Horror Movie Survival Guide is a weekly podcast where two long time chums (and unlikely gorehounds) watch and talk about horror films from a survival point of view. We ask the question - how can *we* end up as the final girl? Join Julia Marchese and Teri Gamble as we take a deep dive into everything from OG horror to newly released films (but preferably classics on VHS). We'll talk about obscure details that no one else notices, spin off into alternate casting universes, crush on some foxy, dodgy fellows (and creepy uncles), and arm ourselves with the knowledge necessary to become The Final Girl!

episode 11: Evil Dead "Shut It Off"
Evil DeadSam Raimi's 1981 goofy, crazy, inventive horror classic is a joy to watch and talk about. Bruce Campbell being covered in fluids and thrown in shelving, tortuous glass contact lenses and burning furniture to keep warm - this film was horrific to make, but will live on in the horror hound hall of fame as the ultimate DIY horror flick forever.Support the show
episode 12: The Changeling "My Medal"
The ChangelingWhen your main character is someone as tough as George C. Scott, you know your ghost better be bringing his A game. And so he does in this based on a true story, light on gore but heavy on atmosphere flick from 1980. Support the show
episode 13: Night of the Living Dead "They're Coming To Get You, Barbara"
Night of the Living Dead Horror legend George Romero single handedly kicked off the zombie genre with his 1968's tour de force, Night of the Living Dead. Marion and Julia love them some Romero, and think this flick should be everyone's blueprint when making a people trapped in a house movie. Perfecto.

Rosemary's Baby - This is the scariest movie Marion has ever seen.When it comes to an atmosphere of claustrophobia, ain't nobody got nuthin' on Roman Polanski's 1968 horror classic, Rosemary's Baby. Antiquated New York city apartment buildings take on a demonic presence, anybody you know could be in a satanic cult AND Mia Farrow gets to freak the freak out - what's not to love? Support the show
episode 15: Texas Chainsaw Massacre "My family's always been in meat."
Texas Chainsaw Massacre - This is the scariest movie Julia has ever seenTobe Hooper's mind blowing 1974 flick, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, is for the hardcore horror hounds only. Raw, gritty and really messed up, this film takes horror to a whole other level. The first time Marion and Julia watched this film, they came out on the other side completely shell shocked - and with terrible headaches for holding their bodies so tensely for the entire film.

episode 16: Halloween "It's Halloween. Everyone is entitled to one good scare."
Halloween - What better movie to watch on Halloween than...Halloween! Yes, a little on the nose, but it just fits so perfectly, how can you not? John Carpenter's 1978 slasher flick introduced killer extraordinaire Michael Myers to the horror world, and made Jamie Lee Curtis into a bonafide scream queen. Support the show
episode 17: Pet Sematary "Sometimes dead is better."
Stephen King adaptations don't get much better than Mary Lambert's 1989 flick, Pet Sematary. Ghastly ghosts, zombie cats, terrifying secret sisters and a toddler doing damage with a scalpel, this flick's got it all. Not to mention truck drivers singing Ramones, Fred Gwynne being rad, and sacred Indian burial grounds...Support the show
episode 18: Salem's Lot "He commands it."
Tobe Hooper's adaptation of Stephen King's Salem's Lot was released not in theaters, but on televisions back in 1979. When someone as legendary as James Mason stars as a servant to evil, you know you're in for a good time.Support the show
episode 19: Silver Bullet "Part human. Part wolf. Total terror."
If watching Corey Haim chase werewolves in a souped up wheelchair named Silver Bullet doesn't float your boat, how about if we add Gary Busey into the mix as a drunken, Hawaiian shirt wearing, rowdy, good for nothing uncle? There! Thought that might be more your ticket! 1985's Stephen King's Silver Bullet has got both, plus Anne of Green Gables, Big Ed and a whole church full of werewolves! Really!Support the show
episode 20: Carrie "Dirty Pillows"
Where would Stephen King be without Brian De Palma's 1976 tour de force adaptation of his first novel, Carrie? The movie launched King to stardom, along with a few other folks - John Travolta, Nancy Allen and Sissy Spacek among them. Come for the religious insanity, stay for the telekinetic terror!
