EPISODE 10 & NEXT MONTH'S FILMS

I would guess that most of you have probably already listened to the episode since we posted it over a week ago, but if you haven't, go ahead and listen HERE.

Upon more research, we found out that Hammer's Dracula was released in the US as Horror of Dracula. Those of our listeners lucky enough to be in the UK could watch the 1958 release on Blu Ray with some of the mythical "Japanese version" scenes edited in. For those of us here in the States, we'll have to stick with the original release on DVD, I'm afraid. No worries though, it's only around $7 on Amazon with other Dracula releases.

Jim's pick:
Dracula (1958)









Ryan's pick:
Scream and Scream Again (1970)

Enjoy the films and we look forward to hearing from you soon! 

Wellington!

PHIL ANSELMO'S FAVORITES AND THEN SOME

We've always known that Phil Anselmo is a huge horror film fan, but not until we read this recent article did we realize how huge. Check it out on Bloody-disgusting.com



Also, we've been jamming the new Down EP, IV, Part I-The Purple EP. Not too shabby. Check it out when you get a second.

NEXT MONTH'S MOVIES AND OTHER STUFF

We finished episode nine on Saturday night and it will be posted this week as soon as editing is done. Be warned, it's just short of two hours! We're long-winded anyway, but this time we had a very good discussion on the "sacred cow" of British horror films; The Wicker Man. We had a lot of fun recording this one and we think it will be worth your time to listen in.

We've also re-released episode one, the introduction to the Crypt. For some reason iTunes dropped it when we bought more storage for our Libsyn account. Rather than continuing on with more episodes, we felt it important to re-post episode one because of the important content that it contains about what we are trying to accomplish. If you're a late comer to the podcast, please take a listen.

Lastly, we've chosen our films for February (or possibly the end of January).

Ryan's pick:

Land of the Minotaur

Jim's pick:

Vampire Circus

I picked this one solely because Eric hated its guts. I HAVE to find out why!

EPISODE 8

So, check it out; Episode 8 is up and it sounds pretty damn good. Unfortunately, I titled it The Brides of Frankenstein & Madhouse. Stupid mistake, but I'm pretty sure I typed it up that way because I was watching House of Frankenstein last night while I was uploading it.

Oops.

I hope you enjoy it anyway!

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS

Eric (@lugosi6) and I started chatting last week about Christmas gifts and what would be good to buy for the picky British horror film fan. Here's a list of a few things we came up with.

We'll start with the cheap and simple:

The Brain Candle: Who wouldn't want this thing in their office/laboratory?

We love our comics and these are cheap, so check out some Creepy comics as gifts. ( pair it up with a set of these). It's Bernie Wrightson, guys. C'mon.

Head on over to the Chopping Mall and pick up a few shirts. I'll take this one.

Here's the book that Ryan just picked up. This thing has already proved its worth during recording. It's incredible.

Feeling dirty after watching The Reptile? Wash up with a few of these.

For the drunken horror fan on your list.

A 12" Plague of the Zombies figure?!? Pricey, but worth it.

While we're talking price, may as well check this poster out.

These busts are killer. I especially love Ingrid Pitt's bust. See what I did there?
                   


                                                                       
This list is in no particular order, but I've saved my two favorites for last:

I don't know if you can gift a membership to this club or not, but if so I'll make sure my Tuesdays are open from now on.

The last gift I'd like to list still blows my mind. I am baffled that this is a real thing.

Get shopping.

Wellington!
