In this review of Cold Storage (2026), we break down the new horror-comedy starring Liam Neeson and Joe Keery and ask a bigger question: Do horror comedies actually work?
Cold Storage follows two night-shift employees trapped inside a self-storage facility after a decades-old government experiment — a fast-mutating parasitic fungus — escapes containment. What starts as strange alarms underground turns into full-blown body horror chaos, mutations, and a race to stop an outbreak before it spreads beyond the building.

In this episode, we discuss:

What worked in Cold Storage (performances, creature concept, contained setting)
Where the movie struggled (tone balance, tension, pacing)

Whether the humor strengthens or weakens the horror

And if horror-comedies can truly scare you while making you laugh

Is Cold Storage a successful horror-comedy?

Does comedy kill fear?

Or can both genres coexist without canceling each other out?

If you’re into horror movie reviews, creature features, horror-comedy debates, and film analysis, this episode dives deep into what makes the genre mashup succeed — or fail.

Did Cold Storage scare you, or was it just a fun ride?
