This week on another exciting and alluring episode of Who What When Where and Bryan Dressel, Joel “The Unnamable” DeWitte, Drew “Mahars” Staton, and Matt “Zombie Dog Armus” Dykes come together to talk “Brain Scramblies,” the third episode of season two of What We Do in the Shadows. Get ready to witness the Superb Owl! It’s truly incredible.
The abyssal hordes are driven away by one of the Hellfire riders that the party faced at the Tower of All. He comes in the spirit of aid, but can the party really trust him? Also, one of Fetter’s weapons attempts to work out some kind of mutual arrangement.

This week we wrap up our month of “Horror B-Sides” with John Carpenter’s Ghost of Mars. Okay, cards on the table. When we first thought about doing a month of movies like this, we were hoping to find some hidden gems or uncover some inexplicable blind spots. That was not the case and it’s clear to see why this film – and the others that came before it – are considered “b-sides.” There’s stuff to like in this movie, don’t get us wrong. It’s just…well…you’ll have to listen for yourselves.
Bryan Dressel, Matt “Zombie Dog Clovie” Dykes, and Drew “Scorpius” Staton come together to talk about Season 2, Episode 2 of What We Do in the Shadows, entitled “Ghosts.” A great episode introducing and featuring the best character in the entirety of the FX network. Yes, and that’s counting It’s Always Sunny. Come for the humor, stay for the possessed doll.
A lone windmill stands as a stark reminder to Taslinn that the tragedies of her past are never truly gone and will always be a part of who she is. At the same time, this somber structure serves as a respite from the hordes that have overrun The Shadowfell. What secrets might one find amidst this ash and atrocity?
Welcome to another exciting episode of “Who What When Where and Why We Do in the Shadows.” Bryan Dressel, Matt “Zombie Dog Terror Dog” Dykes, and Drew “Tooth Fairy” Staton sit down to talk about episode one of season two, titled “Resurrection.” It’s a super fun episode in a really strong season of perhaps the funniest show out there.
The Shadowfell is a place where past and the present echo one another, making the party look back on their pasts as they push forward toward the Raven Queen and whatever revelations she has in store. For some this journey is nostalgic, and for others it’s an oppressive reminder of all that’s been lost.
Growing tired of our lackluster choices so far this month, we here at Behind the Hype decided to try out a different horror filmmaker’s b-sides to see if we might be able to turn this ship around. We chose Sam Raimi’s “The Gift,” which unfortunately was nowhere near as good as we had hoped and featured almost nothing that we could recognize as a Raimi’ism. It wasn’t completely terrible and had some interesting bright spots, but it’s certainly an odd duck in our month of odd duck films.
