Dread Media

This week on Dread Media, Desmond and Tom squeeze one more holiday film in at the very tail end of the season because we didn't want to wait that long again to share the sheer insanity of Bruce Campbell passing the torch to Devon Sawa in 2021's Black Friday. Then Desmond does a Dread Media Top 5 Workplace Horror Films. All that, and songs too: "Strength Thru Shopping" by Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine, "Black Friday" by Faith No More, "Day's Work" by ASG, and "Girl in a Suitcase" by Lordi. Happy American Thanksgiving, I guess. Send feedback to: dreadmediapodcast@gmail.com. Follow @DevilDinosaurJr and @dreadmedia on Twitter! Join the Facebook group!

They're short and obnoxious. But enough about the films. The monsters in the series are too. To ring in episode 750 (because, let's face it, these movies aren't a celebration of anything) Desmond and Tom review all five films in the Critters franchise. Critters, Critters 2: The Main Course, Critters 3, Critters 4, and Critters Attack! are on the docket today. But there's music to make them more palatable: "Mars Attacks" by The Misfits, "The Hunger" by Tombs, "Still Hungry" by Adelita's Way, "Bite Your Teeth" by Poppy, "Shadow Eaters" by Edguy, "Hungry Like the Wolf" by Reel Big Fish, and "Fur and Claw" by Thy Art Is Murder.

This week on Dread Media, Desmond is frustrated with a double feature of films with a trope he can't stand anymore. Thankfully, Tom is there to help him through it.

Songs included: "Nasty" by The Damned, "Stabbing Nightmare" by Video Nasties, "Follow the Blood" by Cannibal Corpse, and "The Void from Which No Sound Escapes" by Rivers of Nihil.
