Pull the Curtain: Raw - 44:56

Searching (SSS 78)

It took a while but the guys from The Triple S Podcast finally saw Searching and liked what they found.  John Cho is the man, the movie is pretty good, and the guys figured out the right name for the subgenre the film belongs to.

The Predator [+ Special Guest & October Scare-A-Thon] (SSS 77)

Saw Something Scary takes a look this week at Shane Black's reboot of the Predator franchise.  On the way there Derik and Jeff picked up a fellow traveler, friend of the podcast Jody Webster, who has put the final touches on his Scare-A-Thon for Halloween 2018.

This ad-hoc group of Loonies handles this week's Horror Reporter and the review of The Predator.  They saw Predator space-dogs.  They saw bodies go splat.  But did they see something scary?

The Frighteners [1996] (SSS 75)

This week Saw Something Scary jumps into the time machine and goes to see Peter Jackson's 1996, genre-confounding, The Frighteners.  This movie broke Derik and what results is a free flowing conversation about... well... lots of stuff, including the movie in question.

The guys from the Triple S Pod got to see some classic Robert Zemeckis goodness.  They saw some classic Michael J. Fox.  They saw a whos-who of that-guy actors.

But did they see something scary?
