EPISODE 40 | No leg day, no problem! Blast those biceps with our patented program and be ready to handle anything that preachy werewolf throws at you! Results may vary. In this episode of Terrorific, host Brandon O. wraps up season four by clawing into the 1985 cult classic, Silver Bullet.


Adapted from Cycle of the Werewolf, Stephen King’s 1983 novella, this 80s creature feature follows two siblings and their uncle as they team up to uncover the truth behind a series of gruesome murders plaguing their small town. As the body count rises along with the full moon, it’s up to the family to stop the beast lurking in the shadows before it’s too late.


Join Brandon as he uses his signature humor to recap the film’s plot and analyze its themes of family resentment, religious hypocrisy, and the struggle against one’s inner demons. Can we also talk about how sick that wheelchair is?!
