Dread Media

Ho Ho Holy shit, what a bad movie?! This week, as is tradition, Desmond and Duane ring in the holiday season with a review of a Christmas horror film. This week, it's David Hess's first and only film as a director: To All a Good Night. But, because the movie pretty much blows, they instead rundown their own favorite Christmas horror films in an impromptu double Dread Media Top 5 tucked into a review. Then, Duane has been telling Desmond to watch Better Watch Out for years, so he finally does and gives a short review of that much better film. And of course, we pay tribute to one of the greatest film composers of all-time. Carols included: "Snow Dome Dreams" by Angelo Badalamenti (RIP), "No Presents for Christmas" by King Diamond, "Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight)" by The Ramones, and, of course, "Silent Night, Deadly Night (acoustic)" by The Browns.
