Dread Media

How scary is American Horror Story? Too scary for Megan to watch more than one episode of. But there's still plenty to talk about as Desmond confuses his own sexual fantasies, and Megan admits by omission that Dylan McDermott's ass is one of her favorite parts of the show.

Dying in the Gutters returns! Again! And boy, are Chris and Desmond stoked to talk about three excellent comic books: Tomb of Dracula #28-30. But there's also the painfully maddening Giant-Size Dracula #3-4. Ugh. Marvel at Dracula's racism! Wonder at black guys in China with Japanese names! Be amazed as Dracula babysits! Seriously, ol' Vlad should probably not be working for Child Services. Send f...

This episode is a dreadful duo of deplorable DVDs as Desmond and Darryll face off against idiots trying to save the world, and Devil Dinosaur Jr. deduces that killer home appliances are not so distressing.

The Commonwealth Crew regrets that this installment of Dread Reel-ief features discussion of 1999's Virus. Not that the conversation is bad. The film is. Regrettably bad. Sorry. We are that we had to watch it. Yuck. There are robo-cenobites, though. Also, what other robot film gets a vocal gasp of disgust from Ian? Send feedback to: feedback@dreadmedia.net, or 206.203.1213. Follow us on Twitter @M...

Desmond sets the tone by getting the episode number wrong at the top of a show dealing with reviews of The Raid: Redemption (with Darryll), The Dark Knight Rises (by Devil Dinosaur Jr.), and Silent House (just Desmond). There is also music between these reviews! These are those examples of music: "Razors Out" by Mike Shinoda and Joe Trapanese (featuring Chino Moreno), "Beyond Redemption" by HIM, "...

In this mildly special episode of the Gleefully Macabre podcast, Jeff reads the story "The Loneliest Jackalope" from the anthology Unnatural Tales of the Jackalope.

All aboard the Dread Media train as Desmond and Darryll finally review the classic Horror Express.
