Rosemary's Baby [1968] (SSS 73)

Turns out the SSS Compound has some new neighbors.  They like to share cocktails, tell stories, and... gather up in a circle to chant?

Seemed like a good reason to take a look at the beloved Rosemary's Baby from 1968.  Neither Derek or Jeff has seen the movie prior to the watch for this episode.  We know they will say they saw a classic (impossible to argue otherwise, really) but will they say they Saw Something Scary?

Hit that download button, press play, and let's find out on this episode!

The Cloverfield Paradox (SSS 72)

Here we go - wrapping up our look at the [current] Cloverfield franchise, 2018's The Cloverfield Paradox.

Yeah, you probably hated it.  Seems like everyone did.  In fact, the movie's badness may have powers heretofore unknown (specifically, the power to take away health).  But is there anything redeemable here?  Perhaps... maybe... possibly?

If not, what are you waiting for?  Drop by and say hello!

Finally - Derik and Jeff give Hereditary the Saw Something Scary treatment.

This movie has been hailed as "this generation's Exorcist" but also a "film [that] is oversold for what it is, and also for how good it promises to be."

Where does the truth lie?  Find out on this episode of Saw Something Scary!

The Boy [2016] (SSS 64a)

In 2016 horror fans found out about The Boy and immediately realized Lauren Cohen was the lead.

"Awesome - I love Lauren Cohen!  "Who doesn't love Lauren Cohen?"  What did they find after they pressed play?

This week the guys from Saw Something Scary enter into the claustrophobic, exhausting, and terrifying (? - TBD) world of 2014's The Babadook.

Along the way they discuss the trailer for the remake of Suspiria, news about Warner Brothers developing a film disaster, and find a director of superb skill.

Revisiting The Visit [Shamalayan's 2015 film] with Special Guest Christie Wright

Derik Zoo is in N'awlins with a bad case of Mania so Jeff called in Christie Wright, an avowed Horror agnostic with a sharp mind for stories, for a very special episode.

Since this special episode it calls for special treatment so our regular Jeff Hates Trailers got switched up and so did The Horror Reporter.  Nonetheless, in this episode Jeff and Christie review upcoming horror movie trailers, rank M. Night Shyamalan's post-Sixth Sense filmography, and take a trip into the world of The Visit!

Hit download, press play, and let's jump in this Saw Something Scary special episode!

Scream 4 (2011) (SSS 57)

So hit that download button, press play, and let's get going on the latest from Saw Something Scary!

Scream 3 (2000) (SSS 56)

The Triple S Pod is back, baby!

Sure, sickness can knock us off our horses but guess what? We're back in the saddle and #ScreamMonth rolls on!

This week we're looking at 2000's Scream 3, the clone-of-a-clone... erm... "quality" film that made the Scream franchise [briefly] a trilogy.  There's a lot to criticize in this one, very little to praise, and one very interesting point you won't want to miss (near the 37:44) mark).

So hit that download button, press play, and let's find out if there's anything scary about Scream 3 (beyond the production itself).

Scream 2 (1997) (SSS 55)

#ScreamMonth rolls on (even if slightly delayed) here on Saw Something Scary!  This time we're picking up with the sequel - full not only of the same kind of self-aware commentary that made the first such a surprise hit but even some additional wink-and-nod commentary.

Does it work as a film?  Does it work as a time capsule?  Does it work as a scary movie?

Hit that download button, press play, and find out in the latest episode of Saw Something Scary!

Scream (1996) (SSS 54)

March 2018 is Scream Month on the Saw Something Scary Podcast!

That's right - we're going back to the quintessential 90's horror slasher movie, the mother to A New Nightmare's father of meta-horror, 1996's Scream.

On the way we'll talk about the [insert adjective] shenanigans with The Shape of Water and Get Out at the 2018 Academy Awards after a little Jeff Hates Trailers.

Hit that download button, press play, and let's go see Sidney, Gale, and Deputy Dewey!

The Ritual (SSS 53)

It isn't even March and yet 2018 already has its surprise horror-hit, Norse-wilderness dreadfest The Ritual.

This film is garnering lots of praise for putting a fresh coat of paint on several well-know horror tropes but without feeling regurgitated.  But you want to know if it is scary.

So hit download, press play, and head out into the woods of The Ritual with the guys from Saw Something Scary and find out!

Oculus [2013] (SSS 52)

Ok, so we were totally wrong on Episode 47 that we had covered all of Mike Flanagan's films.  So... um... this episode fixes that error!  Oculus kinda put Flanagan on the map so I guess it's fitting that Saw Something Scary finishes up his filmography (for now) with this particular film.

So hit that download button, press play, and let's step through the mirror into the world of Oculus on this episode of The Triple S podcast!

Website listeners can stream this episode on TuneIn here!

The Shape of Water (Still Trying Out the New Format!) (SSS 51)

Either Get Out or The Shape of Water stands the best chance of landing the thriller horror genre a Best Picture Oscar win.

That means that even though the The Shape of Water isn't necessarily horrifying (stay tuned to find out!) it is Oscar bait.

So what we have in this film is a non-horrifying Horror movie working as Oscar bait that uses Sally Hawkins as fish bait.

Here's where you can find that killer content you've come to expect from Saw Something Scary:

Review - 1:40

Jeff Hates Trailers - 43:00

Tragedy Girls (And Trying Out a New Format!) (SSS 50)

This week the guys from Saw Something Scary connect with the Tragedy Girls, an (already?) cult hit that has intrigued the online horror community since it first started making the rounds at film festivals in the Fall of 2017.

The film is available on multiple platforms now (Amazon, for instance) so it is high time for your guides to your next scare to give you the heads up on whether or not these girls can deliver a legit chill down your spine or not.

Also on this episode you'll hear the first of a few experiments with the format of the show.  You'll still get all the expected Triple S content but the order is switched up.  Like it?  Let us know!  Hate it?  Let us know!  Here's the new order:
