Episode 087- Dinosaur Horror! Double Feature

Hellbent for Horror ·

2019/08/22

Welcome to PART ONE of a podcast double-feature with the I Know Dino Podcast! Dragons! The xenomorph from Alien! The shark from Jaws! These monsters are descendants of real creatures that walked the earth- the dinosaur. Horror movies have used the dinosaur as a source for monsters since the silent era because they are a source of endless fascination and terror. But, do the dinosaurs deserve their role as horror movie villain? Are there dinosaurs that are even weirder and scarier than what the

Horror is an emotion first and a setting later. It's the only genre that is directly named after an emotion, and that gives horror a universal appeal. It also makes each person's experience and interpretation personal. We close out June, Pride Month, with a celebration of the contributions the LGBTQ community has brought to the horror genre since the creation of the Gothic novel. My guest is Waylon Jordan, the Associate Editor for iHorror.com, one of the largest online horror resources in the world

2019/05/23

Nothing marks the end of an era more potently than when the icons of that era pass away. The cold reality is that when horror icons pass away, they rarely get memorialized in mainstream arenas. So, I wanted to give an "Irish Wake", a happy send-off for several of the people who passed away over the last few years. The people who gave horror fans their First Kiss. Consider this episode the Last Kiss, a retrospective of the careers of writers, directors, actors, and illustrators and a final

The best thing about being a horror fan is sharing the love with other horror fans! And I had the pleasure to do just that! On April 11th, 2019 we did a live podcast of Hellbent for Horror and a live reading from my book, "Screaming for Pleasure" from the legendary horror bookstore, Dark Delicacies in Burbank, CA.

(Photo credit: CHRISTOPHER WAHL/CONTOUR BY GETTY IMAGES) If director Guillermo del Toro didn't exist, we horror fans would have had to invent him. He's a true lifelong fan himself, who brought his unique style and passion to horror films, and his love for monsters paid off when The Shape of Water won Best Picture in 2017. So...why is there so little conversation about Guillermo del Toro in the horror community? Has the man who makes horror films as love letters to the Outsider been branded an

Fire! Flood! Earthquake! Killer bees! Disaster Movies have been a staple of cinema since the Silent Era, and they are far more diverse in scope than you might think. Most Disaster Movies want to thrill you, but there are those proud few that really want to scare you. Let's take a look at some of those movies that put the Fear of God into us!

The story is told by the artists who made the movies, and they give their unflinching perspectives on the past, present, and future of black horror.

On October 4th, 2018, hundreds of figures dressed in black walked into the Wisdom Woods of Georgia to perform an unholy ceremony. Beasts were conjured and blood was spilled by the gallons in the pursuit of graven images. And popcorn was eaten. I was a witness to the Women in Horror Film Festival, and I lived to tell the tale!

So, what does “Punk Rock Attitude” mean, anyway? There are as many answers to this question as there are punk rockers. Although the connection between heavy metal and horror is well documented, the connection between horror and punk rock isn’t discussed as much. Yet, movies like CLASS OF 1984, and LIQUID SKY, and RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD, and even RE-ANIMATOR exude a punk rock attitude with a nihilistic brand of humor and irreverence. And now, there's a new punk rock kid in town! THE RANGER (2018)

Just because things might seem normal and ordinary…doesn’t mean they really ARE. Some places, no matter what your eyes tell you, just feel…weird…creepy…uncanny. Every culture has a haunted place…a haunted house. And Halloween is the night many of us go out to seek these haunted places!

The '80s were horror movie heaven. A wild mixture of new technology, misfit filmmakers, obscure distributors, rich dentists trying to find tax shelters, buckets of blood and latex, and home video rental helped usher in one of the most prolific and influential eras in horror film history. A new documentary in the works, IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS: A JOURNEY INTO ICONIC '80s HORROR, that has the potential to become the definitive look at this wild decade of horror.

Batshit Crazy horror movies are the messy upstarts that couldn’t blend into the crowd if they tried. They may not be for everyone, and they may be far from perfect, and they may never get critical praise, but they are not boring. They are so out of step with what is popular at the time that they have a timelessness to them. Because REAL CRAZY never ages. I hope you enjoy the show!
