Night of the Living Dead (Commentary)
We continue to celebrate horror for October by talking about one of Tim's favorite films and one of the most influential horror movies ever made. We're sitting sit down for a commentary track for the original Night of the Living Dead. Listen as we praise director George Romero's low-budget innovations, explore the various social and racial messages of the film, and comment on its stylistic tweaking of horror conventions. Listen for our countdown on when to start your copy of the movie so it syncs with the commentary. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and it's dead... it's all messed up.
Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

Episode 78: Evolution of the Living Dead
Here is our first live show, recorded at the Peabody Essex Museum as part of Salem Horror Fest. To mark the 50th anniversary of the release of Night of the Living Dead, we discuss George Romero's Living Dead film series. Listen as we discuss how Romero used zombies as metaphors for social issues, chart how Romero's zombies developed from flesh-eating monsters into the heroes of the series, and recognize the tremendous cultural impact Romero's films have had. Warning: Contains mild explicit language, spoilers, and some politics.

Episode 67: Heroes & Heroines
In a special episode recorded at the Arisia convention this past January, Rosie returns to have a chat about the great cinematic heroines and heroes. We discuss the attributes we look for in a movie hero before running down our lists of our favorite good guys and gals, a group which transcends race, gender, and species. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and some minor issues with ambient noise due to the recording space (not to mention some loud weirdos from the room next door).
