    470 | Aliens vs Predator: Requiem (2007)

    Michael, Rob, and Pax continue watching the Predator movies with what may be the worst movie we've ever talked about on this podcast. Full of unrealized potential, it's Colin and Greg Strause's Aliens vs Predator: Requiem, starring Reiko Aylesworth and John Ortiz (but don't blame them).

    468 | Horror Board Games

    It's Halloween, so Michael and Rob celebrate our traditional way by spending time with Joanna from Bloody Popcorn. And since we're talking board games, we also celebrate that the traditional way by spending time with Ben Graham (Board and Savior). We talk a little about our favorite horror-themed board games that actually exist, but we don't stop there. Oh no. We go on to make Rob's nightmares come true by each of us designing our own board games based on different horror movies: Night of the Lepus, Midsommar, Saw, and A Quiet Place.
