Welcome...to the Graveyard Show Classic.  This is a look-back at my interview with Christopher Sharrett, Professor of Film Studies at Seton Hall University.

Welcome...to the graveyard. It's my pleasure to welcome director David Weiner to the program. We will discuss his 1980's horror documentary In Search of Darkness: A Journey Into Iconic '80s Horror. This will be a two-part interview since I wouldn't be doing the film justice by trying to cram it into one podcast.

Welcome...to the graveyard. It's my pleasure to welcome Jeremy King ("Chad") and Zoe Graham ("Jessie") from the horror anthology film Scare Package. They will discuss the film, their experience working with writer/director Aaron Koontz, and a few other things that I won't print for those that haven't seen the film yet. Scare Package is currently streaming on Shudder, but on October 20th the film will be available on Digital, VOD, and Blu-Ray.  ____________________________________________ Now, the disclaimer- if you haven’t seen Scare Package, and you don’t want to know anything about the film you should turn back now and come back after you’ve seen the film. While we did our best not to ruin anything for those who haven’t seen the film, there are some things that we do discuss. There are a few surprises we talk about and some moments from the film, but that couldn’t be helped. After all, it is an interview, and if I avoided everything about the movie there wouldn't be anything to talk about.   So again. You have been warned….you have been warned…you have been warned! I don’t want any angry emails because I gave something away in the film before you saw it. _____________________________________________ The Graveyard Show Podcast can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Stitcher, and wherever podcasts exist.

Welcome...to the graveyard. I am thrilled to welcome two independent filmmakers from the world of horror shorts to the program. Alex Magaña is the writer/director of such horror shorts as Smiling Woman, Lost In the Woods, and Outbreak (among others). We will discuss how he began writing and directing horror shorts, making his films while under Covid quarantine, and how he tries to "hook people" when they watch his movies online. Aria Jackson is the writer/director of the horror short Phone Home, which recently won Best Supernatural Film and Best Original Story at the 2020 Hollywood Horrorfest. We'll discuss how she created the story by working backwards from the film's ending, how she approaches filmmaking, and how she stuck to her original vision for the film's ending, even when some people told her it wouldn't work.

Welcome....to the graveyard.

Welcome....to the graveyard. The gates to the Graveyard Show Podcast (2009-2010) have reopened, and I thought (a decade later) it was time to start revisiting many of my interviews from that time with an updated introduction and close to each of these new "Tombstone Editions".  My first tombstone being placed in my newly renovated graveyard is with director Patrick Lussier, and he came on my show to discuss his film My Bloody Valentine 3-D. We talked about what it was like shooting in the 3-D process, the making of the film, and working as Wes Craven's editor among other things. There will be many more of these Tombstone Editions to come, including an interview with someone from a famous horror film that has never been heard since the show went away in 2010.
