The Joe Blow Horror Show

Episode 14: The Top 15 of 2018

Welcome to the horror show! In this episode, we decide which horror movies are worthy of our top 15 in 2018. As untrained 'critics' our lists differ from the people who get paid to judge these movies. We're just picking our favorites as they appeal to us. 

After the top 15 we have some extra top categories like: top actress, top actor, top child actor, top foreign film, etc...

Let us know what you think and give us your top 15 on our Facebook page under the same name as the podcast. Any feedback is appreciated! If you disagree with me, I'll fight you.

Episode 10: The Omega Man (1971) & Joy Ride (2001)

In this episode the guys explore the 1971 Charlton Heston "cult" zombie/vampire classic: The Omega Man. We also discover why you never use a CB radio to prank an unsuspecting truck driver in the newer movie, Joy Ride (2001). Breaker Breaker 1-9 we have a problem. (Spoiler Alert! Paul Walker is not the one you need to be worried about killing people with a vehicle in this one!) (I am so sorry!) 

For our discussion topic we break down the best way to survive a zombie apocalypse and bostuna does his actors spotlight on horror royalty Tommy (MotherFu*****) Atkins. Famous for his roles in movies like The Fog, Escape from New York, and previously reviewed, Halloween III.

Episode 9: Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) & The Blair Witch Project (1999)

Welcome back fans and foes! Sorry for the delayed release. Episode 8 is currently in Limbo due to technical difficulties, so we decided to continue our other episodes until we can get Episode 8 working. 

In this episode, we review Halloween 3 (1982), the most "Halloweeny" movie of the franchise that actually has nothing to do with Michael Myers. For our new movie we cover a movie so scary people believed it was real: The Blair Witch Project (1999). 

Also: Drunk Darius Quizzes bostuna's knowledge on the original Halloween film along with our normal discussion topic and horror happenings!

Episode 6: Something Wicked This Way Comes(1983) & Zodiac(2007)

Welcome back friends to the Joe Blow Horror Show where we discuss, review, breakdown, and rate horror movies NOT horror films. This show we cover a Disney movie that's as close to horror as Disney can get and a "fringe" horror in the crime thriller category.  

This show, the discussion topic is top "good guy" killer or killers whose motives can be justified.  Bostuna's segment is "Actor Spotlight" with the one and only Gunnar Hansen.

Episode 5: Sleepaway Camp(1983) & Outbreak(1995)

Welcome friends to the Joe Blow Horror Show where we discuss, review, and rate horror movies NOT horror films.  This episode we cover another cult classic in Sleepaway Camp and continue with another good, but fringe horror in Outbreak.  

This shows discussion topic is "Horror Mood". Are there certain moods or time of year that you must watch particular horror movies? Most horror fans have their own film habits.  We get a little deep in this topic and have some fun.  Drunk Darius entertains us this show with his horror trivia.  How well will Bostuna do?
