Don't Press Play PodcastWes Craven’s New Nightmare – The Horror Movie That Broke the Rules FirstWelcome back to Don’t Press Play...the podcast where we press play, so you don’t have to. In this episode, we’re diving deep into Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994)—the meta horror masterpiece that reinvented Freddy Krueger and quietly set the stage for Scream. Before Ghostface, before the rules of horror were spelt out on-screen... There was a movie that blurred the line between fiction and reality. Freddy left Elm Street and entered our world, and horror was never the same.2025-07-1527 min
Don't Press Play Podcast20 Years Later… Is Halloween H20 Actually Good?In this episode of Don’t Press Play, I’m diving into Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998), the slasher sequel that brought Jamie Lee Curtis back, gave Michael Myers a new mask (or five), and ignored a lot of weird sequels. Is this the best Halloween sequel? Does Laurie Strode finally get her revenge? And more importantly... should YOU press play? We’re talking kills, cameos (hi, Janet Leigh 👀), ‘90s teen vibes, and the showdown that still holds up.2025-07-1029 min
Don't Press Play PodcastThe Last Time Freddy Krueger Was Actually Scary | A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream WarriorsA Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, the Freddy film where the nightmares get bigger, the kills get weirder, and the kids finally fight back. This week on Don’t Press Play, we check ourselves into Westin Hills Psychiatric Hospital for the third entry in the Nightmare franchise. From soul puppets and hypnosil to dream powers and returning icons, this is Freddy Krueger at the crossroads, half slasher, half showman. Was this the last time Freddy was scary? Or the beginning of the end?We break down what works, what’s unhinged, and why Dream Warriors might be the fran...2025-07-0924 min
Don't Press Play PodcastLeatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III – The Saw Is Family, But This Movie Is a MessWelcome to Don't Press Play, the podcast where we press play so you don’t have to. This week, Alex dives into the strange, blood-soaked mess that is Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990). Is it a gritty reboot? A confused slasher? A gender-bending fever dream with chainsaws? Honestly… yes to all of the above. From red nail polish and weird family dinners to Viggo Mortensen playing a seductive cowboy cannibal, this movie raises a lot of questions and answers almost none of them.2025-07-0718 min

Don't Press Play PodcastIT (2017) Review: Why the Miniseries Still Does It BetterOn this episode of Don’t Press Play, we dive into IT (2017), the blockbuster horror remake that brought Pennywise back to the big screen and terrified a whole new generation. But does it still hold up? We break down the film’s plot, performances, and scares, then stack it up against the 1990 miniseries to ask the real question: which version captures the true spirit of Stephen King’s novel? Faithful adaptation or flashy reimagining, let’s find out which IT floats... and which one sinks.2025-07-0225 min
Don't Press Play Podcast28 Years Later: What Happens When Humanity Forgets How to Die?It’s been nearly three decades since the rage virus tore through the UK, and in Danny Boyle’s long-awaited return to the franchise, death has come creeping back... but not in the way you’d expect. In this spoiler-filled episode of Don’t Press Play, your host, Alex, digs deep into 28 Years Later, unpacking how the film shifts from pure survival horror to something far more personal: the rediscovery of death, grief, and human vulnerability in a post-apocalyptic world. We discuss mutated infections, haunting new rituals, family betrayal, bone temples (yes, really), and why this film isn’t just about who...2025-07-0121 min
Don't Press Play PodcastTexas Chainsaw 2022: Reboot or Butcher Job?In this episode of The Don’t Press Play Podcast, we rev up the chainsaw and dive headfirst into the blood-splattered chaos of Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022), Netflix’s bold (and baffling?) attempt to revive the iconic Leatherface. We’re talking gentrification, influencers, bus massacres, and whether or not a horror legend belongs in the age of hashtags and cancel culture. Did this reboot honour the brutal legacy of the original… or carve out a messy cash grab? Strap in as we break down the kills, the commentary, and that ending. Oh, and as always, don’t press play… unless you're ready to get2025-06-2620 min

The long-awaited sixth entry in the franchise that proves you can't cheat death... or your DNA. In this spoiler-packed breakdown, I’m giving you my raw, unfiltered take on everything from the opening disaster to the brutal new rules of fate. Does Bloodlines honour the legacy, or is it just another corpse on the franchise pile? Let’s talk callbacks, kills, connections, and what this means for the future of Final Destination. 💀 Hit play… if you dare.2025-06-2419 min

In this solo dive into Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, I’m breaking down the slasher sequel that gave us psychic children, a silent scream queen, and a masked killer who just won’t quit (or get a better mask). Join me as I wander through the foggy streets of Haddonfield, question every character’s life choices, and try to make sense of that mysterious Man in Black. It’s messy. It’s campy.

It is 30 years since the African National Congress - led back then by Nelson Mandela - first won power. It has had a majority in parliament ever since. But this year it could well be different. If so, does this de...2024-03-0527 min
