| 6/4/26 | ![]() Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) & Crawlspace (1986) | Horror Movie Review | This week on The Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we take a look at two very different cult horror films from the 1980s: Crawlspace (1986) and Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). First, we head into the dark world of Crawlspace, starring Klaus Kinski as a disturbed landlord who uses hidden passages and secret crawlspaces to spy on and terrorize his tenants. We discuss Kinski's chilling performance, the film's atmosphere, memorable moments, and whether this lesser-known thriller deserves more recognition among horror fans. We then shift gears completely with Killer Klowns from Outer Space, the colorful cult classic about alien clowns invading a small town with cotton candy cocoons, living popcorn, balloon animals, and plenty of carnival-themed chaos. We talk about the film's lasting popularity, creative practical effects, memorable characters, and why horror fans continue to celebrate it nearly forty years after its release. Join Bruce Markusen and Tracy Asteria as they explore two unique horror films that showcase just how varied the genre could be during the 1980s. From psychological terror and paranoia to outrageous horror-comedy, this double feature has a little bit of everything. What are your thoughts on Crawlspace and Killer Klowns from Outer Space?

| 5/28/26 | ![]() The Craft & Hokum Review | 90s Witchcraft vs Modern Gothic Horror | This week on the Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we explore two very different sides of horror with reviews of Hokum and The Craft. We begin with Hokum, the eerie gothic horror film blending witchcraft, ghosts, psychological trauma, and supernatural mystery inside a haunted Irish hotel. From the disturbing presence of Jack the Jackass to the film’s dreamlike atmosphere and strange symbolism, Bruce and Tracy discuss what worked for them, what left them questioning things, and whether the online hype surrounding the film lived up to expectations. We then revisit the cult 1990s classic The Craft, discussing its memorable cast, themes of power, bullying, friendship, and revenge, and why the film still connects with horror fans nearly 30 years later. Join Bruce Markusen and Tracy Asteria for a conversation about witchcraft, haunted hotels, psychological horror, cult classics, and modern gothic storytelling.

| 5/21/26 | ![]() TJ Payne Interview | Intercepts | This week on the Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we sit down with horror author TJ Payne, the writer behind Intercepts, The Venue, and In My Father’s Basement. TJ joins us to talk about leaving Hollywood screenwriting behind to pursue darker storytelling, the disturbing themes at the heart of Intercepts, and why human behavior can be more frightening than anything supernatural. We also discuss horror influences, psychological tension, self-publishing, and the growing appetite for intense horror fiction. If you enjoy psychological horror, conspiracy-driven stories, and thoughtful conversations about modern horror writing, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

| 3/26/26 | ![]() Green Room vs Hush (2016) | Two Intense Horror Films You Need to Watch | In this episode of the Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we take a deep dive into two intense horror films released in 2016: Green Room and Hush. We begin with Green Room, a brutal and fast-paced thriller starring Anton Yelchin in one of his final performances. The film follows a punk band trapped in a deadly situation inside a neo-nazi bar, where tensions escalate quickly, and survival becomes uncertain. We discuss the film’s relentless pacing, shocking moments, and Patrick Stewart's unsettling performance in a role that is far from what audiences typically expect. We then move into Hush, directed by Mike Flanagan and starring Kate Siegel. This home invasion thriller offers a unique perspective, placing us alongside a hearing-impaired writer fighting for survival against an intruder. The film builds tension through silence, isolation, and careful storytelling, creating a gripping and immersive experience. This episode explores what makes both films effective in very different ways, from chaotic, violent intensity to quiet, calculated suspense, along with our final thoughts and ratings.

| 2/19/26 | ![]() Dracula 2026 and The Hitcher 1986 | Gothic Darkness and Highway Terror | In this episode of The Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we take on two very different sides of horror with Dracula from 2026 and the 1986 thriller The Hitcher. We begin with a fresh take on the Dracula legend, diving into Vlad’s tragic origin story, the emotional weight behind his transformation, and the performances that bring this darker version of the character to life. We talk about the gothic atmosphere and whether this new interpretation earns its place among other Dracula adaptations. Then we hit the highway with The Hitcher, revisiting the tense, unsettling cat-and-mouse game between Jim Halsey and the mysterious John Ryder. We break down the psychological intensity, the escalating danger, and why Rutger Hauer’s performance still stands out decades later. From shadowy castles to deserted roads, this episode explores two stories built on obsession, pursuit, and survival. Join us for another deep dive into horror, old and new.

| 1/8/26 | ![]() Underrated 2025 Horror Films: Bring Her Back & Keeper | On this week’s episode of The Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we talk about two horror films from 2025 that were quietly released but left a strong impression. While big titles like Sinners and Weapons dominated the conversation, Bring Her Back and Keeper deserve a closer look. We start with Bring Her Back, an Australian supernatural folk horror film from the directors of Talk To Me, Danny and Michael Philippou. The story follows two siblings placed into foster care after a traumatic loss, only to discover that their new home is shaped by grief, obsession, and dark occult practices. We discuss the disturbing atmosphere, the unsettling character of Ollie, and the way the film uses emotional trauma to drive its horror. We then move on to Keeper, directed by Osgood Perkins and starring Tatiana Maslany and Rossif Sutherland. What begins as a quiet anniversary getaway slowly turns into something far more disturbing. The film leans into slow tension, isolation, and ritual rather than jump scares. We talk about its eerie tone, divided audience reactions, and why it stands out from more conventional horror films. Both films explore grief, control, and the danger of crossing lines that should never be crossed. If you enjoy slow-burning horror, folk horror, and psychological tension, this episode is for you.
