  1. This week, Dread Media returns to the well-worn theme of killer kids. First up, a young single father is haunted by the hooded delinquents who killed the mother of his child in Desmond and Duane's review of Citadel. Then, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Non-Supernatural Killer Kid films. Music included: "Lil' Bloodred Ridin' Hood" by Children of Bodom, "Children of the Damned" by Iron Maiden, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Melvins and Leif Garrett, and "Am I Evil? 2020" by Diamond Head.

  2. While Wesley is away taking entry exams for Starfleet Academy, Picard and the rest of the crew are put under the microscope by a paranoid admiral ("Coming of Age"). Then Worf finds himself intrigued by the first Klingons he's meet since his childhood, but their plans for glory threaten the ship as well as the shaky peace between The Klingon Empire and The Federation ("Heart of Glory").

  3. Despite the misleading poster and title, Chopping Mall remains a classic of 1980s horror / sci-fi cinema with two amazing female leads. Desmond and Tom talk all about that and more in their review of the Wynorski film this week. Then, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 TV Shows I'm Watching Lately. Look, they're not all going to have great themes! Songs included: "Chop Chop Chop" by Alice Cooper, "Robot Assisted Suicide" by Polkadot Cadaver, "Your Window Is Open" by Macabre, and "John Carpenter Powder Ballad" by Turbonegro.

  4. The first featured actor of 2021 on Hey, an Actor! is comedic-turned-serious actor via Batman: Michael Keaton. The Brothers Wilson look at one of his break-out hits in Mr. Mom, his signifying career renaissance statement known as Birdman: or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance), and one of his most famous roles working with Tim Burton (no, not that one) Beetlejuice. Along the way Pandy rants, Ian lays out the secret behind Danny Elfman's career, and a Pandy Parody closes out the show. [ 3:10:46 || 91.9 MB ]

  8. This week on Dread Media, help ring in episode 700 with us as Desmond and Tom review the entire Resident Evil series! All six films get reviews this week, so make sure to jump in on the action of Milla being purty, poor continuity, and the inability to tell these movies apart. It ain't pretty, but it's really fun. Also, all of these songs are from the RE film series except one: "Invisible Wounds (The Sulutre Mix)" by Fear Factory, "Dirt" by Depeche Mode, "Vermilion" by Slipknot, "My World" by Emigrate, "The Outsider (Resident Renholder Remix)" by A Perfect Circle, "Flying through the air (Resident Evil Retribution main theme)" by Tomandandy, "Ascension (Resident Evil the Final Chapter OST) by Paul Haslinger, and "Rocket Collecting" by MIlla.

  9. This week on Dread Media, Desmond welcomes Steven Kostanski (of Astron-6 and The Void fame) to talk about the influences behind his brand new film PG: Psycho Goreman.

  12. Fresh off the scratching post in a French peasant's blockade: it's 2020's Hey, an Actor! Christmas Special! In accordance with tradition, the December Director is Tom Hooper and The Brothers Wilson sink their teeth into two of his high-profile adaptations of musicals. First, 2012's Les Miserables, and then 2019's Cats. Questions answered include: Whose were Pandy's first pair of filmic breasts? Which brother prefers a CGI abomination to a depressing French romp? And, what of all the musical offerings was chosen to end the episode? If that wasn't enough, there's also the Tomlinson Awards, a small selection of outtakes, and a lot of feedback fun. Merry Christmas, y'all! [ 2:50:24 || 82.1 MB ]

     

  13. This week on Dread Media, we thought it appropriate to end 2020 with a discussion on suffering. As such, our old friend Sezin Koehler and our new friend Paula Ashe join Desmond to go in-depth on Pascal Laugier's Martyrs. This is a spoiler-filled, hour-long discussion of the themes, brutality, and possible ending of the film. And there's even a little glimmer of hope. So make sure you've watched it before listening. Songs: "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr" by Trivium, "Your Witness" by Seppuku Paradigm, and "This Year" by Mountain Goats. [ 1:16:55 || 37.1 MB ]

     

  14. Doug Furnas and Phil LaFon's run on Shtogun continues in a match that the ring simply could not contain. Meanwhile, on Monday Night Raw, there's a special Christmas episode, and Shawn Michaels is in a very giving mood as he is forced to defend the European Championship against HHH. Kellen and Tom review Shawn's championship history in despair. [ 1:40:23 || 48.3 MB ]

     

  15. Happy Holidays from us here at Dread Media. This Christmas episode was cobbled together kind of last minute, but it turned out to be a great episode featuring several contributors!

  17. A much-delayed Hey, an Actor sees The Brothers Wilson take on some choice entries of the filmography of the groundbreaking stand-up comedian and actor Richard Pryor. Both hosts experience Brewster's Millions for the first time, whilst Pandy nominates one of Pryor's many collaborations with the great Gene Wilder in See No Evil, Hear No Evil, and Ian finally allows a comic book movie to be covered on HAA via Superman III. We also deliver a mea culpa from Ian (RE: the podcast's delay), gain Evie Wilson's familiarity with the DC Universe, and, in a first for the podcast, announce the subject of our End of Year special (to be recorded very soon).
