Just a heads up on what’s happenin’.

I am working on two episodes of the podcast simultaneously. Actually it’s one episode of the Ghoulzone, and the first episode of something new. There are issues and delays happening all around me now, but rest assured that progress is being made and I am continuing with the production of podcasting type stuff.

I slacked on the Ghoultoons again too, but a new one is coming up shortly.

I again apologise for my inconsistancy, but I can say that stuff is happening even when you don’t hear from me for awhile.

The long-awaited somewhat triumphant return of the Ghoulzone Podcast! After 10 months of lying in the grave we reanimate and go back to shoving that sweet audible chocolate in your ears. At least I think that’s chocolate…

WARNING: this podcast was recorded under the influence of the following formula-

alcohol + caffeine = EXCESSIVE BABBLING

You have been warned.

First we catch up on where the podcast has been and where it’s going, followed by a somewhat sad drunken state of the podcaster news segment.

Next we discuss favorite horror podcasts that have ended or returned. Certain minor events from fellow podcasters are discussed at length as a call for clarification and in hopes that doing so doesn’t get me into trouble, and opinions are given about topics from The Horror Podcast Network to making money from podcasting and related philosophies.

Then comes the review of direct to video gem Monster Man and a call to give this film well deserved attention. It’s funny, well written, well acted, and contains some nice gore that’s skillfully done. So why isn’t it more popular?

Bask in the glow of the return of the podcast, because there’s nothing like a good glowbasking!

Here are the first two cards in a series of trading cards that I just made up for no reason! I was thinking that podcasters have never been featured in trading cards so I wondered what that would look like.

Below you have a view of the front of the card with a picture, name, and the name of the card series. The second view is the back of the card with info and stats. It’s kind of based on sports cards where interesting facts are listed about either individual players (in this case the podcast hosts) or the teams (in this case, the podcast show itself). The stats are meant as a goof and not as any self-important list of feats.

Unfortunately, these cards aren’t print quality, though I suppose you could print some if you wanted to. Let me know if you want a piece of that horrible gum that came with the baseball cards and I’ll make you a virtual piece, which oddly enough would probably taste better than the real thing.

If any of you horror podcasters would like your own trading card, just let me know and I’ll add you and your show to the “series”. I’ll need you to send me pictures or photos to use (they don’t have to be photos of you, but you should choose something that represents you especially if it’s funny), and some funny stats unless you want me to write them, and I will make fun of you cuz that’s what I do. Just look at the cards below for the information I need to add to them.

This is the horror podcast series. If enough people are interested, I an do a general podcast series so any kind of show can be listed, it’s just that I mostly listen to horror podcasts myself.

Collect them all!

No podcast this week. I’ve been both sick and busy, but the good news is that I’m more organized and have outlines for the next several shows. Expect a new episode next Tuesday.

 Coming up on the next few shows I have more zombie discussion, some advice for editing sound files and some more horror and remake stuff to complain about discuss. Also, we have reviews of dvds for Let The Right One In, Tokyo Zombie, and then we are going back to summer camp and getting our retro on.

Don’t you fear, there’ll be plenty to fear soon!

In the meantime, since you are so totally cool, if you really want to, do me a solid and vote for Ghoulzone on PodcastAlley. I’d be happy just to get to the bottom of page one which is number 50, just so people can find the show and give it a chance.

I have like one vote, and I’m on the 5th page somewhere. Thanks for that vote BTW, but we just can’t have this being buried on the 5th page crap because it is just damned pathetic, so do your thang!

 Also, I can’t seem to find the time to put more content up on the site beyond the Ghoultoons (every Monday and Thursday like freaking clockwork) so if anyone has any opinion pieces or reviews, as long as it’s horror related, send them in and I’ll post them.

Stupid Happy Face

Episode 5 – Reposessed Zombies

It’s another long show which contains a few comments about avoiding doing a long show then proceeding to do a long show, following up with an apology for doing the long show.

There is much in-depth discussion about zombies and zombie movies, what is and what ain’t. Theories are theoried and complaining ensues, then much love and respect is given to zombie podcasts. Then we get rude again and tell everyone why they are so very very wrong. Finally, we give constructive advice and experiments you can try at home. The whole zombie thing is cleared up, and there is much rejoicing and the children get balloons and toys.

The DVD of Repo The Genetic Opera is reviewed, featuring simultaneous praise and disjointed nitpicking, and nostalgia for the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Testify!!

Ghoulzone Podcast episode 5

Episode 4 – Oh rats, it’s Larry!

Welcome to Chez Ghoulzone! Please, have a seat and be comfortable. You are just in time to join me and a crapload of gigantic worms, chickens, and rats as we chow down on everything in sight.

We start with soup and salad consisting of various news items, from the future of Ghostbusters and The Thing to the anticipation of the Halloween sequel.

For the appetizer, Rob Zombie is barbequed over an open flame, then defended, followed by more barbecuing and basted with my very own brand of extra-critical sauce. Mmm-MMM!

For the main course, my thoughts on horror movie remakes. Definitions are definitioned and hairs are split, and the whole thing is cleared up for everyone. It’s finger-lickin’-good theory.

For dessert, a rich cheesey review of Food of the Gods. Director Bert I. Gordon is famous for serving up some of the most undigestible films ever made, so be sure to have plenty of fiber and antacids on hand.

This entire meal amounts to a total of 2 solid hours of fine auditory eatin’. Here’s hoping you have nothing to do for awhile!

In the sequel, these turn into HUGE butterflies

Ghoulzone Podcast episode 4

I am in the process of editing Episode 4 of the podcast, and it should be posted soon.

I’ve been so damned busy lately and just can’t seem to get a couple of hours alone to get the show fully recorded. People and animals like to make noise it seems, and my gawd we can’t have that.

Fortunately I figured out that I can get more things done if I stop wasting time sleeping.

But I do want to try to get more regular content on the website, so here’s what you’ll be seeing in the near future-

• Regular blog entries a few times a week about horror stuff I see around teh internets
• A couple of new mini features on the right sidebar: one called Random Freakage which is a set of rotating mini Ghoultoons. I’ll add more images there now and then. Each page refresh will give you a new chuckle.
• The other is Pick My Brain, which will be funny mini blog posts. Hooray for Wordpress widgets!
• Movie reviews in their own section, I’m still working out the format I want to use for them
• A Ghoulzone store with a wide variety of awesome swag

So be sure to stop by and see the ongoing mutation.

BTW – I’ve been getting more great feedback on the Ghoultoons, and I’m happy that you guys are enjoying them so much. There are plenty more to come. And be sure to pay attention to the message boards for all your favorite podcasts, because you never quite know when or where the Ghoultoons will stike next! I may infect yours!

Stick around, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!
