Hi EMTs, good news/bad news situation: Bad news, we recorded a whole episode on the 2016 film "Split" and then the goddamn computer lost the file. Good news: we recorded a Patreon episode recently about the Nic Cage vehicle "National Treasure" which feels like a somewhat comparable trade. We'll be back next week with a new episode on "Split" and hey, maybe the jokes will be better the second time around! Thanks for your patience.

In this week's episode, we're watching a vampire movie chosen by the Patróns and it just happens to be set in and filmed in the seedy city of Pittsburgh, PA! It's 1992's "Innocent Blood." Special topics for your consideration include: bars that aren't there anymore, an absolutely batshit cast, a side of Robert Loggia we'd never seen before, and the most hometown movie we've ever covered (and that includes our Patreon episodes on both "Striking Distance" and "The Dark Knight Rises."

Vampires! They are everywhere! Maybe just go listen to Episode 355- "Twilight" because lol.

In this week's episode, we're discussing the utterly silly 1989 Wes Craven film, "Shocker." Special topics for your consideration include: your foster kid, confusing police work, a double dip into the world of blue collar workers being murderers, and absolutely doubting "true love."

Get into our Wes Craven catalogue! You've got Episode 4- "Nightmare on Elm Street," Episode 44- Scream," Episode 138- "The People Under the Stairs," Episode 228- "Scre4m," Episode 242- "Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors," Episode 278- Scr3am," Episode 362- "Wes Craven's New Nightmare," and finally Episode 391- "Scream 2." WHEW.

In this week's episode, we're discussing the 1979 rendition of "Dracula" that features the 1970s' most unlikely fuckboy, Frank Langella. Wowwww. Special topics for your consideration include: getting all the spackle off your face and/or neck, interchangeable ladies' names that are decidedly not interchangeable based on a classic of gothic literature, seeing to your comfort, Donald Pleasance doing what he does best (being Donald Pleasance), and the hornier heights of Francis Ford Coppola. 

Please feel free to go listen to us discuss Allen's favorite Dracula in "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (Episode 110) or my favorite Dracula (lol jk) in Episode 317- "Dracula 2000." Just for good measure, please check out Episode 355- "Twilight" and know that I have offered to cover another movie from the franchise and Allen has outright refused. Take it up with him.

In this week's episode, we're discussing the 2020 supernatural/psychological horror film "The Night House." Special topics for your consideration include: a lil bit of Pinhead, butts on the water (fire in the sky), the long-reaching tentacles of trauma, useless husbands, and great practical effects. 

We've now covered quite a bit of director David Bruckner's work. You can hear us discuss it in Episode 167- The Ritual, Episode 402- "Hellraiser," and Episode 436- "V/H/S."

Oh my god, EMTs. Don Dohler was a genius and an American treasure and his catalog should be far more celebrated. In this week's episode, we're discussing his 1982 absolute masterpiece of trash, "Nightbeast." Special topics for your consideration include: Baltimore accents that sound lovely to our Western PA ears, being a flannelman, a top 5 weird sex scene in WWA history, and the return of two characters that one of us loved.

Please go listen to Episode 178- "The Alien Factor" for more of Don Dohler's work. It's exquisite.

Seriously, we have the best listeners, hands down.

In this week's episode, we're discussing a movie that so many of you have requested that we cover, and we're left asking the big questions like...why? Special topics for your consideration include: great actors and...not-so-great actors, solid discmen, being a book boy, the very concept of casino school, Chekov's peanut butter, and babies being at fault for truly everything.

I dunno guys. What did you see in this one?? If you'd like to hear us discuss other movies that yinz liked that we didn't, you can listen to Episode 441- "The Autopsy of Jane Doe" or Episode 473- "Drag Me to Hell." I am sure there are others but frankly, I couldn't bring myself to scroll through them all. 

This week, in true Werewolf Ambulance style, we're diving headfirst into a film series by beginning somewhere in the middle: we're discussing the 1985 George Romero film "Day of the Dead." Special topics for your consideration include: having a very shitass day at work, fantastic practical effects, a film of Pittsburgh royalty, comparisons to "Short Circuit," an absolutely bananas score, and an ode to my neighbor and yours but actually mine Tom Savini. 

If there was a Pittsburgh Mt. Rushmore, you'd better bet George Romero would be on it (and not that asshole Andy Warhol). Catch his other films that we've covered in Episodes 21 and 249- "Creepshow" and "Creepshow 2," respectively, and Episode 137- "Monkey Shines."

Hi EMTs! I'm on vacation this week so no write up...enjoy the episode!

In this week's episode, we're discussing the schlockiest of 80s schlock and loving every second of it with the 1986 supernatural (?) haunted house (??) movie (???) "Spookies." Special topics for your consideration include: the joining of two movies into one, being unclear on people's relationships with one another, Duke the horny ghost, and some of the most fun and most dookie special effects we've ever seen.

This movie came recommended to "fans of 'Chopping Mall'" so I absolutely must suggest you go listen to that episode-- it's Episode 174.

In this week's episode, we're making lemonade out of Xenu with the 2017 Tom Cruise reboot of "The Mummy." Uuuuunnngggghhhh. Special topics for your consideration include: what happens when Tom Cruise ceases to be charming, being mad at the Dark Universe while having only a very cursory understanding of what it is, pity for Jake Johnson, more Law & Order alums, and some mummies, zombies, action sequences that manage to be deeply boring, and unfathomable romance (this fucker has it all). 

Haha Tom Cruise sucks. He was also in Episode 76, titled "????" from when we used to remember to do April Fool's episodes (it's "Days of Thunder" which is actually a great movie and don't let anyone tell you otherwise) and Episode 190- "Interview with the Vampire." 

In this week's episode, we dig deep into the world of police work in the 1988 film "Maniac Cop." Special topics for your consideration include: Is Tom Atkins hot? Does Tom Atkins fuck a young beautiful woman? Does Tom Atkins pull off a weird trench coat look? (My answers are no/no/sorta, yeah!) And guys listen. You know we tend to have an ACAB stance on our show, so if you're gonna get salty and feel the need to reach out to us about it, please do me a favor and just don't.

Tom Atkins! You can catch him in Episode 52- "Halloween III: Season of the Witch," Episode 129- "The Fog," Episode 198- "My Bloody Valentine 3D," Episode 301- "Night of the Creeps," and if you're a Patrón of our show, you can access our action movies and hear us talk about him in "Escape from New York."

In this week's episode, we finally break down and let my cousin and yours (but mostly mine) Joe come on the podcast as a guest. We're discussing his pick, the 1954 "Godzilla." If you've not seen it yet, watch the subtitled Japanese language version and not the English dubbed version. Special topics for your consideration include: a real emotional roller coaster of a film, the problems with having two boyfriends, each of us choosing the saddest scene in the movie, and a heated debate about the creature design.

We love creature films! Well, some of them we hated. Find out which by listening to Episode 24- "Grabbers," Episode 135- "Creature from the Black Lagoon," Episode 148- "The Wolf Man," Episode 167- "The Ritual," Episode 184- "Tremors," Episode 219- "Attack of the Crab Monsters," or Episode 375- "Rawhead Rex."

Hey EMTs! We're on vacation this week, so please enjoy one of our all-time favorite vacation-gone-bad movies, "Midsommar." We'll see you next week for "Godzilla."

In this week's episode, we're discussing the brand new 2024 prequel "The First Omen." Yes, a prequel to that "The Omen." Special topics for your consideration include: some real extreme blasphemy as we go deep on Catholicism, a few spicy questions about what ol' Jesus is willing to do, trying and failing to upgrade our vocabulary to that of the times, and one of the absolute funniest hot-dogs-on-the-outside moments we have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. 

We have covered a few entries in "The Omen" franchise: Episode 77 is the original, Episode 406 is the bafflingly named "Damien: The Omen 2." We'd also be remiss in talking about a prequel without mentioning our absolute favorite, "Orphan: First Kill" (Episode 399) and its corresponding original, Episode 395.

Hey guys, we're taking a vacation next week to celebrate our nation's independence. There's gonna be a lot of hot dogs on the outside and I'm gonna eat them. We'll see you in two weeks.

G'day mates and other stereotypically Australian things! This week, we're joined by our pal from Down Under, Pye, to discuss her pick: the 2014 zombie action film "Wyrmwood." Special topics for your consideration include: learning to speak Australian, legitimately new zombie ideas, nonshirts, new-to-us weaponry, and potentially our most irreparably horny episode EVER.

Want more Australian horror? Check out You might enjoy Episode 11- "The Babadook", Episode 255- "Lake Mungo," Episode 266- "The Loved Ones," or Episode 453- "Talk to Me."

In this week's episode, we're brought to you by giant beers as we discuss the 2022 survival film "Fall." Special topics for your consideration include: a real menagerie of diversions, the high price of adrenaline, baffling use of 1980s rock hits, YouTube people, and deep-seeded fears.

Maybe this week, just watch "The Descent" it's Episode 116. 

Listener note: due to a glitchy mic, we had to lose a few minutes of this episode. Unfortunately that's where we put all the good jokes so we apologize for that. 

In this week's episode, we decided to ask our Patróns to suggest some queer-friendly horror films, and many of them mentioned the 2022 film "Bodies Bodies Bodies." Special topics for your consideration include: the absolute oldest we have ever felt, Pete Davidson's hog, an unintentional game of "Celebrities Katie Doesn't Know," being a real Alice, and how rich people have more fun than we do.

In this week's episode, we're living through yet another zombie apocalypse with the 2009 horror comedy "Zombieland." Special topics for your consideration include: a fitting tribute to an American treasure, controversial takes on snack cakes, our feelings on Columbus (both the city and the person), keeping up one's everyday makeup routine during the apocalypse, and the delights of Woody Harrelson. 

Zombies! We've covered so many zombie movies that I can't list them all here, so maybe just go scope out "Return of the Living Dead" (Episode 17) and "Return of the Return of the Living Dead" (Episode 339) where I thought it was possible that maybe I was too hard on it the first time, so we gave it another go. 

Hey EMTs, Allen and I have always been pretty open about our mental health with you, and unfortunately this week we just were not in the headspace to make jokes about "The Sacrament," the really very good 2013 Ti West film about the Jonestown massacre. We recorded about 18 minutes of content and they were shit; we tried eating Oreos and even that didn't help. Sometimes things just have to hit the cutting room floor. Don't come for us. 

All that being said, we hope you enjoy this episode from our action movie Patreon-only podcast covering "Mad Max: Fury Road" and we'll be back on the main cast again next week with "Zombieland."

Oh! and "The Sacrament" is a 9 from both of us, Sour Patch Kids Oreos are an absolute 0. Good lord. 

Katie is on vacation so you get a rare Allen write up. This week's movie a low for a time known as a horror deadzone. But we make the most of it and bring you over an hour of yuck yucks. 

Special topics include: being a poor man's Ethan Hawke. Why is it so dark? Why is it so wet? Unwanted advertisements. When a movie tried to be every other movie.

You know where to find us. Tell your friends. Thank you all for being the best. We truly appreciate you all. 

In this week's episode, we're visiting arguably one of the worst eras of horror with the 2003 crossover movie "Freddy vs. Jason." Special topics for your consideration include: a new patron saint of Werewolf Ambulance, quibbling with a quippy villain, stupid characters being utterly unable to fly under the radar, Jason's regrets when he thinks about his past, and another absolutely lovely voicemail.

My god, we've done so many of these movies. Friday the 13th: Episodes 32,117,141, 259, 277, and 449. A Nightmare on Elm Street: 4, 121, 242, 337, and 362. Knock yerselves out.

In this week's episode, we reminisce about our times as punks on the road in the 2020 horror comedy "Uncle Peckerhead." Special topics for your consideration include: a lot of tour stories, poor band to band etiquette, dreaming about playing with Queef Queens, a stellar voicemail, and revisiting the crucible that formed our real-life friendship (a grown ass man booing a 22 year old woman. It all worked out, obvs!)

Want to hear about more punks that aren't us? Try Episode 292- "Green Room."

In this week's episode, we're discussing a brand-new film that has had the internet abuzz-- 2024's "Late Night with the Devil." Special topics for your consideration include: Katie's great new ideas for a one woman show along with some new employment opportunities, Allen dropping knowledge on ye olde television shows, loosely factual historical nonsense, and a demon whose name might be a demon and miiiight be a medication for lactose intolerance. 

Do you like modern horror movies that are set in the 1970s (I know, kind of grasping at straws here because this movie is fairly dissimilar to most of the other ones we've covered)? You may enjoy Episode 96- "The Conjuring," Episode 175- "House of 1000 Corpses," Episode 268- "The Love Witch," Episode 282- "The Amityville Horror" (Ryan Reynolds version), Episode 286- "Knife + Heart," Episode 394- "Black Phone," and Episode 396- "X."

In this week's episode, by popular demand, we're discussing the 2009 Sam Raimi supernatural morality tale "Drag Me to Hell." Special topics for your consideration include: making the tough decisions, gumming a baby, PROFESSOR Justin Long, heavy puking, and Pennsylvania snacks.

We have watched a lot of bad things happen to Justin Long; you can catch him in Episode 181- "Tusk" and Episode 403- "Barbarian."

In this week's episode, we check in with our friend and yours but mostly Allen's, Lucio Fulci, and his 1983 sword-and-sandal horror film "Conquest." Holy ghost. Special topics for your consideration include: the most Vaseline you've ever seen, cute lil baby lapdog werewolves, eating brains through a slit in a mask (like you do), laser arrows, learning to love and be loved, and the grossest thing since maggot phone.

LUCIO! We love the man so much, we put him on a semi-insulting t-shirt featuring the artwork of the inimitable Justin Gray (get it at https://www.teepublic.com/user/werewolfambulance)
Even if you don't want that-- and why would you not?-- you can still listen to all our Fulci episodes from the past: Episode 72- "The Beyond," Episode 227- "Zombi 2," Episode 281- "City of the Living Dead," and Episode 388- "The House by the Cemetery."

In this week's episode, we're going back to a question that has haunted me for years: did I actually see a good movie about scarecrows years ago, or was it all a dream? A number of you have suggested that it might be the 1988 film "Scarecrows," so here we are. Special topics for your consideration include: bad piloting, bad paramilitary-ing, bad locations, bad plans, good hair, good scarecrows, and your future World Series-winning Pittsburgh Pirates, obviously. 

This is the fourth entry into our hunt for THE scarecrow movie: the others are Episode 237- "Scarecrow" (this is a SyFy channel original film and hoo boy that was a mistake), Episode 334- "Husk," and Episode 386- "Dark Night of the Scarecrow."

In this week's episode, IT'S ALLEN'S BIRTHDAY and it's a biggie, so we're letting him pick whatever he wants. We'll be discussing the 1999 intersection of many of his interests, "The 13th Warrior." Special topics for your consideration include: what makes a good D&D movie, a very brief re-telling of "Beowulf," the Omar Sharif cool factor, religious loopholes, and some Viking lore. 

I legitimately can't think of another movie we've done to compare to this one, so I maybe we'll go with the literature angle: Episode 110- "Bram Stoker's Dracula."

In this week's episode, we are back to the well of one of our mainstay directors, David Cronenberg, with the 1981 film "Scanners." Now we know what it's like to be let down by a friend, hoo boy. Other topics for your consideration include: Michael Ironside doing the heavy lifting, dudes talking, various brands of margarine, more dudes talking, Dr. Ruth's legacy, not being able to tell apart the dudes that just keep talking, and the use of AI in the production of this podcast.

We just covered another Cronenberg film recently: Episode 456- "Rabid." Catch his other movies in Episode 88- "Shivers," Episode 103- "The Fly," Episode 177- "The Brood," and Episode 442- "Videodrome." 

Hello EMTs! No new episode this week, so we're inviting you to bask in the glory of the weird mind of Charles Band with the 1979 film "Tourist Trap." We released this one nearly six years ago, so we were like... practically babies! We hope you enjoy it.

In this week's episode, we're hanging out in one of our favorite genres: weird Italian shit of the 1970s! We've got the 1979 alien/jesus/horror cult classic "The Visitor." Also, someone call the authorities because somehow Allen has sold me on the aforementioned weird Italian shit and made me love it.

Special topics for your consideration include: the most beautiful blonde Jesus, ropey toes, Spaghetti House, fantastic Southern accents, pizzeria incidents, buying a child a raptor, and green screens for daaaays.

You wanna see more Franco Nero? You may like him as the sexiest Pope in Episode 444- "The Pope's Exorcist" AND THERE'S GONNA BE THREE MORE, HALLELUJAH, THANK YOU POPE FRANCO NERO. You like these weird Italians pretending to not be weird Italian? You'd probably like another movie by these weirdos, Episode 308- "Beyond the Door."

In this week's episode, we're discussing a 2021 horror comedy starring Allen's favorite dude Sam Richardson, "Werewolves Within." Special topics for your consideration include: some new bands we're planning to form, the world's greatest ad lib, things women hate, and the difference that an absolutely incredible cast can make.

Do you like delightful horror comedies? You may enjoy some of our favorites: Episode 78- "Housebound," Episode 126- "Cabin in the Woods," Episode 239- "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon," Episode 322- "Freaky," and Episode 438- "Renfield."

In this week's episode, we're celebrating Thanksgiving in February (as they say) with the 2023 Eli Roth film "Thanksgiving." Special topics for your consideration include: the return of teens approaching retirement age, hot takes on condiments, hot takes on breakfast foods, hot takes on Eli Roth's jokes, and a touch of eggplant.

Eli Roth is kinda silly but here we are. You can hear us discuss his work in Episode 179- "Cabin Fever" and Episode 315- "Knock Knock." You can also catch the then-fake trailer for this film in the Grindhouse series, which we covered in Episodes 329 and 330.

In this week's episode, we descend into the bleakest timeline with the absolutely brutal 2023 Argentine film "When Evil Lurks." Special topics for your consideration include: interesting internal logic, extremely gross dudes, wearing a beret and wearing it well, making tragedy all about yourself, and praying away the poop.

Want to hear about a few other movies that wrecked us emotionally? We've got Episode 224- "Hereditary," Episode 255- "Lake Mungo," and Episode 419- "The Dark and the Wicked."

In this week's episode, we're back in the studio discussing a fine Canadian children's fantasy film, "The Peanut Butter Solution." Special topics for your consideration include: what passed for kids' entertainment in the 1980s, Celine Dion's greatest accomplishment of film, bad ideas in parenting, many many brother, and what Dario Argento dreams of. 

Yinz like Canadians? Please enjoy Episode 88- "Shivers," Episode 103- "The Fly," Episode 177- "The Brood," Episode 203- "Grave Encounters," Episode 35- - "My Bloody Valentine," Episode 417- "Skinamarink," Episode 442- "Videodrome," or Episode 456- "Rabid."

Hello EMTs! This week, we were planning to discuss "The Peanut Butter Solution," but our pal Allen got COVID and I truly believe that it's not right to ask a man to watch weird Canadian children's cinema when he's ill, so we'll be back with that one next week. In the meantime, please enjoy this blast from the past with the re-release of our episode from 2016, "IT" (the 1990 miniseries). And I promise, the next time Allen gets sick, I'm doing the Brian-from-Wings-Shining all on my own. Have a great week, and we'll catch you next time. 

In this week's episode, we're headed back to the Ti West well with the 2011 slow burn "The Innkeepers." Special topics for your consideration include: a surprising amount of hair metal references, a question of ghost belief, Allen's new term for Kelly McGillis, upsetting age gaps, and a wonderful letter from a listener. 

Ti West is all over this podcast: Episode 172- "House of the Devil," Episode 396- "X," Episode 436- "V/H/S," and Episode 440- "Pearl."

In this week's episode, Katie 'celebrates' a milestone birthday with a gift for Allen: the 1980 Dario Argento film "Inferno." It's pretty much exactly what you might expect. Special topics for your consideration include: bakery smells, really enjoying just getting into a weird hole, refusing to move a camera, Great Depression beds, and late night hot dogs. 

LISTENER WARNING: there is some real gross animal cruelty in this movie, so please don't watch it if you won't be able to un-see it. 

DARIO! What a nutbar. We have been celebrating his catalog for years:  Episode 23- "Suspiria," Episode 84- "Demons," Episode 185- "Deep Red," Episode 306- "Tenebrae," Episode 325- "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage," Episode 369- "Phenomena," and Episode 445- "Opera."

In this week's episode, voted on by our Patróns, we watched the 2023 horror-comedy "Slotherhouse." Special topics for your consideration include: two middle-aged people who just don't get the kids these days, facts(ish) about some animals, questions about Greek life, a tale of a future Hall of Famer who definitely fucks (allegedly), and an absolute delight of a Mailbag!

Do you like horror movies where an animal is the bad guy? Allow us to recommend Episode 37- "Zombeavers," Episode 41- "The Last Shark (L'ultimo Squalo)," Episode 137- "Monkey Shines," Episode 152- "Anaconda," Episode 168- "Arachnophobia," Episode 193- "Orca," Episode 214- "Congo," Episode 218- "Cujo," Episode 238- "Frogs," Episode 247- "Piranha," Episode 248- "Grizzly," Episode 289- "Crawl," Episode 447- "Cocaine Bear," and I'm certain I have missed a few in there. Animals can be such assholes sometimes.

In this week's episode, we are washing the taste of "A Castle for Christmas" from our mouths with something that honestly *might* be worse: the 2014 entry into the "Conjuring" universe, "Annabelle." Jesus. Special topics for your consideration include: hanging onto an American accent for everything you're worth, meeting a demon's cousin, some super subtle thoughts about Ed & Lorraine Warren, bits of every single other horror movie ever made, being a ghostbuster, and sacrifices or something.

James Wan, COME ON. You can hear us discuss his work our episodes on "The Conjuring" series: Episode 96 (the OG) and Episode 33 (the sequel). And for good measure, why don't you also listen to Episode 303- "Insidious" because I am half-sure they are all the same movie. And if you're really into some Wan stuff, you can listen to Episode 418- "The Nun."

Guys, we did a romcom and my cousin Vicky was here! She's the best.
