Dread Media

Come with us this week on a road trip to the new vacation home. I know it looks rough, but don't worry. It's just in need of a little love. Perhaps some paint, some tightening of the screws, and the exorcising of the demonic spirit that haunts the basement would really spruce the place up! This week we pay tribute to the classic horror trope of cabins in the woods by Desmond and Jeff first reviewing last year's meta-narrative Cabin in the Woods. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. gives us the real estate particulars on The Cottage. Finally, Desmond goes it alone by inspecting the country home in Axed. Hope you packed a lunch. Your Walkman is filled with the following songs that are sure to allow some freakish monstrosity the chance to sneak up on a disgruntled teenager: "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr" by Trivium, "Cabin in the Woods" by the Original Cast of Evil Dead: The Musical, "Life of Crime" by The Weirdos, "Man on the Edge" by Iron Maiden, and "Solitude" by Black Sabbath!

Drop the jerry can, light a cigarette, and throw it behind you as you walk away from boredom listening to this action-packed episode of Dread Media!

Desmond returns to go solo on a documentary that isn't an action film, but will probably have your heart pounding more than any other: The Imposter. There's also tunes from a bunch of Dread Media's favorite bands: "Gimme Some Action" by Fear, "All Good Soldiers" by Bad Religion, "I Am the Law" by Anthrax, "Stripsearch" by Faith No More, and "Fight to Kill" by Holy Grail.
