Down in front and pass the popcorn, let's hit the cinema to take in some box office shattering horror films as we discuss Blockbuster Horror. We are using an unoffical list of the top 25 grossing (domestic) horror films of all time adjusted to 2008 dollars as a crutch to drive a conversation about the impact of revenue on the industry. It becomes evident that box office returns do not necessarily reflect quality of product, however the standing of many widely respected titles gives us some reassurance that even mainstream 'non-horror' audiences can buy in from time to time.
You can find the list we are referring to (HERE) but we suggest listening to the show first to play along. Thanks again to Doug for pitching in to what became a very fun discussion.
Yet again the show runs long so Schlock Corner makes way for a quick dip into the mailbag and some brief thoughts about The Ruins.

BLOCKBUSTER HORROR
Stuff those pockets full of contraband snacks and let's hit the show - the Horroretc Podcast is going Hollywood.
A list ranking the most profitable horror films (domestic) adjusted to 2008 is used as fodder to fuel a fun discussion about blockbuster horror. Grab some popcorn and join in.

Salut, Bienvenue a L'Horror Etc Podcast.
This week we take a close look at a selection of the new wave of French Horror films which are making noise in horrordom.
The much discussed A' Linterieur (Inside) is first and foremost but we cover no less than 10 titles from the recent crop before all is said and done.
A couple of notes 1) almost all of our picks are from within the past 10 years, we felt there were more than enough selections to warrant revisiting the
topic at a later date; 2) In hindsight, and after much debate Ted conceded there may be possible spoilers when discussing Irreversible. If you wish
to go into the 2002 film completely unspoiled (even though the info is on the DVD box) the conversation runs from 22:25 to 28:09.
After spending some time with these Euro-horror flicks we have to wonder what our friends across the pond think of Hollywood crap like Prom Night '08.
Also, to find out more about Grand Guignon here's a good link to fill you in.
To wash our eyes out after the French horror films, we enjoy a fun Schlock corner where Crispin Glover drops by to visit Letterman after dropping acid circa 1987. The show closes out with a bit of housekeeping (the fallout from the M Night episode) and thoughts on Romero.

FRENCH HORROR
French horror films are the subject of the day and what a great topic to explore it is. A nice sampling of titles from the recent resurgence of French language horror are discussed.

SCHLOCK CORNER
We needed to lighten things up a bit - enjoy a very bizarre appearance by Crispin Glover on Letterman circa 1987 (Link Here)




The Horroretc Podcast is alive with the sound of music.
Anthony and Ted are joined by a special guest to discuss
music in film through the ages. Discussion topics include
the importance of music to a horror film, The overuse of
jump scare stingers, scores vs soundtracks, music vs no
music, notable composers, the effect of a bad score on a
good movie and many more.
Aside from an outburst of Wrath of Khan quotes, the conversation was a little heavy at times so watch for a lighter topic next week.
Our musical theme continues in Schlock Corner when we revisit William Shatner's ode to George Lucas of 'My Way' at the AFI lifetime acheivement awards. Watch along with us (here).
The show closes
out with an extended mailbag to catch up and respond to the e-mails
we have received. Thanks to all who have written and keep the
comments coming.
