Dread Media

This week there's a supernatural motorcycle bonanza. First up, Desmond and Duane review the Spanish horror comedy featuring a sexy witch who rides a motorbike: Witching & Bitching. Then, after far too long of a hiatus, the Commonwealth Crew is back as Ian joins Desmond to take a look at the misguided 2007 pre-Marvel Studios horror comic book movie, Ghost Rider. Then, of course, there are tunes: "Maiden, Mother & Crone" by The Sword, "Goddess" by Pentagram, "Ghost Rider in the Sky" by Spiderbait, and "Ghost Rider" by Henry Rollins.

This week, Desmond and Duane dig into the new horror film Bethany, so much that they had to record a separate spoiler section of their review for the very end of the episode. So stay tuned for that. Then, Devil Dinosaur Jr. walks alone in a Stay Scary of Drifter. Then there's music: "Batman Theme" by Al Hirt, "Psychic Twin" by Gruesome, "Love Won't Desert Us" by Push Kings, and "The Story of Batman" by Adam West. RIP Adam West.

This week, Desmond and Darryll look in-depth at a film so bad it nearly wrecked them: Don't Go in the Woods... Alone! Then Desmond goes solo, discussing some new comics that have come out in recent months: The Dregs from Black Mask Comics, Savage Things from DC / Vertigo, Darkness Visible from IDW, and the RL Stine-written Man-Thing from Marvel. Before I list the tunes, make note of our new address: [email protected]. Tunes: "I Don't Wanna Go" by The Donnas, "Don't Go in the Woods Alone" by H Kingsley Thurber, "Dregs" by Killing Joke, and "Kiss of Death" by Mutoid Man.

This week, the show that almost wasn't is a really good one. So be thankful that it is. Not "is good," just plain is. Anyway, two films of similar tone and theme are discussed. Desmond and Duane's disagree on things in their review of the Netflix production (and epically titled): I Am the Pretty Thing that Lives in the House. Then, Rich the Monster Movie Kid dives into another slow-burn film dealing with a woman on her own in Sweet, Sweet Lonely Girl. Shorter episode, longer titles. It's a thing. Look it up! Also, this episode features the most eclectic mix of music that has perhaps ever been on the show: "Make Me Wanna Die" by The Pretty Reckless, "Baby, Let's Play House" by Buddy Holly, "Lonely Girl" by Lion, and "Strange Little Girls" by Tori Amos.

This week, we begin the show with a giveaway and a tribute to a rockstar. Then Megan and our Dutch daughter joins me for a review of Jordan Peele's debut film Get Out. I mean, you need to know what three white people on a podcast have to think about that one, right? Also, Rich the Monster Movie Kid reviews The Devil's Candy. Finally, I go solo on a review of Walerian Borowczyk's arthouse sleazefest, The Beast. Also, tunes: "Get the Fuck Outta Dodge" by Public Enemy, "Hypnotize" by System of A Down, "The Devil in I" by Slipknot, "The Beast and the Harlot" by Avenged Sevenfold, and "4th of July" by Soundgarden.

This week, Dread Media wants you to be complicit. First off, Desmond interviews handsome author of crime and horror noir Ed Kurtz about his process, why he doesn't like discussing genre (even though I mention it in the show notes), and upcoming adaptations of his work. Then, Duane joins Desmond for a review of the Scandinavian comedic crime film In Order of Disappearance. There are also some tunes: "Give the Mule What He Wants" by Queens of the Stone Age; "Bleeder" by Mutoid Man; "It Snows In Hell" by Lordi; and "The World's Gone Mad" by Handsome Boy Modelling School featuring Del the Funky Homosapien, Barrington Levy, and Alex Kapranos.

It's women in peril / women in captivity week on Dread media. First up, the softcore housewife porn of 50 Shades of Grey meets Eli Roth in Desmond and Duane's review of Deadly Virtues: Love.Honour.Obey. Then Desmond goes solo on two Jess Franco women-in-prison films: Blue Undergrounds three-disc unrated director's cut of 99 Women, and Full Moon Entertainment's Women in Cellblock 9. Finally, Desmond reviews a comic book, this time an aging actress's emptiness at her lack of fame is filled with something sinister in the Image Comics release Glitterbomb: Red Carpet. Of course, there are songs: "Pretty Tied Up" by Guns N' Roses, "Pain of Pleasure / Virtues of Vice" by Vio-Lence, "Island of Domination" by Judas Priest, "Fuck You (I'm Famous)" by Shooter Jennings, and "The Prisoner" by Suicidal Tendencies.

This week, Desmond and Duane highlight two under-appreciated horror gems form the early 1980s. First up, a farmer needs a special ingredient for his roadside fritters in Motel Hell. Then, a man works through his issues with the opposite sex in Pieces. Songs: "Lord, Don't Let Me Die in a Cheap Motel" by Banjo & Sullivan, "Motel Hell" and "1000 Cries Has the Night" by The Browns, and "Hell's Motel" by MD.45.

This week, Dread Media gets topical. First off, Brian Yuzna's 1989 brilliant and gooey satire of the ruling class is never more relevant than it is today in Desmond and Darryll's review of Society. Then, women may often be viewed as sexual playthings by many men, but in Desmond and Duane's review of the Swiss folk horror film Sennentuntschi, we see that they are not to be toyed with. Fun fact about each of today's songs: each track played is the fourth track on its respective album, except for one which is an unreleased cover track. Enjoy: "Control" by Biohazard, "Society" by Pennywise, "Ford Mustang" by Mike Patton, and "The Evil that Men Do" by Iron Maiden. Send feedback to: [email protected], or 206.278.5257.

This week, the jobs are hellish on Dread Media. First off, Adam and Jeff join Desmond to see how an Egyptologist's Take Your Daughter to Work Day goes horribly wrong in Lucio Fulci's Manhattan Baby. Then, if there's a better example of corporations not caring about their employees' welfare, it's probably an example from reality and not the new horror film in Rich the Monster Movie Kid's review of The Belko Experiment. Then Desmond goes solo, outlining how soldiers have to accept orders no matter how lascivious, as two brilliant women are made to go undercover as whores for the SS in Love Camp 7 and a librarian has to take the law into her own hands in The Creeps. Some songs to make your work day better: "Egypt" by Mercyful Fate; "Baby Sequenza 1" Fabio Frizzi; "California Dreamin' (Rock Version)" by Gilberto Cerezo, Tyler Bates, Dave Lombardo, and Rani Sharone; "The Creeps" by The Hellacopters; and "Take this Job and Shove It" by Dead Kennedys.
