Christmas may only come once a year, but the Grave Plot Podcast Christmas special just keeps coming!
Phrasing?
In today's second part, we start things out with our annual gift exchange. We don't know why you guys would want to hear that but, you know, it's tradition at this point. We also give a call down under and talk to Australian actor/writer/director Craig Anderson about making horror movies and specifically his new story of yuletide terror, Red Christmas.
Speaking of which, we go on to review of that very movie. Starring Dee Wallace and featuring an aborted killer, this indie film is tearing through the festival circuit like Santa Claus tearing through the Christmas eve sky. So unwrap that massive package and pull out a brand new episode of The Grave Plot Podcast.
Phrasing.
Merry Christmas!

Octoberama 2016, Vol. 4: WNUF Halloween Special/The Pumpkin Karver
Wednesday Oct 26, 2016
Wednesday Oct 26, 2016
Happy, happy Halloween! We close out 2016's Octoberama with our fourth annual Halloween special.
To kick things off, we announce the winner of our free t-shirt raffle and tell ghost stories from our experiences at the Stanley Hotel and Queen Mary. We also do a little bitch-and-moan session about Friday the 13th and Godzilla.
Then we jump into Horror Business, where we tell a Real World Horror story from Sacramento about a lady taking her skull for a walk. We give you updates on The Walking Dead, Gerald's Game, and The Wolf Man, plus a new MTV show and the latest on the Friday the 13th video game.
For our reviews, we offer up two Halloween films. First, we discuss The Pumpkin Karver, about a town called Carver and a guy who is a carver and he carves stuff and carving and Dana Carvey and... sorry, I blacked out. Then we bust out the VCR so we can watch the VHS tape of the WNUF Halloween Special.
So throw a sheet over your head, grab a plastic pumpkin bucket, and let's go trick-or-treating.

Octoberama 2016, Vol. 3: The Omen/The Exorcist III
Wednesday Oct 19, 2016
Wednesday Oct 19, 2016
Most part threes suck. But here's hoping that part three of Octoberama 2016 is more Dream Warriors than Ghoulies Go to College. Or at least better than part two.
Speaking of part threes, today we're going to talk The Exorcist III because this is the inaugural Week of the Devil. Of course, how can you have Week of the Devil without talking about the son of the devil? We discuss Damien Thorne when we review the 1976 classic The Omen.
So you better grab your crucifix and say your prayers as hard as you can, because shit's gonna get dark.

Octoberama 2016, Vol. 2: Juan of the Dead/The Dead Next Door
Wednesday Oct 12, 2016
Wednesday Oct 12, 2016
Much like a zombie, Octoberama will not stay dead! We roll on with our Week of the Zombie episode and third anniversary.
This one kind of went off the rails, with Tony still recovering from his vacation and Taylor slightly hungover from the Great Pumpkin Beer Festival. We power through Horror Business, including stories on Bigfoot, remake news on Suspiria and Halloween, updates on the Purge franchise, and a couple of new TV shows. Then we completely lose it and give up.
Things pick up slightly in our reviews, as we rise from the dead like the zombies in the films. Yes, I know I already used that euphemism, it's just that kind of day. First up, we discuss the 1989 low budget schlock fest that is The Dead Next Door. Next up, Tony bitches about subtitles as we review the Cuban political horror comedy Juan de los Muertos. Then we mercifully put a bullet in this one's head because it is DONE. (Note: Our closing song is Zombie Jamboree because it drives Taylor insane. -Tony)
But not before we announce a special giveaway! We are giving two lucky listeners a chance to win free Grave Plot Podcast t-shirts. Click here to enter. Winners will be announced in our Halloween episode.

Episode 71 - Don't Breathe/Morgan
Wednesday Sep 28, 2016
Wednesday Sep 28, 2016
We're about that action, boss. Today's action includes a Real World Horror story that makes Taylor's skin crawl. We also discuss interactive haunted attractions, including one from Saw II writer/director Darren Lynn Bousman. From there, we go on to talk about new Toxic Avenger and Re-Animator movies, as well as a couple of new films coming to Netflix. One is a Stephen King adaptation from the writer/director of Hush and one is a horror/comedy from the maker of Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. We're thankful.
For our reviews, we evaluate the good, bad, and ugly of the films Don't Breathe and Morgan. One is getting rave reviews and one is getting trashed. Our opinions are often fairly contradictory to the masses, tune in to find out if today is any different. Thanks for asking.
There's also a bit of a discussion on gun control, so... prepare yourself for that. We're just here so we don't get fined.
