Episodes
| Season | Episode | Name | Aired | Runtime | Overview | Watched |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | Michael Myers Details | 2021-10-27 | 45 mins | A cheap film shot in 21 days changed the landscape of horror, made several careers, and gave one actress an iconic role that she's tweaking 42 years later. | Mark as Watched |
| 1 | 2 | Candyman Details | 2021-11-03 | 36 mins | The genre's first black slasher showed up in 1992, rich with subtext about racial tensions in American history. In 2021, he's coming back - and is perhaps the most relevant horror icon imaginable. | Mark as Watched |
| 1 | 3 | Chucky Details | 2021-11-10 | 32 mins | What started as a nasty spin on 80s consumerism flourished over three decades into an unlikely progressive horror property that refuses to get back on the shelf. | Mark as Watched |
| 1 | 4 | Freddy Krueger Details | 2021-11-17 | 43 mins | In 1984 Wes Craven saw the slasher boom filling screens and took it to the next level by leaving reality behind. Other slashers carved through teen bodies; Freddy invaded their minds. | Mark as Watched |
| 1 | 5 | Jason Voorhees Details | 2021-11-24 | 45 mins | The producers just wanted to rip off HALLOWEEN. What happened instead was the accidental creation of a machete-wielding avatar of conservative 1980s morality. | Mark as Watched |
| 1 | 6 | Pinhead Details | 2021-12-01 | 48 mins | Emerging from a low budget independent film, this character who was simply called "Lead Cenobite" would become the undeniable symbol of pleasure and pain and the icon of the Hellraiser franchise. | Mark as Watched |
