Dread Media

This week, Dread Media takes a weird side road in Feral February. Duane joins Desmond to discuss the werewolf-themed work of Ross Patterson (AKA St. James St. James), those being the historical action comedies FDR: American Badass and Helen Keller vs. Nightwolves. Then Rich the Monster Movie Kid steps in to give a review of (and the convoluted history behind) I Was a Teenage Werewolf. Of course, there are songs: "Game for Life" by MC Breed, "A Song for Helen" by Deacon, "Helen Keller" by The Erotics, "I Was a Teenage Werewolf" by The Cramps, and "12 Steps to Rock n' Roll" by The Young Werewolves.

This week we have a massive episode. First we pay tribute to a friend of the show, Mark Justice, author and host of the long-running Pod of Horror. Then Duane and Desmond figure out how babies are made with their review of Howling III: The Marsupials. Then Desmond tries to get the taste out of his mouth as he goes solo on Howling IV: The Original Nightmare, Howling V: The Rebirth, Howling VI: The Freaks, and The Howling: New Moon Rising. Then, Chris joins us to discuss the end of the franchise with a high school werewolf love story with an uncanny connection to Dread Media continuity: The Howling Reborn. And that's not all! Devil Dinosaur Jr. dives further into the Paul Naschy el Hombre Lobo filmography with The Werewolf Versus the Vampire Women, and Rich the Monster Movie Kid takes on The Undying Monster. There's tunes, too: "Endless Howl" by Barishi, "Wipe Your Tears Away" by Vitamin Z, "The Howling" by Within Temptation, "Bloodfeast" by The Misfits, "Animal" by Pearl Jam, and "Wolves of Chernobyl" by Munic

This week, some important things are discussed: Desmond and Darryll discuss whether or not your sister is a werewolf bitch as they review Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf. Rich the Monster Movie Kid wonders if you can show a werewolf bum on television in his review of the TV movie Moon of the Wolf. Finally, is The Wolfman so angry because he got bit by a yeti? Devil Dinosaur Jr. investigates in his Stay Scary of Paul Naschy in The Fury of he Wolfman. And while the descriptions above may or may not be true, the songs listed here do, in fact, get played this week: "Sacramental Sister" by Powerwolf, "Howling (Club Mix)" by Steve Parsons and Babel, "Bark at the Moon" by Ozzy Osbourne, "The Wolf is Loose" by Mastodon, and "The Howling Man" by Night Demon.

Gather your pack and howl at the moon as we kick off Feral February! This first episode in our month dedicated entirely to werewolves takes a look at some venerable, but perhaps not entirely well-known classics of the sub-genre. First off, Desmond and Darryll start what's going to be a comprehensive look at the most enduring werewolf franchise with 1981's The Howling. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. goes back two full decades to take a look at Hammer's The Curse of the Werewolf before Rich the Monster Movie Kid goes back even further to 1956's science-y werewolf feature The Werewolf. There's some howling tunes for you, as well: "Up the Wolves" by The Mountain Goats, "Dirt Roads and Howls of Wolves" by Memento Mori, "Hairball Alley" by Rocket from the Crypt, "Of Wolf and Man" by Metallica, and "In the Hour of the Wolf" by Barishi.

Dread Media's no stranger to the occasional diverse episode, and this week is a perfect example of that. First, Desmond and Chris pay tribute to David Bowie in their review of The Hunger. Devil Dinosaur Jr. reckons with Human Centipede 3. Finally, Rich the Monster Movie Kid talks about Kurt Russell's beard, among other things, in his review of Bone Tomahawk. There's also some diverse music: "Funtime" by Iggy Pop, "Sick of You" by GWAR, "213" by Slayer, and it's all bookended by "Cat People (Putting Out the Fire)" and "Lazarus" by David Bowie.

We have a great show for you this week! First off, we pay tribute to Angus Scrimm who left the world this weekend, but he also left us his legacy as quite possibly the most imposing movie monster of the modern era. First-time director of Troma's B.C. Butcher, Kansas Bowling, comes on the show to talk about Kato Kaelin, the birth of the prehistoric slasher, and directing her first film at 17.

We end Yellow Christmas in style with a slew of films from the sleazy history of giallo. From 1972 all the way to 2015, five films outline the blood, black gloves, and boobs that we all love so much. First up, Desmond and Darryll dust off their film-reviewing prowess in Sergio Martino's sleazy Your Vice Is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key. Then, Desmond and Duane discuss the violence against women and the storied and confusing history of Goblin in their review of Dario Argento's Tenebrae. In the first of an unprecedented two Stay Scaries, Devil Dinosaur Jr. looks at Lamberto Bava's failed television project that he turned into a feature film: A Blade in the Dark. Then another Argento film gets covered as Richard the Monster Movie Kid wades into the loaded question that is Argento's Phenomenon (AKA Creepers). Devil Dinosaur Jr. returns for another Stay Scary, taking a look at the Canadian filmmaking collective Astron 6's homage to giallo: The Editor. All this, a giveaway and music: "Carol of the Bells" by

This week, Dread Media is proud to present a conversation with film composing legend Fabio Frizzi. The Maestro talks about his working relationship with Lucio Fulci, the lasting qualities of his music, and his work on two gialli in particular: Seven Notes in Black and The Scorpion with Two Tails. On top of all that, we've added a full-length episode to the end of that interview as Chris joins Desmond to discuss the film that started it all: Mario Bava's Blood and Black Lace. Rich the Monster Movie Kid gives giallo another shot as he takes in a viewing of Black Belly of the Tarantula. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. jumps in to take the show home in a review of Short Night of the Glass Dolls. It would be silly if there wasn't music, right? "Sette Note Pt. 1 (Film Version)" by Bixio - Frizzi - Tempera, "Fear's Melody" by Fabio Frizzi, "Without a Face" by Rage Against the Machine, "Paralyzed" by Ruby the Hatchet, "Is It My Body?" by Alice Cooper, and (one more for good measure) "Verso L'Ignoto" by Fabio Frizzi.

Boobs, blood, and black gloves here! Get yer boobs, blood, and black gloves! Yellow Christmas begins as Dread Media dedicates the entire month of December to the notoriously sleazy, mean-spirited, and often nonsensical genre of Italian whodunnits: Giallo. This first week, a sampler of what the genre has to offer: Desmond and Darryll take on Lucio Fulci's classic Don't Torture a Duckling, Devil Dinosaur Jr. reviews Antonio Bido's grim The Bloodstained Shadow, and Rich the Monster Movie Kid dips his toes into the genre with a look at Emilio Miraglia's The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave. There's some tunes, as well: "I Kill Children" by Dead Kennedys, "Strangled with a Halo" by Pig Destroyer, "Bloodstains" by Agent Orange, "Living Dead Girl" by Rob Zombie, and "Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart" by Stone Temple Pilots. Don't forget to enter this month's killer giveaway. RIP Scott Weiland. Send feedback to: feedback@dreadmedia.net, or 206.278.5257. Follow @DevilDinosaurJr and @dreadmedia on Twitter! Join th

We are ushering November into nothingness as Desmond has a second interview with author Nicole Cushing. The two talk about Thomas Ligotti, blurbs, philosophy, extreme horror, and weirdos in relation to her two new releases Mr. Suicide and The Mirrors. Rich the Monster Movie Kid swings by to cover the obscure HBO skin flick / thriller Tattoo. Then Desmond goes solo on the indie anthology film The Horror Network, and the most insane Christmas movie you'll ever see: 12 Disasters. And of course, music: "Suicide Messiah" by Black Label Society, "Mirrors" by Blue Oyster Cult, "Feel So Numb" by Rob Zombie, "Impending Disaster" by Devil Driver, and "TNA (The Nihilistic Army)" by Turbonegro.

Don't tell anybody because this week Dread Media commits podcasting crimes. First, Desmond and Darryll wreck a perfectly good camping trip in their review of Deliverance. Then Duane joins Desmond for some baseball bat-related shenanigans in their review of Cold in July. Then Desmond steals a police cruiser and goes looking for a lost girl in his solo reviews of Cop Car and Skin Traffik. Turn these tunes up! It might not be against the law, but I'm sure it will at least be a bylaw infraction: "Dueling Banjos" by Eric Weissberg, "Deliverance" by Corrosion of Conformity, "20 Miles to Texas, 25 to Hell" by Powerman 5000, "Looking for Blood" by The Donnas, and "White on White Crime" by Agoraphobic Nosebleed.

It's been a long, strange trip, but Chris and Desmond have finally gotten together to discuss the third and final season of the Netflix Series Hemlock Grove. How does it fare compared to the other two? Did their favorite character get more screen time? Who in the blue Hell is stoner Luke Wilson? You'll have to listen to find out. Desmond goes solo to close out the show with a review of Last Shift. Songs include: "Gypsy" by Mercyful Fate, "Victory" by Bad Religion, "Ritual Blast" by Occultist, and "Skin-Tight Boogie" by Eagles of Death Metal.

This week, Dread Media presents its (at least) annual conversation with our friend, filmmaker, writer, and film festival runner Gregory Lamberson.

This week it's another grab-bag. Bear the awful audio as Chris and Desmond gush over Jake Gyllenhaal's masterful performance in Nightcrawler; thrill at Rich the Monster Movie Kid's discussion of the work of Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff in his review of The Invisible Ray; swallow your soul for Devil Dinosaur Jr.'s Stay Scary of the Evil Dead remake; and try to guess which two of these three films, which Desmond solo-reviews, are awful: A Plague So Pleasant, Old 37, and Queen Crab. There're tunes, as well: "Negative Creep" by Machine Head, "Nightcrawler" by Judas Priest, "Radioactive" by The Firm, "Evil Never Dies" by Overkill, "March of the Crabs" by Propagandhi, and "Fun House" by The Stooges.
