Episode 250 - An American Werewolf in London/Idle Hands

Today on a very special episode of The Grave Plot Podcast... it's episode 250!
To mark this monumental milestone, we're throwing it back to some of the "movies that made us." We're talking about some of the horror movies that really got our gears moving and introduced us to this wonderful genre we've come to know, love, and celebrate for the past 11+ years, namely An American Werewolf in London and Idle Hands!
Hold on, dude, hold on. We know you're excited but first we have to take care of some business. Horror Business! In Real World Horror, we discuss a Zimbabwean professor who is plagued by supernatural fires. Or has herpes. Either way, f*cked up, right? We also head to the east coast for Blobfest, discuss a duo of trilogies, and try to Bring Her Back so she can Talk 2 Me. We also look at yet another Stephen King adaptation from Mike Flanagan and a former Police Academy standout now on the wrong side of the law.
So strap in tight and join us for a big, giant episode 250!

It's that time of year again, when we dawn our greenest greens, drink our darkest beers, and follow the rainbow to the Grave Plot of gold! Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with us as we discuss two horror films straight from the Emerald Isle of Ireland!
First up, we discuss a Real World Horror story about a Philadelphia area town's mysterious "Box Demon." In Horror Business, we talk about Nicolas Cage's war on surfers, a potential sequel to a cult classic, and the latest creepypasta to hit the big screen.
