After some rambling about vaccines and home repair, we kick off Real World Horror with Elon Musk's business partner discussing the possibility of starting a real life Jurassic Park which makes us ask, has he seen any of the movies?
In Horror Business, we discuss a new movie that's we're not saying is about aliens, but... ALIENS. We also talk about Mike Flanagan's next project, updates on the Goodnight Mommy and Slumber Party Massacre remakes, and we're still trying to figure out what an NFT is thanks to Kevin Smith and his new horror film.
Oh, did someone say horror film? Okay, let's talk about horror films. First up we've got the new vampire flick starring icons Babs Crampton and Larry Fessenden, titled Jakob's Wife. We follow that up with the time loop home invasion mind bender known as Lucky.

In Horror Business, we discuss a new horror-comedy starring the Foo Fighters, a new haunted house film from the legendary Sam Raimi, and a new sequel series to The Guest. We also break down the new Resident Evil film and lament yet another spin-off (or two) of The Walking Dead.
We then head to the theater for our film reviews, where we talk about the new remake/reboot/re-imagining/re-whatever the fuck of 2003's Wrong Turn, as well as try to wrap our minds around the absurdity of Psycho Goreman.

Who do you think you are? We are! Welcome back to the Grave Plot for the big 1-7-5.
We kick off the episode with a bunch of nonsense about vaccines and other irrelevant rantings. Finally, we get to Real World Horror, where we talk about the latest chapter in the TRUE STORY of The Amityville Horror (cue eye roll). In Horror Business, we discuss Rob Zombie's rumored Munsters movie, a TV series based on Let the Right One In, and a Frankenstein-esque film featuring Willem Dafoe and Emma Stone. This, naturally, led into a discussion on Disney villains. We then give our opinions on a new Predator comic series and a miniseries based on R.L. Stine's Just Beyond series of graphic novels.
In our film reviews, we head off to the Emerald Isle for our annual St. Patrick's Day salute to Irish horror. First up we talk about the resurrection thriller Wake Wood, a 2009 movie about a pagan ritual gone wrong. Who would have thought? We then review the supernatural comedy Extra Ordinary, featuring Will Forte as a Satan-worshipping music star and the ghost hunting duo that serves as his foil.

Wednesday Feb 24, 2021
Weeeeee're baaaaack! After taking a break off for the 2021 Grave Plot Film Fest, we're back to our regularly scheduled program.
Today's episode gets a little off the rails at times, with asides featuring The Avengers, geography, and the best way to trim your pubes (use code GRAVEPLOT for 3% off the Bush Buster 5000). When we finally get down to business, Horror Business that is, we discuss lifeforms that "shouldn't be there" found in the Arctic in Real World Horror. We go on to discuss The Last of Us casting for the upcoming HBO series, a new Addams Family series coming to Netflix from Tim Burton, and how Neil Blomkamp spent his summer vacation. We also chew over a JJ Abrams project that's Subject to Change as well as the return of Brittany Snow to the horror genre.
For our film reviews, we have a conversation about two highly talked about movies. First up is the slow burning religious thriller known as Saint Maud, about a born-again Catholic looking to save the soul of a dying dancer. It's a brooding, serious film. Our other review goes to the opposite of the end of the spectrum, with the a caffeine-fueled Nicolas Cage fighting animatronic killer animals in Willy's Wonderland.
Find out our thoughts on these films and much more with a new episode of the one, the only, the incomparable Grave Plot Podcast!
