. Then, I’m joined by two very special (and also slightly under-the-weather) guests—my own parents! Together, through coughs and commentary, we recap the 2017 horror film "The Ritual". It’s a family affair full of ancient forest gods, emotional trauma, and just a little bit of chaos.
