This week, Brad and Cort take a deep dive into Hulu's latest offering, Hellraiser. Months after dropping the surprise hit prequel, Prey, the streamer reintroduced us to the pleasure and pain offered by the Cenobites and that cursed puzzle box. This new film offers a new vision of Clive Barker's 1987 horror classic. This time we're introduced to young Riley who is struggling with addiction. It's not long before a certain puzzle box comes into her possession. Hit play below and listen as Brad and Cort discuss their thoughts on the new Pinhead played by Jamie Clayton.

It’s been a while, but with news that one of our favorite shows from SYFY making an unexpected return for a second season we had to talk. SurrealEstate did manage to finish off its freshman season in style and give the audience a bit of closure. However, the potential for more was so evident. Thankfully, SYFY recognized the possibility for more and we’ll be back to watching Luke Roman and his team sometime in 2023. We have our fingers crossed that all of our favorite characters will be able to return. Cort and Brad also spent time talking about the recent massacre of the CW’s lineup (RIP 4400). On the bright side, we still have one last season of Roswell, New Mexico starting on June 6th. We also spent time catching up on other things that we’ve been watching and new shows that will be coming to SYFY and other networks. Give us a listen and then be sure to drop a comment to let us know what you’re watching. Are you as excited as we are over the surprise renewal of SurrealEstate? With Upfronts coming this wee

Mayor Bowman makes the drastic decision to put the Paymart on lockdown. That’s before she finds out that Luke and Cam have taken off. Elsewhere, Sarah Blackwood returns to a much changed Mawinhakin. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x08, “To Anyone Who Can Hear My Voice”. It’s only been hours for Cam, but the long wait for him to find out his father’s fate has arrived. As expected, Cam is shocked and heartbroken. Before leaving to search for the boys, Lauren and the others grab what weapons they can. What garden tool do you think would serve you best in the Zombie apocalypse?

Sarah Blackwood sees her grandmother for the first time in years. The older woman sheds much light on history of the thing in the hole and the mask it had been wearing. Luke blows up at his mother and reveals a long-held secret about himself. He’s gay and wishes he’d had the chance to come out to his father. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x07, “Their Evil Was Our Evil”.

Lauren and the others from Amy’s wedding have made their escape from the wedding crashers. They’re making their way to the now defunct Paymart when they decide to stop and help two women. The Lady Birders managed to catch one of the undead with his pants down. Granted they just think he’s a perv. No good deed goes unpunished when the rescued ladies steal Lauren’s ride. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x06, “The Lady Birders of Nepa”.

It’s Jai and Amy’s big day! Finally, time to speak their vows. Sure, his parents didn’t make their plane and some of their neighbors have become the main course. Wedding crashing zombies turn the day of Amy’s dreams into a nightmare. Too bad no one listened when Jai tried to sound the alarm.  Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x05, “Til the Dead Do Us Part”. Jai and Shawn try their best to save the wedding guests, but things go downhill quickly. Amy’s mother nearly makes an escape, but in shock over the whole situation she decides to grab a memento. They didn’t get married yet Amy’s mom. You didn’t need that wedding cake topper.  What did you think of Shawn’s surprise proposal? Were you happy to see Lauren come in with the save for Jai and the others?

Trent and Luke may have lost the keg, but the party in the woods finally gets started. Granted all of the partygoers were already lunch for the Endfields. The party crashing zombies stepped it up notch by episode’s end when they arrived at Jai and Amy’s wedding. How cool was that photo booth action? Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x04, “Forest of the Damned”. Cam has Lauren drop him off at the police station. He’s getting worried since he hasn’t heard anything from his father. He tells  Captain Pike and Mayor Bowman exactly what they’re all dealing with, but they don’t seem to believe him. This is surprising at least on the Mayor’s behalf since she faced off with zombies already at the retirement home. Elsewhere, Dr. Logan makes an interesting discovery.

Mayor Bowman has a secret. One that has nothing to do with that undead protestor. Jai, Cam, and Lauren end up back at the retirement home just as things truly start to fall apart there. Nicole makes a fatal error after getting clued into her boss’ secret. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x03, “The Grey Mile”.  How amazing was Mrs. French? Also, Nicole really wasn’t thinking when she messed with Paula’s weapon. The dead are roaming and to even temporarily disable the only weapon in the vicinity was such a bad call. Why not just tell Trey what she knows? Afraid to the the bearer of such  bad news? Give us a listen and then be sure to drop a comment

Last week left us wondering, but Bobby’s Peepaw definitely took a bite out of Lauren. Her bite and McDermott’s situation have us curious about the rules of this undead universe.  Cam and Lauren manage to come up with an idea that saves them and most of the funeral attendees from becoming lunch. There was that one guy but he kinda had it coming after opening that cold locker after they him to leave it alone. The dead are on their feet and he wants to check to see what’s knocking inside the meat lockers at a funeral home? Oh no. Just no, Dale. Bad idea all around. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x02, “Chum”.  Jai gets his first look at Mawinhaken’s new reality and his wedding to Amy takes a drop on his list of concerns. Elsewhere, it’s “Weekend at Bernie’s” time as Paul, Trey, and Nicole try to cover-up an accidental murder.

A George Romero classic claws its way from the grave for a re-telling of a very familiar tale. Syfy’s new series, ‘Day of the Dead’ has finally arrived. This time the dead has arisen in the same town of Mawinhakin. The day started out promising enough for many of the townspeople. Sarah Blackwood is minding her business at her new job when she finds herself lowered into a hole. Of course, she finds a not quite dead body. Mayor Bowman is up for re-election and she’s feeling confident. Jai’s maybe getting married and definitely taking control of his life. Maybe.  Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x01, “The Thing in the Hole”.  Lauren is making a fresh start of things. Sure her boss is a pervert, but karma comes to pay him a visit with a quickness. Like Jai, she’s taking control in her life and trying to do better for herself. The girl is clearly a badass, as becomes apparent during her battle with Bobby’s recently deceased Peepaw. Who had the best zombie takedown of the episode? Was it Lauren with tha

It’s season finale time and things aren’t starting off on the best footing for the Roman Agency. August is tucked away somewhere in the Donovan house and Luke’s gotten a little banged up. While their boss is on the mend, Susan and the others try to figure out the best way to get to their friend. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x10, “The House Always Wins”. Zooey visits the Donovan house and sees the face of her lost love, Kyle. He tells her to stay away from that house. Sound advice, but they need to get August out first. What did you think of Susan’s ploy to get into the Henderson house? How shocked were you over the revelation of Luke and his sister? Do you think Luke has lost his  gift for good? When is SYFY going to give us the good word and let us know this amazing show has been renewed???? Give us a listen and then be sure to drop a comment

It’s the penultimate episode ahead of the season finale. Megan says a final goodbye to her house and she has some choice words for Luke’s mother. Elsewhere, Susan can’t keep her mind off of work as she supposed to be relaxing and helping out for her best friend’s wedding. Of course it wasn’t her fault that the cake started oozing blood or that something seems intent on killing off the bride before the big day. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort Ep 1x09, “White Wedding”. Luke and the others offer an assist as Susan does all she can to help her best friend. With Megan vacating her house for good, August takes that time to do another check of the premises. This turns out to be a very bad idea all the way around.
