This week we round our our Summer Fun Series with Jaws 4 aka THE REVENGE. For the 1987 entry into the Jaws franchise, we change directors and apparently ignore the events of Jaws 3.  We catch up with the Brodys for what is apparently, the climax of the Jaws saga.

We all need a break from the brutal summer, so this week we take a trip to the Cold North Country to talk about The Grey. Based on “Ghost Walker” by Ian MacKenzie Jeffers, Joe Carnahan delivers a man-against-nature survival thriller with a cast let by veteran hardass Liam Neeson.

The summer is dragging on and we’re continuing our Jaws series.  This week we dive into Jaws 3 and the question remains: did we really need another sequel?

Outro: “American Rampage”– Hammerhead

This week, we cover THE SHROUDS, the new film by David Cronenberg, a giant in the film world. Vincent Cassel leads a small cast featuring Guy Pearce and Diane Kruger into a darkly lit world or grief and paranoia.

Outro: “3”–  Der Blutharsch

The dog days of summer are upon us so we figured that we’d give you another episode about a shark terrorizing helpless swimmers at the sleepy New England town of Amity.  Directoe Jeannot Szwarc picks up the storyline of Spielberg’s classic with the aptly titled JAWS 2. Listen in to what the Necromaniacs think of the further adventures of a killer shark and Police Chief Brody.

The sun is out and temperatures are rising. Grab your beach towels, bathing suits and fill up the cooler because it’s time for a summer shark attack!  This week, we dive into the classic JAWS, the 1975 blockbuster directed by the legendary Steven Spielberg.

Apologies for getting this out a bit late today, but at least in the Western Hemisphere it’s still NECRO THURSDAY. We wrap up our “28” series with the newest entry 28 Years Later this week.  The original team of Alex Garland and Danny Boyle are reunited to deliver a new chapter in UK post-apocalyptic saga set in the near future.

We continue our runup to the release of 28 Years Later, with 28 Weeks Later the 2007 sequel that expands the world developed in the first movie. This time around Danny Boyle and Alex Garland were absent from the production team leaving the screenplay to be developed by committee and the mantle of director landing with Juan Carlos Fresnadillo.

As a run up to the release of 28 Years Later, we will be going back to the beginning of the nightmare world created by Alex Garland and Danny Boyle.  This week, we discuss 28 Days Later, the post-apocalyptic, infected horror film that updated the zombie folklore started by George Romero in the late 60’s and continued by Lucio Fulci in the 90’s.
