This week, it's Curtains (1983) for me! I had the immense pleasure of talking with composer Paul Zaza about his score for the film, as well as his experiences scoring Prom Night and My Bloody Valentine, touring with The 5th Dimension, and being taken aback by the unmatched passion of the horror community.

#23: Better Off DEAD AND BURIED (1981)
This week, join composer Gory Rory and myself as we celebrate one of the finest (and often criminally forgotten) gems of the 80s: Gary Sherman's Dead and Buried. This is one of my personal favorite horror films of all time and I'm so excited to finally be unpacking it here... and I'm not just saying that because it gives me an opportunity to poorly impersonate Macon McCalman.

#22: The Fictional Reality of IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS (1995)
Happy 28th anniversary to one of my personal favorite John Carpenter films: In the Mouth of Madness! This week, Bruce returns to the show to share his first impressions of the film and the Slasher family recommends some scary reads. Also, I lament my lack of Canadian ancestry. Again.
