Now by-request, Episode 34 honours long-standing fan, Queen Liz, with her own posthumous request-episode. Lend us your ears, send us your money, and settle down with a large, straight gin and your preferred valet – should you require subsequent refreshments – and anoint your brain with the sounds of horror and nonsense.

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 32: Stones of StennessWelcome back! The return of LMAHMpod for Series 3 kicks off with a Dave-pitch, this time a Scottish, archeologically-themed, folkloric mystery-bloodbath, specifically intended as a Gerard Butler vehicle. Due to the hiatus, Act 1 is a catch-up on bits and bobs (as opposed to the usual feedback on prev. ep), Act 2 covers the fantastic FrightFest 2021 Digital Festival including ‘As in Heaven, So on Earth’, ' The Brilliant Terror', ‘Sweetie You Won’t Believe It’, ‘Gaia’ and ‘Evie’, the latter by Dominic Brunt & Jamie Lundy. Act 3 is the pitch itself – Stones Of Stenness – expect accents. And by Act 4 we’d drunk really quite a lot, so it’s a qu...2021-10-021h 17

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 28: Marionette MacabreA couple in their early thirties make a hasty and life-changing decision in moving to rural France for the good life, whilst their best friend Clive dedicates his life to finding out what happened to them… Hear Dave’s latest horror movie pitch ‘Marionette Macabre’ in Act 3!
Apologies the edit/release was a touch delayed thanks to 3 days of fabulous horror movies (cheers Frightfest!), however in Act 1 we catch up on feedback for ‘Hobbslawn’ from Ep27, and in Act 2 we cover the book The Living Dead by George Romero and Daniel Kraus, as well as Netflix’ Transformers War for Cybert...2020-09-031h 13
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 27: Hobbslawn (aka 'Hot Episode')What happens when two hosts sit in 37+degree heat for two hours? Episode 27 is what happens! Take a swirling trip upon our magic yet rapidly descending ship of heat delirium and enjoy Jon’s pitch in Act 3’s ‘Hobbslawn’. A quaint English village is about to experience some ancient, righteous anger, and it's not pretty!
Act 1 as always sees feedback on our last pitch (2 eps ago) and my god it was hot. Act 2 has a few quick japes around three horror movies – Host, Culture Shock and The Beach House – did I say how hot it was? And as always Ac...2020-08-171h 13
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 26: '1BR' Interview - LMAHMpod Meets...It’s a special episode of LMAHMpod where Dave & Jon meet Producer - Alok Mishra, and Emmy nominated Actress - Naomi Grossman, of Horror/Thriller ‘1BR’ (Apartment 1BR).

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 25: The Moon CursersKing George III has just taken the throne and may still hold the colonies, but back home in pitch-black London-by-night, eerie things have been going down and Link Boys are in the frame… That’s right, its Episode 25 and Dave delivers another one of his historical Horror Movie pitch/walk-throughs in Act 3 – “The Moon Cursers”. Its proper grim, so consider this fair warning. It’s worth it though, I’m sure.
Act 1 as usual sees listener feedback on the previous episode’s horror pitch - Jon’s ‘he Lies Bleeding’, and Act 2 covers off Horror Movies Metamorphosis, Relic, and 1BR / Apartm...2020-07-271h 09
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 24: he Lies BleedingEpisode 24 thumps into your ears with all the subtlety of a Schwerer Gustav cannon, providing a horrific return to the diabolical in Jon’s pitch ‘he Lies Bleeding’ (yes, with a small h. Ffs). In Act 1 we get two rounds of listener feedback and updates to The Barber and The Butchers – Netflix, honestly, just give us a call – and in Act 2 we get another classic Dave rant, this time Marvel’s Hawkeye is in his sights, alongside a quick jaunt past the horror movies Hagazussa and Insidious 4, as well as some nonsense.
Act 3 of course is the pitch – that...2020-07-131h 07

Also, in Act 1 you can hear resident non-domicile Scottish correspondent JDubz’ feedback on Ep 22’s pitch ‘Metal Sky’, whilst in Act 2 we hear a bit about new horror movie ‘Becky’, alongside ‘The Last Of Us Part 2’ and the novel ‘Devolution’ by Max Brooks.
Act 3 is Dave’s first return to the Pitch arena post-covid, or ‘POCO’ if you will, and he’s taken the gloves off. It’s a futuristic nightmare with protagonists in their late 50s...2020-06-291h 13
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 22: Metal SkyWelcome back – it’s the return of LmaHmPod! That’s right, after 3 long months of lockdown, Jon & Dave opted not to swap fluids any longer and instead committed themselves to a socially-distanced recording session – the first ‘PoCo’ if you will.
So, without further ado, it’s a new Jon pitch and it’s a brutal one. He didn’t earn the moniker ‘Thirty Ded Kidz’ (3DK) for nothing – check it out in Act 3! Alongside that there’s a general catch-up in Act 1 as feedback was covered in the Memento Morisode, and in Act 2 we dive through a few new horror movies (Col...2020-06-151h 05
Let's Make a Horror MovieMemento Morisode #1 : Behind the CurtainLMAHMpod’s Memento Morisodes are the new normal until the Corona virus ‘does one’, to use the parlance of the locality, and this is the first one so get involved!Kicking off with an update on LMAHMpod’s situation, courtesy of Ozzy, we move swiftly into feedback on Episode 20’s pitch ‘King Fae’ before a tidy, sensible and completely uninterrupted wrap-up. All of which not only involves singular host Dave, but all the voice-artist guests we’ve had on the last 9 or so episodes – even Robert Durst is back! So six guests, plus Dave, but no Jon. It's a real glimps...2020-04-0800 min
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 20: King FaeIt’s our 20th Episode and Jon pulls a mad one out of the bag to mark the occasion. Folklorish body-horror abounds in Act 3’s ‘King Fae’ – an English yarn with a gruesome finale. Act 1 sees some listener additions to Ep19’s ‘The Vaults’, whilst Act 2 covers ‘How to Stare at Famous People’.. like, just in general, as well as the horror movies Snatchers and I Trapped the Devil, and LMAHMPod’s survival tips for the COVID19 pandemic. Act 3 is the aforementioned ‘King Fae’ horror movie pitch, whilst Act 4 is the post-mortem and title-search as well as Jon’s recollections of the famous...2020-03-151h 10
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 19: The Vaults“It’s all Brow”. Ep19 arrives with a contemporary, ghoulish horror movie pitch from co-host Dave and it’s a straight up gore-fest. But the fun kind. Set in “one of the most haunted places in the UK”, there’s a touch of the ‘will they’, ‘won’t they’ keep hold of their own face. A story as old as time. Act 1 delivers some dedicated Nun feedback from those in the know, whilst Act 2 touches on some good horrory reads as well as a quick swerve into Aesop’s classic ‘The Tale of The P!ss!ng Shrew’. Act 3 is the soon to be modern class...2020-03-041h 10
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 18: MissionStepping up like a true gentleman when co-host Dave is in need, Jon takes the reins again this week with ‘Mission’. A bleak, claustrophobic horror set in a house of Nuns. A Mission, if you will. *cough* Anyhoo, in a blasphemous break from tradition, this is the second Jon-pitch episode in a row, but boy it delivers! Dave does contribute a bit by causing the sound to go haywire for the first 3 mins before finally arriving at something moderately audible. It’s worth it though as in Act 1 we receive some feedback castigation from ‘JDubz’ (and some ideas for Ep17’s pit...2020-02-191h 10
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 17: Nuckelavee CountryIt’s Episode 17! A Jon week and the final part of our Sequels Month. In Act 3 3DK delivers his follow up to Dave’s to ‘A Long Way From God’ (from ‘Early Years LMAHMPod’) with a cannibalism infused, Scottish Highlands escapade including a regiment of the Queen’s finest and a satchel full of eyeballs! Act 1 as ever sees feedback on last episode’s pitch with a veritable feast of input from listeners, whilst Act 2 takes a brief look at the Witcher but is more a long winded apology to Mr Cavill and a paen to his nocturnal habits, amongst other cu...2020-02-031h 08
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 16: Fertilized EarthIt’s ‘Sequels Month’ here at LMAHMpod, and as it’s a Dave week he kicks proceedings off with a brutal, desolate sequel to Jon’s Episode 13 Pitch ‘Goodbye Tomorrow’. Picking up the futuristic setting 6 years after the events of the first somewhat sci-fi infused horror movie pitch, Dave adds in some listener feedback from the original and fully lets the crazy out again. As usual there is listener Feedback to Ep15 in Act 1, which also takes a detour into 20 year old events from UK TV Soap ‘Hollyoaks’ with very little justification, before Act 2 jumps into BBC’s Dracula mini-series and a br...2020-01-121h 09
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 15: Trying ChristmasAs 2020 rises from the ashes of 2019, Jon delivers his latest Horror Movie pitch in the form of ‘Trying Christmas’ – part two of our Christmas Specials! With touches of a historically accurate Victorian London throughout, this episode delivers all the usual farce. Act 1 sees some audience updates to last Episode’s ‘Sunken God’s pitch, Act 2 takes a Christmassy turn about the cultural grounds of the last fortnight, and Act 3 is Jon’s family-Christmas horror-pitch with a bunch of additional nonsense immediately preceding it. Act 4 is 5 mins of post-mortem followed by a quick name-search and hugely inappropriate laughing session to do with orphan...2020-01-011h 02
Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 14: Sunken GodsGrab life by the neck, wrestle it to the ground and kick it to death with us in Episode 14 – the first of our two Christmas Specials! An aural Christmas stocking, it’s filled with glitter and pool balls, ready to be liberally applied to the face or head. Magical. It’s a Dave week and in Act 3 we cover off ‘Kid Smack’ and the problems of getting heroin for children at Christmas, as well as a getting a belting Horror Movie Pitch set in Ancient Greece – ‘Sunken Gods’. Act 1 sees some grim but wonderful listener updates to Ep13’s ‘Goodbye Tomorrow’ pi...2019-12-181h 08Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 13: Goodbye TomorrowJon barrels into LmaHmPod’s woodsy-cabin this week with our first firm foray into off-world oddities, Goodbye Tomorrow. An upbeat number about a sort of apocalypse. Sort of. It is a pitch for a horror movie after all. Act 1 sees, amongst others, some chunky feedback from JDubz, including some ‘far-seeing’ with feedback on today’s as yet unheard pitch! Act 2 as always rattles through the things we enjoyed that we stare at with our eyes, and there’s a snifter of an Act 4 given that Jon already pre-named his pitch. Tsk. Oh and Jon's new name is '3DK'.

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 12: Down The MountainA somewhat recovered Dave takes centre stage in Act 3 for this episode’s Horror Movie pitch ‘Down The Mountain’. You know when stuff happens on a mountain, it’s infrequently pleasant. In Act 1 we’re treated to a listener’s ‘choose your own feedback’ feedback on the prior LMAHMian Gordian Knot and Act 2 skates around things wot goes in ears and eyes. Also, probably 4 acts from here on fyi.. Lastly, Jons a bit quiet in the mix. The sound engineer is in pieces…

Spooky! (Also illness.) Jon delivers a veritable feast of deceased 'younglings' in his quest to pitch a Horror Movie that ghoulishly delivers on the “true spirit of Halloween”. Act 1 kicks off LMAHMPod’s first inter-listener spat, whilst in Act 2 Dave & Jon take a brief wander through ITV’s latest Horror TV show, Halloween 3, Little Monsters and Creepshow. Act 3 is the pitch itself, and this week because we’re feeling whimsical, we’ve gone and got ourselves and Act 4 too.. ‘Appy ‘Alloweeen Everyone!

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 10: The Last Bear [Halloween Special #1]It’s October and the first of two Halloween Specials – apt for our 10th episode milestone! It’s also a Dave week, and in Act 3 he delivers his pitch ‘The Last Bear’, a modern tale of all hallows horror. In Act 1 we cover off feedback to Jon’s pitch ‘Hand of Anubis’ from Ep 9, and in Act 2 we take a turn about the grounds of the current cultural landscape inc. Molly Gloss, '3 From Hell', 'Crawl', 'Codename: Blank' podcast and Ed Gein's domestic upholstery. All heavily infused with silly, having previously been distilled in nonsense. Also, most of the Beatles make an a...2019-10-131h 05Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 9: Hand of AnubisJon sallied into Episode 9 with the confidence of a man who knows he’s got a cracking horror movie pitch in his pocket. Being an ‘odds’ week its KJyon’s turn and he doesn’t disappoint with his delirious descent into the demented ‘Hand of Anubis’. JDubz pitches his thoughts on Ep 8’s ‘Spoils of War’ back to us in Act 1 (as well as a wee tune he made) and Act 2 touches on Tigers Are Not Afraid with an update on Jon’s ‘Kingian’ condition. Plus all the usual morbidly glib nonsense.

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 8: Spoils Of WarIt’s a Dave week. He’s had a drink, a bit tired, prone to a rant and more than a little bit sweary, however in Act 3 delivers ‘Spoils of War’, a horror movie pitch of [potentially] epic proportions, set in Asia Minor. Jon answers some feedback on Ep.7’s ‘Empty Skin’ pitch and accuses Stephen King of ‘borrowing’ his ideas, plus a quick note on Korean movie The Wrath as well as all the usual nonsense... Oh and we have an intro. For now at least.

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 7: Empty SkinIt's a Jon/John/Jhoyn pitch this week and it's a banger. His longest yet at 2 whole sides of A4! In this episode we cover off listener input & questions for 'The Haymakers Daughter', get some FrightFest movie updates from Jon and 2 bizarre rants from Dave. One on the 'live action' Lady and The Tramp' and the other on Mothman - the latter so unhinged we've given it a rare 4th Act status. With Act 3 bringing JJJ's pitch 'Empty Skin' - a creature feature!

Let's Make a Horror MovieEpisode 6: The Haymaker's DaughterContinuing Dave & Jon's Horror Movie Pitch adventure, Dave regains the reins for this week's Horror effrontery. In this episode Act 1 sets The Triceratops on the right track with an embarrassment of listener improvements, someone continues picking holes in Ep4's demonic island antics and in Act 2 we discover Jon has been 'building up' to IT 2 in a sort of metaphysical sense whilst Dave has been putting things in his ears. Act 3 is another small mental breakdown. This time in t'English countryside in a not so distant future… or future past.. or future future.. or something..

The Sawney Bean origin story movie-pitch from Ep 4 gets deliciously updated in Act 1, adding a bit more sauce to ‘the Beans’. Dave loses his marbles over 2003’s ‘TipToes’ whilst Jon advocates for more cannibalism in print. Also, Act 3 sees Jon pitch his dystopian nightmare movie – Triceratops.
