Wolfamania continues with our look into the 2nd entry into the 1981 werewolf movie craze with a quite different take on that myhthology as we watch WOLFEN directed by Michael Wadleigh. We'll discuss how this pure horror meets crime drama hybrid packs a unique punch that sets it apart from its contemporaries, part of which is its embarassment of character-actor riches including the likes of Edward James Almos, Tom Newnan, Gregory Hines and Albert Finney.  

 Welcome to the landmark 12th season of The Seeking Human Victims podcast. This is a "Spin off" season, going back to our wildly popular "Universal Monsters" season where the modern movie monster template was created and will be an annual feature here on the show.  Last year we looked at the children of "Creature From The Black Lagoon" with Season 7 - Aquatic Horror Beach Party, but now things are getting hairy! It's WOLFAMANIA brother, and the first begotten son of Lon Chaney Jr is the Werewolf craze of 1981 as we revisit the "Piranha" team of director Joe Dante and writer John Sayles for what is still regarded as one of if not the best werewolf films of all time....1981's THE HOWLING!Plus we're always bringing the spooky jams....our musical guest this week all the way from Sweden are death metal ass-kickers RIBSPREADER with their track "The Bone Church" off the new comp "Death Metal Power From Beyond" out now from Horror Pain Gore Death Productions.  (Ribspreader appears courtesy horrorpaingoredeath.com )

 We're back with another Executive Producer sponsored episode. Big shout out to EP Casey Oliver for his valuable support. This week we delve into the often under appreciated world of Blacksploitation horror for a 1973 sequel that features William Marshall and Pam Grier with incredible performances. It's Voodoo vs Vampires in SCREAM BLACULA SCREAM.  Plus musical guest Ghoulhouse performs their song "Shrieks Of Fright" courtesy of HorrorPainGoreDeath.com

 Sponsored by our Executive Producer Tier, here is maybe the greatest SHV bonus episode ever recorded. For EP Casey Oliver, here is our tale of the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger action classic, PREDATOR. From the grueling shooting conditions to a cast full of charismatic meat heads constantly ribbing each other, this is definitley one where the behind the scenes stories live up to the films outrageous rep. Exclusive to EP Patrons until Monday.  Also includes musical guest Blasphemous Creation with the song "Vindication Scourge" courtesy of HorrorPainGoreDeath.com

In celebration of our upcoming season 12 - Wolfamania, here's a special re-release from our archives over at Patreon.com/OGScare! Even a man who is pure of heart and says his prayers by night, can enjoy our podcast when wolfsbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright. Or something like that. Our journey into Universal Monsters moves into the next decade as we meet the obvious heir apparent to be the face of this decade, Lon Chaney, Jr. His rise to this role wasn't exactly what you'd imagine when you normally think of hollywood nepotism, though and we'll learn the fascinating story of how he came to eclipse the shade of his legendary father even if he didn't realise he had done so.  We also learn how nothing you thought you knew about Werewolf lore is true and most all of it comes from writer Curt Siodmak and this film . Don't get bitten! Watch out for pentagrams magically appearing on your hand! And be sure to tune into this episode.  Also we'll feature special musical guest "Poltergeist" of the HorrorCore Rap world and his song "Tall Man."

 The season finale of the David Cronenberg Terror Timeline is here! We wrap things up with this bizarre tale of identical twin OBGYN doctors that was based on a real life true crime story with Jeremy Irons pulling double duty as both doctors. Plus our musical guest courtesy of horrorpaingoredeath.com this week is "Ghoulhouse" with the song "Maze Of Human Bones."

The penultimate episode of the David Cronenberg Terror Timeline is here! We're looking at how two up and coming stars delivered life changing performances as this became known as the film that launched Geena Davis & Jeff Goldblum to the next level.  We'll talk about how Cronenberg mixes his unique arthouse style with a big budget studio film to fascinating results and of course the award winning special effects by Chris Walas. All that plus musical guest "Wolves Attack!!" with the song "Heavy Breathing", (courtesy horrorpaingoredeath.com) Don't miss it!

 This week we're both continuing the story of David Cronenberg and covering our 2nd Stephen King adaptation (there is another one coming next season btw.) We're looking at Christopher Walken as he chews the scenery and spits it out in 1983's The Dead Zone. 

 Better late than never! The SHV crew is back, injured Dan and all, with a brand new chapter of the David Cronenberg Terror Timeline as we look at a film that goes way out there, 1983's conspiracy filled, hallucinatory nightmare where porno snuff films may or may not be real, Videodrome starring Debby Harry, James Woods & more. 

 This week we celebrate American Independence Day by watching a Canadian film about psychic warfare. Ok, but at least there are explosions. Exploding heads as a matter of fact! That's right, this week on the David Cronenberg Terror Timeline we're talking 1981's Scanners.
