Evil Dead (2013) Jul 24, 2019

Show notes

This game show episode is all about one of my favorite horror remakes (or is it a reboot?), EVIL DEAD (2013). Jorge joins me as tonight's Final Girl contestant. He'll be attempting to outrun our guest slasher, his friend (and former Cocktail Party Massacre victim), Beto. Will Jorge survive our zombie slasher? Or will he end up with something evil inside him? (tee hee hee)

Check out Jorge, Beto and friends on the Boys, Booze and Blood podcast.

Interview | 'THEY'RE INSIDE' director and co-author, Jean-Paul Panelli Jul 10, 2019

Show notes

Part home invasion. Part found footage. Complete psychological thriller. The new movie They're Inside follows a group of friends who experience a serious trauma, but --as the movie unfolds -- we realize the trauma started long ago. Writer, director and producer Jean-Paul Panelli comes on the show to talk about this appropriately stylized and anxiety-inducing film, a movie that reinforces just how BIG low budget can be.

See the movie at Frida Cinema in Santa Ana, CA Friday, July 12th until Thursday, July 18th or pre-order They're Inside on iTunes.

Keep up with what's next for Masterfully Macabre Entertainment.

Friday the 13th IV: The Final Chapter (but not really) Jun 25, 2019

Show notes

In the latest deadly episode of Cocktail Party Massacre, Federico (Fede) joins me at Kilrook Manor all the way from Bologna Italy to discuss what he adamantly feels is the BEST installment in the Friday the 13th franchise: The (not so) Final Chapter. We discuss Corey Feldman's chemo look, Crispin Glover's questionable dance skills and more (all while I'm making goo-goo eyes at my Italian stallion guest). Our guest slasher is Brent, whom you may remember from as a Final Girl contestant from the Chopping Mall episode. Will Brent destroy Fede? Or will Fede 'Have a nice day'? Tune in, kiddies.

Insidious (2010) Jun 12, 2019

Show notes

Holy buckfalls! This episode has it all: Vegans, Korean YouTube culture, Olympic-style powerlifting and of course PLENTY of horror talk -- not the least of which includes three round of trivia a la Insidious, the 2010 horror flick that arguably re-energized the paranormal sub-genre. And this one's also a nail-biter, folks. Our guest slasher, Amy, plays a game of cat 'n' mouse with Final Girl contestant, Jae. Who'll survive? Listen in.

LIVE SHOW: PIECES (1982) May 16, 2019

Show notes

Wanna know the craziest way to kick off Season 3? It's Cocktail Party Massacre LIVE!

When Alamo Drafthouse Raleigh asked Brock to pick a horror movie to present for #TerrorTuesday, he chose PIECES (1982). At the film's bonkers conclusion, Brock invites movie-goers to his cocktail party. Things go awry when the party is crashed by the VHS Vortex slasher, Josh. Will the audience make it out alive? It'll take winning at trivia.

INTERVIEW | To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story Mar 29, 2019

Show notes

When most people think Kane Hodder, they think Jason Voorhees or Hatchet's Victor Crowley. They don't necessarily think 'bullied,' 'burn survivor' or 'family man.' Today, Derek Dennis Herbert, the behind-the-scenes genius of the critically acclaimed documentary To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story, joins me for a conversation about his relationship with Kane; about his production company, Masterfully Macabre Entertainment; and about his own harrowing survival story.

She's on to discuss the rock-ish horror musical, REPO! The Genetic Opera. Can she outrun our slasher by outsmarting him in three sounds of REPO! trivia? Or will she have to lip sync for her life? No. She won't. That's another show entirely.
