Progressively Horrified
A podcast that holds horror to standards horror never agreed to. Hosts Jeremy Whitley, Ben Kahn, Emily Martin and guests watch, read, listen to, and check out movies, TV shows, comics, books, art and anything else from the horror genre and discuss it through a progressive lens.

Le Vourdalak (aka Dick Spliters) with Jadzia Axelrod
Happy Pride y'all!Frankly movie is not the gayest one we've ever covered, but it damn sure may be the queerest.

Dream House (aka Business Goose Confirmed) w/ Erica Henderson
Years ago, when we first had Erica on the show the first time, she wanted to talk about the Hong Kong horror movie Dream Home, but it had disappeared from all the streaming platforms.

It's THE Feel Bad Movie of 2025, making it to the podcast! Bring Her Back is a movie about Sally Hawkins being the absolute worst and tormenting poor children and just how for adults will go to justify doing whatever they wanted to do in the first place.

Talk to Me (aka Possession is a Party Drug) w/ Asia Simone
Take our hand and come with us to the magical world of Australia as we tackle one of the most genuinely great horror movies of the 2020's "Talk to Me".

Ash (aka Space Durdened)
Look, there were just too many potential names for this one. The sky on this planet comes pre-shroomed. The cultural context of the medic bot's voice is troubling. People who find a giant AC vent installed into the ground of a planet and throw a rock in deserve to die. The biggest moment of horror in this movie is only horrifying once you've seen all of it. It's a wild one, though not as memorable

Blink Twice (aka Not the Bob of a Hero) w/ Amanda Meadows, Vita Ayala, Emmanuel Lipscomb
This movie is one big trigger warning. Channing Tatum has his evil twin goatee so you know it's on. I've seen Heathers, so I would never do drugs near Christian Slater. Alia Shawkat has never survived a horror movie and that's not about to change now. If I walked into my therapist office and Kyle Maclahlan was my therapist, I'd turn around and leave.Who's responsible for this?Director: Zoe Kravitz

Birds (aka Annie Hayworth Gay Icon)
We came up short a guest this week, so it's just the three hosts talking about a true classic where a whole town of people get taken out by some angry pigeons. But the real story of this thing is the red hot chemistry between Tippi Hedron and Suzanne Pleshette as Melanie and Annie. Sure, they're talking about a man that both of them claim to have the hots for, but the only chemistry happening is t
Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (aka Les Incompétents) with Justin Richards
You've seen the slasher from every possible point of view...or have you? Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is about an aspiring slasher who brings along a documentary crew for the ride to show them what he does and how he does it. The humor is dark. The references are thick on the ground. The twists, well, you'll have to see those. This one created a hard point of disagreement between our
