Here in Episode 228, emeritus host Jay of the Dead welcomes Pastor Matt, Jigsaw Jackson, and emeritus host Dr. Walking Dead—with more alumni like Dr. Shock and Gillman Joel contributing later. \nDuring this historic show, Pastor Matt introduces the new HMP 3.0 roster, officially welcoming two new hosts, Horror Movie Fanboy Brian Scott and Horror Fan Ryan Bratton! Next, the two new hosts share their Top 5 All-Time Favorite Horror Movies and recall their favorite HMP memories. \nBut the bulk of this episode is dedicated to a theme of \"Cold, Hard Horror\" movies, where your hosts take three (and a half) rounds to recommend more than 50 lesser-discussed snowbound horror films that take place in the midst of a wintry setting. Each of the rounds features reviews and recommendations from the panel of hosts. Then your hosts deliver a lively Speed Round of additional icy horror highlights, just to quickly name-drop a few more worthy titles for you listeners! \nAnd as promised, Dr. Shock and Gillman Joel contribute a wacky segment of their own prior to Jay of the Dead's bonus “review for the road” in a concluding Final Cut segment. In addition, during Episode 228, you will hear Jackson’s new theme music for HMP by his band, hello softie., a track titled \"Sometimes It Rains in April\" from the album, With Heavy Eyes and Bated Breath.\nFinally, as we wrap up this episode, Pastor Matt shares his thoughts on the future direction of HMP 3.0 and teases some exciting, upcoming episodes. This episode was recorded on August 16, 24, and 25, 2025.
