Horror Movie Maniacs

HAPPY HALLOWEEN MANIACS! Welcome to our Terrifier trilogy chat where we are joined by a beloved chap from the amazing horror community, musician, horror fan, podcaster, Terrifier expert and all round top geezer, Ryan J Keen! Listen in as we hack, slash & cleave our way through all things Terrifier. We chinwag about Art the Clown, Sienna, the gore, the mythology, the future of the Terrifier franchise and more. We even put Grant & Ryan's Terrifer knowledge to the test as they go head to head in a fun packed Terrifier quiz! (Think we may have used the word Terrifier just a little too much in this description!)

You like zombie films? You like action flicks? Then get a load of Dead Zero! A short low budget independent horror film that mixes both genres. In this episode we chat with producer and actor, Lee Alan Donaldson, and actress & star of Dead Zero, Katy Stokes.

In the lead up to GRIMMFEST we had the absolute pleasure of welcoming director, producer, occasional actor, full time dumpster diver & workaholic, Casey Walker to the Horror Movie Maniacs podcast, and damn, what a fun time we had! We are telling you, this guy can tell stories for days! Join us as we chit chat about a plethora of movies that Casey has been involved in, including, The Void, Pyewacket, In A Violent Nature, and of course, Casey's upcoming new film, which will have screened at GRIMMFEST by the time this airs, Ithaqua. (and yes, we didn't know how to pronounce that properly either!) P.S. - We also chat our usual nonsense too!

Has Zach Cregger created the Resident Evil movie we have all been waiting for?

So grab your shotgun and first aid sprays and come take this journey to Racoon City with us!
