Come by and post along with a sad #FrightClub tribute to RJ Mitte. We will be watching thriller The Oak Room (2020) at 10 PM ET Tuesday. Available on Prime Video, Hoopla, and Tubi. All are welcome. 🕯️ We'll miss you, Mr. Mitte. It felt like we were still getting started.

Promotional image for The Oak Room (2020). RJ Mitte holds a flashlight and peers into the dark, superimposed above a woodsy landscape. There are some lights in the landscape, in the distance, that might indicate a small town.

Tomorrow's a US holiday so join #FrightClub and post along with another double feature! Sunday night opens with Snake Outta Compton (2018), which is *not* the origin story of N.W.A., at 10 PM ET. Available on Prime, Tubi, more. Then at 11:30 PM ET, Cooties (2014). On Tubi, YouTube Free, more.

Promotional image for Snake Outta Compton (2018). A bunch of people on the street in Compton, with a snake the size of a house above them. "The true story of the world's most dangerous spoof."Promotional image for Cooties (2014). Might've been a theater poster. "Please don't feed the children." Okay then! Bunch of people standing on the street, or in a parking lot, in... wherever this takes place. Insane cast. Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, Alison Pill, Jack McBrayer, Leigh Whannell, Nasim Pedrad, Jorge Garcia. Is it weird that the one I'm happiest about is Jorge Garcia?

Dust off those tape players Saturday! 📼 Post along with a #FrightClub double feature, beginning with V/H/S Halloween (2025) at 10 PM ET. Then continuing at 12:00 AM ET with V/H/S Mixtape (2026). Both on Shudder. This presentation will be hostless. We know you'll play nice with the other kids!

Promotional image for V/H/S Halloween. TV static, staticky skull that the viewer can just make out. Shades of blue and black mainly, with a little red. It's very Digital Jackson Pollock. Title in yellow.Promotional image for V/H/S Mixtape (2026). More static and staticky skull, chiefly in shades of cyan and black. Featuring GWAR and Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Also somehow RZA is in this? Okay.

It's the first #Weensday this October so join #FrightClub for a classic: Halloween (1978). At 10 PM ET, available on Shudder. To be followed by Halloween II next Wednesday, III the following Wednesday, and so on. All hail Donald Pleasence! And John Carpenter's indelible scoring.

Poster for Halloween (1978). Masked killer holds a knife in the stupidest way possible. Seriously, you would stab yourself just walking, if you hold a knife like this. Sigh. Well, the cast is good.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep, and #FrightClub has miles to go before we sleep... And an appointment to meet The VVitch (2015) on our way, at 10 PM ET. Well, you know, it's Tuesday. Available on Prime, Fandango, Kanopy. Watch the woods fill up with snow with us.

Minimalist poster for The VVitch (2016), showing only Black Philip, the handsome large goat from the movie, against a light gray wintry woods background. "A New England folktale."
