Nothing to Fear

Billie Schultz

Every week Billie, Alex and Luke sit down to watch and talk about a horror movie that they have traditionally been too afraid to see. As a bunch of horror movie newbies and budding fans we are trying to watch the scary things and show people that in the end they're just movies there's nothing to fear! read less

Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning
AND What a new beginning it is for us over here at Nothing to Fear. We bust back from summer hiatus like a Jason Voorhees who was buried in a far too shallow grave. And wouldn't you know it, we have a guest filling in for Luke on this episode. We are joined by none other than a Day One fan of Nothing to Fear and now real life friend, Danae! So there's hope for your parasocial relationships too! Danae joins us to talk all about this franchise and along the they come up with a new idea for a Jason Voorhees movie (Weekend at Jason's. It'll make a billion guaranteed), we reminisce about that kid in elementary school who only drew weapons and probably went into law enforcement, and weigh the merits of watching all the Friday the 13th movies in a row (do not do this). Everyone go find Danae on social media and bully them into starting a podcast of their own now that they've had a taste of the fame. @duhnae on instagram! You can also listen to Alex's curated daily song list over at @wansongaday on instagram. Once you've finished all of that you should definitely go listen to all of Super Scary Podcast including the episode that I recently guested on. We talked about 2019s The Hole in the Ground from A24. It'll Changeling your life! Look for The Super Scary Podcast wherever you get 'em! Thanks so much for downloading and listening to the show, if you could give us a boost we'd all really really love that. I know we've gone away for a bit and we need help spreading the NtF word. I still think it's really cool how my podcast outlasted NFTs. I hope all those monkey pictures bankrupted people. Billie. Go to bed. It's late. Bye for now everyone! See you again real soon! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nothingtofear/message
The Taking of Deborah Logan

The Taking of Deborah Logan
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! Luke picked the episode for the fear of snakes (ophidiophobia) and he chose The Taking of Deborah Logan specifically so no one could choose Anaconda.

Copycat
May 8 2023
Copycat
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! This week we take a surprising departure from being a horror movie podcast and transition into a regular movie podcast with this 2 hour selection from our boy Alex Wan. 1995 was a wild time, the internet was new, Holly Hunter had the bluntest bangs decades before Zooey Deschanel, and people were too afraid to explicitly come out and say that any of their characters were gay. All of this, and more!, combine into the film Copycat. As you can tell, Luke is really happy with the fact that we picked this film for our horror movie podcast. Hopefully he can right the ship when it's his pick next week. Enjoy the show!

Cujo
May 1 2023
Cujo
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing. We're looking at the top five strongest phobias this month for Nothing to Fear and picking movies based on that. First up is cynophobia which is the fear of dogs. Apart from The Sandlot or that movie where Liam Neeson gets attacked by wolves or whatever, there aren't many dog centric horror movies. Well. Except for Cujo. Stephen King is back at it again and we take a look at this adaptation from all the way back in 1983. Turns out the real bad guy was rabies all along.

30 Days of Night
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! Join us and mid 2000s heart throb, Josh Hartnett as we tackle a group of vampires that want to make a meal out of the Northern most town in Alaska. We watched 30 Days of Night and we talk all about it. From the graphic novel hay day of the first decade of the 21st century, to all the silliest continuity errors you could name. Put on a parka, make sure your UV lamp is ready to go and come along for 30 Days of Night. There's no movie news section this week or even a proper introduction because we just ran out of time to record and life got a bit in the way of this silly little pod.

The Lost Boys

The Lost Boys
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! We’re diving into one of the most 80s movies of all time with Joel Schumacher’s The Lost Boys from 1987. Forget Gen Z and their desire to bring back the early 2000s fashion (You really don’t want to experience jeans so long they covered your shoes and were immediately reduced to tatters), bring back the hair teasing and crop tops of the sugariest decade! Oh. And there’s vampires in here. It’s an allegory maybe. Grandpa is a weirdo.

Annihilation
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! We DID IT! Here is 150 episodes of three friends talking about horror movies. In lieu of talking about any horror movie news, join Billie as she tries to describe a meme in real time to her friends. All that PLUS a discussion about a movie that somehow was off of Billie’s radar for way too long. So get your friends together, forget about using any sort of protective gear and step inside the Shimmer to talk about Annihilation. This podcast episode has everything, talking about parallel universes, in depth discussions about the self-destructive tendencies of humans, and a fire drill! You don't want to miss it.

Tucker and Dale vs Evil
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! We spend some time with some misunderstood boys and their desire to own summer property. This week we checked out the Horror comedy masterpiece, Tucker & Dale vs Evil. Look. After a string of kind of bummer movies it was a delight to record this one and laugh about what a silly film this is.

The Green Inferno
Mar 13 2023
The Green Inferno
This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! Forest month continues. This time with 100% more plot lines around being in a forest. Or, in the case of this movie, A Jungle. We tackle controversial (read, made Billie mad and he kind of seems like a gross dude) Eli Roth’s spiritual sequel to Cannibal Holocaust this week. It’s The Green Inferno. A movie that somehow finds a way to be obnoxious an offensive all that the very same time and leave you disliking every single character onscreen. But I don’t want to give away my feelings too much at the top here.
