    BONUS: Straitjacket Talk- House (1977)
    Feb 18 2026

    Three hosts. One haunted house. Zero answers.

    This episode of Straitjacket Talk dives headfirst into House (1977)—the psychedelic, bananas Japanese horror cult classic that makes Jaws, Evil Dead, and Scooby-Doo feel like they got tossed in a blender. 🏠🐱🍉


    We argue, we laugh, we question reality, and we definitely do not solve the mystery of the killer piano, the haunted cat, or the watermelon guy. Expect chaotic horror analysis, unhinged jokes, cult movie trivia, and wildly different ratings for one of the strangest horror films ever made.


    If you love cult horror movies, surreal cinema, Japanese horror, Criterion Collection chaos, or watching friends slowly lose their minds on a podcast—this one’s for you.

  • Heart Eyes (2025)

    Heart Eyes (2025)
    Feb 11 2026

    In this episode of Mouths of Madness, we review Heart Eyes (2025), a Valentine’s Day slasher horror movie that blends rom-com tropes with brutal kills. Our Heart Eyes (2025) horror movie review breaks down the kills, killer reveal, themes, and whether this modern slasher delivers real scares or more romance than terror.


    Is Heart Eyes a clever, self-aware horror comedy…

    or a slasher with more kisses than kills?!


    Cupid is armed.

    The IT guy is suspicious.

    Valentine’s Day is cancelled.


    Grab your metal straw. Stay single.

    Welcome to the madness..


    Episode 54

  • BONUS: Straitjacket Talk- Valentine (2001)

    BONUS: Straitjacket Talk- Valentine (2001)
    Feb 4 2026

    We’re reviewing Valentine (2001), the early-2000s slasher horror film, and celebrating it with chaotic debates, spicy hot-tub opinions, killer Cupid masks, maggot chocolates, nu-metal vibes, and one man absolutely refusing to call this movie good.


    Is Valentine (2001) an underrated holiday horror banger… or a bland slasher with wax-on-the-dick energy? Expect laughs, nostalgia, brutal honesty, and way too much discussion about Denise Richards, drill kills, and whether the Cupid Killer deserves icon status.

  • The Fly (1986)

    The Fly (1986)
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode of Mouths of Madness, we review The Fly (1986), David Cronenberg’s tragic body horror classic starring Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis. We break down the film’s themes of transformation, love, decay, and identity, along with its Oscar-winning practical effects and why The Fly still hits harder with age.


    Welcome back to the Dungeon of Doom — where the walls are wired, the lab is suspicious, and the telepods look a little too… ergonomic. 😳 Trapped inside a teleportation experiment, the Mouths of Madness somehow still manage to record a long-form horror movie review of The Fly (1986) and descend into full Brundlefly chaos.


    Expect:

    🧪 Mad scientist energy

    🪰 Brundlefly body horror

    🤢 Practical effects that still make people look away

    😂 Unhinged jokes (cheeseburger = magic word)

    🧠 Existential dread (Ship of Theseus, anyone?)

    😱 “Be afraid. Be very afraid.” (we said it so you didn’t have to)


    We dive into the gross-out moments, the tragic romance, the science-gone-wrong nightmare, and the generational chaos of 80s kids vs a 2000s kid debating pacing, vibes, and how much Jeff Goldblum exposition should be legally allowed.


    If you love horror movie podcasts, long-form horror movie reviews, Cronenberg body horror, practical effects, and horror comedy, you’re in the right lab.

  • BONUS: Straitjacket Talk -Poltergeist (1982)

    BONUS: Straitjacket Talk -Poltergeist (1982)
    Jan 21 2026

    This is a bonus episode of Mouths of Madness featuring our companion series, Straitjacket Talk.


    We’re diving into Poltergeist (1982): the haunted-house classic that said, “What if your TV had better reception… from the afterlife?”


    We break down the Spielberg vs. Tobe Hooper debate (who really directed this thing?), revisit the most iconic moments (“They’re here…”, the clown scene, the tree attack, the face-melting mirror panic, and that chaotic “the house is clean” LIAR ending), and rank the movie like true horror gremlins. Is it terrifying? Is it cheesy? Is it secretly a theme-park ride disguised as a horror film? Yes. Yes. Yes.


    Also: we may or may not uncover the real villain of Poltergeist… and it might be Tweety the Canary. 🐤💀 (Don’t ask. Just witness the madness.)


    If you love horror movie reviews with jokes, practical effects talk, cursed-movie lore, and chaotic podcast energy, you’re in the right place. Drop your rating, your favorite scene, and whether you think you’d survive ONE (1) night in that neighborhood.


    🎬 In this episode:


    Poltergeist (1982) review + reaction + first-time watch thoughts


    Spielberg/Hooper director controversy discussion


    Best scenes + funniest moments (Tangina supremacy)


    Special effects: “aged badly” vs “still rules” debate


    Horror franchise influence: Conjuring / Insidious / Ghostbusters vibes


    Letterboxd rating + “Quote or Kill” picks


    The ending that goes OFF THE RAILS

  • Alien (1979)

    Alien (1979)
    Jan 14 2026

    What happens when a horror podcast crew wakes up too early from cryo-sleep, loses a crew member, unionizes against space labor violations, and accidentally reviews Alien (1979) from the middle of deep space? Chaos. Pure chaos..


    In this episode, we crash-land on Planet X to break down Ridley Scott’s Alien—from chest-bursters and corporate greed to flamethrowers, killer androids, and the ultimate final girl, Ellen Ripley.


    Expect dark humor, absurd space banter, generational debates, and one very suspicious cat as we ask the real questions:

    👉 Is the Xenomorph a perfect organism or an OSHA nightmare?

    👉 Is the Alien Queen technically a Disney Princess?

    👉 And why should you never trust a company android named Ash?


    Grab your flamethrower, pet your cat, and dive into the madness!


    Your Hosts- Kevin, Dan, Bearclaw, and Logan.

    Produced by Nathan.

  • BONUS: Straitjacket Talk — Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

    BONUS: Straitjacket Talk — Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
    Dec 31 2025

    This is a bonus episode of Mouths of Madness featuring our companion series, Straitjacket Talk.


    In this episode, we dive deep into Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut (1999)—a haunting psychological thriller starring Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman at the height of their fame. We unpack the film’s eerie dream logic, secret society imagery, marriage, jealousy, sexual fantasy, and Kubrick’s signature tension-filled direction, while debating fan theories, censorship controversies, and that infamous masquerade scene. From its hypnotic cinematography and unsettling score to its bleak commentary on desire, power, and infidelity, this is a spoiler-filled horror-adjacent discussion you won’t want to miss!
