65: Lil’ Pop’s Guide to Romantic Love

Swimfan (2002) Not sure how in 2002 they were able to create a perfect visual representation of Kaeley’s future, but here it is! In this episode, we’re getting drunk, stalker-ey, and revelling in our teenage years. Also some James Taylor for added fun! So drink up buttercups, it’s about to get rowdy. https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/mar-11-swim-fan.mp3...

64: We’re Basically Unqualified

The House on Sorority Row (1983) What happens when your sorority sister plays a gruesome prank on your house mother? And ends up killing her? Maybe? Well… We get drunk and all hell breaks loose! Grab a drink and join us in this 80s slasher flick, because it’s gonna get dirty… https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/feb-25-house-on-sorority-row.mp3...

63: Oh Won’t You Be My Valentine? … No

Valentine (2001) What better way to tie up February than with a drunken Valentines disaster? Also, if you haven’t seen this movie, it has Angel in his prime which is always worth it. Your gals spent the better part of February coughing up their lungs and on a variety of drugs (not the fun kind, the antibiotic and anti-inflammatory kinds), so apologies for the delayed posting. But this one sure is a doozy for you! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/feb-11-valentine.mp3...

61: Hide the Baby, He’s Coming Down the Chimney Tonight

Krampus (2015) We made it! Welcome to the end of the holidays for 2018 and with it, the end of the year. In this episode you get a lesson on the most popular holidays for this time of year (especially Kwanzaa for some reason) and get good n classically drunk (holiday drunk, if you will). Built in Krampus drinking game: drink every time someone does something stupid. You’ll die before the movie is half over. https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Krampus-Dec-14.mp3...

60: If Only Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer

The Visit (2015) Every once in a while your gals get so drunk while recording that we need to take a break and it gets done in two parts: this is such an episode! Things we learned from the Visit: really just one lesson, don’t send your kids off with your estranged parents! Seriously, just don’t. Or do; I’m not your mom. https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Dec-1-The-Visit.mp3...

The Shudder Bugs Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus: Featuring Stormy Day in Her Guest Debut

Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) In this episode we’ve got a very fun built in drinking game! To play, simply do a shot every time Sam tells her own mother to shut the f**k up or something else equally obscene. What, do people not have that kind of relationship with their mothers? Just Sam? Fill up your cup and prepare your ears for the barrage of sound that is this special guest episode featuring Number TWO Podcast Supporter, Sam’s mom, with a side-piece of Number ONE Podcast Supporter – the r...

59: Someone Is Coming To Town…

Better Watch Out (2017) Disclaimer: Shudder Bugs is not a podcast that stays even remotely on topic (as is evidenced by this episode, in which we go on another Skip rant and discuss deeply the reality of threesomes). Shudder Bugs is not responsible for any damage to your ears when listening to our shrill voices (in particular, when Sam starts to get drunk and can’t control the sounds she makes). Shudder Bugs is also not responsible for any damage your liver may sustain while trying to keep up wi...

58: Shia Surprise!

Jennifer’s Body (2009) If Adam Brody was kind of a murderer with a totally safe-space van, would you still…? Because we would, as we discuss thoroughly throughout this dark comedy from 2009. What would you do if your best friend pterodactyl screeched at you then barfed spiky black shit in your face? And finally, what would you do if you got the opportunity for a revenge mission? Let us know on Instagram @ShudderBugs ! “Grassy-ass” Shudder Baes and thanks for listening! https://shudder-bugs.com/w...

57: It’s Just a Little Broken, But It’s Still Good…

Child’s Play (1988) Of course in this episode we go on about being so professional… Welcome to Shudder Bugs, where the tech doesn’t work and the points don’t matter! In this episode you’ll hear half of a recording of us watching original Chucky film Child’s Play. Don’t worry, we still get drunk, that’s one way we will always be consistent. Give yourself a drink and give us a listen as we attempt to bring you more horror and hilarity! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/childs-pla...

56: The Kid Came Back the Very Next Day

Pet Sematary (1989) Welcome to the first episode post Halloween! In this episode we learn to cope with the collective 10 episode hangover that hit us like a truck, by getting drunk and watching things get hit by trucks! We’re watching Stephen King classic Pet Semen-tary, sorry that’s Samatary, no no it’s SEMatary! Or is it Chucky? Grab a big bottle of vodka and follow us down! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/pet-sematary-nov-5.mp3...

This is the End… of our Friends… The End! A Shudder Bugs Guest Special Extraordinaire (1)

Halloween 2018 (2018) It’s the final countdown! Welcome to number 1 in the spoopy mess that has been our 2018 Countdown to Halloween! Where do we even start with this… This episode features special guest and number one podcast sponsor Dag Mavson! Or Dagson! Or whatever you’d like to call him. This episode also features a side-story of Manitoba’s own Simon XXX (does he make it through? do we kill another guest?)!

Manitoba’s Own Simon xXx Exacts His Revenge: A Shudder Bugs Tale of Terror (2)

Re-Animator (1985) Can you believe we’ve made it this far?! Neither can we. In number 2 of our Halloween Spooktacular we are joined by the one and only Simon XXX. He’s telling us more about how things are done in the MB porn scene with the help of a fan favourite Dag Mavson. With 1.5 special guests you know this episode is about to get reallly animated, or should we say re-animated… Simon’s back with a vengeance so drink up buttercups because things are about to get hinky. https://shudder-bugs.c...

55: The Binge (AKA Story of our Lives) (3)

The Purge (2013) Welcome to number 3 in the great countdown to Halloween of 2018! In this episode we get classically trashed and rag on a half-decent movie. What would you do if you had 12 hours of anarchy? Would you murder? Would you hide? Would you hide out in the trunk of a car in a parking garage and hope nobody bothers you? We know what we’d do… Pour a glass and join us as we near the end of the countdown! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/3-the-purge.mp3...

The Exorcist (1973) Welcome to Part Two: Electric Boogaloo! In number 4 on the countdown to Halloween extravaganza we continue with 1970s classic horror The Exorcist.

The Return of the Living Dead (1985) If you thought we sounded drunk in the first part just you wait… Welcome to day 6 of the magnificent countdown to Halloween! With our very special guest we go hard deep into this glorious boob-filled 80s classic. Brains? More brains? Yes, please! Just pickle our brains in vodka and we can call it a day (Also in classic fashion the latter part of this episode has some audio issues, sorry! Too drunk to notice until it was too late!) https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-...

Will there be screaming, ranting, and laughter galore? Will we get so drunk we can’t see (again)? Will we maybe even go a little off topic?

Don’t Hang Up (2016) What happens when two assholes get a podcast? Sorry, I mean what happens when a bunch of young guys get a douchy YouTube channel? They get f**ked up!

Where’d Ya Get Those Peepers? A Shudder Bugs Super Special Guest Extravaganza! (9)

Jeepers Creepers (2017) Where’d ya get those eyes?? Join us along with another fantastic magical guest at number 9 on our Countdown to Halloween 2018 as we get hammed and dive into the 3rd movie in the Jeepers Creepers series. Is it likely we’ll ever do the other movies? Probably not (even though they’re absolutely better), but if there’s one thing we’re known for, it’s being inconsistent (and incoherent)! So grab a glass (or 5, seriously, get on our level) and dive on in https://shudder-bugs.co...

51: Sam and Dean are at it Again! (10)

Winchester (2018) Welcome to the first episode of our 10 day countdown to Halloween! Sam and Dean Kaeley sure get wild in this episode and watch new horror flick Winchester. We drink, we bitch and complain, and we have a great time kicking off a wild ride of daily boozing! (Also would you like a podcast of us just talking about our lives? Granted that’s basically what this is…) https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/winchester-day-10.mp3...

50: She Cums in The Night

It Comes at Night (2017) Sometimes a movie just doesn’t hit that hard, so you have to hit the vodka even harder! That’s what happened to us for It Comes at Night. This not-quite zombie movie is a slow burn, which is not what we do well. But if you’re looking for a poorly produced horror musical rendition, a drunken rant, and ever more questionable life choices, this is the podcast for you! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/it-comes-at-night-apr-30.mp3...

49: How It’s Made – An Intro to Texas BBQ

Leatherface (2017) Sometimes you’re sick and hungover but to keep the pod alive, you just keep the booze going. In this episode we get re-drunk and watch the origin story to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Leatherface. It’s… ok. If you haven’t seen it, this probably won’t ruin too much for you, since it’s basically already explained in the original. If there’s one thing we’ve learned though, life is better when you’re drunk. So, shoot some vodka (and rum, and gin, and jello, if you want to be like Sam ...

Another One Bites the Dust: A Shudder Bugs Miracle Featuring Bootylicious Karamel aka “The Stripper”

Another WolfCop (2017) The “miracle” being that anyone featured in this episode survived to see another day. Once again, a Shudder Bugs special guest just can’t keep up with us. As a result, this episode took two attempts to record! Grab a drink (or 10, if you want to get on this level) and buckle up for the Canadian beauty Another WolfCop (sequel to WolfCop, which may also be amazing, but we can’t remember at all, because booze). If you’re looking for furry dicks, alien dicks, 6 wolf tits, and ...

47: A Twintuition Mission

The Forest (2016) What do you get when you combine a bad fake American accent with a half decent idea for a horror movie that just doesn’t quite hit the mark? You get 2016’s The Forest! Follow us down the drunken rabbit hole as we dive into this half documentary half horror movie. Like our lives, they gave it a good shot, but it still wasn’t good. https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/the-forest-mar-8.mp3...

46: The 1980’s Called, They Want Their Moustache Back

The Vault (2017) Look, here’s the thing, sometimes you gotta eat ribs. And when you gotta eat ribs, there’s no stopping you. Just like there’s no stopping the hardcore dirt stache of James Franco in this new-ish movie The Vault. There’s also no stopping the bad acting, the masked man confusion, and our drinking. Grab a glass and dig in deep with us for our latest episode! https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/the-vault-feb-13.mp3...

…in which we don’t discuss the anniversary at all! Apparently we didn’t even realize it had happened… Patchwork (2015) In this episode we watch one of the funniest horror movies we’ve ever seen, Patchwork. If you’re looking for some modern slapstick gore filled comedy, this is the movie for you! Grab some vodka and throw down with us as we dive into this sick Canadian film. https://shudder-bugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/patchwork-jan-23.mp3...

House of Dark Shadows (1970) How deep into the topic of rodent infestation can the ladies at Shudder Bugs get? Listen to today’s episode to find out! You’ll also learn all about Handsome Jeff and Not-So-Handsome Todd (who’s names are not Jeff and Todd but rather Todd and Jeff). How confused can we get? Very. Just… very confused. If you’re looking for girls who can’t stay on topic, get too drunk and try to chug fizzy drinks, and have a legitimately hard time breathing at times, this is the podcas...
