In the debut of a brand new minicast on Dread Media Presents, Desmond Reddick is joined by Ian Wilson for the beginning of their epic journey to review every horror comic book movie adaptation: Dread Reel-ief! First up, we get to know Ian and his experience with horror before digging in to the obscure 2000 Japanese film Uzumaki, based on the popular manga of the same name by Junji Ito. Plenty of laughs to be had, even before the weird J-pop song at the end: "Raven" by Break of Dawn. To the Commonwealth!

In this edition of the Tirades, J, D, and M tackle Battlefield Earth, a movie about evil Rastafarians from a giant purple gumdrop that overtook humanity with mostly punch-based weaponry. We didn't make that up, though all facts that we did fabricate are now canon. This episode is best viewed from a 45 degree angle.

Yippie-ki-yay, mother and father! It's the Married to Movies finale! Desmond and Megan take on Die Hard and Steel Magnolias, pretty much the definitive representatives of their prospective genres. "Pontificous" is not a word. Desmond is right and Megan and Canada's national broadcasting company are wrong. Wrong! A strange noise interrupts a review, but is it the wind... or something paranormal?! Or is it just a hamster? Megan has a really weird side note about Natalie Portman that has nothing to do with anything. Then she makes one good point. But never mind that nonsense. The two dig in to some lovely and heartfelt feedback, and thank all of their listeners for hanging out with them these past 40 episodes. And bickering. There's always bickering. So thank you. You complete us. And get in da choppa! - Desmond and Megan [ 55:28 || 27.0 MB ] The above is from: http://www.earth-2.net/podcasts/marriedtomovies/episodes/marriedtomovies_040.mp3

In "The Swamp" the madness is runnin' wild, or is the titular wetland truly mystical? In "Avatar Day" we see the return of the one man too hot to handle and too cold to hold. That's right, The Blue Spirit is back. In "The Blind Bandit" we meet Toph, and we get some awesome nods to pro wrestling greats of the past. What a novel concept.
