    Feb 12 2025

    "Roses are red, violets are blue, one is dead and so are you"


    Love is in the air… and so is the sound of a pickaxe swinging. In this episode, we’re diving into the cult classic My Bloody Valentine (1981), the slasher that gave Valentine’s Day a terrifying twist. From its gory kills to its eerie mining town setting, we’ll explore what makes this Canadian horror flick a standout in the golden age of slashers. Was Harry Warden the ultimate holiday horror villain? How did censorship impact the film’s legacy? And why does this movie still hold a special place in horror fans’ hearts over 40 years later?


    Grab your heart-shaped candy (or lock the doors), and join us for a deep dive into My Bloody Valentine!
