  1. Ho Ho Holy shit, what a bad movie?! This week, as is tradition, Desmond and Duane ring in the holiday season with a review of a Christmas horror film. This week, it's David Hess's first and only film as a director: To All a Good Night. But, because the movie pretty much blows, they instead rundown their own favorite Christmas horror films in an impromptu double Dread Media Top 5 tucked into a review. Then, Duane has been telling Desmond to watch Better Watch Out for years, so he finally does and gives a short review of that much better film. And of course, we pay tribute to one of the greatest film composers of all-time. Carols included: "Snow Dome Dreams" by Angelo Badalamenti (RIP), "No Presents for Christmas" by King Diamond, "Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight)" by The Ramones, and, of course, "Silent Night, Deadly Night (acoustic)" by The Browns.

  2. Oo-de-lally! Ian returns to Part of Your World, where the firstborn Wilson and the eldest Honore heir assess Robin Hood. How does Disney's animal adaptation of the medieval legend fare against those of Flynn, Costner, Crowe, and others, and why is it seen as more of misfire than a bullseye by some Disney fans? [ 1:57:29 ]
  3. We're all about getting that educational content in under the wire as we take a look at the UK's Video Nasty era! We open with 2021's Censor, a film set during the height of the controversy. Then, we look at two of the films directly affected by the censorship laws of the day: 1968's Night of the Living Dead and 1972's The Last House on the Left. [ 2:24:25 ]
  4. This week on the show, the amazing Lynn Lowry stops by to talk about her incredible film career from I Drink Your Blood all the way up to Guns of Eden and beyond. Stories abound from directors like David Cronenberg, George A Romero, Paul Schrader, and Greg Lamberson. Speaking of Greg Lamberson, he stops by to take part in a dual Dread Media Top 5 Action Films. All that, plus tunes: "The Fever" by Chris Alexander, "Cypress Grove" by Clutch, "First Blood" by Mountain Goats, and "Guilty Ones" by Hoaxed. [ 1:39:12 ]
  5. From all of us at WHXN 37 to all of you, happy holidays! We’re celebrating with some of the finest examples of blessings and tidings and cheer and all that, starting with 2000's A Diva's Christmas Carol! After that, we will hear nothing against 2017's A Christmas Prince! [ 1:35:14 ]
  6. This week on Dread Media, we present a double feature of brand new rock documentaries. Here's the rundown: first Desmond and Duane enjoy the definitive documentary on the legendary art collective / metal band / alien Scumdogs on a rampage in This is GWAR. Then, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 GWAR Songs and a review of the Life of Agony documentary The Sound of Scars. Songs included: "The Private Pain of Techno Destructo," "Sick of You," and "First Rule Is" by GWAR, "River Runs Red (Re-Zamped)" by Life of Agony, and "Immortal Corrupter" by GWAR.

  7. Sacre bleu! Emma comes back to help Christian cover The Aristocats, the first Disney film released during the 1970s and the first entry in the studio’s Bronze Age. (Or, depending on who you ask, its first Dark Age.) Along the way, Pandy chimes in with his thoughts on the film, Emma suggests a highly original (and tasty) way to grade movies, and both of les Honores have R-rated theories about Uncle Waldo. [ 57:10 ]
  8. We’ve got animation from across the globe for you this week! Fantastic Planet from 1973 will make you laugh! It will make you cry! It will make you think someone might have put something in your Fruity Pebbles! After that, recapture the feeling of looking for Japanese boobie cartoons in a shabby video store while we look back on 1986's Project A-Ko! [ 1:16:28 ]
  9. This week on the show, we're looking at two very different crime stories. First, Desmond and Tom take on the sexy pulp villain Diabolik in his new film. Then Desmond goes solo on the gritty southern noir novel The Devil Takes You Home by Gabino Iglesias. Songs included: "Underwater Wah Wah" by Ennio Morricone, "Deep Down" by Mike Patton, "The Devil in Mexico" by Murder by Death, and "Cursed to Die" by Lorna Shore. [ 50:27 ] [ download ]
  10. This week, Tom and Desmond scrape the bottom of the barrel with two great reviews of two awful films. First up, the Uruguayan mockumentary (?) Straight to VHS. Then we look at the half found-footage disaster Uncharted. No, not THAT Uncharted. Then there's feedback and music: "Nasty" by The Damned, "Ditch" by Lamb of God, "Jaguar God" by Mastodon and "Make You Suffer" by Mountain Goats. [ 1:06:53 ] [ download ]
  11. Yoo-hoo-hoo! Tom Hemmings reunites with Christian to cover The Jungle Book - the last film Walt Disney helped bring to fruition, and home to Beatlesque barbershop quartets, potentially problematic primates, and the greatest villain with Khan in his name (search your feelings; you know it to be true). Plus, The Transatlantic Two weigh in on Walt’s life, legacy, and less-than-laudable actions, and Tom teases a new segment for Earth-2.net: The Show! [ 2:03:23 ]
  12. http://www.earth-2.net/images/front/c37mms.jpg We’re coming together as one to battle the forces of evil this week on The Midnight Movie Show! Follow Barry Bostwick into hell and back, even as he does that weird thing with his thumb, in 1982’s Megaforce! After that, we’re going to look in on Wish.com's Robocop in 1990’s Super Force, but stick with us anyway! [ 1:12:56 ] [ download ][b]To listen, click here:[/b] [media]{url}[/media]
  13. This week on the show, Desmond and Duane review Santo and Blue Demon vs Dracula and The Wolf Man. And in a Dread Media first, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Reviews of the Five Other Masked Luchadore Films He Watched on Tubi This Week! Which movies are they? Listen to find out! Songs included: "Dressed Up to Get Messed Up" by -(16)-, "Fresh Blood" by Eels, "La Lucha" by Pancho Villa's Skull, and "Blue Giant" by Moon Destroys feat. Troy Sanders. [ 58:50 ]
  14. This week on Dread Media, Tom and Desmond really love the new Korean killer wild boar film Chaw. They also talk about Pig Hunt a lot.

Songs included: "Kevorkian Times" by Darkthrone, "Pork Soda" by Priimus, "Satan" by Danzig, and "Satan" by Orbital with Kirk Hammett. [ 55:19 ]
  15. Terrible tutors, ornery owls, dirty dishes, knightly scowls, woeful wolves, thirsty squirrels, songs that teach you to like girls, plotlines that need rearranging, Arthur’s voice just can’t stop changing, fearsome fishes, bland songs, filler that goes on too long, Christian, cranky, cruel, and crazy Dono’s Simpsons mem’ry hazy, groan-y gags, murky moats (though the wizards duel’s the GOATs), no need to put down your phone while you watch The Sword in the Stone, the hosts got through this dang film somehow, welcome to Part of Your World right now! [ 1:13:23 ]
  16. It's Vampyr (pronounced wom-PEER) weekend on The Movie Show! You haven't truly seen 1931's Dracula until you've experienced it in the original Spanish! As if that's not enough, we got cowboy vampires on horses once we were able to track down 1987's Near Dark! [ 1:25:02 ]
  17. After a bit of a hiatus, The Brothers Wilson return to bring you the Drew Barrymore instalment of Hey, an Actor! Covering her child actor years by dint of Firestarter, her mainstream commercial years via Charlie's Angels, and her successful romcom partnership with Adam Sandler in 50 First Dates. Ian and Pandy also take in a disproportionate amount of cultural appropriation, ranging from acting greats like George C Scott all the way down to Rob Schneider. Also, stay tuned to find out Ian's bugbears with Stephen King, what compels Pandy to dash out naked in the rain, and why, given all the legitimate closing song choices the featured films throw up, the episode ends on a deranged song about clowny clown clowns. [ 2:59:06 ]
  18. Not a sequel, not a remake, it's the review of Scream (2022) with Skyler and Will. As they cover a new installment in one of their favorite horror franchises, they discuss legacy, eulogize Wes Craven, and grapple with the terrors of Internet culture. We hope you enjoy that torch! [ 3:11:52 ]
  19. This week on the show, Desmond and Tom take on another obscure foreign superhero double feature. This time, they see what Brazil does with their political Punisher ripoff The Awakener. Then, they muddle their way through Donnie Yen's Proteges of the Black Rose. All that, plus feedback and tunes: "Hellnation" by Dead Kennedys, "Cobra" by Far from Alaska, "Black Roses" by The Browns, and "Punch Your Face In" by Razor. [ 1:08:32 ]
  20. Part of Your World and The Honore Litter enter the 1960s with the sequel- / spinoff- / smoking-tastic One Hundred and One Dalmatians. Is it The Best in Show, a bit spotty, or have elements of both? Plus, the podcast gets its first ending outtake, Emma reveals one of her first crushes, and, prompted by an email from Ian, both Christian and Emma rank the non-package films they’ve reviewed for the show thus far! [ 1:52:11 ]
  21. "Why spiders, Master Lee?" The clear answer is for a Flickchart Forum for Spider-Man movies! Ian Wilson is joined by Donovan Morgan Grant and Christian Honore as they discuss and rank the non-Avengers films related to New York's favorite web-slinger. There's controversy to be had if you're a fan of Spider-Man 2, whilst each host debates the best Spider-Man actor. Also: lizards! And guess what. This is the 17th anniversary of Earth-2.net: The Show! [ 3:42:53 ] [ download ]
  22. This week, it's another double feature of "women in trouble" films with Tom. First up, podcast favorite actress Maika Monroe does her best Hitchcock audition in Watcher. And did someone say Hitchcock? Dario Argento is back with another giallo film in Dark Glasses. Soundtrack to your nervous breakdown: "The Watcher" by Arch Enemy, "I Am a Pig" by Two, "Dark Bolero" by Goblin Rebirth, and "No Escape from Now" by Ozzy Osbourne featuring Tony Iommi. [ 1:10:35 || 34.1 MB ]
  23. An ambassador attempts to bring peace to a warring race, but things go topsy-turvy from the jump ("Loud as a Whisper"). Then a creeper finds immortality in Data's body ("The Schizoid Man"). [ 43:23 || 21.3 MB ]
  24. If you're gonna find yourself in pitched battle on the plains of a lost fantasy kingdom, you'd better find yourself a kickass weapon to carry around - and not use! Cast members of half a dozen TV shows you vaguely remember take this responsibility very seriously in 1981's The Sword and the Sorcerer! Then, get ready to doodle the Glaive in the margins of your English notebook after we dig into 1983's Krull! [ 1:35:19 ]
  25. This week on the show, Nicole Cushing returns to talk about belief in the supernatural, reading translated works. and transformation, as well as her brand new novel Mothwoman. Songs included: "I Am the Moth" by Tiger Army, "The Moth" by Death Angel, "A Dying God Coming Into Human Flesh" by Celtic Frost, and "The Sleeper" by Acid Witch. [ 1:13:57 || 35.7 MB ] [ download ]
