Step into the neon glow of VHS nostalgia with Episode 2 of the Detached and Loving It Podcast – When Horror Took Over Pop Culture.
In this episode, we rewind the tape to explore how horror went from cult status to mainstream dominance during the 1980s and 1990s. From Freddy Krueger’s wisecracks to Jason Voorhees’ slasher reign, and from Scream’s meta-horror revival to Kevin Williamson’s universe of I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Faculty, and The Craft—we’re diving into the era where horror wasn’t just for midnight screenings… it was everywhere.
🔪 What we cover:
How horror icons became MTV-era celebrities
The rise of franchises like A Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, and Chucky
The 90s resurgence that redefined the genre for a new generation
The intersection of horror with music videos, fashion, and pop culture
Why the VHS era still shapes how we consume horror today
This episode is packed with pop culture throwbacks, genre deep dives, and retro energy that defines what Detached and Loving It is all about. Whether you’re a fan of VHS rentals, 4K collector’s editions, or just love a good scream, this one’s for you.
