Welcome to SCREAM DREAMS - The Nightmares That Shaped Us! This is the show that delves into our most vivid dreams and nightmares, and how they affect our lives and work.

Show hosts are Catherine Corcoran (Terrifier, Return to Nuke 'Em High), James A Janisse (Kill Count, Dead Meat Podcast) and Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator, Suitable Flesh).

Episode 10 live premieres on Wednesday 1/17 at 7:15 AM PST / 10.15 AM EST. We hope to see you then for our LIVE CHAT - and please don’t forget to Like, Subscribe and Comment.

In this episode, we debate whether the Scream Dreams studio is kind of yonic – and what yonic means! Michael talks about his Troma connections, working with Peaches Christ on his Midnight Mass show, the queer appeal of Disney villains and Dracula’s lesbian origins, cult movies and Rocky Horror, advice for making a first feature, and the secret of getting ‘camp’ right.

For this week’s Side Barb, it’s another mad-lib written by Catherine – this one is very witchy!

We really welcome your Feedback - please let us know what you think of the show so far in the comments, suggest any fun nightmare games we might play, as well as future guests you’d like to see on the show!
