This week is a Dread Media first! Our old friend Greg Lamberson joins us in the waning days (hours) of The Frenzy Moon's Indiegogo campaign to do a double Dread Media Top 5 Favorite Werewolf Movies as an excuse to talk about werewolf movies. What's the best movie werewolf ever? What ridiculous choices did Desmond choose? You need to listen to find out. And that's not all! It isn't a werewolf movie, but it definitely has people dressed as dogs in it. It's a review of the Mexican revenge / home invasion film, Animales Humanos with Duane. And of course, there are tunes: "Blood Spiller" by Cave In, "The Wolf Man Kindly Requests..." by Clutch, "I Wanna Be Your Dog" by The Stooges, and "Dog Eat Dog" by Tomahawk.
