Burnt Offerings Horror Podcast: Recent Episodes
Burnt Offerings Horror Podcast
Burnt Offerings is a podcast featuring horror movie, and music, news and reviews. Hosts Jared and Steve discuss horror films and whatever bands and releases they have been jamming all while downing a fine selection of cheap beer and malt liquor. Steve is a self proclaimed '80s slasher fan who doesn't enjoy much of anything that came out after 1994. If he's not watching Hide and Go Shriek while downing a 40oz of Mickeys and blasting Fister, then he's probably beating Friday the 13th for the NES in under 20min for the 1,000th time. Jared likes his movies gory, grainy, and with a good amount of sleaze. Anything from '80s slashers, to Italian giallos and Japanese death tapes. He enjoys watching a stack of tapes while spinning records, mostly Japanese raw punk, raw grind, or almost any NWOBHM band, and drinking a few beers. Catch us at a convention in the Midwest.
This episode we are talking about the 1980 Ulli Lommel supernatural possession ghost story slasher THE BOOGEY MAN. Apparently, Ulli has multiple people in his head and they all wanted to make a different movie.
Hard to believe Burnt Offerings has not covered a cannibal film until now. This episode we chop it up and chew the fat about Umberto Lenzi's 1980 release EATEN ALIVE! Part cannibal film and part Jonestown-esque cult. EATEN ALIVE! is a a solid predecessor to to Lenzi's cult favorite CANNIBAL FEROX which was released the following year.So, grab some Flavor-Aid and cobra venom and tune in.
It's October, so we had to come out of hiatus to record a new episode before Halloween. We are taking our first stab at a Don Dohler slab that oozes with atmosphere; his 1980 release FIEND.So, fill your chalice, put on your crushed velvet smoking jacket, and tune in.
We are taking it back to '89 talking about one of the best splatter films to come out of Germany. Olaf Ittenbach's BLAST PAST. When Olaf released this SOV gem, he showed just what could be done with this genre.So, tune in, drop out, and have some beers with your breakfast.
Who says you need buckets of blood and gratuitous nudity for a slasher to be good? Well, a lot of people, actually. But, they are wrong! We are back and talking about the 1982, often over looked, slasher THE HOUSE ON SORORITY ROW. This movie is an example of the right way to pull inspiration from other movies without blatantly ripping them off.So, kill your house mother, crack some cold ones, and tune in for this weeks installment of BURNT OFFERINGS!
What do you get when Joe D'Amato and George Eastman team back up after ANTHROPOPHAGUS to make an American style slasher? The masterpiece that is ABSURD (81). We are marking our return by talking about this absolute classic of Italian cinema. We also hit you with some bands to checkout, suggestions on what to watch so you don't have to think, and a summer time announcement.So, crack some cold ones, turn on, tune in, and drop out.
Our 5 month hiatus is over and we are talking about the 1988 home invasion/slasher/monster movie/revenge film GROTESQUE starring Linda Blair, Donna Wilkes, and Tab Hunter. This bad boy can fit so many genres.So, turn off City Baby Attacked By Rats, cracks some beers, and tune in.
This episode we are talking about Bret McCormick's Super 8 splatter classic THE ABOMINATION. If you haven't checked this one out, now is the time. Coughed up tumors, evangelical pastors, and the best dream sequence / gore reel money can buy.
So, crack some cans and turn on, tune in, and drop out.
In December, a life changing event happened which delayed this episode from being uploaded until now. But, here it is, and we are talking about the ever gritty, 1984 release, COMBAT SHOCK. Probably one of the most straight forward and depression movies that Troma has ever released.Crack some cans and enjoy the soothing sounds of Burnt Offerings.
This episode we are joined by the husband and wife team of INDEPENDENT AMERICAN PICTURES, Anthony Moran & Rebecca Solano, to talk about their newest splatter filled horror film LET US IN!
This movie is what independent low budget film making is all about. It features some familiar faces from the Detroit punk and metal scene, as well as amazing FX work by local favorite James Bell.
Tune in and hear some great conversations as we chop it up with two true grit film makers. And, if you are in the Detroit area, be sure to catch the premiere screening at the UFO Factory on Saturday, October 15th!
SUPPORT FILMS MADE IN DETROIT!!!
It is October and we are joined by Detroit's heavy metal miscreants ACID WITCH to talk about their freshly released album ROT AMONG US! We've had them on separately but, this is the first time getting the masterminds behind the witch, Slasher Dave and Tim Shagrat, on together.
Aside from the new album we also bounce around talking about past releases, band history, a little on Detroit ghost stories and true crime, as well as what makes a good horror movie shirt and, there are no exceptions!
Be sure to crack some beers, spark a joint, tune in, and drop out!
Our four month hiatus has come to an end and we are celebrating by talking about the best super 8 film ever made; Leif Jonker's DARKNESS! It is criminal that this is the only movie Leif made. You would be hard-pressed to find a more splatter filled vampire movie!
We are back and dusting the cobwebs off with this episode. Talking about the movies you go back to time-and-time again. The ones that are like a warm blanket when you are hungover or in a dark place.
Are any of your comfort movies on our list? Listen to find out. If they are not, be sure to let us know what some of your favorite comfort films are.
Uploading an episode 3 months after recording it isn't that bad, right?
Life got flipped turned upside down so, we took a little extended hiatus. Probably should have uploaded the episode before we did that.
Anyway, we are back talking about the 1980 film FADE TO BLACK. We also touch on other movies and bands we have been digging that would be worth checking out, as well.
So, crack some beers, pack some bowls, and tune in.
We are back with our first guest in over 2 years! Our long time friend Zach Gibson, drummer for the relentless grind band SHIT LIFE, as well as past and current drummer for a ridiculous amount of other bands, is joining us to talk about arguably one of the most controversial movies released; A SERBIAN FILM.
Love it or hate it, the fact that this movie is still able to piss off non-horror fans, as well as horror fans, 11 years after it's release is kind of impressive. And, there is no one better to talk about this slice of cinema with us than one of it's bigger proponents.
Tune in and smoke em if you got em!
This week we are talking about one of the seminal Joe D'Amato films; his 1980 release ANTHROPOPHAGUS (The Grim Reaper, The Beast, Man-Eater, The Grim Ripper, Antropophagus). This one ranks high on our list of Italian horror, with good reason.
Be sure to tune-in to this gut munching episode.
Halloween is almost upon us. Instead of doing the normal Halloween themed movie, this year we thought we would talk about one of the early films inspired by NOTLD, which has nothing but atmosphere and spooky vibes; Amando de Ossorio's 1972 classic TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD.
Although, this was dubbed and released in North America, it is definitely better to avoid that version and find the original Spanish release. We touch on the many reasons why in this episode.
We also give a run down of movies we've been watching, bands we've been jamming, and recent activities in the Burnt Offerings camp. And, if you haven't heard, ACID WITCH has a new release! Go scoop that shit up.
It is October and we couldn't be more stoked here at the Burt Offerings manor. Kicking the best season off with Tobe Hooper's 1981 carnival catastrophe THE FUNHOUSE.
We also touch on which Michael Myers mask was the worst, and the joys of 80s and 90s cable.
So, rise and grind, and kick off October with some Burnt Offerings!
We are back talking about the 1989 low budget, Midwest zombie flick THE DEAD NEXTDOOR. Filmed in Akron, Ohio, and banked rolled by Sam Raimi, this shot on super8 movie is worth checking out.
We had a technical difficulty so, the audio is a little sub-par on this recording but, it's not horrible.
We are back and delving into the Mattei & Fragasso 1980 virus zombie flick HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD (Virus, Zombie Inferno, Zombie Creeping Flesh, Dusk of the Dead, and many many more). If you dig al the spaghetti zombie/cannibal flicks that were popping out of Italy in the '80s, you should already be a fan of this movie.
We go over some bands that are absolutely worth checking out, Steve gives a Cheers run down, and we even touch on the finer points of Howard the Duck.
Crack some beers, hit your bong, and tune in.
Hey! We finally got off our lazy asses and uploaded our last episode.
Back when we first started we would sometimes do three movies an episode and spend more time BSing than talking about the movies. So, we decided to start taking movies from those episodes, that we feel didn't get the attention that they deserved, and revisiting them.
The first one is Fulci's 1980 release CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD (Gates of Hell). This was only briefly touched on in an earlier episode and it 100% deserves more attention.
On this episode we dig in to the 1981 slasher/american giallo NIGHT SCHOOL (Terror Eyes). This is probably the closest you will get to an Italian giallo outside of Italy. We also give a sneak peak to the Mannequin 2 segment Steve will be doing each episode. Add in some music and movie suggestion and you have a well rounded episode.
Heads roll, mannequins roll, crack a beer and check it out.
This week we are digging into our list of sequels that deserve some mention. We are all over the map with this one; horror, '80s comedy, action. Nothing is off limits.
What's up everyone!? Burnt Offerings is getting back to business as usual. Cheap beer, cheap gore, and not so cheap tapes.
This week we are talking about the Lamberto Bava directed 1980s horror MACABRE (The Frozen Terror). Based off a supposed true story, this is a decent first solo effort by Bava.
Aside from the normal list of bands and movies we always give, we also did our first surprise live stream while recording this episode. Cheers to those that found it and tuned in!
This episode we are back in the realm of 80s slashers. Talking about the 1986, 'Oh no. Our prank, which was totally not a prank, went horribly wrong and we almost killed someone', slasher SLAUGHTER HIGH. Out of the three better known movies based around April Fools day, this is one of the tops.
Per usual we also hit you with a list of bands worth checking out, as well as some movies that we have been watching.
So, grab your favorite vide and tune in.
We are dipping back into the Lenzi catalog for this one. Talking about his 1975 giallo EYEBALL. Red herrings, red ponchos, red gloved killer; this one has it all.
What have we been up to? Well, we are updating our merch starting with the new shirts we just put up in our store. What have we been watching and jamming? Tune in and find out.
This episode we are trying to make sense of the cluster fuck that is ZOMBIE 3. Between subpar scripts, Fulci's early exit from the directors chair, and multiple fill in directors this movie was destined to be the splatter mess that it is. ZOMBIE 3 may not be the sequel we wanted but, it's the sequel we deserved.
How has it taken us this long to talk about this movie!? We are talking about one of our favorite Lenzi films, 1980s NIGHTMARE CITY (City of the Walking Dead, Incubo). This is THE quintessential radiation infected non-zombie vampire movie.
We also hit you with a handful of things worth checking out music and movie wise.
We are kicking in 2021 by talking about the 1986, filmed in Italy set in America, slasher BODY COUNT directed by RUGGERO DEODATO. This one seems to slip under a lot of radars and should definitely be checked out.
We are delivering our Thanksgiving episode a little late this year. We are talking about the 1981 slasher HOME SWEET HOME (aka Slasher in the House)starring Body By Jake himself Jake Steinfeld.
How did we spend our Thanksgiving? What bands have we been spinning? Who was the second gunman on the grassy knoll? Tune in to find out these answers and more!
Technical difficulties be damned! We are back talking about the 1995 Swedish splatter comedy EVIL ED. If you like Dead Alive and Evil Dead 2, this is right up your alley. We also hit on some bands worth checking out if you can pronounce their names.
Lets end summer with one last summer time slasher. The 1988 Italian American slasher WELCOME TO SPRING BREAK (aka Nightmare Beach). This movie is a decent blend of elements from both the Italian giallo and the American slasher wrapped up nicely with a score by Claudio Simonetti.
We also on Halloween foods, what we've been watching, and a few bands to dig into.
This week we are grabbing another slab from the SOV stack. Talking about the 1987 one off LUNCH MEAT. Not the best SOV film but, definitely not the worst, and definitely a loved by both of us.
We also hit you with some awesome video store memories, try to crack the case of 'what tape did Jared rent that his dad made him return?', and gt into a few musical debates.
So, order a pizza, crack some beers, and enjoy the show.
What happens when you make a movie that is behind the times in some aspects, and ahead of the times in others? It gets shelved for 4 years. Which is the case for the 1976 movie SAVAGE WEEKEND (Killer Behind the Mask, The Upstate Murders).
In this episode, we discuss this often overlooked entry in the early slasher catalog. We also throw out some bands worth checking out, maybe go on a tangent or two, and Jared might have had more than a few.
Shit still sucks, but we are back.
We are clearing the cobwebs by talking about the 1986 Canadian film CITY IN PANIC (aka The AIDS Murders). Aside from talking about, what some would call, a controversial movie, we also hit you with a list of bands worth checking out as well as what we have been watching while on quarantine.
We are taking it back to 1973 to talk about the Rodger Watkins THE LAST HOUSE ON DEAD END STREET (The Fun House, Cuckoo Clocks of Hell). This movie had a layer of mystery surrounding it for 20 plus years. Rumors of it being a product of the Mexican Mafia, to it being a legit snuff film made their way around until the year 2000.
We also touch on our normal bands and movies we've been checking out. You should check em out too. Either way, crack a cold one and tune in.
It's the time of year for Hallmark cards, shitty chocolates, and scorned childhood crushes trying to kill you in a hospital.
This episode we are talking about the 1982 Valentine's Day slasher X-RAY (Hospital Massacre, Be My Valentine...Or Else, Ward 13). We ended up doing things a little different by jumping right into talking about the movie instead of boring you with our personal tales.
For those like like our witty chit-chat; we saved that for the end. We got bands worth checking out, movies worth watching, and Steve found that the claw is the law.
On this episode, we eventually get around to talking about the 1988 Spanish/U.S. slasher EDGE OF THE AXE. Whether you just picked up the Arrow blu-ray, or are watching it on VHS like your friends Jared and Steve, be sure to tune in and listen to our completely sober review.
We also got a list of records, movies, and bands that are coming out of hibernation.
It's 2020 and we are are talking about another Italian film. This time around it is Fulci's 1990 meta horror A CAT IN THE BRAIN. There are a lot of mixed reviews about this one. And, even though we might have been a little too drunk to break down everything we could in this movie, we are both big fans of it.
So, get on board the Perversion and lets go for a ride.
Another random hiatus is over and our Christmas episode is finally uploaded after the new year.
This year we talk about the sleazy holiday classic, CHRISTMAS EVIL. This one didn't seem to get talked about much until recent years. Which, is a shame, because it is one of the best Christmas horror movies made.
Besides all that, we hit you with a bunch of bands to check out. And, Steve does his top releases of 2019.
The great white north has given us a shit ton of great horror movies. THE GATE may not be the best. But, it is definitely up there. And, if you had HBO in the early '90s, chances are you saw this movie more than a few times.
Aside from opening gate ways to hell, we recap some killer shows we caught as well as offer up some bands that are worth a listen. So, crack some beers, and tune in. Sacrifyx is law!
Another All Hallows Eve is upon us. Lets summon some demos and party with the dead!
This episode we are chatting about the 1988, Halloween party time movie, NIGHT OF THE DEMONS. This is a movie you either like or love. Because, there is nothing to hate.
So, once all the razor blade apples have been handed out, and you take care of your sour balls, be sure to end the night with us.
How do you get everyone to be pissed off by the end of your movie? Reveal that every death was fake and all part of your rich friends business idea.
We are talking about the 1986 slasher, APRIL FOOL'S DAY. Even with the lack of on-screen kills, and gore, this movie still has some good things going for it. Namely, the cast.
So, crack open a Hamm's and tune in.
Buddy's got an axe to grind, and we have beers to drink. This week we are talking about the 1987 slab SLAUGHTERHOUSE. This one is definitely a product of it's time. Coming out when the slasher genre was all but exhausted. But, showing that is was not completely dead.
Aside from our academic level film critic, we also give you some tunes to listen to. We might go on another remake tangent after watching the new Black Christmas remake trailer. Tune in to find out.
It took us 2 years, but we finally got to Bava's A BAY OF BLOOD (Twitch of the Death Nerve, Carnage, Blood Bath). Where would the American slasher be if this movie was never made? Probably pretty close to where it now. But, a certain franchise would be a little different, I would bet.
Besides talking about the grandfather of the American slasher, we also run down a list of bands we've been spinning, as well as a list of movies worth checking out. Also, what 90s and early 2000s shows just had new specials released? Tune in a find out. Or, Google it.
The gruesome twosome is back! We are picking up where we left off and talking about the 80s slasher THE DORM THAT DRIPPED BLOOD (Pranks, Death Dorm). Who makes their first appearance in this film? And, what other movie, that we already covered, does this one remind us of?
We also drop some bands and a list of other good stuff worth checking out.
Tune in and feel free to reach out with any questions or comments.
We hope you did all your calisthenics. Your lungs. Your squat thrusts. Because this week we are talking about the 1984 athletic slasher FATAL GAMES. This movie kind of reminds us of another slasher. But, we just can't put our finger on it. Oh well. I'm sure they are nothing alike.
Anyway, we also talk about some bands we saw and some bands worth checking out.
Is winning worth killing for? I mean; probably. Tune in to find out if this movie is worth killing for.
We are taking a trip back to the sleazy streets of '70s New York and talking about the 1979 Abel Ferrara release THE DRILLER KILLER. We also give our opinion on the PET SEMETARY remake.
So, pull out your favorite Roosters album and tune in. Just make sure to watch those long distance calls.
Random hiatus is over and we are talking about what is arguably one of Argento's last really good movies; 1987's OPERA. He went back to his roots and showed he could still do it. Too bad that didn't really last into the 90s, that much.
What were we up to on our little break? What awesome bands are we going to try talking you into checking out? Tune in and find out.
We are back talking about, yet, another 80s slasher. This time it is 1984s THE INITIATION. This movie seemed to have slipped under a lot of peoples radar. Also, there seems to be pretty mixed reviews among the people that have seen it. We touch on the reasoning behind both of those.
We also hit you with a list of bands to check out along with thoughts on a new horror movie in theaters.
This week we are talking about a Fulci film that tends to get overlooked. Possibly, because it is sandwiched between, almost, everyone of his heavy hitters. THE BLACK CAT is a retelling of an Edgar Allan Poe story. How faithful to the source material is the movie? You will have to tune in to find out.
We also have all standard band and movie recommendations. We know that's what you really listen to us for.
This episode we are talking about the 1973 giallo that lent quite a bit to '80s slashers. We are talking about Sergio Martino's TORSO.
Aside from leather gloves and hacksaws, we have flooded basements, King Diamond, and plenty of other bands and movies that should be checked out. So, tune in and get lost in the psychosexual mind.
BE CAREFUL, SON! THAT THING IS LOADED!
We are talking about Buddy Coopers 1984 slasher one-off, THE MUTILATOR (aka FALL BREAK)on this episode. This movie has everything an 80s slasher fan could ask for: sub-par acting, characters you can't wait to die, and ,of course, plenty of well done deaths.
In addition to that, we both hit you with a list of bands you should be checking out, along with talking about the 1991 biker movie STONE COLD and William Forsythe for, probably, longer than we should have. So, be sure to tune in and let us know what you think.
We are joined this week by are friend Slasher Dave to talk about one of the biggest franchises in horror; A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET.
We touch on the good, and not so good, parts of a franchise that may have made a few questionable decisions along its way. There are a few controversial opinions as well as a few Slasher Dave / Acid Witch updates.
Definitely not one to be missed. So, drink some beers, smoke a bowl, and tune in. Just don't fall asleep.
This episode we will be talking about the 1974 slice of Spanish celluloid LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE aka THE LIVING DEAD AT THE MANCHESTER MORGUE, BREAKFAST AT THE MANCHESTER MORGUE, DON'T OPEN THE WINDOW, ZOMBI 3 - DA DOVE VIENI?, DO NOT PROFANE THE SLEEP OF THE DEAD, and about 10 other names.
We also have a good amount of bands that you should check out. Also, this might be the first episode were Jared does not mention a single punk band.
How many releases does POSSESSED have? And, was Jared able to change his opinion of HALLOWEEN 4?
It's 2019. You're not dead, yet. So, grab a few beers and tune in to BURNT OFFERINGS PODCAST!
The hangover is gone and we are in the year of Akira and Blade Runner with a new episode of drunken horror depravity.
This episode we are talking about the 1980, 'what if Halloween was on a train', slasher TERROR TRAIN.
Steve has plenty of death metal to recommend, while Jared supplies the same old Japanese punk and metal that you've come accustomed to.
So, be sure to tune in before catching your flight to Neo-Tokyo.
It's Christmas time, again. And we decided to talk about one of the best movies pertaining to it. Bob Clark's 1974 masterpiece BLACK CHRISTMAS.
This movie is not just good for a Christmas film. This is the movie that built on what PEEPING TOM and PSYCHO did, and laid the ground work for what slashers became in the 80s.
Enjoy.
We can't believe it took us 41 episodes before we talked about this fucking movie. That is almost criminal.
We are back and talking about the 1980, sleazy, NY masterpiece MANIAC. Just like many of the films that came out around this time, MANIAC dealt with a lot of controversy upon its release. And, we touch on close to all of them.
Steve lists his top 5 albums of 2018 and Jared gives you some Japanese punk that you should check out.
So, crack a beer, spark a j, and tune in.
Mini hiatus is over and we are back with the first volume of something we are calling CINEMATIC DIGESTION. This is where we take 2 movies by 2 directors and compare them. First up is Argento's INFERNO and Fulci's THE BEYOND.
We kind of go off the rails a little bit. But, for a hastily thought up idea, with not a lot of preparation time, that is to be expected. So, tune and check out our first entry into something that will only get better.
It's finally that time of the year. Pumpkins, ghosts, and graveyards on lawns.
This episode is full of Halloween frights and delights. We talk about our Halloween memories from when we were young, what we would watch around Halloween as a kid, and things we got, and didn't get, when trick or treating. We also are talking about the 1988 satanic slasher HACK O' LANTERN (aka HALLOWEEN NIGHT, DEATH MASK, THE DAMNING).
So, lock your doors, shutter your windows, grab some beers, and tune in.
We are back with crystal clear audio and as chill as can be.
This episode we are talking about one of a handful of films that rode the coat tails of ZOMBIE's success; 1980s ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST. Although this movie does share a lot with Fulci's iconic film, it does throw in a few unique elements that weren't really done at the time.
This week we are taking a trip to Italy and talking about the 1981 zombie film BURIAL GROUND. We also have a plethora of bands and other movies that we touch on and recommend.
We had some technical difficulties that were not discovered until after we recorded. So, the audio quality leaves a lot to be desired. But, if any of you have heard some of our early episodes, you will be okay with it.
How many different names was BURIAL GROUND released under? Was Peter Bark in a Syfy original movie? Hit that play button to find out the answers to these questions and more.
Horrorhound is over, Cinema Wasteland is not quite here, and it is back to business as usual.
This time around we are talking about Jack Sholder's 1982 slasher ALONE IN THE DARK. The one with the cover art that has been done countless times. Steve also gives you a slew of bands to check out. And, we both actually watched a few newer movies. Holy shit!
We have awoken from our slumber and returned from HORRORHOUND WEEKEND.
This episode we are joined by our good friends in 40OZ OF HORROR as we throw our normal format out the window and just have drunken conversations. But,I will say that by the end we will all be ordering Colonel Adams at the bar.
We are taking a trip to the great white north to talk about the '83 gem CURTAINS. What it is, what it could have been, and why it is what it is. What ever your opinion of this movie is; there is a reason it is one of Will Rahmer's favorite movie.
So, lace up those skates and join us by the pond. Don't forget your case of Molson OV.
You ready to get slimy? We are talking Greg Lamberson's 1988 low-budget classic SLIME CITY. If you like your gore cheap and your yogurt Himalayan, than you will dig this slab of slime.
Aside from that, we have a few bands to mention as well giving the run down of our Horrohound episode that we are doing with the 40oz OF HORROR crew in just over a month. So strap in, strap on and take the ride.
If you like your movies low budget with a good amount of sleaze, than this is the episode for. We are joined with our friend Tim (Acid Witch, Shitfucker) to talk about Hugh Gallagher's Gore Trilogy (Gorgasm, Gorotica, Gore Whore).
The beers flowed heavy, and the conversation winds through many topics. So, grab some beers and get comfortable; this is a good one, kiddies.
We are back to our normal shenanigans, this episode. What do you get when you combine no experience making movies with great FX work? One amazing movie.
This week we are talking about the 1983 low budget film THE DEADLY SPAWN. Exactly how small was the budget? What rock star owns a severed head from the movie? And, what scene made Steve laugh so hard he had to rewind the movie? Tune in to find out.
Stop learning about those dead writers. Metal Movie Massacre Vol. 2 is upon us. This time around we touch on not one, but two movies by John Fasano; ROCK 'N' ROLL NIGHTMARE (87), and BLACK ROSES (88). We also leave the 80s for only, probably, the 3rd time to talk about the often over looked SHOCK EM DEAD.
What movies do we like the best? Is ROCK 'N' ROLL NIGHTMARE on the same level as TROLL 2? How the fuck does SHOCK EM DEAD end? Tune in to find the answer to most of these questions.
How has it taken this long for us to do a show about heavy metal horror movies!? Seems like it would have been top of the list. Well, here it is. Vol. 1 of our Metal Movie Massacre series.
In this episode we are talking about TERROR ON TOUR (80), ROCKTOBER BLOOD (84), and TRICK OR TREAT (86). These 3 movies are quintessential heavy metal horror viewing.
So, put on your denim and leather, and tune in to this headbanger of an episode.
We are posted up at MOTORCITY NIGHTMARES for this episode. Showed up late, so we had some catching up to do.
Other than location, it is business as usual. We talk about 1989 fitness favorite DEATH SPA (Just how many movies could this plot be broken into?) as well as recommend a hefty amount of bands worth checking out.
Drinks were flowing, and we avoided contact with anything walking dead related. So, it was a good night. Drink up, smoke down, and tune in.
The episode that was delayed is now upon us. We have such tales to tell you. Tales of Cinema Wasteland, Sleep, arrests, and partying.
This episode we talk about the, often over looked, 1982 slasher GIRLS NITE OUT. We touch on our weekend at Cinema Wasteland and the fun times we had. How many arrests were there, again? We also talk about sleeping at the Sleep show.
Be sure to crack a few beers, eat a few edibles, and melt away while tuning in to this installment of BURNT OFFERINGS PODCAST.
This week we are back talking about the 1982 Spanish masterpiece PIECES. We also review a new film coming out from director Dylan Reynolds called 4/20 MASSACRE and Jared realizes he really needs to work on reviewing things. Should probably write things down. I don't know.
Aside from all the movie talk, we touch on a few bands that we highly recommend you check out. Also, we are not bad editors, Jared's laptop is just a piece of shit, so the recording seems to skip a few times. It may be time for an upgrade. But, fuck it. Grab a beer, sit back, and enjoy the show.
This week we are back to talk about the 1981 release NIGHTMARES IN A DAMAGED BRAIN (aka BLOOD SPLASH, NIGHTMARE). This movie has a little bit of everything that is great. It has gore a plenty as well as a small helping of sleaze. Also, FISTER released a new track from there upcoming album, and we finally have a website. Tune in, drink up, and drop out.
This week we are guest free and talking about the splatter fest that is Olaf Ittenbach's 1992 release THE BURNING MOON. This movie is held in high regard for a reason, we will tell you that. We are a little light on the music talk, this episode, but there is a few mentions.
We have our buddy Kerby with us to talk about his favorite franchise, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. We also touch on Midwest grind and talk about Kerby's upcoming west coast shows with his band GIRTH, leading to L.A. Speedfest. There were drinks. There were edibles. There were good times had by most.
This is it, everybody. The first episode with a guest co-host. We are are joined with our good friend Mike (Acid Witch, Temple of Void, Failed, Nuke)to discuss a majority of the PHANTASM series. The beer flows and the conversation twists its way through horror films and Judas Priest. Tune in if you're a fan of good movies, good music, and getting good and drunk.
This week we are talking about the, often overlooked, 1989 slasher INTRUDER. We recommend a plethora of bands to check out as well as touch on what movies we have been watching recently. The energy level is high in this episode, folks.
Lets take a trip into the Mountains of Oregon as we discuss 1981's JUST BEFORE DAWN. Viewed by many as one of the best backwoods slashers; not to be confused with camp slashers. We also give a run down on what we have been up to and drop a few bands worth your time.
We are back with more of what you tolerate. This week we dig into the holiday slasher that caused all the suburban moms to clench their pearls. We are, of course, talking about the 1984 release SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT.
We are back with tales of cheap gore. In this installment of Burnt Offerings we chit-chat about the shot in '83 but released in '87 slasher, BLOOD RAGE. We also talk about seeing John Carpenter, and a few releases including the new ELECTRIC WIZARD album.
We don't really have a specific topic in this episode. We talk about the new ACID WITCH record 'EVIL SOUND SCREAMERS', we touch on UMBERTO LENZI'S passing what films of his we have been watching, and we discuss / rant about peoples views on original films when a remake is made. I don't think this is the first time this topic has come up, and it probably won't be the last. Aside from that, there are other music and horror things peppered in to round out this mixed offerings.
We are back from our month off with such sites to show you. We talk about seeing WITCHTRAP (the band from Columbia, not the movie.), going to Cinema Wasteland, and also the FISTER show on Jared's birthday. After all that catching up we dive into our discussion on the first 8 FRIDAY THE 13TH movies. Why only the first 8? You'll have to listen to find out. This is a long one, ladies and gentlemen, so be sure to grab a case of beer, maybe a few cans of Jolt Cola, some snacks, and tune in.
This time around we delve into 1987's HIDE AND GO SHRIEK and 1981's legendary slasher THE PROWLER. As always, we also bullshit about any bands we've been jamming and random movies we've been watching. Tune in and drink up.
We are back with beers in hand. This episode we touch on the last show ever to be held at the old Precinct location, we talk about a new spot that will be doing monthly horror double feature screenings, and we close it out with us discussing the 86 and 88 SOV classics SPINE and 555. There also might be a mini Metallica rant. Who knows. Be sure to tune in, or, at least, die trying.
We are back from our 3 week hiatus. While we were away caught some shows and watched some movies; business as usual. This week we discuss Joe D'Amato's 1979 release BURIED ALIVE aka BUIO OMEGA, BLUE HOLOCAUST, BEYOND THE DARKNESS. This is in Steve's top 10 list so be sure to tune in while enjoying a nice acid bath.
This week we are all over the place with what we talk about. We touch on PHANTASM and JAWS and how they both , respectively, scared the hell out of mothers and fathers. Some how we end up talking about the theatrics of certain black metal bands as well as throwing in a few good, non black metal bands, to check out. We close with our discussion of the all mighty STAGE FRIGHT from 1987. Be sure to check it out.
This episode we hang in 1981, arguably the best year for slashers, and discuss GRADUATION DAY, FINAL EXAM, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME. We also premiere 3 new tracks from Detroit's street metal onslaught SEKKUSU. Not to be missed and not for the faint of heart.
We are back from our journey to grind fest. This week we give a run down of Detroit Grind Fest, discuss THE NEW YORK RIPPER, and pepper in a few bands that are worth your time. Some how, we also end up talking about MR. BEAN and THE KARATE KID. Lots of twists and turns in this one, my friends.
We are back with another fun filled episode. We recommend bands from a wide range of genres, a well as touch on CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD, and THE NEW YORK RIPPER...loosely, as well as a few other choice films. What was the NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET part 2 of the FRIDAY THE 13th franchise? We let you know.
This episode we touch on SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE 1-3 as well as a few other movies we've watched throughout the week. As always, we recommend a few bands worth checking out and we also recommend checking out our friends over at 40oz OF HORROR.
We are back from our short hiatus. While we were away we went to Motorcity Nightmares and had a mediocre time at best. This episode we talk about RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD 1 and 2, as well as give you a few bands that are worth checking. We also mention another podacast that is doing it right; MISERABLE CRYPT. Check them out if you haven't.
We decided not to wait the 2 weeks to record a new episode. We just couldn't stay away. This week we discuss SLEEPAWAY CAMP 1-3, touch on FINAL EXAM and NIGHT SCHOOL, and recommend a couple doom and powerviolence bands that are worth checking out. You gotta slow it down to speed it up. Also, what the fuck happened in Jared's house while recording? We may never know.
This episode is filled with a bunch of topics. We talk about the 1986 film KILLER PARTY as well as APRIL FOOLS DAY, SLAUGHTER HIGH, FRIDAY THE 13th PART VI, and DEAR GOD, NO. We talk about what we've been listening to as well as offer up a few bands worth checking out. Pretty sure Jared was a little drunk because he makes a few mistakes and can't remember anything. Luckily, Steve was cool, calm, and collective.
This episode we touch on EVIL DEAD 1 and 2, we talk a little bit about THE BEYOND, as well as WEREWOLVES ON WHEELS. We give you guys a few bands we feel you need to check out and much more that i'm sure I just can't remember.
This episode we talk about HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK, and EBOLA SYNDROME. We also touch on OFFERINGS, CANNIBAL FEROX, BOOGEY MAN, and Jared goes on a rant about ROOM 237. We review the new NUKE record that was released on HellsHeadBangers. Is it worth a buy? Heres a Hint; YES!
I this episode we discuss the 1981 film Dead & Buried, our weekend at the Precinct Grind Fest, and Steve's first time seeing Lt. Dan. We also talk about when zombie films were good, and announce a couple upcoming releases. Steve also sets the record straight about something Jared said in the first episode. What was it? Who knows. Listen and find out.
Lets get things going on this sloppy first episode. The beer is flowing and the mistakes are plentiful. Nothing has been edited out, so deal with it. We announce a few releases an touch on Argento and Fulci...a little bit. Mention a few bands worth checking out and Jared might have started shit with a few of his music comments . It's episode one so give us a break.
