Show notes

This week on Bloody Good Horror we debate Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil (2026)... what works, what doesn’t, and whether the movie really understands what makes the games special.

We discuss Austin Abram's leading man performance, the incredible creature design, survival horror tropes, abundant humor, and debate that controversial ending. Does it actually ruin all the good that comes before it?

PLUS, Eric tests Jon's Resident Evil knowledge and, spoiler alert, it doesn't go well! The new Crypt Keeper is CHOPPED, the Hellraiser game looks incredible, and we discuss our favorite horror videogames from childhood.

Buddy (2026) — The Creepy Horror of Happy Children’s TV Sep 11, 2026

Show notes

What if your favorite childhood TV show was actually a nightmare?

This week, Bloody Good Horror reviews "Buddy", the bizarre new horror movie from "Too Many Cooks" creator Casper Kelly. What begins as a seemingly innocent children’s program quickly becomes a surreal nightmare involving an orange unicorn, trapped children, looping episodes, and a world where happiness is mandatory.

But "Buddy" is much more than just a creepy kids’ show. We dig into the film’s use of liminal horror, childhood nostalgia, emotional manipulation, abuse and compliance, and the unsettling idea of what happens when the cheerful veneer of children’s entertainment starts to crack.

We also discuss Keegan-Michael Key’s wildly unsettling performance, the film’s bizarre supporting characters, its increasingly disturbing mythology, and an ending that suddenly blows the entire world of *Buddy* wide open.

Is "Buddy" a brilliant expansion of Casper Kelly’s "Too Many Cooks" aesthetic, or does its surreal second half start to lose the thread?

PLUS, Dr. Loomis gets horny in the new Halloween game and no one's happy about it, and Zach Cregger finds out what it's like to direct a film in a long running series... in the worst way possible.

Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma: A Horror Movie About Liberation Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

We are wildly In love with Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma... and completely divided. Director Jane Schoenbrun's follow-up to "I Saw the TV Glow" is a dense, sexy, gorgeous, titillating quantum leap of a film that asks the question; where is the line between being scared and being turned on? We discuss sexual awakenings, queer trauma and liberation, the true meaning and importance of fandom, and the film's oddly satisfying use of "Long December" by the Counting Crows. Plus, the artistry of the "snow master", ties to "Backrooms", and the real life Hollywood parallels.
