Horroretc Podcast...it's STILL coming for you.

Happy Halloween 2016! You've heard it right, folks - Ted and Tony are pleased to bring you a BRAND-NEW episode of the Horror Etc Podcast, just in time for our favourite time of year... It's ghouls and ghosties, vampires and nasties - a generous helping as we catch-up on what we've been up to over the past year, and what we've missed chatting about along the way. This is old-school Horror Etc, and we're pleased to be back on the couch - many thanks to all who have kept the beast alive. Make

"The Island of Dr. Moreau" has all the appeal of a modern day sci-fi horror story, complete with genetic manipulation and societal undertones... and yet it has been adapted for the Hollywood screen (officially) only 3 times: 1932, 1977, and the notorious all-star 1996 train wreck starring Marlon Brando and Val Kilmer (itself the focus of a new documentary Lost Souls). Join Tony and Doug as they examine the history of Moreau on screen (including the aforementioned doc) - a classic story finally

Welcome all to our Summer of Horror spectacular! In truth, we really just took the opportunity to talk at length about the terrific It Follows from promising new director David Robert Mitchell. A visual feast that harkens to material we have praised in the past including Stoker, Drag Me To Hell, The Guest, Only God Forgives and more - the positive comments are somewhat backed up by a surface analysis that demonstrates the amount of audience investment this film calls for.

Last month we lost the elder statesman of horror films following a prolific career as an actor, singer, and all-around renaissance man, but the screen legend's personal life before his ascent to celluloid icon may perhaps be the most fascinating of all chapters of his life. Please join us in a brief celebration of the life and legacy of a great figure of classic horror. It's been a lengthy hiatus so we appreciate all of you who have remained subscribed to the podcast and all of the kind words sent

....and we're back. After doing the show as long as we have, there were bound to be occasions where we called foul and made negative opinions known. This week Tony and Ted took the opportunity to challenge each other to several re-watches to give our original thoughts another evaluation... and the results were surprising. Beginning with the Nightmare on Elm Street remake through Rob Zombie's Halloween to The Day the Earth Stood Still, and everything in-between, we took a deep breath and kept an

With her mysterious smoky eyes, aquiline features and distinct diction, Barbara Steele was the reigning first woman of gothic horror cinema throughout the 1960s. From her first outing on the subject - Mario Bava's definitive Black Sunday - to her most recent headlining triumph in The Butterfly Room, Barbara Steele brings a timeless (and sinister) combination of beauty, elegance and intelligence to her portrayals of witches, vixens, demented murderesses and damsels in distress... Barry Yuen joins

This week we ring in 2015 with a catch up from the holidays, including an update on Anthony's various projects, and share some of the various genre related things we've been checking out. The main event though is a lengthy discourse on (new) Hammer's sequel The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death. It is a January release in every sense but we tried to offer up a few positives to the return of Eel Marsh House - nevertheless, anger and frustration led to us giving our honest opinions (Ted draws a line on
