For the fourth episode of Hotel, Devil's Night, the story concentrates on John and Alex Lowe. We follow Alex as she examines her long lost son, Holden, only to encounter The Countess who has an offer she can't refuse. John, on the other hand, receives and invitation to James March's Halloween celebration, Devil's Night. Oh, my! All this an more...

This the unofficial podcast about the hit FX Horror Television show American Horror Story by fans for fans as brought to you by HorrorNewsTV.com, DocRotten.com and GruesomeMagazine.com. Now in its fifth highly anticipated season, the award winning genre show is set to push even more boundaries and break even more unimaginable taboos with Hotel.

Along with John Lowe, the party guests  include Aileen Wuornos (Lily Rabe), John Wayne Gacy (John Carroll Lynch), Jeffrey Dahmer (Seth Gabel), Richard Ramirez (Night Stalker - Anthony Ruiviviar) and the Zodiac Killer. "We are the Mount Rushmore of Murderers!" - James March.

The found-footage October favorite Paranormal Activity returns to theaters this past weekend with Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension, adding 3D to the mix to liven up the supernatural offerings. Seriously, this looks to be the perfect cinematic cocktail for HNR host Doc Rotten. But, something horrible happens, the unspeakable - the film sucks beyond belief. Thankfully for Jason Blum, however, Vixen - the voice of reason - remains vigilant for the film and the franchise.

 

Dave begins the HORROR NEWS OF THE WEEK segment with news about The Walking Dead where the shocking supposed death of one the show's main cast dominates the news. In the What Have You Been Watching segment Doc Rotten & The Black Saint from the Grue-Crew review The Last Witch Hunter.

Review: Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension (2015)  

Adding 3D to the jump-scare-filled Paranormal Activity franchise does not offer enough oomph to elevate the film beyond mediocre. Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension is a disaster, proving the age-old Jaws-proven concept of "don't show your monster." The Ghost Dimension is stuck in the rinse cycle going over the same set up and payoffs seen in the previous films without adding enough "new" to make it worthwhile. Yes, Doc is crushed. Thomas is validated. And Dave is just pissed. Vixen, however, is okay with it. D'oh.

 

What Have You Been Watching: The Last Witch Hunter (2015)  

The Black Saint, who did not see Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension, joins Doc to discuss the latest Vin Diesel vehicle, The Last Witch Hunter from director Brent Eisner. Full of captivating visuals and intriguing ideas, the film is dragged into blandness with an overly complicated plot and a smattering of needless exposition and world building. Dull and lifeless, the film fails to impress Doc and the Saint.

 

Horror News of the Week for 10/26/2015  

Dave shares the Horror News of the Week starts off with a lively, heated discussion about this week's The Walking Dead and the (questionable) fate of one of shows favorite characters. Did they? Didn't they? Are they jumping the shark? Have they created the greatest cliff-hanger in TV history? Man... Also, in the news, Dave shares information about Mick Garris bringing a promising anthology to theaters in 2016 titled Nightmare Cinema. The Grue-crew discuss the trailer for Nightmare Code. Thomas discusses the animated horror short La Noira. On the documentary front, Diabolique Magazine is behind a retrospective looking back at Hammer Horror: The Warner Bros Years.

While Christopher is off promoting his film Knob Goblins in Orlando, Thomas, Doc and Dave check quietly back into the Hotel Cortez for another episode of American Horror Story's Hotel. The story continues to build its pace and never fails to introduce unexpected, gory and controversial twists and turns. Finn Wittrock and Evan Peters are killing it as Tristan and Mr. James March as the two make a pact to up the body count. Lady Gaga is settling into her role of The Countess quite nicely, setting her desires and thirsts towards Cheyenne Jackson's Will Drake. Chloe Sevigny and Wes Bently turn up the family drama as they deal with their son's disappearance and their failing marriage. Kathy Bates and Sarah Paulson, however, steal the night as Iris and Hypodermic Sally as they plot to end the life of a cast member.

Guillermo del Toro returns to theaters with his Gothic romance horror ghost story masterpiece Crimson Peak. Visually the film is flawless, exquisite, lush and majestic. The story leaves some of the Grue-crew wondering where all the ghosts are. It is a divisive week on HNR. We know there's something amiss when Vixen has to hide her eyes only once during the film.

 

Dave begins the HORROR NEWS OF THE WEEK segment with news about Star Wars: The Force Awakens, The Walking Dead and Night of the Living Dead. One of these is not like the others. In the What Have You Been Watching segment the Grue-Crew review Goosebumps. Ermahgerd!

Subscribe – iTunes – Facebook – Stitcher 

 

Review: Crimson Peak (2015)  

Perhaps the most anticipated horror film of 2015, Guillermo del Toro's Crimson Peak is striking. The film aims for a very specific look and atmosphere achieving it with ease and confidence. The film struggles at the box office, sadly, because the marketing sold the movie as a full-fledged ghost movie. But, like Edith Cushing states early in the film, it's a story that has ghosts in it. The result is pure Guillermo del Toro, mixing classic structure with modern cinematography. This week the Grue-crew share their reviews of Crimson Peak.

 

What Have You Been Watching: Goosebumps (2015)  

Jack Black leads the cast in Rob Letterman's Goosebumps that peels back the covers of the fan-favorite horror book series for young readers. All the classic monsters are here led by the notorious and chilling Slappy the Dummy. The main creatures include the Yeti, the Wolfman and a gaggle of angry yard Gnomes. The film is fast, fun and family friendly - a great introduction to young film goers to the world of horror cinema. The Grue-crew have a blast reviewing Goosebumps.
 

Horror News of the Week for 10/19/2015  

Dave shares the Horror News of the Week starts off with the latest trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Sean Cunningham, Kane Hodder and Tom Savini have all lent their names and input to various aspects of the upcoming Friday the 13th video game currently seeking financing through crowdfunding. On TV this week, Carol kicks major ass on this week's episode of The Walking Dead in what Thomas calls "The best episode of the series." Could this be? George Romero is planning on releasing another addition of the classic Night of the Living Dead except this one has recently re-discover LOST FOOTAGE. On New Discovery American, Ralph Sarchie is leading the monster-fighting charge on The Demon Files.

"There's no place else to go and pretty soon we'll all be dead, so forget it! Enjoy yourself! Let's sing and dance while we can! Come on, blow your mind!" - the out-of-this-world 70's tagline for the cult favorite Godzilla vs Hedorah still does not approach how unbelievably bizarre this entry into the Godzilla lexicon actually is. The Black Saint and Doc Rotten tackle another groovy horror film from the 1970s.

 

Decades of Horror 1970s 
Episode 24 – Dracula vs Frankenstein (1971) 

 

Horror aficionado and film maker Bill Mulligan return to co-host Decades of Horror to take a long, loving look at the wacky Godzilla vs the Smog Monster film from 1971. Thomas Mariani is on board to share his take of the film as well. Topics discussed tonight include but are not limited to "How does Godzilla manage to fly?", "What is a Hedorah anyway?", "Is that animation from Sesame Street?", "Are those eggs, eyes or testicles?" and "Can you sing the song 'Save the Earth' in its entirety?" Not many films earn the "got to be seen to be believed" like Godzilla vs Hedorah does. Join The Black Saint, Doc Rotten, Bill and Thomas in the grooviest Godzilla story committed to film.

Episode 2 – Chutes and Ladders 

 

While Dave is off catching some Def Leppard, Thomas, Doc and Christopher check quietly back into the Hotel Cortez for another episode of American Horror Story's Hotel. The co-hosts sit down to watch the insanity of a fashion show gone bananas, a back story for James March that is beyond nuts and a menois et trois where the "vag action" is bloody unwelcome. Nothing is sacred, no one is safe and all sanity is checked at the door. This week on American Horror Story dives into the origins of the Hotel Cortez and the virus that plagues The Countess.

Welcome to a new Horror News Radio podcast, an extension of the regular weekly HNR show. Gruesome Spotlight will touch on some of the many other films we cover over at the new home for HNR, GRUESOME MAGAZINE. Each week, the HNR team and/or members of the Gruesome Magazine Grue-Crew will join Doc to talk about the films they reviewed over the past week.

 

HORROR NEWS RADIO - GRUESOME SPOTLIGHT 
Episode 001 - Deathgasm - Suffer the Little Children - The Inhabitants 

 

For the first episode of Gruesome Spotlight, Doc Rotten, Dave Dreher, The Black Saint and Thomas Mariani hang out for a little extra HNR fun to discuss the Heavy Metal / Horror hybrid DEATHGASM. The New Zealand funny frightful flick from Jason Lei Howden is one of the best of 2015. Doc also discusses a few of the films reviewed over the past week, including the Stephen King short film SUFFER THE LITTLE CHILDREN from  Corey & Haley Norman and THE INHABITANTS from Michael and Shawn Rasmussen. All is going well, then Doc admits that watched and liked the goofball monster flick featuring Michael Gross and Jamie Kennedy TREMORS 5: BLOODLINES. So, close.

 

Let us know what you think of this new idea. We want you to share if having a short supporting secondary podcast to spotlight other horror films beyond the weekly featured review on Horror News Radio a good idea. We also want to hear what kind of films you would like to have us cover on the Gruesome Spotlight podcast. Thanks for listening!

The surprisingly original and heart-felt horror satire The Final Girls hits VOD this week. The Grue-crew share their thoughts on the meta-referential comedy praising its clever use of cliches, horror movie logic and slick transitions to weave together a fun, entertaining slasher horror film. It may be must-see movie magic from director Todd Strauss-Schulson.

Review: The Final Girls (2015)  

The premise for The Final Girls has its young star Taissa Farmiga traveling into the horror film that stars her deceased mother, Malin Akerman. Taissa and her friends must survive the movie to escape and return to the real world. The film makes good on its meta themes and goes well beyond that promise along by making the internal conflict of its lead strong, heartfelt and emotional. In a rare turn, the entire Grue-crew agree, making The Final Girls a must-see winner of 2015.

 

What Have You Been Watching: The Walking Dead Season 6 (2015)  

Rick, you crazy bastard. The beginning of Season 6 of the fan favorite zombie apocalypse TV monster, The Walking Dead, sets up a fascinating problem for Rick, Morgan, Darryl and friends to overcome. There's a hoard of hungry mother-effn zombies trapped in a gorge nearby that places their life in Alexandria at risk. Rick takes charge in the way only Rick can - with tons of conflict and carnage. Wowzers! Vixen steps in to take the lead sharing what she loves and dislikes about this promising season opener.

Add in a dash of creepy white-haired children, a faceless but no less dangerous murderous monster and an unknown tie between the Ten Commandments Killer and room 64. Of course, we also get a terrific introduction to The Countess (Lady Gago) and her lover, Donovan (Matt Bomer). All this and a whole lot more make up the pilot episode of Hotel, Checking In.

Welcome to The American Horror Story Fan Podcast: Hotel. This the unofficial podcast about the hit FX Horror Television show American Horror Story by fans for fans as brought to you by HorrorNewsTV.com, DocRotten.com and GruesomeMagazine.com. Now in its fifth highly anticipated season, the award winning genre show is set to push even more boundaries and break even more unimaginable taboos with Hotel. The theme this season is the supernatural and deadly trapping of the enigmatic Hotel Cortez!

 

Returning to co-host the fan podcast are Doc Rotten and Thomas Mariani. However, this season, they are being joined by their fellow Hannibal Fan Podcast co-hosts Dave Dreher and Christopher G. Moore. Each week they will recap and review each episode. Tonight, they are looking forward to the upcoming season with a special episode ZERO show to examine the themes, characters and promise of the what is known about Hotel thus far: which actors return; who is added to the cast; and, what is all this about Lady Gaga.

And what theory could possibly come out of Doc & Chris’ warped minds to shed any light into the Hotel's visual treats of wonder and horror? Listen to the podcast and find out.
