Dread Media

Boobs, blood, and black gloves here! Get yer boobs, blood, and black gloves! Yellow Christmas begins as Dread Media dedicates the entire month of December to the notoriously sleazy, mean-spirited, and often nonsensical genre of Italian whodunnits: Giallo. This first week, a sampler of what the genre has to offer: Desmond and Darryll take on Lucio Fulci's classic Don't Torture a Duckling, Devil Dinosaur Jr. reviews Antonio Bido's grim The Bloodstained Shadow, and Rich the Monster Movie Kid dips his toes into the genre with a look at Emilio Miraglia's The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave. There's some tunes, as well: "I Kill Children" by Dead Kennedys, "Strangled with a Halo" by Pig Destroyer, "Bloodstains" by Agent Orange, "Living Dead Girl" by Rob Zombie, and "Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart" by Stone Temple Pilots. Don't forget to enter this month's killer giveaway. RIP Scott Weiland. Send feedback to: [email protected], or 206.278.5257. Follow @DevilDinosaurJr and @dreadmedia on Twitter!

We are ushering November into nothingness as Desmond has a second interview with author Nicole Cushing. The two talk about Thomas Ligotti, blurbs, philosophy, extreme horror, and weirdos in relation to her two new releases Mr. Suicide and The Mirrors. Rich the Monster Movie Kid swings by to cover the obscure HBO skin flick / thriller Tattoo. Then Desmond goes solo on the indie anthology film The Horror Network, and the most insane Christmas movie you'll ever see: 12 Disasters. And of course, music: "Suicide Messiah" by Black Label Society, "Mirrors" by Blue Oyster Cult, "Feel So Numb" by Rob Zombie, "Impending Disaster" by Devil Driver, and "TNA (The Nihilistic Army)" by Turbonegro.

Don't tell anybody because this week Dread Media commits podcasting crimes. First, Desmond and Darryll wreck a perfectly good camping trip in their review of Deliverance. Then Duane joins Desmond for some baseball bat-related shenanigans in their review of Cold in July. Then Desmond steals a police cruiser and goes looking for a lost girl in his solo reviews of Cop Car and Skin Traffik. Turn these tunes up! It might not be against the law, but I'm sure it will at least be a bylaw infraction: "Dueling Banjos" by Eric Weissberg, "Deliverance" by Corrosion of Conformity, "20 Miles to Texas, 25 to Hell" by Powerman 5000, "Looking for Blood" by The Donnas, and "White on White Crime" by Agoraphobic Nosebleed.

It's been a long, strange trip, but Chris and Desmond have finally gotten together to discuss the third and final season of the Netflix Series Hemlock Grove. How does it fare compared to the other two? Did their favorite character get more screen time? Who in the blue Hell is stoner Luke Wilson? You'll have to listen to find out. Desmond goes solo to close out the show with a review of Last Shift. Songs include: "Gypsy" by Mercyful Fate, "Victory" by Bad Religion, "Ritual Blast" by Occultist, and "Skin-Tight Boogie" by Eagles of Death Metal.

Then Duane joins Desmond to review the murdered witch back for revenge in Antonio Margheriti's The Long Hair of Death. Then Desmond goes solo in a review of I Spit on Your Grave: Vengeance is Mine. Tunes included: "Nuns Have No Fun" by Mercyful Fate, "New York's Alright (If You Like Saxophones)" by Fear, "The Witch is Burning" by Doublestone, "Forced Gender Reassignment" by Cattle Decapitation, and "I Spit on Your Grave" by Ghoultown.

This week, it's a cavalcade of varied horror presentations leading up to Halloween! First up, Argentinian child vampires go under the microscope as Duane and Desmond review Children of the Night. Devil Dinosaur Jr. gets to the bottom of found footage black comedy / thriller Creep. Rich the Monster Movie Kid rounds off the audio end of his month-long tribute to Bela Lugosi in his review of Voodoo Man.

This week, Dread Media presents its (at least) annual conversation with our friend, filmmaker, writer, and film festival runner Gregory Lamberson. The fellas talk about Killer Rack on the festival circuit, Greg's first standalone horror novel Black Creek, the Buffalo Dreams Film Festival line-up, and the cult resurgence of Greg's 1988 classic Slime City. Rich the Monster Movie Kid comes on back to discuss this week's Bela Lugosi film in a review of The Devil Bat. And of course, there's music: "Working Class Hero" by Screaming Trees, "Killer Rack Title" by Armand Petri and Joe Rozier, "Diary of a Madman" by Ozzy Osbourne, and "Mission Creep" by Zombi.

This week it's another grab-bag. Bear the awful audio as Chris and Desmond gush over Jake Gyllenhaal's masterful performance in Nightcrawler; thrill at Rich the Monster Movie Kid's discussion of the work of Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff in his review of The Invisible Ray; swallow your soul for Devil Dinosaur Jr.'s Stay Scary of the Evil Dead remake; and try to guess which two of these three films, which Desmond solo-reviews, are awful: A Plague So Pleasant, Old 37, and Queen Crab. There're tunes, as well: "Negative Creep" by Machine Head, "Nightcrawler" by Judas Priest, "Radioactive" by The Firm, "Evil Never Dies" by Overkill, "March of the Crabs" by Propagandhi, and "Fun House" by The Stooges.

This week on Dread Media, Desmond and Darryll talk about a lot of stuff in their long and drunken rambling review of Suburban Gothic. They even manage to talk about the film itself!

All that and songs, too: "Suburban Vampire" by The Browns, "Punk Rock Girl" by The Dead Milkmen, "Wasting Away" by The Brian Jonestown Massacre, "No Spill Blood" by Oingo Boingo, "Poltergeist" by Devin Townsend Project, and "Only the Haunted" by Dog Fashion Disco.
