Happy Horror Hour - Insane Horror of 2025 😵‍💫👹😵‍💫

"Everybody dies. Some of us peacefully and in our sleep, and some of us... horribly. And that's life." - The Monkey (2025)

Now that 2026 is nearing it's end, let's look back a year to 2025 and discuss some of the weirdest, wackiest, and just plain insane films that year had to offer.

I've picked out a mixed bag of crazy horror films with witches, monsters, unicorns, cursed toys, and aliens. There's a little bit of everything, but one thing ties them together (besides the year of release): they're all at least a little bit weird.

Everything is either on HBO or Hulu/Disney, and I plan to do an Insane Horror of 2026 sometime in mid 2027, so stay tuned.

HOW HAPPY HORROR HOUR WORKS

Before the event …

Watch the movies from the Watch List at home on your own. We do not watch movies at the actual event. Think of it like a book club. It's not a requirement to watch all the movies on the Watch List to attend. However, watching at least a few is highly encouraged as you'll have a lot more fun during the discussion.
If you have content sensitivities, you can look up movies on doesthedogdie.com and/or unconsentingmedia.org to review warnings.
Keep your RSVP up-to-date. If you can't make it out, update your RSVP at least 24 hours beforehand. If there is a waitlist, attendance will be taken and "no shows" will be marked.

At the event …

We’re a friendly welcoming bunch and we love new folks! 😍
Please purchase something (even if just a soda) while you’re at the restaurant. They’re running a business but being super awesome by giving us a space to meet for free. Also, please tip our servers. We’re a big bunch to wrangle.
