Welcome to the Horror Project Podcast. Join hosts Laura and Phil as they review Heart Eyes (2024).

Every Valentine's Day, a masked maniac with glowing red eyes comes back to wreak havoc on unsuspecting couples. This time, a cynical ad exec and her hopelessly romantic coworker find themselves in the crosshairs and decide it’s time to fight back against the chaos. We’re diving into all things Valentine’s Day, sharing our thoughts on the Rom-Com genre, and gushing about the latest slasher icon, the Heart Eyes Killer!
