The Burning!

Sleepaway Camp!

Greetings campers! In life, there are movies that scare you, movies that move you—and then there are movies that leave you staring at the screen thinking, *what did I just watch?* Today’s episode is dedicated to one of the most gloriously bizarre entries in the world of campy cinema: *Sleepaway Camp*. Released in the golden age of ‘80s horror, this film has everything you’d expect—summer camp antics, awkward teens, questionable adult supervision—and then it veers wildly into territory you could never predict. It’s equal parts slasher, soap opera, and fever dream, stitched together with a tone that somehow feels both dead-serious and completely unhinged. So whether you’re a longtime fan who knows every twist and turn, or you’re about to experience this cult classic for the first time, get ready. We’re heading to camp… and things are about to get very, very weird.

Chopping Mall!

Greetings campers! Welcome back to the podcast where neon dreams, questionable decisions, and gloriously over-the-top cinema collide. Today, we’re rolling down the escalator straight into one of the most delightfully absurd corners of ‘80s horror: a mall, some killer robots, and a group of teens who definitely should’ve just gone home when they had the chance. That’s right—we’re talking about Chopping Mall. A movie that asks the important question: what if late-night retail therapy turned into a laser-blasting nightmare? It’s campy, it’s chaotic, and it somehow turns security robots into some of the most enthusiastic killers in B-movie history. So grab your snacks, avoid the furniture store after hours, and join us as we break down the synth-soaked madness, the accidental comedy, and why Chopping Mall remains a cult classic that’s impossible not to love.

The Burning!

Greetings campers! Before summer camp horror became a full-blown genre, there was one film that leaned all the way into the chaos, the gore, and just the right amount of absurdity. Today, we’re talking about The Burning—a cult classic that helped define the “campy horror” vibe before it was even a label. Released in the early ’80s and featuring early appearances from actors like Jason Alexander and Holly Hunter, this film gives us everything you’d expect: a revenge-driven killer, a group of unsuspecting camp counselors, and some seriously over-the-top practical effects. At the center of it all is Cropsey—a disfigured caretaker turned urban legend—who brings a whole new level of menace to the woods. In this episode, we’re diving into what makes The Burning so iconic: the blend of genuine tension and borderline ridiculousness, the infamous raft scene, and the way it sits somewhere between genuinely disturbing and strangely fun. So grab your flashlight, maybe don’t wander too far from the group… and let’s get into it.
