S2E11 - Scream, Queen! My Nightmare On Elm Street
Episode Notes In this episode of Last Year's Horror, we're talking about the 2020 documentary, Scream, Queen! My Nightmare On Elm Street. It was directed by Roman Chimienti and Tyler Jensen, with voiceover work written by Michael Beard, Clint Catalyst, and Leo Herrera. The film follows actor Mark Patton’s journey from his time as a young, closeted gay man in a repressive hometown to his rise as a leading actor in Hollywood and his subsequent disappearance after the release of the controversial and wonderfully gay (and possibly homophobic?) sequel to A Nightmare On Elm Street, A Nightmare On Elm Street Part 2: Freddy’s Revenge. Joining us this episode is our good friend Gracie Jarvis of Good Mourning, Nancy, one of the best horror podcasts out there! So pour a glass of wine, slip into your fanciest knife-fingered glove, and get ready to scream…queen!   Follow us on social media: TWITTER: www.twitter.com/lastyearshorror   INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/lastyearshorror   FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/lastyearshorror Follow your intrepid hosts: BENJAMIN'S TWITTER: www.twitter.com/BanjaminAllocco   CAREY'S TWITTER: www.twitter.com/andcareyon   CAREY'S INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/andcareyon Find Gracie’s Podcast, Good Mourning, Nancy, on any podcast platform!

S2E9 - Freaky

Freaky was written by Michael Kennedy and Christopher Landon and directed by Christopher Landon. It stars the aforementioned Vince Vaughn as well as Kathryn Newton.

S2E8 - What do QAnon and Labyrinth Have In Common?

S2E8 - What do QAnon and Labyrinth Have In Common?
Episode Notes In this episode of Last Year's Horror, Ben is joined by former 9/11 truther turned conspiracy theory debunker Stephanie Kemmerer to ask the burning question on everyone’s mind: is 1986’s Jim Henson directed dark fantasy classic Labyrinth part of a vast conspiracy to confirm the truth behind QAnon’s wildest accusations of child-eating and satanism carried out by the US’s Deep State elite? Hint: no, it isn’t. But it’s a lot of fun comparing what the infamously wacky conspiracy theorist cult that attempted to overthrow the US government has in common with a movie starring puppets and featuring a farting bog. Oddly, there’s more in common between these two than you might think!   Follow us on social media: TWITTER: www.twitter.com/lastyearshorror INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/lastyearshorror   FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/lastyearshorror Follow your intrepid hosts: BENJAMIN'S TWITTER: www.twitter.com/BanjaminAllocco   CAREY'S TWITTER: www.twitter.com/andcareyon   CAREY'S INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/andcareyon Follow Stephanie Kemmerer on Twitter:   https://twitter.com/mcpasteface   For more on QAnon, check out Stephanie’s Skeptical Inquirer presentation here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUAKjmAZAuA   If you enjoy Last Year's Horror, check out all the interesting, entertaining, and elbow deep shows on the Ordis Studios Podcast Network by visiting the website or following the network on social media.   ORDIS STUDIOS WEBSITE: www.ordisstudios.com   ORDIS STUDIOS TWITTER: www.twitter.com/ordisstudios   ORDIS STUDIOS INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/ordis.studios   Intro song written by Benjamin Allocco and Marty Allocco, and performed by Marty Allocco.   Last Year's Horror is created by Benjamin Allocco and Carey Feagan and produced by Benjamin Allocco.

The Lodge was directed by Severin Fiala and Veronika Franz and stars none other than Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough, alongside brilliant child actors Jaeden Martell and Lia McHugh.

S2E5 - The Hunt
Episode Notes In this episode of Last Year's Horror, we're joined by our friend TJ Stokes to discuss the controversial political satire / horror / action thriller THE HUNT, which created an uproar just with a few key words ripped from the social media lexicon. What a bunch of deplorable snowflakes, right? Get cucked! That’s a thing, right? The Hunt was written by Nick Cuse and Damon Lindelof and directed by Craig Zobel. Come for the satire, stay for Betty Gilpin’s badass, drawling, mumbling, crazy-eyed performance! This movie CUCKS!!!

S2E1 - Underwater
Episode Notes In this Episode of Last Year's Horror, we're talking about the possibly maybe Lovecraftian (?) aquatic horror creature future, Underwater.
