A Little Dead Podcast » A Little Comic Book Update (for 03 March 2010)
My friends at A Little Dead Podcast asked me to review the 4-issue release of The Crazies, and I had a great time doing so.

Dead Lantern Splattercast » The 3rd Annual Splatcademy Awards
This was fun, as I gave a highly slanderous presentation for Best Director.

And while you're there, check out all the other great stuff Melzer has to offer. It's well worth your time.

Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer (2007)
I probably wouldn't have given this one a chance if it weren't for the bubbly exciting review given by my friends on the Horror Etc. podcast.

White Zombie (1932)
I've seen this one many times. It's the only zombie movie I've watched lately, and it's one of the best.

Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus (2009)
Well, I watched most of this. However, the antics of confused, irate podcasters interrupted my viewing of this fine film. But I'm pretty sure I got the gist of what this one has to offer. To be fair, I'll probably give it another shot.

Phantasm (1979)
Love this movie. Quite possibly the best plot ever. People call this a zombie movie, but I disagree -- despite the fact that zombies are in it. Just because zombies appear in the movie, it doesn't mean that it's a zombie movie.

Drag Me To Hell (2009)
I finally saw this one. To be honest, I saw the TV trailers before it came out, and although I was excited that it was Sam Raimi, I wasn't excited about what I saw. To me, it was just a lot of CG. However, I followed the rave reviews I've heard about it, and just bought the DVD. I'm glad I did.

Let the Right One In (2008)
One of my favorite vampire movies ever. I bought this DVD at the same time I bought Drag Me To Hell, at the recommendation of KruegerDude.

Them! (1954)
It was on Netflix Instant Watch, so I watched it. I love movies about giant creatures from this era, and these giant ants are classic.

Just to clarify, Library of the Living Dead is now the longest-running zombie podcast in existence, mainly focusing on the reading of zombie fiction and Dr. Pus' own brand of songwriting. There are also a variety of other things that pop up on the podcast from time to time, such as reviews, rants, music, you name it. It's over 100 episodes strong as of this writing.

Library of Horror follows the same format, but is not limited to just zombies. Actually, it's anything horror except zombies. It just got started, and just released its 2nd episode this past week.

The support I keep getting from podcasters (and listeners) has been astounding. Of course, there are those out there who are bitter and will kick me when I'm down, but that's to be expected in this cutthroat world of multi-million-dollar podcasting.

And you know I just can't stay away from podcasting. I've made so many friends over the years, and so many other podcasts have stepped forward and opened their shows to me. As you know, I'll regularly appear on Dr. Pus' Library of Horror and Library of the Living Dead podcasts.

I just confirmed that I'll also be doing a review segment for my friend James Melzer (and see below -- we're also working on a book together) on his monthly podcast UNLEASHED. Check out all of Melzer's wonderful work here.

This is an incredible honor.

Thanks to Dr. Pus and the Library community for welcoming me in!

Right now, I'm watching the 1968 classic Spider Baby -- one of my favorites. It's remarkable how different this is from Night of the Living Dead, which was released the same year. Spider Baby is twisted and somewhat comedic, with a hint of camp. Night, on the other hand, is stark and nihilistic.
