Dread Media

Dread Media celebrates Easter Weekend the only way they know how: sacrilegiously! First up, it took the Gospel of Luke and Desmond to connect a black comedy about a resurrected killer clown to Jesus in their review of Stitches. Then, something goes horribly wrong when Devil Dinosaur Jr. tries to learn the stations of the cross and accidentally comes across a case of Stigmata. Now, turn to the hymnal and sing along to the following: "Cruci-Fiction in Space" by Marilyn Manson, "Three for Flinching (Revenge of the Porno Clowns)" by The Dillinger Escape Plan, "Stigmata" by Ministry, and "Ashes of Resurrection" by Strychnia. Amen. Send feedback to: [email protected], or 206.203.1213. Follow @dreadmedia on Twitter! Join the Facebook group! Visit www.stayscary.wordpress.com. Donate at www.dreadmedia.com.

It's a grab bag of gory goodness this week as Desmond, Adam, Jeff, and new co-host Brittney take a look at the British horror / sci-fi film Storage 24. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. delves into the insanity that is Jean Rollin's Demoniacs in a brand new Stay Scary. Then, Darryll's back once again as he joins us to discuss the weird Romero-homage film Mimesis. The following tunes get a spin as well: "Horror Show" by Powerman 5000, "Hangar 18" by Megadeth, "Shipwrecked" by Alestorm, "Night of the Loving Dead" by Lordi, and "Who Will Help Me Bake This Bread?" by Propagandhi.

In an episode dedicated solely to the year 1932, Desmond is so blown away by the listeners' generosity that he bursts into song before getting into the bulk of the show. Up next, Chris joins us for a review of James Whale's Old Dark House. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. gives us a Stay Scary segment on The Ghoul. (Technically it was released in 1933, but who's counting?) Then Adam, Jeff, and Desmond share laughs and adoration over the new Blu-ray release of the Bela Lugosi-vehicle White Zombie. There's songs too! "Horror" by Voivod, "Crazy" by Mushroomhead, "Ghouls Night Out" by Goldfinger, "Bela Lugosi's Dead" by Nouvelle Vague, and "Hallowed Be Thy Name" by Iron Maiden. RIP Clive Burr.

Just to make sure things don't get boring, this week's theme is slightly specific: foreign horror / sci-fi films! First up, Adam joins Desmond for a review of the Korean futuristic anthology film Doomsday Book. Then Duane and Desmond take a look at the morose Swiss space travel film Cargo. Then Desmond goes solo on the latest Eclipse Series box set from Criterion called When Horror Came to Shochiku, which contains the following obscure Japanese horror / sci-fi flicks: The X From Outer Space; Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell; The Living Skeleton; and Genocide. There's some science fictiony tunes to check out as well: "Let the End Begin" by Ancient VVisdom, "Don't Open 'Til Doomsday" by The Misfits, "Into the Void" by Nine Inch Nails, "Skeletons of Society" by Hellsongs, and "Science Gone Too Far" by The 69 Eyes.

Two guys whose voices you'll recognize sit around laughing at the titles of pornos and making fun of music videos. A healthy appreciation for the female form. Copyright laws possibly being broken? Is this an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head? Nope! The Commonwealth Crew is back in Women in Horror Month to pay their respects to one of the greatest female horror comics characters in their coverage of Jim Wynorski's well-intentioned but indescribably inadequate comic book horror film Vampirella. Good lord! There are no words. Follow @dreadmedia and @MuseumWalkerIan on Twitter. Join the Facebook group!

In a double shot of Stay Scary, Devil Dinosaur Jr. covers the novella and film version of The Woman by Jack Ketchum and Lucky McKee.
