HMPOD.com Podcast 43 — Be afraid of the dark!

Naughty, naughty tooth fairy

This episode of The Horror Movie Show (with your long-suffering hosts Jerry & Mark) features reviews & discussions about the movies Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (Guillermo del Toro‘s remake of a 1973 TV-movie), Children of the Corn: Genesis (yet another sequel to a lame Stephen King story), The Dead (African zombies galore) and Creature (Louisiana swamps + teens + monster = pseudo-entertainment). Hope nobody is getting too burned out about Xmas yet. Tis not yet the season….

Horrorscopes by Mark Elf

Is Hitler’s brain still alive?

It could well be. In fact, I’m pretty sure Adolf Hitler‘s disembodied brain is calling the shots for the Republican Party, considering the sort of submoronic right-wing chowderheads that are representin’ the idiot Teabaggers. The fact is, the economy is in the dumper — and I don’t just mean the U.S. economy, I mean the entire world’s economy — and fixing a problem of this scope is a matter of guesswork for whoever is in the White House, 10 Downing Street or wherever it is world leaders clean themselves in private.

Well… I seem to have veered from topic. Here are another dozen Horrorscope prognostications from that odiferous fellow, Mr. Mark Elf. Hope they are of use to you. I’m going to find a bottle and crawl inside. (It’s going to have to be a big bottle.)

Does anybody else hear those damned bells?

HMPOD.com Podcast 42 — Apollo 18 & more

The Moon is not made of cheese

At least, that’s what a pair of U.S. astronauts discover when they are sent on a secret mission to our planet’s largest satellite… It seems the Soviets got there some time before— but no, let our wonderful hosts, Mark & Jerry, tell you all about Apollo 18, a frightening tale of being truly alone. Also mentioned in this episode of The Horror Movie Show are much-loved director John Carpenter’s The Ward, TV-movie Killer Mountain, 2010: Moby Dick and a quick review of the Original Faces of Death, first in a long series of grisly flicks. Anything else? Well… maybe a comment or two about how stupid and ridiculous is Fox News hack Sarah Palin. Why not?
