We recorded our milestone 150th episode on Friday, September 13th and decided to mark the occasion by covering the 2nd film in the Friday franchise.  With our special guest Eugene we're going back to 1981 to revisit the original Baghead Jason.  This film made absolutely no sense considering the info from the first movie.  Audiences didn't care.  More deaths, more destruction.  Come, revisit the Friday before the hockey mask.  Join us as we give the Horror 101 treatment to Steve Miner's Friday...

On our 149th show we're going to back to 1980 to focus on a satirical horror starring Rory Calhoun and Nancy Parsons.    This film made the cover of Fangoria #9.  Ebert liked it much more than my crew did.  What's all that strange noise coming from inside Vincent's secret garden?

On our 147th show we are once again paying homage to a recently lost treasure.  We lost Roger Corman at the age of 98.  The amount of talent that was realised through his projects is innumerable .  The man was a Hollywood Kingmaker.  Nobody could make a film as quick and as cheap as Roger Corman yet he still produced solid, entertaining films.  We hope you enjoy as we give the Horror 101 Treatment to Corman's classic The Masque of the Red Death from 1964, starring Vincent Price.  Show...

Welcome Horror 101 Listeners!  We have another podcast for you.  This time we're going back to 1980 and reaching into the Nasty Bag for another Italian Splatterfest.  Two episodes back we had such a good time covering Zombie from 1979, we decided to focus on another Fulci classic.  This would be the first of his Gates of Hell Trilogy.  Starring Catriona MacColl and Christopher George, this movie breaks all the rules and gives you a demented acid trip of demonic mayhem with supernatural...

Greetings Horror Fans!  For our 145th episode we're spotlighting a new Australian film from the Cairnes Bros.  This is an excellent example of independent horror being done correct.  This movie has masterful performances and an authentic retro 70s style that delivers a tense and fascinating faux reality experience.  We cannot remember another film that made us want to press play on it again right away.  We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 Treatment of Late Night with the Devil, starring David...

Happy Easter!  And welcome Horror 101 fans to our 144th show.   A year after Romero's epic Dawn of the Dead took the Horror world by storm Italy answered with their own take on the undead subgenre, made for the International market.  This would be Lucio Fulci's first entry in an array of graphic Euro-Splatter features made for English audiences which would crown him the Godfather of Italian Splatter.  With unforgettable sequences and gore which is as graphic as it is ridiculous we are...

Welcome to our 143rd episode!   For the first time ever we flipped a coin with the microphone running and let fate decide the direction for this show.   There's been word that Jordan Peele's company has announced they are remaking this title.  Its not the most celebrated film by Wes Craven but we hope you enjoy as we give the Horror 101 treatment to the bizarre 1991 horror The People Under the Stairs.  Show Highlights:01:00 Prelude to Terror...07:00 The Coin Toss!11:30  Birthday Tarot Card...

Welcome to our first show of 2024!  We're hoping that you're in the mood for some European 80s sleaze cause that is whats on the docket for this podcast.  Gratuitous nudity.  Horrible dubbing.  Extreme violence and bad acting all wrapped up in a package of camp from a Spanish director.  They cannot make films like this anymore.  We had a lot of fun picking this feature apart and we hope you enjoy as well as we give the Horror 101 treatment to Juan Piquer Simón's Pieces.  Its EXACTLY what you...

We're going back to 1980 on this show.  There are 5 movies that made Jamie Lee Curtis one of the most famous scream queens, ever.  Tonight, we bring you another one of those.  Since this show is coming out on New Year's Eve and the setting of this film is also on the same occasion, we're giving the Horror 101 treatment to Roger Spottiswoode's Terror Train.  Happy New Year to all our listeners!Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror...04:30  60% of our crew has NOT seen this film...07:50  The...

We saw this Friday the 13th in October coming a mile a way and ever since January my crew knew exactly what we were going to cover for this month.   Every horror fan has their favourite Friday the 13th film and God knows there's a lot to choose from.  With masterful photography, great direction, an interesting, well written cast.  The best stuntman playing Jason this side of Kane Hodder and graphic Tom Savini gore we're going to argue that Part 4 should be at the top of everyone's list.  We...

This has been a guilty pleasure for decades.  Most reviewers either love it or hate it.  As we setup for the end of summer around here we're giving the Horror 101 treatment to William Wesley's Scarecrows.  Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror...03:45  The Gifts of Stewart...06:15  Remembering Scarecrows...13:00  A Double cross...19:40  Betrayal Unravels...25:15  Burt's at the House....32:40  Knife in the Face...37:15  Midnight Getaway...41:00  Jack's Back...45:30  Scoring the...

Welcome to our 137th show!  In the late 90s a young Paul W.S. Anderson directed a fantastic cast in a Horror/Sci Fi that's main goal was to give you a haunted house in space film.  Test Audiences hated it.  Half an hour was cut from it.  The negative has been neglected and destroyed and although it was a commercial failure this film has since gathered a huge following in the horror community.  Its been a long time since our crew had extremely varied opinions on a title.  We hope you enjoy as...

We put Nood through the creepy crawler ringer once again!  This show we're going back to 1990 and revisiting the thrillomity of that summer.  Its been confirmed, we lost Julian Sands on Mount Baldy this year.  He was part of this Spielberg produced killer spider film which cuts an even slice of dread and comedy to appeal to all audiences.  Fond memories of this title.  We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of Frank Marshall's Arachnophobia!  Be sure to shake your shows and check your...

We hope you're feeling Nasty today cause thats exactly what we're covering.  A slasher gore piece from 1981 that was on the UK's Video Nasty list.  Of all the films is the 80s that tried to copy the Friday the 13th formula with a brutal killer in the woods this movie is one of the noteworthy ones.  It has an impressive synth score from Richard Wakeman of Yes.  Tom Savini does the horror effects and this was Bob and Harvey Weinstein's first film for their label Miramax.  The now disgraced...

Two days before we convened to run the microphone for this episode Evil Dead Rise was released for stream.  Hot off the press.  We had to strike while the iron was hot.  None of us were fans of the 2013 remake and expectations were low for this entry.  All of us had avoided spoilers and were going in to this cold.  We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of Lee Cronin's addition to the Evil Dead Universe.Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror04:45  Remembering our first Evil Dead...

If you were a subscriber of The Gorezone or Fangoria magazines back in the day, you would have heard all about it.  Outside of that, there is a very good chance you missed this sleeper genre movie.  Two horror icons give us their modernized take on a pair of Edgar Allan Poe stories.  Join us as we give the Horror 101 treatment to Romero/Argento's Two Evil Eyes.  Show Hightlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror...04:30  Introducing the film...11:35  Liquidating Assets...13:55  Power Through...

Welcome to our 132nd Episode!  This was recorded on St. Patty's Day.  No, we're not covering Leprechaun.  We did entertain the idea of covering an Irish themed horror but ultimately went with a film from 2016.  Its quick, its tight.  Its a decent shocker.  Its a solid supernatural story that seems familiar but repacked well.  Its claustrophobic and has an excellent cast and for these reasons we're giving the Horror 101 treatment to André Øvredal's The Autopsy of Jane Doe.Show Highlights:01:00...

Welcome to our 131st show.  With the recent news of Julian Sands lost on California's Mount Baldy we decided to focus on another Anthony Hickox film which features one of the best contributions by Mr. Sands to the horror genre.  We give the Horror 101 treatment to Warlock Armageddon in the hopes that Julian Sands might still be alive out there.  Show Highlights:01:00 Prelude to Terror...04:45  The legacy of Julian Sands...14:22  Medieval Massacre...17:00  Birth of the Warlock...23:30  Killing...

Welcome back to the Horror 101 Podcast!  On our 130th episode we go back to the early 70s and feature a Spanish film which brings Hammer favourites Lee and Cushing together as allies against an ancient evil loose on the famous Trans-Siberian train in the early 20th century..  Horror Express is very much a reverse murder mystery combined with elements of The Thing.  It is now within the public domain and can be enjoyed by everyone at anytime.  We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of this...

After another disappointing Halloween we decided to go back to the 80s and cover something we KNEW we would have fun dissecting.  It features one of our favourite genre actors, Tom Atkins and has a script that is much smarter than it deserves to be.  A wonderful blend of 50s schlock and 80s gore.  A true love letter to the horror genre.  For our 128th podcast we're giving the Horror 101 treatment to Fred Dekker's Night of the Creeps.Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror05:00  Introducing...
