Hannibal is renewed for a third season and director Christopher G. Moore is officially welcomed aboard the Hannibal Fan Podcast as the fourth co-host for the show. It's a big news day and a big episode with lots of details to discuss.

Michael (Boardwalk Empire) Pitt paints a disgustingly vile figure with his version of Mason Verger. He is a despicable human being stealing the tears from a child and a child from his sister. Vile!

Elsewhere, Alana Bloom is floored by a shocking reveal that has the audience and the podcast show's hosts breathing a sigh of relief. Thomas, Christopher, Dave and Doc examine each plot point with only 2 more show left.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) Our favorite wall crawler returns in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 bringing with him Electro, The Green Goblin and The Rhino. To some this is all a big bag of nonsense, for others it is an emotional roller-coaster focusing on the story of Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy. Some of it works. Some of it fails miserably. The grue-crew has strong opinions on it, 'Nuff Said.

Horror News of the Week for 05/05/2014 Dave Dreher shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with news of Halloween 3 which may or may not be in 3D. Stephen King fans are all excited about the promo for his next novel Mr. Mercedes. Was that Pennywise? Not many horror fans are aware that horror great Dan Curtis produced and directed a televised version of Dracula starring Jack Palance. The film is getting a Blu-Ray release. More Godzilla news building up to a battle of kaiju monsters. Finally, the WGN television show Salem is getting renewed and Doc has something to say about this!

"This little piggy went EEEEEHHHHH all the way home?" Mason Verger terrorizes his sister Margot as he drops a meat puppet version of her into a pit of hungry pigs. Thomas, Dave and Doc are once again joined by director Christopher G. Moore to discuss NBC's hit television show Hannibal. But what is the meaning of long pig. Oh, Freddie.

Finally, we are introduced to the long anticipated character, Mason Verger portrayed by Michael (Boardwalk Empire) Pitt. Who knew he would end up a mix of a random James Bond villain and 80's pop star Thomas Dolby. Regardless he is ever bit as unnerving as expected. The show goes into bizarre territories with a blend of two simultaneous love scenes between Will & Margot and Hannibal & Alana with a little of the Hannibalized-Wendigo sprinkled in for good measure. It is a shocking episode that puts Will in a very precarious place, no longer seeing good and evil.

The Quiet Ones (2014) What the heck happened? A great idea and a great cast squandered for a mediocre horror film - although The Quiet Ones is a tight, entertaining little thriller. The scares are forced and few and far between but the acting is terrific with Jared Harris and Olivia Cooke getting most of the recognition. But what happened to the scares? Listen to the grue-crew investigate during the podcast to find out.

Horror News of the Week for 04/28/2014 Dave Dreher shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with his favorite horror icon making it to serial television, Jason Voorhees with a Friday the 13th show. The trailer for As Above, So Below may have been the scariest thing about The Quiet Ones - d'oh. Kevin Smith returns to horror with his Tusk cast in tow to create Anti-Claus, as holiday horror anthology. Maybe. Santos nearly throws up with the disclaimer that Universal's Dracula Untold described as a "family fantasy film." Oh, dear. Showtime is presenting the first episode of their horror show Penny Dreadful a full month ahead of its premiere date.

What Have You Been Watching: Camp Dread Danielle Harris and Eric Roberts lead the cast for Harrison Smith's slasher film, Camp Dread. Doc steps in with this week's What Have You Been Watching segment to review the film trying to convince Santos he needs to give it a try if not for Roberts deliriously campy delivery then for the twist ending.

Looking at the carnage of blood, flesh and bones scattered on the gore-scarred ice, Will concludes "It's not an animal. It's a man who wants to be an animal." Episode 9 for NBC's hit television show Hannibal skirts the supernatural with a man who becomes a beast in Shiizakana. The show dances with the slasher formula with gruesome gory results that have Thomas, Dave, Doc and special guest Christopher G. Moore rabid out this week's visual treats.

HORROR NEWS TV HANNIBAL FAN PODCASTEpisode 9 – ShiizakanaSubscribe – iTunes – Facebook

The coolest thing about episode 9 is Will turning the tables on Hannibal proving he is indeed master fisherman, bating and nearly hooking Dr. Lector. But don't be fooled, Hannibal has a few more tricks up his sleeve quickly stepping in to coach the killer-of-the-week to his next move - attacking Will Graham. Let's just say "Even Steven" and cut to the chase!

NBC's HANNIBAL trades in subtlety for bright red blood and gore this week as the dialog takes a minor pinch according to Thomas and guest co-host, director Christopher G. Moore. Regardless, we are all treated to another marvelous, thrilling and engaging episode as we inch closer to that dramatic confrontation between Hannibal and Jack Crawford heavily hinted at during this season's opening shots. The anticipation is a killer.

The Raid 2 (2014) Rama (Iko Uwais) returns to kick serious ass with Gareth Evans' action thriller The Raid 2. The action and thrills are breathtaking with neck breaking speed and agility. It is astounding to watch. Brian Salisbury, from Oneofus.net and Film School Rejects, joins the grue-crew to discuss the pacing, the plot and the characters in depth and detail. Everyone loves Hammer Girl and try to figure out if the film has more in common with Kill Bill or Bruce Lee's Game of Death.

Horror News of the Week for 04/21/2014 Dave Dreher shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with more Godzilla news and footage from Wonder Con. Dave has the hots for the new Santanico Pandemonium from El Rey's hit television show From Dusk Til Dawn. The next genre entry from Bluhouse, Jessabelle, get its poster, stills and trailer. Dave is impressed by the trailer for the final season of HBO's True Blood. And, he is equally impressed with the the line of Jason Voorhees Horror Buddies from Horror Decor.

What Have You Been Watching: Game of Thrones Red Weddings, Purple Weddings and Ned Stark top the discussion about Game of Thrones asThomas and Doc ramble and recap the first three seasons. Meanwhile, Santos, a bit lost, wonders when Billy Idol is going to appear singing White Wedding. Sigh. Dragons, betrayals, death, White Walkers and nudity all make their way into the extended GoT rap. Wow!

"How do you catch a fish that is no longer hungry?" Jack inquires of Will as episode 8 opens on the pair fishing on a frozen lake. "You make him come to you" Will explains "and I'm a good fisherman."

Will is a free man and back under the care of the good doctor but who is analyzing who in this cat and mouse game of “who knows what about whom”. Dr. Bloom and Dr. Lecter continue their “unholy union” and it’s a not a good episode to be a horse.

In easily the most visceral and disturbing episode yet HANNIBAL raises the bar and the gore level for network horror television. Ride along with Doc and Dave as they breakdown this weeks “must see” episode.

In many cases, working on an independent film requires its creators to wear many hats. It is often a necessity of time, money and creative control to tackle as many roles as possible to get these projects completed reliably, quickly and on time. As the creative force behind White Lotus Productions, Lou Simon finds herself steering the ship as writer, director, producer, editor, anything and everything that she is called upon to do. The results are phenomenal as proven by her recent promising new entry into slasher films, HazMat.

Oculus (2014) While Doc and Dave agree that Mike Flanagan's chiller Oculus works as a great introductory horror film for non-horror fans, or a great "date movie," Santos and Thomas are not as supportive. The review heats up as the two sides discuss the film's successes and failures. An irritated Santos wants nothing to do with it; however, Dave shares he and his wife enjoyed the film greatly - his wife, who rarely likes horror films, wants to see it again. The film is creepy, full of atmosphere with terrific performances from its cast providing the film with a captivating set up but a divisive conclusion. The film is garnering strong reviews outside of HNR as it comes in at number 3 in the weekend box office, grossing $12 million in the U.S.

Top 5 Killer Inanimate Objects in Horror FilmsJumping off the haunted mirror in Oculus, Thomas leaps in to collect his top 5 killer inanimate objects in horror films:

• House (1977)
• Rubber (2010)
• Christine (1983)
• Death Bed: The Bed That Eats People (1977)
• Maximum Overdrive (1986)

Horror News of the Week for 04/14/2014 Dave Dreher shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with Doc's request to check out the "Muto" roar of the opposing kaiju from Godzilla (2014). Thomas is curious about the rumors that Johnny Depp may be secretly starring in Kevin Smith's horror opus, Tusk (2015). Dave is horrified with the sudden and maddening closure of FearNet by Comcast. Boo. Hiss. The documentary Never Sleep Again is getting a book treatment. And Netflix announces the second season of Eli Roth's Hemlock Grove.
