Scream School

Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights kicks off this weekend, and your hosts will be there! But first Thomas and Alex, along with a special guest, rundown the event and discuss what they're looking forward to the most, and what is at the bottom of their hype lists.

It's a great leap forward as Alex takes a trip down south to take in the sights and sounds of last year's runaway hit. Will Alex enjoy his second taste of the vampire sub-genre? Or he trip while on the 'rocky road to Dublin.' Guess we'll find out under the 'pale, pale moon.'

To mark the loss of the late, great Sam Neil, Alex picks one of his surprisingly numerous horror entries. Bonus! It's his first taste of sci-fi horror. Will Alex be charmed by 90s cheese? Or will he be lost in the void between worlds?

Ready for some rapid-fire catch-up, class? After weeks of technical difficulties, it's the first of four lessons getting dropped in rapid succession. Today, it's back to the 1930s for Alex's first meeting with Dracula. Will he succumb to the Count's charms, or will he just think the whole thing bites?

With the impending haunted attraction at Halloween Horror Nights, it's the perfect time for Alex's introduction to the Cenobites. Will they be angels to him? Or will they tear his soul apart?

No more avoiding it; Alex finally takes his first dive into the Golden Age of Slashers with the first appearance of Freddy Kruger. Will he appreciate the artistry? Or will he succumb to the nightmare?

No pretext, no clever wordplay, and no hyperbole; this is Thomas' favorite movie of all time, and now Alex finally watches it. Will Alex join the ranks of fifty year's worth of viewers who love this horror-adventure? Or will the school close early due to lack of taste?

Join Thomas as he guides Alex into the fog-shrouded works of John Carpenter once again. Will Alex be impressed by Carpenter between Halloween and the Thing? Or will he leave Thomas to be taken by the Elizabeth Dane to a watery grave?

They're heeeeeeeere. Thomas guides Alex through his very first haunted house movie. Will Thomas' newfound love for this class be contagious, or will Alex start looking for a short psychic to cleanse his mind?

It's time for Alex to check-in at the Bates Motel for the very first time. This is one of the three movies that Thomas considers cinematic perfection. Will Alex share that sentiment? Or will Thomas be the one who finds himself in a padded cell?
