    So upset!
    Ugh, I’m so mad I found this podcast last month. It’s SO FRICKIN GOOD and I’ve already listened to every episode TWICE. This is one time I wish I came in super late so I would have hundreds of episodes to binge. That being said. I can’t get enough of the retellings and Sidneys silly quips of “you can nope right out of here with that”. Add in her fun facts and this show is killer. 🖤

    Disappointing
    I started off as a fan of the podcast but in the last few months my opinion has severely cooled. There are two main reasons for this downturn. First of all the episodes don’t usually start until 30-40 minutes in. This time is filled with reading seemingly ongoing conversations between the host and the fans as well as highlighting donations. I have no idea why this would seem interesting in the slightest to the casual listener and seems almost narcissistic. I would think that Patreon or Discord would be the ideal place for this. Now you might be saying “just skip ahead”, as the host has suggested, but I listen mostly at work and cannot always take the time randomly skipping around to find the beginning of the show. Secondly, I usually listen on Spotify where I pay to not hear ads. Yet, there are repetitive and frequent ads throughout the episodes. I understand that this is a source of income for the host but why would I care to endure Spotify sponsored ads when I specifically pay not to? Both of these issues have worsened as of late. The content of the episodes is very good but the formatting makes it nearly unlistenable.

    LOVE
    love this podcast been listening since the beginning! Found you on tik tok and I can’t stop listening! I love horror but have such a squeamish belly that I can’t watch some of the movies I’m dying to! Listening to your soothing voice explain horror movies in great detail with amazing fun facts! Obsessed
  • Debbie from Cincinnati
    Warm and wonderful
    Sidney is a joy to listen to and frequently makes me lol with her quick wit. She’s warm and wonderful but don’t let that fool you…she knows her horror. Highly recommend !
  • Biggabriel12
    GOAT!
    I’m so invested, I love how I can basically see the movie in my head without watching it. I’ve had to go back and re-watch a few. Keep being you Syd, you the GOAT!
  • ImMrFoos
    You deserve more than 5 Stars!
    This Podcast will Hook you in and not let go! I love listening to this Podcast I’ve now discovered sooooo many new horror movies that I’ve missed out on.
  • Jill Holyoak
    Sidney is the best!
    I found Sidney on TikTok and then I came here. Wow she is awesome! I love her voice, the way she tells a story and how hilarious she is. Sidney if you ever read this don’t ever apologize for talking to much because we love it! The way you describe the movies is incredible and I feel like I’m actually watching it. Don’t ever stop because I know I would be devastated. You’re a queen! 👑 Thank you for all the hard work you put into your show because I know it can’t be easy. Just know that we all appreciate you! Lots of love from some weird lady in NY that’s a huge fan of yours💕

    This was my first horror movie. I watched it in the school gym (a catholic school) in 3rd grade! Back in the 70’s they let us watch anything! I remember having nightmares! This totally started my love of jump scares and horror movies. All thanks to catholic school. lol Love, love, love listening to your shows. I’m so happy I found you a couple years ago on TikTok then your freaking amazing podcast. I listen to you religiously (pun intended). Here’s a twig and a few pebbles from your neighboring New England state (Connecticut).

    Love
    I started off with her TikToks and finally decided to come here last week. Started on episode one and I’m absolutely in love. The way she goes in depth about the movies I have learned so many new facts. Each episode could be 3 hours and I would still listen to them.
  • PJApplebottom2
    Unexpectedly Wholesome
    Ummmm why am I literally crying at every episode? Listening to someone talk so passionately about horror and cinema in general is just incredible. Every week I’m excited to listen. I feel a new passion for horror again.

    10000/10
    As someone who loves horror but is also a baby when it comes to horror I absolutely adore Sidney and this podcast! She’s always super thorough with her episodes and I truly appreciate her for it! If you’re also a horror lover (even if not I think she could convert anyone) I highly recommend 💖
  • KacieLeeLee
    Love this podcast!
    I love listening to all the movie reviews and your take on each movie as well. Always enjoyable and has given me reason to go back and watch some old favorites I haven’t watched in years! I do have one suggestions… can you add a time stamp call out for when the review starts!?! I love hearing the shoutouts and think that’s a great way to stay connected to your audience. However, some weeks are pretty long and I can’t sit through the whole thing but also don’t want to skip the start of the actual podcast topic. Just a thought. Keep up the great work you do for us horror fans!
  • danny🥥
    10/10 best recommendation ever
    Shoutout to @jiggysawgirl for the recommendation! I fallow Sydney on Tik tok but never know about her pod bc she never plugs it SHE SHOULD ITS SO GOOD!
  • lucky lich
    Very Enjoyable! But…
    I just want to say that I’ve listened and followed since the TikTok days. Loved the spoiler series! And I’m always excited when a new episode comes out. However, I have just one criticism and I hope it doesn’t come across as rude (like the chop chop guy, as we love/hate to call him). It’s honestly a little disappointing when I see a 90+ minute episode drop only to listen and find out nearly 30 minutes of it is shout-outs. I understand that you want to share your love and appreciation, and that’s great! But I end up skipping through after 10 minutes and once I find where the movie review starts, the episode has a good chunk already gone. I don’t know, it’s just a huge bummer.
  • BarHavoc
    Save your tears… it’s such a waste of good suffering.
    Thought about this Hellraiser line as I was sobbing listening to your latest run down of the It movies. I love horror and it’s wonderful to find a person who gets so moved by film that they get weepy and in turn, we the listeners get weepy. I’m loving the pod after finding you on tiktok, (I’m Lizzie/Beach Witch Bars) and I’m realizing I love it so much because you’re the perfect book on tape. A passionate reading and retelling of stories as old as time, some stories that are brand new, some we think we have heard a thousand times but you always have a fresh spin and new info. Looking forward to what’s to come! See you around our little ocean state. 🖤⚓️
  • Alea Jeremiah
    Amazing!
    I'm so obsessed with this podcast it's unreal! Sid is so funny and has the best taste in movies. She even inspired me to make my own pod! LISTEN TO HER PODCAST OR ELSE!
  • sippysnsparkles
    One of the best Horror Movie podcasts!
    I found Sidney via TikTok and immediately ran over here to start listening last year. Scrolled back to the beginning and have been binging ever since. I love the way she describes the movies. She’s not fake and you can tell she’s a genuine movie lover. It’s nice to see other people who are avid Horror fans since they were kids as well! I can’t wait to hear more about some of the bigger franchises: esp Scream! To those complaining about the shout outs, you can easily fast forward if it’s that annoying to you. As for the cussing-I don’t really mind, I just have to make sure my kids aren’t in the car if I’m listening to it lol! Keep doing you, Sid!! We love you and Wednesdays are my favorite days!
  • Parksmp
    Fantastic Horror Podcast
    I feel like I lost my horror community as I grew up and now I have found it again. Listening to this makes me feel as though I m watching horror with my childhood friends. Thank you for renewing my love of horror movies. Oh, and I agree with you that the Exorcist is the scariest of all time. I watched it after hearing it referenced in Scream. My friend and I didn’t move from the couch for 10 minutes after it ended and we were seasoned viewers. Keep it up!
  • charleymon
    OMG SID
    Sid is a great storyteller and seriously knows her stuff. I’m amazed by the speed and detail and mostly by the way she just hooks you in. Sid you’re a phenomenon!
  • hcc_019
    One of the best.
    This is one of my favorite podcasts, I’ve been listening non-stop. Found Sid on TikTok a couple of years ago, somehow magically missed that she had a whole podcast. So I’ve been having a blast playing catch up. I’m ordering myself a HC shirt for my birthday at the end of the month. I specifically loved all the coverage of It, and all the Mike Flanagan love. He truly is our lord and savior. I’m just over here impatiently waiting like a child for Midnight Mass coverage.
  • 127paola
    Absolutely obsessed
    I listen to this podcast all the time and it always keeps me entertained! Have watched so many more horror movies because of Sidney!
  • Momats
    The best pod!
    I’ve been watching Syd on TikTok since before the pod started and I’ve binged every episode of her spoiler series on TikTok and on the pod numerous times. She is just the best story teller and so relatable.
  • SLMW7
    Great Recaps!!
    The attention to detail in these re-watchings are amazing! Love everything about this podcast!
  • Billy’s Knife
    Hey Sid!
    Day 1 of asking for Scream! Also did u see Matthew Lillard is gonna be in Scream 7? #StuLives (maybe- hopefully). Anyway I’m recently unemployed and ur podcasts have gotten me through the tough times. Also Stephen King books help. I’m currently reading Doctor Sleep. Love you my Spooky Queen!

    I wish you could post everyday… but the waiting makes it that much sweeter! Love your work, Syd/Sid #FTK
  • Nikkiash23
    New Follower! Love this Podcast
    This is such an amazing podcast! I listen to it more than I listen to music or the radio. I immediately turn this on while I’m cooking or driving to work or pretty much doing anything lol. My daughter doesn’t like horror music but she loves listening to this podcast with me. Keep up the great work Sidney!
  • jewell8789
    Love!
    Love the pod. Thank you for all the research you put into each episode.
  • Farrahfau
    Best Horror pod
    I love your podcast Sid, i would not mind listing to 5 hours on an episode!!! Not many of my friends like horror like me so it’s like I’m taking to a friend about our favorite horror movies… keep on doing what you are doing.
  • katie0710
    To my fellow Rhode Islander
    Found you on TikTok, love listening to the full episodes!! Listening to you from Warwick RI!
  • Macadellic28
    Longer Episodes
    I know it won’t happen all the time but I’m excited to listen to a 4 HOUR PODCAST during my 8 hour shift it’s gonna make it fly by, thank you for all your hard work
  • boujiekenn
    love youuuu
    just wanted to say hiiiiiii !! this is literally my favorite podcast ever. i love horror movies so much & binging these & your tiktoks (rip, ban happened an hour ago) are literally my favorite things to do!! thank you for being you & sharing your love 🤍 and i also love that you have a potty mouth bc so do i😭
  • NikkiRoseRay
    Love it! But why the 20 min of shoutouts
    I love this podcast but I have to skip the first 20 min because the shoutouts are too much. I get 1 or 2 people but spending 20 min shouting random people out is too much. Maybe because this podcast is “new” but I think if you want to shoutout people do it on insta or tik tok so it’s more personalized. If the shoutouts remain this long, I’ll just listen when the snippets pop up on tik tok.
  • roma!!!!!
    My new obsession
    This is the first time I’ve left a review for a podcast and I’m glad it’s this one. This is a “safe space” the “hide in the comment section” section for people who either love horror/have an interest in horror but can’t really take seeing it. Sidney is our guide like how Rod Serling was for The Twilight Zone. If I’m not listening to music in the car I’m listening to this. A must follow!

    Subscribe now!
    I found Sidney on TikTok and have literally been devouring her pod for the past two weeks. She has an amazing personality and her voice is soothing to me, (is that weird? 🤪), and Wednesday has become my favorite day of the week. I can’t send money Sidney, but I tell everyone I know about your pod and how you are an absolute queen!
  • Mom-of-2-Songs
    Okay FINE I’ll watch Terrifier!!!
    I’m not even finished with your deep dive and your theories on Terrifier and Art the Clown and now I’m hooked! I went to catholic school for 9 years- I’ve got to give it a watch now to see all the things you pointed out and all the biblical parallel’s. Love the pod- please never stop. You are my new favorite and I need these weekly to get me by!!!
  • DaaeWannabe
    Sidney is goals
    She is hilarious and it feels like you are chatting with a friend telling you about a movie she saw. I love her and she is a queen!
  • Jefferson Keller
    The Best!!!!
    Found this gem on Tik Tok and am obsessed with her show! The energy, opinions (facts) and passion are unmatched. With the horror films of 2025 … excited to hear Sidney’s take!
  • Poshbomb626
    Love this podcast!
    It takes a lot to make horror and horrific imagery crack a smile on my face and Sydney does this on the regular. Great movie and tv horror recaps for those you have seen and others you need to see and others your to scared to see.
  • CashMoneyMomma$
    Absolutely Obsessed
    I'm actually obsessed with Sidney and her podcast. she is my 1st and probably only podcast I will ever listen to. She is me, and I am her
  • Lexiwenz0706
    Thank you
    Thank you for introducing me to new horror movies. I love how you recap them and appreciate all your hard work.
  • Penkypoo
    Meh..
    I really want to like this podcast, the content is great…however the over use of the F word is just too much, and distracts from the content.
  • E_Napier
    Tell a Friend!
    This show was a recommendation from a co-worker when we were talking about horror movies one day in the office. Sidney has reignited my love of horror, and her foul mouth makes listening to her that much more enjoyable! I’ve rewatched movies because of her, and even watched a few I missed or was unaware of.
  • Big A 316
    A Fan’s Podcast
    You can tell Sidney is a horror fan and not just a pretentious film watching attempting to be a grifter with a podcast. She loves the genre, watches the films, and knows a lot about the genre. I appreciate that as a listener. Keep up the good work!
  • Lily 🗒️ White
    Spookily Good
    I stumbled across your show and then immediately binged all available episodes, which I loved at the time but now regret because I have to wait for new episodes. I am a lifelong cinephile and horror is in my top 3 genres. Your love of movies shines through everything you do and makes each episode special. I don’t have anyone to watch horror movies with so you are my horror bestie by default. Keep up the great work and stay spooky my friend.
  • CJ/Crusadersofchaos
    New found love of horror
    This podcast is amazing and so is your TikTok you made me love horror also my mom loved horror and she passed so it makes me feel closer to her thanks CJ
  • Keetab007
    Spook-tacular
    Very first podcast I've ever listened to, one word: ADDICTING. Please don't ever stop and also, stay spooky my friend. 🫶🏾 also, the theme music, great touch.
  • nottooshabs
    Great for scaredy-cats
    I can’t watch horror movies because I get too spooked but I love hearing the plots, especially because so many talented screenwriters and directors are making really interesting stories these days. The host of this podcast is so enthusiastic, entertaining and conversational that it’s easy to just binge episodes in the background while I’m working. Despite the gruesome subject matter, an obvious labor of love.
  • Sgtc member for life
    One of my favorite podcasts
    I’ve just discovered a love for podcasts since I have a long commute to work. Sidney really goes in depth with her reviews and I love that. I’ve also been introduced to new podcasts from her tik tok and podcast and I love it. Finding a horror based podcast that’s good with pacing and explanation is difficult to find nowadays. If you love horror or can’t watch horror movies but want to know what happens this is the podcast for you!
