It seems like every few years movie fans are treated to a heaping helping of deja vu, when Hollywood releases a series of similarly-themed films. In 1996, there was TWISTER and its doppelganger TORNADO starring Bruce Campbell. In 1997 we got DANTE'S PEAK and VOLCANO. 1998 brought us the extinction-level comet crisis films DEEP IMPACT and the macho cheese of Michael Bay's ARMAGEDDON. So for episode #98 I thought I'd talk about the wave of undersea creature features of 1989 which included DEEPSTAR SIX, LEVIATHAN, THE ABYSS and LORDS OF THE DEEP. Plus the new book by R.G. Henning about FRIDAY THE 13th Part 3, Blue Öyster Cult's new release 'Ghost Stories', the Texas Frightmare Weekend countdown watch list and more.

Episode #96 of MY HAUNTED HEAD (originally recorded as Episode #63) has apparently been collecting dust down in the vault for the past year or so. So we've dusted it off, and now bring you this extensive, (mostly) unedited walk down memory lane as Toddzilla and Matthew discuss all of the incredible film heroes whom we've met at conventions, and who are unfortunately no longer with us. Included are meetings with Stuart Gordon, David Hess, Gunnar Hansen, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Herschell Gordon Lewis, Ted White, John Saxon and many more. Lots of great memories, and a few laughs along the way. Listen now on your favorite podcast app. RATE, SHARE and SUBSCRIBE!

Following 1968's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, George A. Romero directed a pair of non-horror films (THE AFFAIR and SEASON OF THE WITCH) that have either eluded or underwhelmed longtime fans who preferred the darker and gruesome later work he is most known for. But in 1973 George Romero completed THE CRAZIES, a film steeped in chaos and fear. THE CRAZIES tells a story of contagion in a small community, the effect it has on the townspeople as it spreads and the struggle against military forces who try to contain and eradicate the threat. One of Romero's early "dark horse" films! Also a discussion of the 2010 remake of TEH CRAZIES, and a remembrance of DAWN OF THE DEAD's David Emge.

KNIGHTRIDERS was not only one of George A. Romero's rare non-horror films, and one of his personal favorites of his own films, but it has a lot to offer fans of Romero classics like MARTIN, DAWN OF THE DEAD, CREEPSHOW and DAY OF THE DEAD. With the involvement of actors and collaborators spanning NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD in 1968 to LAND OF THE DEAD in 2005, the collective talent behind KNIGHTRIDERS is a bridge of sorts between all of Romero’s films - a mix of where George Romero had been, and where he was going. Episode #94 of My Haunted Head takes a look at one of Romero's most ambitious, and underappreciated, films. Plus news about a new book by PHANTASM director Don Coscarelli, and Joe Lynch's new film SUITABLE FLESH starring Barbara Crampton. Listen now on your favorite podcast app. SUBSCRIBE, Rate and Review!

Whether it was one of his many appearances on television, or one of the many genre films he did in the late 70's and early 80's, Christopher George left an indelible mark in television and film. In much the same way that actor Robert Forster brought a believable everyman quality to a variety of roles, Christopher George was able to slip comfortably from drama to action and horror in a way that made him relatable, and the material believable. He was a rugged, handsome, charismatic actor who elevated every project he appeared in. He should be held in the same regard as actors like Roy Scheider, Robert Forster and Lance Henriksen. Though his body of work included war films, comedies, sci-fi and action, for episode #93 we will focus on the prison drama, nature-run-amok, vigilante justice, zombie apocalypse, classic slasher, ninja and occult films he did from 1973-1983. Whether you're new to his work, or a long-time admirer, please join My Haunted Head in a celebration of the films of Christopher George.

Welcome to episode #84 of My Haunted Head. Halloween season is upon us, and we’re all making our lists of movies we consider essential viewing throughout October. When we watch our favorite horror films, we all think “What would I do in that situation?” Or we yell at the screen “Idiot - you deserve to die! That would never happen to me!” In this episode Toddzilla and Matthew kick around some situations, and discuss whether they think they would survive their favorite horror movies. In doing so, they need to be realistic in their assessment of how they would react in a sometimes unrealistic situation. How would they fare when there’s a killer on the loose, or the dead rise from their graves? Put yourself in your favorite horror films. Will you be the victim or the victor?
