Cast Me To Hell: A Horror Movie Podcast

Episode 118 - The Relic (1997) - January Dumping Ground

This week we return to our yearly feature of January Dumping Ground where we search the local tip for the best and worth films released in the often maligned January film release.
January's can be a hard time for film's and often studios dump their content there when they have little faith in it. Often these dumped films are not well received or become flops at the box office. We are here to delve into them and see if they live up to the title or are they hidden gems in a pile of shit. 
So join us as we have a look at the creature feature The Relic (1997) starring Tom Sizemore (RIP). Will it reach the heights of other 90's creatures features like Jurassic Park, Species, Mimic or Ben Affleck's Phantoms or will in be deserving of the dumpster like Jurassic Park 2, Species 2, Mimic 2 and Ben Affleck's Phantoms (Okay we haven't seen that one, is it awful?).

Episode 110 - Five Nights at Freddy’s (2023) - Review

This week we return straight from the cinema to review the video game phenomenon that old people in their 30's plus don't really understand, Five Nights At Freddy's. (First 20 minutes are spoiler free.)
We come equipped with our limited knowledge of the games, lore or what half the easter eggs mean to review this teen horror that doesn't feel like it was made only for teens. 
We look at the film through the horror movie lens to see if it breaks the video game movie curse and does it work as a good horror on it's own merits. The main question upon all our lips is not do the Youtuber's love this but is it better than Willy's Wonderland. 
So grab your flashlights, settle down behind your security screens and join the CMTH boys as we see which animatronic puppets coming boogieing at us.
