This week Lee and Daniel take a look at two interesting horror gems from the early 1970s. First off it's the fifth film in the Hammer Dracula cycle, 1970's "Taste the Blood of Dracula", directed by Peter Sasdy. Then they look at a film that has more than a little in common with John W. Campbell, Jr.'s "Who Goes There?" (better known by most from its other big screen adaptations "The Thing from Another World" and "John Carpenter's The Thing"). The film in question is the lesser known Spanish Hammer-like production, "Horror Express" from 1972, directed by Eugenio Martín. Also covered: what the hosts have watched in the last little while.Featured Music: "End Titles" by John Cacavas.

Lee, Daniel, and Paul are back for another visit with the films of Jess Franco as they take a look at 1971's erotic revenge film "She Killed in Ecstasy" and the much-abused sexed-up gothic horror "A Virgin Among the Living Dead", from 1973. Also covered: listener comments and what the hosts have watched as of late.

Lee and Daniel are joined this week by Lee's friend from the online beer reviewing community on YouTube, Hugh, better known as the Beerzerker. This time out they are taking a look at John Boorman's 1974 sci-fi film "Zardoz", starring a half-naked Sean Connery. They dig deep under the layers of Connery's red diaper to explore the various themes and ideas the film is really dealing with, once you get past some of the visuals, that have sadly overshadowed the film thanks to the pseudo-MST3K crowd out there. Also covered: listener comments and what they've been watching as of late, featuring Lee's thoughts on "The Hateful Eight" screener that was recently leaked.8-Bit ZardozThe Beerzerker on YoutubeFeatured Music: "Zardoz (Beethoven Opus 92)" by Zzebra.

This week Lee and Daniel are joined by Dan's wife Shana and their mutual friend Ryan to discuss two selections from the filmography of Mel Brooks. It seems to be the norm with this podcast to somewhat avoid the obvious films from any given director, and that theme is continued here as the start and end (so far) of the second half of Brooks' directing career are covered here in 1981's "History of the World: Part I", and "Dracula: Dead and Loving It" from 1995. What the hosts have been watching is also covered, but it focuses mostly on TV shows this time around. They also dive into a couple of listener comments.
Featured Music: "It's Good to be the King Rap Parts 1 & 2" by Mel Brooks.

Monday Nov 30, 2015
Lee is back with Daniel and Paul in what became a very long episode. The year is winding down, Halloween and Thanksgiving have just passed, and we are approaching Christmas and New Year's. So this time out the theme is a general chat about holiday films, that often goes off on lengthy asides. They also talk about what they've been watching as of late (which leads to more lengthy asides), and they bring back the Movie God Game. If you've got two and a half hours to kill, this might be for you.Pex Lives coverage of Amicus films.Featured Music: "I'm the One Who Gunned Santa Down" by Deadbolt & "The Gremlin Rag" by Jerry Goldsmith.

First off they look at a little Euro sex in "The Libertine" (1960) and then they move on to a strange pseudo-doc surrounding the people involved in a 1980s computer chess competition in (you guessed it) 2013's "Computer Chess".

Saturday Apr 04, 2015
Lee and Paul discuss Paul's favourite horror film genre: the werewolf movie. While this is by no means a detailed breakdown of the genre as a whole, we do cover several key elements and the best and worst films that come to mind as examples. It's a casual conversation, but it does, at the very least, present a good primer for those looking to jump into werewolf films. End Music: "Howling Theme" by Steve Parsons and Babel.

Monday Jan 26, 2015
This time out it's two hours of power. Daniel was not available this week so Lee is joined by Paul of PABrewNews, who is a fellow avid horror fan, to finally have a long-planned conversation about more lesser-known horror films they think everyone should see, overrated horror films, newer films that they've taken a liking to, and recent viewings and purchases. This conversation is a slightly edited version of a Google+ Hangout they conducted, so the sound quality might be slightly iffy in a few spots, but not to any extent that it's unlistenable.
