Show notes

Michael sits down with Richmond legend Michael Bishop of Gwar and Kepone to discuss his focus film pick, John Boorman's 1972 classic Deliverance! Michael Bishop has an intensely thorough knowledge of the film, and he has some amazing things to say about the film, its soundtrack, and why it deserves to be in the conversation of Horror films. We also got to talk about the 80s Hardcore scene in Richmond, his early horror influences, and much more!

Show notes

Pull on your Chucks, cause this week we talked with Kody Templeman of The Lillingtons and Teenage Bottlerocket about the 80s b movie classic Night of the Creeps! We had a blast talking with Kody about Fred Dekkers schlock classic, growing up in a small town, his recent favorite horror films, and more! As we say at the top, we did have some technical issues this week, but next week we'll be back to a more consistently clean sound.

Show notes

Episode #4 is here, and this is a great one! We sat down with PJ Russo of New Jersey mutant punks Night Birds, and we talked about the 1981 classic "The Evil Dead", a film that should need no introduction! The conversation went in some unexpected directions, touching on the vast parallels of punk rock and horror cinema, Damaged City Fest, the DIY creativity of Sam Raimi, and much much more!

Show notes

Welcome to episode 3 of Toxic Schlock! This week I talked with Clayton Burgess of stoner/doom metal titans Electric Wizard and Satan's Satyrs! We had such a good time talking about Clayton's longtime fandom of Hammer Horror films, Dracula, and his focus film choice, the 1962 cult classic "Carnival of Souls". If you haven't seen this crucially underrated flick, give it a peep over on youtube and check back here to listen to us pour over it! Clayton's horror fandom touches on different corners of the genre than what is normally talked about, and this episode is a really special one!
