Aaron and Kris take up a viewing and discussion of THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE (1974), a classic film neither host has seen in some time. Has it stood the test of time? Is Leatherface really an effective horror movie villain?

In Earth and Beyond, Kris flies solo while Aaron is out sick. Kris covers some strange animal stories in the recent news (not a discussion of Ed Gein as mentioned in the episode. That will be next week!)

Then, Aaron returns with a brief review of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 (1986) starring Dennis Hopper.

All this and feedback in the first installment of our Texas Chainsaw episodes. In two weeks, we return with a look at the remake and the remake prequel.

The 2010 Fan Expo and Festival of Fear is over, and Horror in the Hammer is here to tell the tale. Aaron, Kris, and Jenn sit down for a detailed discussion of everything they saw, did, and bought at Toronto's largest fan event for pop culture worship. Focusing mostly on the horror, they also talk about their adventures in comics, sci-fi, gaming, and anime.

Also this episode, you can hear my interview with zombie portrait artist Rob Sacchetto (The Zombie Handbook, Zombiewood Weekly). Not enough zombies? Then stick around for the end of the episode to hear my discussion with the original ZOMBIE NURSE from Dawn of the Dead: Sharon Ceccatti-Hill

In Earth and Beyond, Aaron and Kris briefly discuss a story about giant rats killed in the UK before completely going off the rails in an explosion of off-topic anecdotes. Hang on!

Stay tuned to the feed for the full recording of David Cronenberg's panel from Fan Expo coming from Screamwave in the coming days.
