Underworld

Endings, whether for a TV series or a movie franchise, often leave both the audience and the creators/actors feeling unsatisfied. It's a heavy burden to "get it right," and we've seen the impact a true ending can have on a series. True fans never want something they love to end, even if they're bombarded with subpar sequels. A continuation may mean an endless stream of content, but it can also dilute the very essence that made us fall in love with the series in the first place. Not many series can boast having four movies in total in their continuity, let alone two. Personally, I believe a quadriology, or a four-part series, is often the ideal number to fully explore the story of a concept, regardless of the genre.

Jason has undoubtedly become a cornerstone for slasher films, and while he wasn't the first, he has certainly made his mark, with his teleporting, zombie-like presence. In our future episodes, we won't overlook the myriad of other sequels to come, but for now, we're bidding farewell to the original story being told. Fortunately, there are a few standalone movies to navigate through before we dive back into action with new and compelling protagonists facing even deadlier antagonists.

The choice to bring in Corey Feldman, an '80s child star, to seal the "Final Chapter" seemed obvious, but I can't help feeling conflicted about it. It's great to see him in yet another successful horror movie, but it also feels like a forced entry. If the plan wasn't to explore Tommy Jarvis as the new face of Friday the 13th, then why opt for a higher-level talent for the role? Throughout the film, Feldman's character didn't have much significance until the very end fight scene, and even then, the actions taken felt rather odd and puzzling.

I must admit, I'm quite disappointed with the choices made in "The Final Chapter," and more than anything, I'm left feeling perplexed. The few teases of Feldman in future movies as a "continuation" appear to be a cop-out instead of taking a bold leap into uncharted territory within the Friday the 13th Universe. We've concluded the original quadriology, so shouldn't we celebrate with some classic skinny dipping or something along those lines? It's a bit of a letdown, to say the least.

Tonight's episode features a different tone to the series. Realistically, the series has a couple roller coaster rides of tones, it's primarily lighter when it comes to the scare factor. Trying to wow, and make the audience cringe at the sight of blood and gore. Each movie feels like it's trying to outdo the previous, most times succeeding. You'll get to hear Austin and I's viewpoint on the new set of characters, and how they stack up to the rest of the series. We've never felt like experts on horror, but we do pride ourselves in thinking of different routes the movies could have taken.

I've become accustomed to the cheesiness factor when I see anything 80's, with a few exceptions, and I do mean just a few. The 80's was so overpopulated with movies, The industry felt the more, the better. Hell, a lot more home movies were coming around, People using their hard earned money to capture their sometimes creepier ideas than you see in Hollywood. I could see how the aesthetic of woods horror is pretty similar to open ocean horror. Exploring the unknown, mostly. You'd think by now, the local police would have shut that campsite down, demolished anything in that merciless lake spot.

It's never too late for a sequel to something that spews out the green. The work ethic back then was insane, I still can't get over the fact of making these films nearly back to back with every entry. Nowadays, we have to wait years to get a sight of sequel. I'm a practical effects lover myself, it really shows the true creativity on all fronts of the crew. They have to modify and think a lot harder than someone clickity clackin away on a computer for effects. But hey, I get it, "Looks cooler". Jason is feeling like a friend to me by now, He's dispatching all the annoying teenagers in his land. Just merely chillin, trying to get by. Some of his kills felt so effortless, that he's just as annoyed as I am. The way he walks, the way his body talks murdering them. His actions are ooze with so much hilarity, that the giggle-fest comes in effect, And it "kills" me when he kills them. Sorry, the corny nature is contagious.

Tonight's episode is filled with reminiscence and nostalgia for both Austin, and I. We have a lot of goofy stories to discuss in the upcoming episodes. As far as this one goes, we discuss the time I "Saved" him from hypothermia, and brought us closer together. Horror movies for the both of us has been a perfect escape from the daunting reality of mortality. Something about watching this genre, that's filled with death more times than not, has somehow made us not as scared about the end.

The countless times we've shot "milk" out of our noses from laughing so hard watching horrible horror movies, is more than I can count. Something about the cheesy nature of the way someone bites the dust, makes the movie all more pleasing for us. I think the Friday the 13th Series is something beautiful. It's primarily the same concept as the original (aside to Mother Vorhees being the culprit.) Yet each one feels like a standalone, if you take away the annoying flashbacks. Ok, maybe they aren't different at all, but the point is, well I don't know what the point is.

They're all easy to consume, aside to one movie, we won't mention until it's time. For most of us watching or listening, We all have spooky camping stories. Something that really struck our cerebral cortex's with imaginary Chronicles about the deep dark woods of whereverville, USA. Another thing our brains do, is conjure up menacing ways that we could be killed if we aren't vigilant enough(maybe that's just me).

I was fascinated by the ramp up in kills for the second one. To be fair, we do have a larger "human" dispatching others like leftovers in the garbage. I for one, was pleased with this sequel, but will my co-host agree with said statement? Or will the two feeble minds you're listening too, make zero sense throughout the entirety of this podcast? That's a given, really.

Hello and welcome to the "re-work" of DrekculasUnderworld. The use of quotations is needed because, well, I'ts

still filled with my ranting and harsh criticism towards characters and the world they're in. Some additions you'll

see are "Underworld Awards" and an Underworld rating to wrap things up. I never claimed to be some expert in Horror,

I'm just a fan who likes to talk shit, for lack of better words. Another addition is having a Co-host joining me

along this new Journey. There isn't a set host at this time, but you'll be listening to my best friend of many

years, Austin. He's a lover of horror as well. He has lent his voice to my Anthology series

"Tales from the Underworld" (Currently working on the next season). I'm excited to bring you something fresh, as

am I.

The first series I wanted to start with was an easy decision on my part. Friday the 13th has been one of my favorite

slasher series of all time. The simplistic nature of a deranged mamas boy turned supernatural Zombie-ghost-thing

terrorizing everyone who enters Crystal Lake. Later on, he leaves the nest to test his hacking skills in the city,

and even in space! We've heard everything we need to know about this series. It's been covered on numerous

occasions, and I get why. There's something charming about it, The camp setting, the locals near the lake, and the

abundance of weapons he uses to dispatch his victims. Of course, we don't get that until the next films, but overall

I was surprised by the first film. My rewatch created a different feeling in me. Watching on a modern tv compared

to my old CRT tv created a sense of campiness that at first annoyed me, but then I fell in love with it. I went back

and watched it on my Box tv for old times' sake, and realized that the tinnitus-filled machine created an eerie atmosphere

that can't be recreated.

At first, Austin and I were apprehensive about covering this film while recording out at his property with a fire going,

but that just made this whole series feel that much better. The kills felt more personal in this film than any other

in the series, and that makes this one of the most unsettling of the series as well. We were pretty crucial in the

character's decisions, Too many moments in the film that made us upset. We voice that heavily in the Awards for

certain characters we disliked. Some unexpected character is also chosen as Austin's favorite which is a little

controversial you'll see.

We hope you enjoy the re-work of it, and be sure to send me some suggestions for any on-off movies I could cover while

covering this series throughout the year! Also, if anyone is interested in being on my scripted anthology series, Please reach out to me at my socials below. Thanks for stopping by, and as always stay spooked!

Many tales of “Santa Clause” roam amongst the world. The standard Santa is a man who employees tiny green clothed elves. They make millions of toys all year, so his rotund body can squeeze through a brick structure to deliver presents. I wonder if he can instill that level of commitment and accuracy to other delivery services.

Have you ever had nightmares about Christmas? You wake up, and Santa is tying you up in the bed, and instead of leaving presents he’s giving you the options for any last words before he takes your life? Maybe it’s not really Santa?

What about the stories of Ol’ Saint Nick involving something more sinister? Well, Listen along to this haunting tale of “Old Man Winter”

Traditions are the key for most people when it comes to feeling that “Joy” during the Christmas holidays, along with others. I’ve grown very fond of hearing peoples traditions that come along with their Christmas’s, some I’ve tried to incorporate in my own that sounded enticing.

Tonight we follow a spooky tale of decorations gone wrong, and how even inanimate objects can can feel left out if treated poorly. I can attest to feeling uneasy around certain objects my mother has brought out over the years. But this story, it’s a different situation for feeling uneasy.

We're in the midst of Christmas. You're stress-induced migraines most likely have already started. I could sit here and say it's not a huge ordeal. But, let's think about this. Retail stores have been affected by the online craze so much that retail stores have been exclusively having their own deals online only. Shopping in person is nearly a thing of the past with every year that passes. This advancement of technology has been a positive for people on a time crunch, and those who just don't want to leave their bubble. Have you ever thought about those times coming back? Deals that are so attractive that it brings out the animal in you? The craving of getting that product for half off? Would you sacrifice time with your family, children, and even your job? Would it be surprising if something catastrophic happens, and you mindlessly continue on the hunt for AA batteries? In tonight's episode, we follow a retail store striving to be the best brand, even if that means leaving a person behind.

As we all get up for Thanksgiving day. I hope it's filled with good times, laughter, and good food. In contrast, not everyone experiences the delights of grandma screaming at them for being too early, a burden in the kitchen, etc. You can count on loved ones to hug, kiss, and enjoy their presence for the holiday future.

In this episode we see a couple searching for a bit of spice in their lives. Angela is desperately searching for something to stoke the fading fire in her. Rick is your typical arrogant jerk who only seeks his own happiness. Angela discovers a family who reenacts online for a fair price. Upon their arrival, they discover something very odd about this family and their “traditions”.

Tales From the Underworld delivers stories involving terror, slapstick humor, and nonsensical content. All episodes are written, produced and directed by Drek, of EVProductions/DrekculasUnderworld. This episode follows three friends, a camera, and unsettling and evil child actor. Will the friends detect and defeat evil? Or will buffoonery reign supreme, and tear them apart.
