Horror Junkies

It's a bit late, but here is the overdue episode on SPAWN!!!! The Horror Junkies got together to talk about everyone's other favorite Anti-Hero Spawn and how this character created one of the darkest stories in the comic world.

As usual we start with the news segment of the show and as per usual Pat A.K.A Tiny Rick brings a lot to the table. The first major highlight for the news was the recently dropped trailer for Jigsaw, the newest edition to the SAW franchise. Trailer looks like its going to a pretty blood filled movie, but it wouldn't be Jigsaw without blood. Unfortunately, this newest film gives us a SAW 2 kind of vibe, so lets hope it doesn't disappoint. The next piece of news to devour is the recently announced SPAWN movie. Todd McFarlane finally announced his big news during San Diego Comic Con that Blumhouse Productions will be making his movie.

We are tying a new segment on the show called Horrific Jams, where we play bands we listen to on the show and promote their music. This weeks' Horrific Jams is a song titled Near Dark by a Canadian band called Guiltfeeder. You can listen to there music at https://guiltfeeder.bandcamp.com/ or on Spotify.

This week on the Horror Junkies Podcast, the guys in the studio super late and sleep deprived. We decided that since another Master of Horror left this world to the next, that we would do a tributecast. And of course we are talking about the recent passing of George A. Romero.

First, as always, Patrick A.K.A Tiny Rick dives into the news. This week we held back a bit on the news, so we could spend more time discussing Romero and his films. Some highlights that we discussed were: 'The Snowman' featuring Michael Fassbender, and Guillermo del Toro's debut trailer for his upcoming movie 'The Shape of Water'. Both these films looking stunning and we cannot wait for them to be released.

Getting into the main portion of the show. Romero redefined how horror movies would be made with the debut of his movie 'Night of the Living Dead', shaping the world from this one film that the Horror movie culture could in fact tackle social commentaries. We saw in 'Night of the Living Dead' how the lead act Duane Jones, not killed by the hordes of Zombies he had just spent 90 minutes fending off, but rather meet his demise by the hands of the armed militia. The movies commentary of the Civil Rights movement hits so hard, you yourself might become the undead. This is just one example of many on how Romero's work changed the Horror world, we go into much more during the show.

We played SuperFight this week and finally Angel and Mike got to battle each other. In the first round Angel won with Buffalo Bill who gets stronger when he drinks blood defeating Jigsaw armed with stakes, cross, and some garlic. We did another quick round and Mike ended up winning with a tribe of cannibals armed with one gun with silver bullets. Angel had Wolfman, who was having some sort of religious breakdown.

As always, tell us how were doing and be sure to share our show with your friends. Follow us on Instagram and Twitter @HorrorJunkiesFl if you want to see how stupid we get.

STAY WEIRD!!!

This week the Horror Junkies got together with their awesome friend Jorge to talk about disgusting, creepy, crawling Spider movies. Listeners beware, this might make you feel uncomfortable.

As usual Patrick takes us through the news, and as always there is just so much happening in the Horror world. The Strangers 2 just announced that they cast the three individuals to play as the beloved Strangers. Also released was an awesome trailer and poster for the upcoming season of Stranger Things, and Jesus, do things look like they are going to get stranger. 

We talk about Tarantula from 1955 by Jack Arnold, Arachnophobia directed by Frank Marshall and of course a cult classic Eight Legged Freaks directed by Ellory Elkayem. Jorge tells us about a personal encounter with a spider and of course things get creepy.

And lastly, our friend Kayla jumped on the mic to help us review Spider-Man Homecoming. We know its not a Horror movie, but it's our show and we decided to do it. So just listen to us nerd out.
