Jaci & Luke return once again to the bountiful fields of Stephen King's oeuvre, this time taking a short trip up to the Overlook Hotel. That's right, things are going to be drenched in blood, pretty creepy and some might even say... a bit splintered. Topics include: timey-wimey shenanigans, the accuracy of effects makeup, how much money you'd have to make to do this gig, and is Ewan McGregor psychic?

Jaci & Luke have something extra special in the works, so for now, enjoy this re-release of the Hanksy era episode on Carrie! Catch Horror Hut next time for a super spooky episode -- we promise it'll be a good time!

Original Description:

Welcome back to Hanksy Panksy Horror Hut, where we watch movies referenced in Scream until Sam returns from parental leave! This week we're covering 1976's horror classic Carrie, dipping our toes for the first time into the Stephen King universe. Ride along as we discuss: prom night shenanigans, paint bucket injuries, gratuitous nudity, car explosions and more genre fiction definitions.

Jaci & Luke take an initial dive into the world of Vincent Price B-movies, this time looking at 1959's House on Haunted Hill. The ghosts and ghouls are out in force in this week's episode, with topics including: creative but questionable murder plots, Benoit Blanc, how not to get into horror, vibrating movie seats and developing your own Ripley mindset.

Things are getting extra spicy (and surprisingly deep) in this week's episode on 1992's Basic Instinct. Jaci & Luke take a refreshingly honest look at this classic flick, both as a horror movie referenced directly in Scream and as a standalone movie. Topics include: when romance becomes horror, what makes a good noir film, how to get away with murder, Big Sur etc., and why Gus is the best sidekick ever.

Flip a phone and go over your minutes for this month, because Jaci & Luke are heading back to 2006 for When a Stranger Calls! That's right, low-ride jeans and swooped hair cover every inch of this spooky blast from the past. So jump on into the time capsule that is this flick, with topics including: the effectiveness of a good score, a little forensics chatter, certain phobias, how to build a good slasher villain, and a stacked cast.

Jaci & Luke are headed back to the 1950s with this week's look at the absolutely classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Grab a truck full of pods and try not to fall asleep, because this time they're talkin': the ubiquity of pod people, universal metaphors, perspectives on old media, what makes sameness creepy and the ambiguity of alien reproductive cycles.

Jaci & Luke are doing something a little different for the Holidays. Notably, they're watching 1920's Der Golem, a German expressionist look at Jewish folklore. So grab some clay and summon a demon(?), with topics this week including: the finer points of not being able to talk in film, how horror impacts audiences through time, Shakespeare, some pretty good effects work, and the vagaries of pre-war life in Berlin.

Jaci & Luke get to peepin' this time with Hitchcock's classic Rear Window, starring Grace Kelly and James Stewart. They're talking everything suspense and thrillers, with a particular focus on: John Mulaney as a nurse, the birds and the trees, bottle episodes and how many nuggets of horror do you need to really make a horror film, anyway?
