Binge-Watchers Podcast Blog: Horror, Fleshlights, and The Car!
Welcome back, horror fans! This week’s episode of the Binge-Watchers Podcast was an absolute thrill ride filled with creepy, off-the-wall moments. Johnny Spoiler kicked things off with a playful (and totally necessary) debate about whether a fleshlight could snap from overstimulation. Yes, you read that right. "Just asking for a friend," of course. This light-hearted moment quickly took a darker turn as the conversation shifted to some seriously spooky horror gossip.
Johnny had a killer idea for a new Friday the 13th movie, which is so chilling it’ll make you want to sleep with the lights on. Imagine Jason Voorhees on a frozen lake during a family holiday gathering—nothing says festive cheer like a maniac in a hockey mask wielding a machete. Sounds terrifying, right? It’s the kind of twisted concept that would have fans of the franchise lining up for a blood-soaked, ice-cold adventure.
But it doesn’t stop there. Johnny also shared his excitement for Nocturne's return for its second season. And if you’re a fan of the supernatural, Castlevania fans will be delighted to hear Johnny's love for Alucard, the half-vampire antihero. He couldn’t help but draw comparisons between Alucard and Vampire Hunter D, adding another layer of depth to his horror-filled heart.
However, the real treat of the episode came when Johnny dug deep into the 1977 cult classic, The Car. If you’ve never seen it, you’re in for one hell of a ride. Picture this: A possessed black Lincoln Continental terrorizing a sleepy desert town. Creepy, right? Johnny delivered a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the film’s creation, including the eerie ties to actor James Brolin’s personal life and the infamous horn blasts that sent chills down audiences’ spines. The Car is a forgotten gem that deserves more attention, and Johnny was quick to give it his “Binge Now” seal of approval. Trust him, you don’t want to miss this one.
From quirky side characters—think hot teachers and a cowboy sheriff—to Johnny's genuine surprise at how much he enjoyed the film, The Car is a horror flick that proves the genre isn’t always about supernatural creatures. Sometimes, all you need is a possessed vehicle and some good old-fashioned desert mayhem.
