Dread Media

Kick off Apocalyptic August with us as we're all about post-apocalyptic bloodshed. First, though, Desmond gives a Dread Media Top 5 on Unconventional Apocalypse Films. Then Darryll joins him for a review of the Australian zombie apocalypse film Wyrmwood. Rich the Monster Movie Kid takes us on a trip down Damnation Alley. Finally, Desmond pays tribute to the late Rowdy Roddy Piper in his review of the bonkers mutant frog apocalypse film Hell Comes to Frogtown. Recorded music might not stick around after the big one, so let's go all out while we can: "War of the Zombies" by Creepersin, "Wormwood" by Michale Graves, "Light the Sky on Fire" by Jefferson Starship, "Pure Massacre" by Silverchair, and "Zombie Apocalypse" by Kirby Krackle.

It's Hittites, Satanists, and Pagans (oh my!) this week as Dread Media once again takes on the theme of cults.

And, finally, in tribute once again to Christopher Lee and what many consider to be his finest role: The Wicker Man. Don't forget to enjoy some culty hymns: "Come Join Us" by Bad Religion, "Make Yourself" by Incubus, "Just Another Victim" by Helmet and House of Pain, "Corn Rigs" by Paul Giovanni, and "Cult" by Evile.

This week, Dread Media takes a look at a selection of anthology films. Some good, most bad, you'll have to figure it out. First up, Desmond and Darryll sit down for Darryll's birthday to take in a train movie. What could possibly go wrong? Night Train to Terror. That's what. Then, continuing his tribute to Christopher Lee, Rich the Monster Movie Kid reviews Dr. Terror's House of Horrors. Finally, you were probably unaware that Creepshow 3 existed. Devil Dinosaur Jr. is here to show you why you're better off that way. There's a wide variety of songs as well: "Midnight Train" by Ghoultown, "Nightrain" by Guns N' Roses, "Angel of Death" by Slayer, "My Girlfriend's a Robot" by The Hanson Brothers, and "Everybody but You" by Joe Turano.

This week we look at families in supernatural peril as Desmond and Darryll deliver a review of Poltergeist like none you've ever heard.
