Past Shows

Episode 3 - March 2009

Things are a bit mixed up and different this month.  We have the Bill Rebane interview and Steve joins John in reviewing a couple of Rebane directorial efforts The Demons of Ludlow and The Giant Spider Invasion.  If that weren’t enough the first installment of Sensei Cinema (with Steve again) and the first installment of the Mom and Pop video shop with Ed Demko are also featured. 

Episode 2 - February 2009

John and his regular cohost Jason discuss a couple of classic William Girdler films, Abby and Grizzly.  If that weren’t enough they also have an interview with Abby herself, Carol Speed.  Not a bad follow up for the second show.

Episode 18 - November 2009

I’m honestly not sure what we are going to be doing for the next show.  I know that Jason and I will be reviewing a couple of older horror/sci-fi movies from the 50s or early 60s.  What those might be, again I’m not sure.  I also think that Steve might be stopping by for another installment of Sensei Cinema.  Heck we might even have an interview if things fall into place for us.  Keep checking in here for updates.

Roy Frumkes stops by for an interview.  Since we have him on the show John and Ed are going to review Document of the Dead as well as Street Trash.  If that weren’t enough we give our convention report from Horror Realm and Steve stops by for another installment of Sensei Cinema.
