For the eighth episode of Hotel, The 10 Commandments Killer, the show reveals the identity - to no one's surprise - of the 10 Commandments Killer. We discover what John Lowe has been up to over the past 5 years, how James March has been involved and what lead the Countess to abduct Lowe's son, Holden. The entire episode focuses on John Lowe with only glimpses of March, the Countess, Liz Taylor and Iris. Oh, my! All this an more...

Episode 8 – The 10 Commandments Killer
The gang is all together once again to share their thoughts on the latest episode of American Horror Story: Hotel, but why - oh, God, why - did it have to be an episode dedicated solely to Wes Bentley's John Lowe. Do they not know how much Thomas and Christopher have been panning this role...and actor. The show reveals one of the weakest mysteries of its history as it slowly has John Lowe come to grips that he is, in fact, the very killer he is looking for. Spoilers: John Lowe is a pawn of James March, picking up the killings that madman started in the 1920's. Be forewarned, reception of this episode is particularly harsh - but well founded.

Daniel Radcliffe is the hunchback Igor and James McAvoy is the mad scientist in Victor Frankenstein (2015) from director Paul McGuigan. Writer Max Landis takes a "bromance" approach to re-imagining the Mary Shelley classic. While Igor and Victor decide monster needs two sets of lungs and two hearts, the film makers should have kept with a singular focus - the relationship between the title character and Radcliffe's misshapen sad but optimistic Igor. The Grue-crew share their reaction to the latest theatrical horror film.
Dave begins the HORROR NEWS OF THE WEEK segment with news about Kevin Bacon returning to Tremors, Leonardo DiCaprio grossing out Academy members with The Revenant and Patton Oswalt joins the MST3K reboot. In the What Have You Been Watching segment, the Grue-crew head back to Alexandria to discuss the mid-season finale of The Walking Dead season 6.
Co-hosts Doc Rotten, Santos (The Black Saint) Ellin Jr., Dave Dreher, Thomas Mariani and Vixen, the voice of reason, are back again this week to give you the best in horror as they recap, review and obliterate all that is horror this week!

Episode 139 – Victor Frankenstein - The Walking Dead Mid-Season Finale

On one hand the chemistry between James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe is extraordinary and worth watching but on the other the film itself, Victor Frankenstein (2015), is as misguided as the monster Frankenstein sets out to create. A terrific first act promises a great movie while the disastrous third act throws all the potential away. And the film pays for this at the box office with an embarrassing 12 place opening. The Grue-crew look at what works and what falls apart in the latest attempt to recapture the monster films of old.
Season six of The Walking Dead has had the Grue-crew discussing it on the podcast far more often than previous seasons for certain. However, the mid-season finale - a typical notable high-point for the show - leaves the Grue-crew a little flat and unimpressed. (Editor's note: Gruesome Magazine writer Joey Fittos has a different, far more positive, opinion of this episode of TWD - check it out)
Thomas steps in for Dave to share the Horror News of the Week. This week starts off with the release of the first trailer for Captain America: Civil War. We get our first glimpses of The Black Panther but where is Spider-Man. Kevin Bacon is teaming up with Blumhouse to produce and star in a new Tremors TV show. Joel Hodgson is resurrecting Mystery Science Theater 3000 with a successful Kickstarter campaign and a new cast. Academy Voters leave the high-profile screening of Leonardo DiCaprio's next film early grossed out by blood and gore in The Revenant.
