OK, so here's the lowdown. Anthony and I had planned to launch the podcast coinciding with Halloween. It didn't turn out that way so some references now may sound a little out of date. Hope you can forgive and join us on a weekly basis as we bring horror discussions great and small to you.

Welcome to the first episode of the Horroretc podcast. Please join us in a comparison of Rob Zombie vs Rob Zombie in a look at the unneccesary Halloween 're-imagining', a look back to William Shatners 're-imagining' of Rocket Man and a general hey how are you chat.

Episode 3 of the Horroretc Podcast arrives...

In the show we discuss our thoughts on what lies ahead for the horror genre in film. Pretty broad subject with a few tangents but what do you think the future holds for horror? Are we experiencing a backslide of box office success, how much blame (credit) applies to PG13 ratings, are you as anxious to see 'torture porn' fade out as I am?

In schlock corner we throw in Lucio Fulci's Zombie 2 and walk you through the infamous eye gouge and underwater zombie vs. shark scenes...unforgettable.

Finally, we discuss recent watches Hatchet and Manitou (very different films indeed).

NOTE - this was recorded prior to the release of Saw 4 so clearly I (Ted) am an idiot as it has made $50M plus...who knew?

Star Wars Holiday Special: The Definition of Schlock!

In this episode of the horroretc podcast, we delve into the sometimes fun, sometimes offensive world of horror film remakes. While it goes without saying that the vast majority of remakes are cash grabs with little to no originality injected into the stories there are always exceptions to the rule. Speaking of which, we spell out several rules to be followed before considering a film for 're-imagining' (Hollywood, please take note).

In Schlock corner we visit the epitomy of the word schlock with a look back to the Star Wars Holiday Special...you haven't lived until you have seen Carrie Fisher belting out a musical number in her Leia cinnamon bun 'do.

Finally, several mutant cannibal films are discussed before delivering a strong recommendation to check out a new foreign horror film.
