“What a wicked game you play, to make me feel this way. What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you. What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way. What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you.” – Excerpt from “Wicked Game” by Chris Isaak
Welcome to Horror Movie Weekly, One Badass Horror Podcast. This is Episode 136. During this show, Jay of the Dead, Mister Watson and Projectile Varmint bring you a Feature Review of Wicked Games (2023). (Sorry, no Channy Dreadful this week or next week, but she’ll return soon!) In addition to our Feature Review, we also bring you a couple of Micro Horror Movie Reviews for “Villains” (2019) and “The Barge People” (2019). Remember, you are welcome to call and leave us a voicemail at our working voicemail number: (801) 899-9798. Join us!
Note: This episode was recorded on April 26, 2023, and was released on April 29, 2023 — the 11-year anniversary of the launch of Jay of the Dead’s second Horror podcast, Horror Metropolis.
This weekly Horror movie podcast brings you one recent Horror movie review every Sunday. (We’re defining “recent” as any Horror movie released within the last five years or the current year; so now that it’s 2023, we’ll be covering Horror films from 2018 to the present.) And we always reveal next week’s pick at the end of every show, so you can watch along with us and be prepared for the following episode. Join us, and thanks for listening!
