The Demented Podcast

Moving into our first of two guys in this "all female" season, Jason Soto of Invasion of the B-Movies joins us once again. This time, we're talking meta-horror films Scream and Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon. (Warning: Both discussions are heavy on spoilers... and while we assume most of you have seen Scream by this point, Leslie Vernon is a more unknown flick. If you don't want to be spoiled, we can tell you this: It's an incredibly positive reaction from all three of us.) After the film discussions, we move on into the Tower. Jason has a new strategy... but will it work? Listen to find out!

Due to Podomatic bandwidth issues, I will no longer be placing the podcast player on the site. But you can easily listen and subscribe through iTunes!

That being said, enjoy! Thanks goes out to Kevin MacLeod's Incompetech website for great, royalty-free music. And thanks to Google for helping me find a website that will give me free video game audio samples.

Yeah, I know. Not a very creative title... but I couldn't find anything else particularly thematic from the episode to put in there. Anyway, we're joined this episode by Rachel Thuro. We state in the episode that she is of Rachel's Reel Reviews; however, this was recorded immediately before her announcement, and she is now of the site Reel Insight. She's here to talk with us about fairy tale flicks Ladyhawke and MirrorMask.

Then... this former Battle Royale winner and former BR runner-up takes on The Tower yet again. Will this Tower Veteran score the highest of the season... or will she fumble early? Listen to find out!

For this episode, we're joined by Stevee of Cinematic Paradox. She's on to discuss psychological thrillers The Grifters and Hard Candy. We have some fun discussions before moving on to The Tower. Will this girl from the land close to the land down under make it to the top? Or will she get too... psyched out? Listen to find out!

Due to technical difficulties, we lost the majority of this episode. I was able to get in the last 13 minutes of the show, which is the majority of Round Two in The Tower through to the end, but we lost everything else. So for the first 13 minutes, I summarize the introduction of our guest, Nikhat of Being Norma Jeane; our thoughts on the films (Roxanne and I'm A Cyborg But That's OK); and the beginning of The Tower. Then I give you actual audio from the show. I know it's a short show, but I hope you enjoy what you've gotten anyway. And it'll give you some time to get in more feedback for previous episodes.

This week Steve and I were joined by Lindsay Street of French Toast Sunday. She was here to talk about some ghost movies, mainly the original versions of both The Fog and The Eye. And after the campfire talk, we move on in to The Tower. Will Lindsay see the light at the end and dominate, or will her failure forever haunt the Tower's walls? (Ghost puns!)
