Introduction
- Welcome to No Bodies Episode 40
- Introductions to your Ghosts Hosts with the Most - Lonely of Lonely Horror Club and Projectile Varmint aka Suzie
- Happy Spooky Season from No Bodies!
- Introductions to our guest - Horror Heart aka Libby Roach
- Today's Topic: The Horror Alphabet Part Three
Welcome Back to the 2nd Annual October Special on No Bodies!
- The Horror Alphabet - our longest watchlist to date, featuring bests, worsts, and deep cuts from every letter of the alphabet!
- This will be a blind reaction recording - which means none of the hosts are aware of what the others are bringing to the table. The only notes we will have prepared are the ones for our own recommendations.
The Horror Alphabet Rules
- For films that begin with "The," the film will begin with the first letter of the first word following "The." Example: The Awakening would begin with the letter A.
- For films with multiple words in the title, the film will begin with the first letter of the first full word. Example: I See The TV Glow would begin with the letter I.
- For films that begin with a number in the title, the film will begin with the first letter of the first word. Example: 28 Days Later will begin with the letter D.
- We will not be including any films with titles made up of just numbers, like 1922.
