This Week in Horror History | The Hills Have Eyes 2, Stay Alive, Gonjiam & Def by Temptation (Mar 23–29)
This Week in Horror History (Mar 23–29) is your weekly horror release-date rundown—with where to watch (U.S.), a deep-cut spotlight, and a weekly recommendation built for nights when you want your horror mean, chaotic, and just a little contaminated.
This week we’ve got desert-mutant survival horror, a killer video game movie with pure mid-2000s cursed-object energy, a found-footage livestream nightmare that spirals beautifully out of control, and one extremely angry flock proving that pastoral scenery is no protection from body-count madness.
Inside this episode
✅ Horror releases from Mar 23–29
Mar 23, 2007 — The Hills Have Eyes 2
A brutal remake-era sequel that swaps the family-road-trip setup for National Guard trainees, abandoned bunkers, and irradiated desert terror. Mean, grimy, and built to make survival feel filthy.
Where to watch: Rent or buy on Amazon Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
Mar 24, 2006 — Stay Alive
One of the most aggressively 2000s horror premises ever made: what if the video game kills you for real? Glossy PG-13 studio horror with haunted-game rules, gamer paranoia, and cursed-tech charm.
Where to watch: Free with a library card on Hoopla; rent or buy on Amazon Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
Mar 28, 2018 — Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum
A South Korean found-footage jolt that turns a livestream ghost hunt into a panic attack. Smart about performance, smart about fear, and one of the best “camera keeps rolling while everything goes wrong” horror movies of the last decade.
Where to watch: Prime Video; free with ads on Tubi, Xumo Play, The Roku Channel, and Plex.
Mar 29, 2007 — Black Sheep
A gloriously ridiculous horror-comedy creature feature where genetic engineering goes wrong and the countryside itself becomes the problem. Carnivorous sheep, splatter laughs, and full commitment to the bit.
Where to watch: Free with ads on Tubi TV and Plex; rent or buy on Amazon Video and Apple TV.
🎬 Deep-Cut Spotlight
Mar 23, 1990 — Def by Temptation
A slick, smoky, neon-lit cult favorite that drops supernatural horror into late-night New York and makes every bar, sidewalk, and bad decision feel dangerous. Seductive, funny, eerie, and way too cool to stay overlooked.
Where to watch: Prime Video, Shudder, AMC+ channels, and Troma NOW; free with ads on Tubi and Pluto TV.

⭐ Weekly Recommendation
Mar 24, 2017 — Life
A tight studio sci-fi horror movie built on the eternal bad idea of smart people assuming protocols will save them.

1
00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:05.440
Spring is almost here, and horror knows exactly what to
2
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:11.119
do with that kind of false comfort, because late March
3
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:15.199
is a dangerous little stretch of the calendar. The days
4
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.079
look brighter, the air says, maybe we made it through
5
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:22.839
the cold, and that's exactly when the genre likes to
6
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:27.640
remind you that danger doesn't care what season it is.
7
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:32.200
This week, the threats aren't hiding in one shape. They're
8
00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:36.079
mutating in the desert. They're loading from a game screen.
9
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:41.240
They're smiling across a bar. They're waiting inside an abandoned
10
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:45.920
hospital for one more camera crew to go poking around
11
00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:52.039
where they absolutely should not. So keep your head set on,
12
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:57.000
keep your flashlight charged, and maybe don't click go live
13
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.719
unless you're ready for the audience to watch something go
14
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:06.799
very very wrong. In fact, maybe the button should be
15
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:21.599
more accurate and say go dead. Welcome back to This
16
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:26.040
Week in Horror History, your weekly time machine through the
17
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:32.400
creepiest anniversaries in film, TV, books, and games. I'm your host,
18
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:37.359
Enrique Kuto, and this week spans March twenty third through
19
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:42.519
twenty ninth. Coming up a brutal desert sequel where military
20
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:48.200
training turns into mutant survival. A mid two thousand's Killer
21
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:52.200
Game movie that feels like a cursed hot topic shelf
22
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.239
come to life, a South Korean found footage nightmare that
23
00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.359
turns a live stream into a panic attack, and some
24
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:06.359
very angry sheep proving that genetic engineering and pastoral scenery
25
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:12.000
do not mix. Then after the break are Deep Cut Spotlight,
26
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:17.400
a neon soaked Brooklyn cult favorite where temptation doesn't just
27
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:23.759
ruin you, it hunts you. In the March twenty third,
28
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:28.319
two thousand and seven, The Hills Have Eyes Too hits
29
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:34.199
theaters and takes the remake era Desert Nightmare into pure mean,
30
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.919
dusty siege mode. Not to be confused with the original
31
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:43.280
The Hills Have Eyes Too, which features a flashback attributed
32
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:47.080
to a German shepherd. I kind of love that movie,
33
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:50.560
I don't care. Instead of a family road trip, this
34
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:54.560
one gives us National Guard trainees on what's supposed to
35
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:59.120
be a routine exercise, which is great if your idea
36
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:05.159
of a routine exercise includes abandoned bunkers, irradiated wasteland vibes,
37
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.800
and mutants who know the terrain better than anyone trying
38
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:13.719
to cross it. It's not subtle, not at all. It's
39
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:17.639
not polite. It's a mid two thousand's horror sequel that
40
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:23.400
understands the assignment throw people into a hostile landscape, strip
41
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:30.400
away every comfort, and make survival feel filthy. Financially, it
42
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:35.120
did solid sequel business about thirty seven point seven million
43
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:39.479
dollars worldwide on a fifteen million dollar budget. And that's
44
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.759
something I won't digress massively on. But people often don't
45
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:49.800
understand the general economics of sequels. While we all love
46
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:52.759
to think of movies like Friday the Thirteenth, The Nightmare
47
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.039
on elm Street, you know, movies where every sequel was
48
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.800
a bigger and bigger and bigger box office, in general,
49
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:03.479
the actual business mind for sequels is very simple. Spend
50
00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:07.520
less money on advertising because everybody remembers the first film,
51
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.919
which was a giant hit. And then even if the
52
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.000
box office diminishes, and it always does a little bit
53
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.040
and then a little bit and then a little bit,
54
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:21.720
you're still scraping in the cash. Hand over Bloody Fist.
55
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.199
As far as where to watch, you can rent or
56
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:28.879
purchase it on Amazon, Prime Video, Apple TV, and of
57
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:35.519
course Fandango at Home. On March twenty fourth, two thousand
58
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:40.040
and six, Stay Alive arrives and gives us one of
59
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:45.240
the most aggressively two thousand horror premises, imaginable what if
60
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.600
the video game kills you for real? And honestly that
61
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:55.680
premise it still clicks, although brain Scan did it perfectly.
62
00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:02.759
This is peak cursed object horror, t insulated through gamer anxiety.
63
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:08.040
It's got headsets, save points, haunted backstory, and the creeping
64
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:11.240
dread that the rules of the game are starting to
65
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:16.600
leak into ordinary life. It's got that glossy studio era
66
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:22.680
PG thirteen energy, but there's something charmingly committed about the
67
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:26.199
whole thing. At the box office, it managed a small
68
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:31.279
win about twenty seven point three million dollars worldwide on
69
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:36.040
a twenty million dollar budget, so not necessarily a hit.
70
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:40.639
So if you want to give this little gem repeat view,
71
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:44.360
you know, another playthrough. You can check it out free
72
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:48.519
with a library card on Hoopla, or rent and buy
73
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:52.439
it digitally on Amazon, Prime Video, Apple TV, and of
74
00:05:52.480 --> 00:06:01.240
course our friends at Fandango at Home. On March twenty eighth,
75
00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:07.040
twenty eighteen, Gongeum Haunted Asylum drops in South Korea and
76
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:10.720
turns the let's live stream a haunting set up into
77
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:14.480
one of the best found footage jolts of the last decade,
78
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:17.759
and that's saying something. The genius here is that it
79
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:23.720
understands modern horror performance. Everybody's playing to the camera, everybody's
80
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:28.519
half performing fear before the real stuff shows up. And
81
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:33.399
once the movie starts tightening the screws, that fake online
82
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:39.199
bravado kurdles and fast. And it wasn't just a cult
83
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:44.120
film either. Gongeum was a breakout hit, grossing twenty one
84
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:48.759
million dollars on a reported two point two million dollar budget.
85
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:52.959
Something about South Korea. They can really knock it out
86
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:57.240
of the ballpark when it comes to scaring all of us.
87
00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:00.120
So if you want to check this one out, I
88
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:04.399
highly recommend you do. It's streaming right now via Amazon
89
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.959
Prime Video with your subscription. You can also watch it
90
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.800
free with ads on to BTV, Zoomo, play the Roku
91
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:16.879
channel and plaques. But don't live stream watching it. That
92
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.800
would be a little too meta and might not necessarily
93
00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:27.600
go the way you're hoping. And On March twenty ninth,
94
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:32.160
two thousand and seven, Black Sheep hits New Zealand theaters
95
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:36.040
and asks a question horror comedy should ask more often,
96
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:42.120
What if the countryside itself got rabies. This flick is
97
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:46.279
gleefully ridiculous in the best way possible. I'm not even
98
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.399
a huge horror comedy guy, and even I appreciate all
99
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:54.079
that they did with Black Sheep. Genetic engineering goes sideways,
100
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:59.360
so fluffy farm animals turn carnivorous, and the movie commits
101
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:03.680
completely ly to the bit. It's part creature feature, part
102
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:10.680
splatter comedy, and all bad. It grossed about five million
103
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.480
dollars worldwide, not a giant hit, but enough to earn
104
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.160
permanent you have got to see this one status, and
105
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.600
it was huge on DVD and later on on streaming.
106
00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:25.560
And speaking of streaming, if you want to give this
107
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:30.519
Bad sheep at a little love and a little bit
108
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:33.600
of blood, you can catch it free with ads on
109
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.840
to BTV and Plex, and of course you can rent
110
00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:40.120
or buy it on Amazon, Prime Video, Apple TV, and
111
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:48.240
Fendango at home. Tomorrow on the weekly Spooky Feed, a
112
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:52.240
Night at the Carnival, a fortune teller with a warning,
113
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.919
a black cat that should have been left alone. Katriana
114
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:02.399
thinks it's all superstition, right up until one cruel, stupid
115
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:07.080
act turns her whole life into a curse. Because after
116
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.639
that night, anybody whose path she crosses is living on
117
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:16.480
borrowed time. And once the death begins, they do not
118
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:24.639
come quietly. They come in explosions, impalements, fire, blood and panic.
119
00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.879
And what makes it worse is she figures it out
120
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:34.159
too late. The boyfriend, the bystanders, the family, the police.
121
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:39.200
Every step becomes a death sentence. And the nastiest part
122
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:44.000
of all, this curse doesn't just want bodies, It wants
123
00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:50.720
her alone. Right here Tomorrow, Wednesday Weekly Spooky brings you
124
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:56.759
Black Cat by Rob Fields, a vicious supernatural nightmare about
125
00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:00.679
bad luck, worse choices and what happen happens when an
126
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:06.799
old warning stops being folklore and starts becoming a body count.
127
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:10.639
By the time she realizes how to stop it, it
128
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:14.919
may already be too late. So make sure you're subscribed
129
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:18.080
and come back by tomorrow for a brand new piece
130
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:25.360
of horror fiction. When we come back, we're going into
131
00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:29.080
our deep cut spotlight and we're heading to the inner
132
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:35.559
city for it. It's slick, smoky, funny, dangerous and built
133
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:38.639
around the kind of city at night menace that makes
134
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:43.840
every neon light feel like a bad decision in the
135
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.879
waiting and at the center of it all is a
136
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:51.919
monster who doesn't kick down the door she gets invited in.
137
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:10.240
All right, we're back, so let's get into it for
138
00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:13.960
our deep cut spotlight we had to March twenty third,
139
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:19.120
nineteen ninety nine, Death by Temptation hits theaters, and it
140
00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:23.840
remains one of the coolest, most distinctive cult horror movies
141
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:29.000
of its era. Written, directed and starring James Bond, the
142
00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:34.360
third no Relation, it drops supernatural horror into late night
143
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:39.039
New York and comes out feeling intimate, funny, seductive, and
144
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:44.919
genuinely dangerous. The setup is simple and nasty. A young
145
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:49.080
minister in training reconnects with his worldly best friend, and
146
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:52.159
both of them get pulled into the orbit of a
147
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:57.919
sucubus who is less fem fatale and more spiritual landmine.
148
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.120
What makes the film realize stick is its texture. The
149
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:09.919
city nightlife feels warm until it feels poisoned. The banter
150
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:14.360
is loose and likable until you realize death is circling
151
00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:18.480
every scene. The whole thing has that wonderful low budget
152
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:24.480
confidence where style isn't polished and smooth, but more so alive.
153
00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:30.240
Death by Temptation deserves way more conversation, especially when people
154
00:12:30.279 --> 00:12:34.519
talk about black horror and everyone talking about Sinners right now,
155
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:38.279
and all of its Academy Award nominations and its three awards.
156
00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:42.279
It's also a serious footnote in the nineteen nineties cult
157
00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:46.519
favorites category and movies that feel like they belong to
158
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:51.559
a very specific late night hour. It also features a
159
00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.639
very young Samuel L. Jackson, and that alone is worth
160
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:58.480
the price of admission. I remember when Joe Bob Briggs
161
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:02.200
showed this on the Last Drive. People were very surprised
162
00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:06.279
that he picked it. I wasn't because I vaguely remembered it,
163
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:11.799
and after revisiting, I realized this, my friends, is a winner.
164
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:15.399
If you've never seen it, well it's time to fix that.
165
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:17.120
And if you've seen it but it was a long
166
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:21.000
time ago, fix that too. It's currently streaming right now
167
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:25.080
on Amazon Prime Video with your subscription, Shutter with a subscription,
168
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:29.559

169
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:33.480
and it's free with ads on two BTV, Pluto TV,
170
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:40.519
and plaques. So get your vampire on tonight. All right,
171
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:44.600
my spookies, let's take a look at some birthdays for
172
00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:49.639
this week. On March twenty fourth, nineteen thirty Steve McQueen
173
00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:54.639
is born forever the cool guy and lots of action films.
174
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:59.159
He's really legendary for them, but in horror history he'll
175
00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:03.399
always be the teenage lead in The Blob and what
176
00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:08.080
a lead he was. A very happy birthday to Steve McQueen.
177
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:14.240
On March twenty fifth, nineteen forty two, Richard O'Brien is born,
178
00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:18.720
the delightfully strange architect of The Rocky Horror Show and
179
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:23.919
the later very beloved Rocky Horror Picture Show. The kind
180
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:26.519
of thing you like, if you like that kind of thing.
181
00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:33.120
A very happy birthday to Richard O'Brien. Oh boy, this one.
182
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.720
On March twenty sixth, the nineteen thirty one. Leonard Nimoy
183
00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:42.840
was born long before one raised eyebrow became legend. He
184
00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:47.159
was already turning up in them and other genre staples.
185
00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:51.399
But of course he's most famous as Mister Spock on
186
00:14:51.559 --> 00:14:55.360
Star Trek and as a lifelong Trekkie. I've always loved
187
00:14:55.399 --> 00:14:59.080
Leonard Nimoy and another horror adjacent Leonard Nimoy element, by
188
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:03.320
the way, would be him hosting In Search of There
189
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:06.240
were several episodes of that show. That brought me a
190
00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:09.679
lot of fear and even a couple of nightmares. A
191
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:15.240
very Happy Birthday to Leonard nimoy And born on March
192
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:21.440
twenty fourth, nineteen seventy seven. Jessica Chastain. She brings prestige
193
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:25.559
to the panic in genre work like Mama Crimson, Peak
194
00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:29.080
and It Chapter two, as well as being one of
195
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:32.960
the biggest Hollywood stars out there. A very Happy Birthday,
196
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:39.440
Jessica Chastain, Hour Then and Now. This week gives you
197
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:45.159
horror as a form of failed containment. In nineteen ninety,
198
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:50.080
temptation itself is stalking the city. In two thousand and six,
199
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:53.919
a game stops staying on the screen. In two thousand
200
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:59.000
and seven, the desert and the farm both become hostile ecosystems,
201
00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:03.279
and by twenty eighteen, even the act of filming your
202
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:08.519
own fear has become part of the trap. Different monsters,
203
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:13.480
different decades, same bad news. The thing you thought you
204
00:16:13.559 --> 00:16:22.559
were controlling is already controlling you. For our weekly recommendation,
205
00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:27.840
we head back to March twenty fourth, twenty seventeen, when
206
00:16:28.000 --> 00:16:32.080
life opens in the US. If you want something that
207
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:36.360
matches this week's mood, people poking at danger because they
208
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:40.759
think they've got protocols for it. Queue up Life from
209
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:44.840
twenty seventeen. This is a tight, little pressure cooker of
210
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:50.879
space horror, smart people, expensive equipment, a sealed environment, and
211
00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:56.200
one rapidly evolving organism that absolutely does not care about
212
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:01.559
anyone's procedures. What makes it work is the escalation. It
213
00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:06.799
starts with wonder, then concern, then that awful realization that
214
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:11.079
every safety measure is really just buying the next ten
215
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:14.759
minutes of panic. By the end, it feels like a
216
00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:18.559
lab accident stretched to feature length, but in the best
217
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:23.039
way possible. It made about one hundred million dollars worldwide
218
00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:26.920
on a fifty eight million dollar budget, which is respectable
219
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:30.839
business for a nasty, downbeat studio sci fi horror movie.
220
00:17:31.480 --> 00:17:33.799
That is a huge budget to do any horror. But
221
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:36.240
I remember seeing it in the theater and I sure
222
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:39.079
did enjoy it. Not a favorite or anything, but something
223
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:43.480
worth appreciating, nonetheless, So if you want to give it
224
00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:47.039
a watch right now, it's easy. Just rent or purchase
225
00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:53.599
it on Amazon, Prime Video, Apple TV, or Fandango at home. Well,
226
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:57.200
my spookys, that's your trip through March twenty third to
227
00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:02.160
twenty ninth In horror history from Remember Tomorrow Wednesday, there's
228
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:04.920
a fresh horror story waiting for you on the Weekly
229
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:08.000
Spooky Feed, and of course, on Monday, we have a
230
00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:11.039
brand new episode of Monthly Spooky, where we'll be digging
231
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:15.039
into the creepy news and topics that you may never
232
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:19.319
want to explore alone in the dark. So stay safe
233
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:23.039
out there and keep your blood soaked enthusiasm maxed out.
234
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:25.759
I'll be back here next week to bring you another
235
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:30.720
piece of horror history for your appreciation. Until then, remember
236
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:36.200
our days are numbered because that's how we tell them apart.
237
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:37.680
See you next week.
