Burnt Offerings Horror Podcast

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 t...

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 talkin...

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...

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...

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 Jap...

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 entr...

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 MA...

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 m...

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...

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...

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....

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...

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.

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.
