The Quiet Ones ushers the return of Hammer Films to the theaters after the success of their last film The Woman in Black. Doc and Santos dig the Seventies feels and Vixen returns to share her thoughts on the first horror film she has seen where she did not have to cover her eyes. Yeah, there is some debate on how scary it actually is. Sigh.

 

Doc discusses the slasher film Camp Dread in this week's What Have You Been Watching segment while Dave checks in with the Horror News of the Week with news about Friday the 13th and Penny Dreadful.

 

Co-hosts Doc RottenSantos (The Black Saint) Ellin Jr., Dave Dreher and Thomas Mariani are back again this week to give you the best in horror as they recap, review and obliterate all that is horror this week!  The Black Saint's Horror Trivia Contest continues this week with the Anchor Bay Entertainment Blu-Ray Giveaway: Mr. Jones.

The Quiet Ones (2014) 
What the heck happened? A great idea and a great cast squandered for a mediocre horror film - although The Quiet Ones is a tight, entertaining little thriller. The scares are forced and few and far between but the acting is terrific with Jared Harris and Olivia Cooke getting most of the recognition. But what happened to the scares? Listen to the grue-crew investigate during the podcast to find out.

 

Horror News of the Week for 04/28/2014 
Dave Dreher  shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with his favorite horror icon making it to serial television, Jason Voorhees with a Friday the 13th show. The trailer for As Above, So Below may have been the scariest thing about The Quiet Ones - d'oh.  Kevin Smith returns to horror with his Tusk cast in tow to create Anti-Claus, as holiday horror anthology. Maybe. Santos nearly throws up with the disclaimer that Universal's Dracula Untold described as a "family fantasy film." Oh, dear. Showtime is presenting the first episode of their horror show Penny Dreadful a full month ahead of its premiere date.

 

What Have You Been Watching: Camp Dread 
Danielle Harris and Eric Roberts lead the cast for Harrison Smith's slasher film, Camp Dread. Doc steps in with this week's What Have You Been Watching segment to review the film trying to convince Santos he needs to give it a try if not for Roberts deliriously campy delivery then for the twist ending.

 

Anchor Bay Entertainment Blu-Ray Giveaway - Mr. Jones (2014) 
Horror News Radio is teaming up with Anchor Bay Entertainment to provide a killer DVD giveaway for their film Mr. Jones (2014) from director Karl Mueller featuring Sarah Jones and Jon Foster.

Looking at the carnage of blood, flesh and bones scattered on the gore-scarred ice, Will concludes "It's not an animal. It's a man who wants to be an animal." Episode 9 for NBC's hit television show Hannibal skirts the supernatural with a man who becomes a beast in Shiizakana. The show dances with the slasher formula with gruesome gory results that have Thomas, Dave, Doc and special guest Christopher G. Moore rabid out this week's visual treats.

The coolest thing about episode 9 is Will turning the tables on Hannibal proving he is indeed master fisherman, bating and nearly hooking Dr. Lector. But don't be fooled, Hannibal has a few more tricks up his sleeve quickly stepping in to coach the killer-of-the-week to his next move - attacking Will Graham. Let's just say "Even Steven" and cut to the chase!

NBC's HANNIBAL trades in subtlety for bright red blood and gore this week as the dialog takes a minor pinch according to Thomas and guest co-host, director Christopher G. Moore.  Regardless, we are all treated to another marvelous, thrilling and engaging episode as we inch closer to that dramatic confrontation between Hannibal and Jack Crawford heavily hinted at during this season's opening shots. The anticipation is a killer.

As always we want your feedback so drop us a line at thomas@horrornewstv.com or dave@horrornewstv.com or docrotten@horrornewstv.com and we’ll talk next week as we continue to bring you our recipe for fear with HORROR NEWS TV HANNIBAL FAN PODCAST.

The Raid 2 is pure genius with its action, choreography and direction.

The Raid 2 (2014) 
Rama (Iko Uwais) returns to kick serious ass with Gareth Evans' action thriller The Raid 2. The action and thrills are breathtaking with neck breaking speed and agility. It is astounding to watch. Brian Salisbury, from Oneofus.net and Film School Rejects, joins the grue-crew to discuss the pacing, the plot and the characters in depth and detail. Everyone loves Hammer Girl and try to figure out if the film has more in common with Kill Bill or Bruce Lee's Game of Death.

 

Horror News of the Week for 04/21/2014 
Dave Dreher  shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with more Godzilla news and footage from Wonder Con. Dave has the hots for the new Santanico Pandemonium from El Rey's hit television show From Dusk Til Dawn. The next genre entry from Bluhouse, Jessabelle, get its poster, stills and trailer. Dave is impressed by the trailer for the final season of HBO's True Blood. And, he is equally impressed with the the line of Jason Voorhees Horror Buddies from Horror Decor.

 

What Have You Been Watching: Game of Thrones 
Red Weddings, Purple Weddings and Ned Stark top the discussion about Game of Thrones asThomas and Doc ramble and recap the first three seasons. Meanwhile, Santos, a bit lost, wonders when Billy Idol is going to appear singing White Wedding. Sigh.

Jack inquires of Will  as episode 8 opens on the pair fishing on a frozen lake.  "You make him come to you" Will explains "and I'm a good fisherman." Join your hosts Dave Dreher and Doc Rotten as Thomas takes this week off. He sure misses some great fun. The guts flow freely and the metaphors build tension to a fever pitch as Doc and Dave discuss it all. Settle in and get ready to be eviscerated.

Will is a free man and back under the care of the good doctor but who is analyzing who in this cat and mouse game of “who knows what about whom”.  Dr. Bloom and Dr. Lecter continue their “unholy union” and it’s a not a good episode to be a horse.

In easily the most visceral and disturbing episode yet HANNIBAL raises the bar and the gore level for network horror television.  Ride along with Doc and Dave as they breakdown this weeks “must see” episode.

In many cases, working on an independent film requires its creators to wear many hats. It is often a necessity of time, money and creative control to tackle as many roles as possible to get these projects completed reliably, quickly and on time. As the creative force behind White Lotus Productions, Lou Simon finds herself steering the ship as writer, director, producer, editor, anything and everything that she is called upon to do.

With each episode, the show’s host, Doc Rotten, spotlights a director, an actor, a screenwriter, an effects artists, a film maker conquering hurdles and barriers to get their films made, to follow their passion, to make horror films.

She shares how her background outside of film provides her with a unique approach to filming and marketing her projects.

Oculus (2014) 
While Doc and Dave agree that Mike Flanagan's chiller Oculus works as a great introductory horror film for non-horror fans, or a great "date movie," Santos and Thomas are not as supportive. The review heats up as the two sides discuss the film's successes and failures. An irritated Santos wants nothing to do with it; however, Dave shares he and his wife enjoyed the film greatly - his wife, who rarely likes horror films, wants to see it again. The film is creepy, full of atmosphere with terrific performances from its cast providing the film with a captivating set up but a divisive conclusion. The film is garnering strong reviews outside of HNR as it comes in at number 3 in the weekend box office, grossing $12 million in the U.S.

 

Top 5 Killer Inanimate Objects in Horror Films
Jumping off the haunted mirror in Oculus, Thomas leaps in to collect his top 5 killer inanimate objects in horror films:

 

  • House (1977) 
  • Rubber (2010) 
  • Christine (1983) 
  • Death Bed: The Bed That Eats People (1977) 
  • Maximum Overdrive (1986) 

 

Horror News of the Week for 04/14/2014 
Dave Dreher  shares the Horror News of the Week beginning with Doc's request to check out the "Muto" roar of the opposing kaiju from Godzilla (2014). Thomas is curious about the rumors that Johnny Depp may be secretly starring in Kevin Smith's horror opus, Tusk (2015). Dave is horrified with the sudden and maddening closure of FearNet by Comcast. Boo. Hiss. The documentary Never Sleep Again is getting a book treatment. And Netflix announces the second season of Eli Roth's Hemlock Grove.

As Fatal Pictures begins work on its fourth horror short Heir, producer Zach Green and director Richard Powell are bringing back many familiar faces from their first three films, including Worm and Familiar: cinematographer Michael Jari Davidson (Familiar); special effects team The Butchershop; and lead actor Robert Nolan. This specific group of talented film makers make up a tight nit group of artists Zach and Richard trust with their vision. Each individual is committed to creating the best film possible as evident by a history of award wining films, a successful Kickstarter crowd funding campaign and advanced early buzz on the script.

 

Welcome to another episode of The Future of Horror, an interview podcast featuring new, upcoming talent in horror, The show is a sibling podcast to Horror News Radio, the official HorrorNews.Net podcast. With each episode, the show’s host, Doc Rotten, spotlights a director, an actor, a screenwriter, an effects artists, a film maker conquering hurdles and barriers to get their films made, to follow their passion, to make horror films.

 

Producer Zach Green joins Doc to provide a peak behind the curtain into the world of producing one of their films, what it takes to see the project from its conception all the way through to completion including appearing on Fearnet's online short library. Zach shares the emotions and logic behind handing off the editorial duties to someone else, a skill he is both educated for and personally reveres. He speaks to the talent behind Fatal Pictures films beginning with his friend and co-owner Richard Powell and continuing on to actors Robert Nolan and Bill Oberst  Jr. He reveals how early networking benefits a film before it even before the director steps behind the camera building strong relationships both with professionals and with fans.

NBC's Hannibal episode 5, Mukozuke, brings on the dialog: "He is the devil, Mr. Graham. He is smoke. You'll never catch the ripper. He won't be caught. If you want him you'll have to kill him." is just one of the many highlights discussed in this week's podcast. Join your hosts Thomas Mariana, Dave Dreher and Doc Rotten as this week they welcome special guest, director Christopher G. Moore, a self-proclaimed super fan who brings his exciting insight into the fold and adds a new dimension to the discussion.

HORROR NEWS TV HANNIBAL FAN PODCAST
Episode 5  – Mukozuke

Episode five continues the shows trend of exposing us all to extraordinary imagery while still maintaining one of the best-written story lines on TV.  Last weeks cliffhanger is dealt with in short order and in spectacular fashion thrusting us into a story-line that is filled with twists, turns and shocks that in the end puts a major character into a situation we never imagined could happen so early in this riveting second season.  It all adds up to yet another extraordinary episode and leaves us all wondering what else Hannibal and the crew could possibly have in store for us next week.

As always we want your feedback so drop us a line at thomas@horrornewstv.com or dave@horrornewstv.com or docrotten@horrornewstv.com and we’ll talk next week as we continue to bring you our recipe for fear with HORROR NEWS TV HANNIBAL FAN PODCAST.
