WHAT'S IN THE PODCAST

For Black History Month it seems right to pay tribute to one of the trailblazers of Black Horror by saluting the great Duane Jones and the film in which his casting completely changed the way a low budget grindhouse horror film was perceived in the history of horror for decades to come. It's George A. Romero's Classic "Night of the Living Dead."

We conclude Giallo-ary with the director who has arguably made Italian Horror a vital chapter in horror. Dario Argento, and today we spotlight one of his most celebrated Giallo DEEP RED

Giallo-ary continues and this time we delve into this steamy sinful offering from the black sheep of the Italian Masters, Sergio Martino. Today we discuss his gorgeous, dreamlike exploration of a woman whose dalliance with desire could lead to madness and murder. This is THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH.

Giallo-ary continues, and this week we are saluting the film (and the director) that many have credited for creating the essential traits that have since become synonymous with the giallo subgenre. It's all Drugs, Blackmail, and Murder to go with the BLOOD AND BLACK LACE

It's a new year and we're kicking it off with some Italian. Welcome to GIALLO-ary our monthlong salute to the Italian Giallo subgenre and to start we're saluting Lucio Fulci's highly celebrated and equally controversial masterpiece "Don't Torture a Duckling."

2025 was a crappy year, but when it comes to horror? 2025 gave us Killer aunts, Killer Pennies, and Killer Wind-Up Toy Monkeys and those are just drops in the ocean of the wild helpings of horror this year. But which titles shined this year? Join Matt Konopka and I as we award the best of horror in a horrible year.

After a garbage year there is nothing more cathartic than watching Santa slaughter a ton of horrible people and fortunately Mike P. Nelson's reimagining of "Silent Night Deadly Night" delivers in abundance.

You know the rules, you know the season, you know the sequel, and we are here to talk about not just the maniacally festive creature feature horror comedy classic, but the absolutely unhinged sequel that makes you wonder "why doesn't Gizmo wear a slicker when he goes out?

Absolutely ignored upon release, this recently recovered holiday horror gem found new life thanks to a beloved sleazy filmmaker and a holiday Last Drive-In showing on Shudder. Now we celebrate Lewis Jackson's grim, yet poignant slasher psychodrama. That's right... It's CHRISTMAS EVIL

Leave it to Joe Begos to make a Christmas slasher that salutes the bar walkers, the tokers, the metalheads and those whose Christmases are less families and turkeys, and more booze, nachos... and killer robot Santas.
