The Devil Made Me View It: Episode Zero - A New Beginning

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 03:55:36 GMT

After the dust settled, we relaunched our show with an EPISODE ZERO. Here we show our cards and reintroduce our selves, quickly mourn the lost show, and dive into a fresh start.

Always pushing for the bright side, this relaunch gave us autonomy and the ability to cuss as much as we possibly can. Our mamas are so proud.

THANKS!

TDMMVI BONUS Interview with DIRTY JERSEY director DAVID KEANE

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 21:29:03 GMT

We're joined this week for a special bonus episode by indie horror director David Keane to talk about the state of horror, his film DIRTY JERSEY (currently on YouTube and so to be on Tubi), and what we can look forward from him in the future.

Enjoy!

TDMMVI - THE SHINING

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 04:18:40 GMT

In our EPISODE ZERO premier, we mention several times our actual first episode and cite is as example of how the show will go. In face we mention it so many times we thought we might as well include it as BONUS EPISODE. In it, we discuss not only Kubrick's THE SHINING, but also the Stephen King penned/ Mick Garris directed TV mini-series as well as Mike Flanagan's masterful follow up DOCTOR SLEEP. In these early episodes, the pod's concept was that one host would bring the other a film that they loved dearly to discuss. We get a little loose with that format, but our show's devotion to celebrate horror is really best shown with our talk of all thing SHINING.

All this for the low low price of nothing.

THANKS

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 06:01:00 GMT

We get reacquainted with our old friend Sam Raimi with his latest picture SEND HELP. One of us had to mull over his thoughts on the new surprisingly bloody Rachel McAdams thriller, and the other still can't get the name right. Find out who is more embarrassed in the end.

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 05:01:00 GMT

For some films, we know we're in over our head so we had to bring in reinforcements to help us Tackle Robert Eggers new classic NOSFERATU.
