The Cherry Picker

Welcome to The Cherry Picker: the horror movie podcast where we like to kill people... but not really. Hosted by Zack Cherry and Eddie. Each week we discuss a new horror film / franchise / or topic, and finish the episode off with The Cherry Picker, an interactive poll where we choose two characters from the preceding content who we believe were/are the most deserving of their horror movie deaths (whether they received one or not). You will then have the opportunity to vote.

Episode 186 | Basic Instinct (1992)

Basic Instinct is known as the quintessential 90s erotic thriller... but is it the best one? Join us as we delve into this salacious romp from Dutch filmmaker, Paul Verhoeven, that launched Sharon Stone as a household name ("You're mother was no Sharon Stone"), and saw Michael Douglas continue to play sleazy curmudgeons. Also, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die.

If you would like to join our livestream recordings for The Cherry Picker, we would be thrilled to have you with us. Check out Zack's Patreon (Link below) to take part.
