Mail Order Zombie: Episode 100

Download Mail Order Zombie #100 here!

After 100 weeks in a row, Brother D and Miss Bren celebrate by presenting Mail Order Zombie #100, the Dawn of the Dead special! Brother D has seen both George A. Romero's original Dawn of the Dead and the Zach Snyder-directed remake more than once, but Miss Bren . . . ? She'd not seen either of them prior to watching them for this episode. What will happen when a zombie-movie-watching-veteran and a relative newcomer sit down for a discussion about one of the benchmarks of zombie cinema? Who will walk away alive? Who will walk away with divorce papers? Who will call in? We'll give you the answer to that last question; Mail Order Zombie received congratulatory phone calls, holiday wishes and thoughts on Dawn of the Dead from the MOZ Family and fellow podcasters, and you'll get to hear all this in MOZ #100. Brother D will also turn his critical ears toward the scores from both films, and in a special Post Script, he'll discuss the 1979 Dawn of the Dead novelization (written by George A. Romero and Susanna Sparrow). Where else are you going to hear discussion about Dawn of the Dead, taking over a shopping mall, Star Wars action figures, Stephen King, Darkman, Frank Lloyd Wright, The Evil Dead, Quarantine, Peter David, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and multiple personality disorder? Right here! (The Zombie Beat and the Feedback Discussion will be back next week.)

'Survival of the Dead' finds US distribution!

The Wagner/Cuban Companies' Magnet Releasing, genre arm of Magnolia Pictures, announced today that it has acquired US rights to George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead, the latest in the legendary and beloved series of zombie films which bowed at the Venice and Toronto Film Festivals earlier this year. Romero, one of the most influential and respected horror auteurs of all time, has created a new, terrifying vision that combines viscerally gory undead action with biting social commentary and a return to the black humor and playfulness of his seminal film, Dawn of the Dead. Magnet will release the film as part of its Ultra VOD program this spring, debuting it on VOD platforms nationwide a month before its theatrical release.

Like its predecessors, George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead takes place in a desperate, nightmarish world where the dead walk the earth, relentlessly attacking the living. It is the story of Plum Island – a beautiful refuge whose isolation allows two powerful families to maintain a semblance of order in the wake of the zombie holocaust. But as the inhabitants slowly die off, the two clans become sharply divided: the O’Flynns believe that the undead must be destroyed without exception, while the Muldoons insist that afflicted loved ones be kept “alive” until a cure is found. The result is an escalating showdown with echoes of a classic Western stand-off that erupts in brutality and violence.

“George A. Romero is an undisputed cinematic legend, and we’re honored to be bringing another installment of this incredible series of films to horror fans,” said Magnolia President Eamonn Bowles. “Survival... is smart, extremely fun and a worthy addition to the ...of the Dead franchise.”

Says Romero, “I’m a big admirer of the team at Magnolia. They’re creative and passionate, and I’m excited to put Survival... in their hands.”

This is Mail Order Zombie's Thanksgiving Leftovers episode! Brother D reviews two poultry-themed zombie movies this week - Zombeak, written and directed by Sam Drog, and Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead from director Lloyd Kaufman who swings by the show for an interview in which he talks about Poultrygeist as well as the "giant conspiracy of devil-worshipping international media conglomerates." (And for the record, I HAVE read Mr. Kaufman's books! I may not enjoy all his movies, but I certainly respect the man and his fight for artistic independence . . .)

To those of you celebrating Thanksgiving today, Mail Order Zombie wishes you a happy and safe Thanksgiving. If you're not celebrating the holiday, Happy Thursday! In Episode 96 of Mail Order Zombie, Brother D recounts his experiences at HorrorHound Weekend Cincinnati (and he almost didn't come home!). While at the convention, Brother D met old and new friends, and collected several short interviews with filmmakers like Ray Basham, Cameron Scott and Corbin Bernsen, plus the Q&A session after the Night of the Creeps screening. He also picked up a number of movies that he'll be reviewing in upcoming episodes of MOZ. We're still taking answers for this month's Zombie Aptitude Test, and Need-a-Nickname Scott serves up yet another healthy dose of zombie news in the Zombie Beat, and of course Miss Bren swings by the end of the show to go over the weekly Feedback Discussion.

It's the end of Phantasm Month here at Mail Order Zombie, and we close out the franchise with a solid like at Phantasm IV: Oblivion, and then Scott joins Brother D for a discussion of the entire franchise (Phantasm Month was the first time Scott had watched these movies). Zombieland gets a little more attention when Chris Toohey, the man behing the upcoming Mail Order Zombie website relaunch, calls in his quick thoughts on the film; and Mathew from Shelbytownship, MI, reports in with another installment of his ABCs of Zombies, this one devoted to Zombieland. Evilution hits DVD on November 17th later this year, and Brother D preps the MOZ Family by reviewing it and giving it a Headshot rating. We've got a contest, we still have this month's Zombie Aptitude Test, or ZAT, question, and we've got Miss Bren joining the show for the week's Feedback Discussion.

Phantasm Month
continues here on Mail Order Zombie when Brother D takes a critical look at Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead. Not only is reality reshaped by the Phantasm films, but the podosphere itself is threatened with not one, but two podcast crossovers. Slug from the Slugcast interviewed Ron Magee and Mitch Brian, the director and writer of Maul of the Dead, the new play from The Coterie Theater. And in one of the strangest podcast crossovers, Brother D reviews the novel Indiana Jones and the Army of the Dead for Mail Order Zombie and the IndyCast. We're still taking answers for the current Zombie Aptitude Test question, and Need-a-Nickname Scott brings the week's select zombie news in the Zombie Beat. Miss Bren joins Brother D for the Feedback Discussion near the end of the show. (The scheduled review of Evilution has been pushed back a week and will appear in Episode 092.)

Beyond the Trailer profile: Zombie Movies

This is a few weeks old, but I just stumbled across this on YouTube.

The history-lesson aspect of this is a little light and oversimplistic, and the footage from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" does run a bit long (perhaps at the expense of any zombie movies that were released between the original Night of the Living Dead and the "Thriller" music video), but it was nice to see Hammer's Plague of the Zombies get a little attention.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 089

Download Mail Order Zombie: 089 here!

Phantasm Month begins in earnest this week in Episode 89 of Mail Order Zombie! Brother D cracks open his Phantasm box/sphere set to review the first film in the franchise. (Richard from Witchita called in his thoughts on the film, too!) Also in the review queue is the soon-to-be-released (October 27th, 2009) zombie movie Dead Air, directed by Corbin Bernsen and starring Bill Moseley and Patricia Tallman. Writer Glenn Kay - winner of the 2008 Dead Letter Award for Best Zombie Book, Non-fiction for his book Zombie Movies: The Ultimate Guide - swings by to talk zombie movies, compiling his "ultimate" guide and watching Survival of the Dead and [REC] 2. MOZ Family Member Aaron (from The Zed Word: Zombie Blog) also recently saw [REC] 2, and calls in with his thoughts as well.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 088

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 088 here!

Brother D and Miss Bren spent last Saturday at the 3rd Annual Revenant Film Festival, and they took the MOZ Family with them. Okay, not really. But they DID take their microphone, so you'll be able to hear their opening and introduction (and play along with the audience to see if you would have done compared to the Revenant crowd!), and reviews of the movies they watched - ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction, The Hell Patrol, Plague, Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated and Yesterday. Last month's Zombie Aptitude Test answers will be reviewed, and a new ZAT question will be posed to the Mail Order Zombie Family. The Feedback Discussion wraps up the show, and Need-a-Nickname Scott, who really should be in bed, heads up this week's zombie news in the Zombie Beat. (And not only should you stick around through the end of Yesterday for an after-end-credits surprise, but if you listen through the end of this episode, you'll hear Miss Bren's reaction to non-bee pest!)

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 087.5

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 087.5 here!

Blame the zombies or blame Cthulhu. Whatever the reason, Brother D swapped two voicemails sent in to MOZ Central from the Don't Look in the Podcast crew, and played the wrong one yesterday. Remember in Episode 087 when Brother D and Miss Bren refer to a review of Zone of the Dead? Yeah, THIS is the ACTUAL review! Enjoy the review (and a small Zombie Beat update!)

This movie doesn't need zombies: 'The Hills Run Red'

The Hills Run Red hits DVD September 29, 2009, and I think fans of modern and classic slasher films would be wise to check it out. David J. Schow (who's been a horror screenwriter since the late 80s having been involved with A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child and Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, so he's no stranger to slasher films) is one of the writers, and he brings his familiar horror movie sensibility to the movie in a way that's one part nostalgic, one part familiar and yet still one part fresh. (Schow is joined by writer John Dombrow who both co-wrote the screenplay from a story by producer John Carchietta.)

Tad Hilgenbrink plays Tyler, a young filmmaker who's become obsessed with an 80s horror film that never quite made it to the theaters. The Hills Run Red is the name of the horror film within this horror film (and there's a quick bit of bright dialogue acknowledging that, yes, this is also the name of a Western from the 1960s). Tyler ropes his best friend and girlfriend, Lalo and Serina played by Alex Wyndham and Janet Montgomery respectively, into joining him on his quest, and eventually, they find Alexa, who acted in The Hills Run Red when she was a little girl; now she's grown up and is working at a strip club. Sophie Monk plays Alexa, and she's one to watch in the film. In fact, these four leads all sold their roles believably, and I enjoyed watching the four of them delve deeper into the mystery of this mysterious horror film.

Their search brings them back to the film's original shooting locations, and along the way, we go through a few twists and turns before the final plot point spools onto the screen. There are some surprises I'd like to keep from spoiling; I found most of them to be quite effective.

Babyface is the slasher/subject of The Hills Have Red, both the film within the film and the film itself. He seems to be cut from the Jason Voorhees cloth - he's a hulking figure, stomping through the woods and wearing part of a babydoll's face as a mask. The character's back story is revealed in the opening credits through a creepy and grimy sequence that left me surprised.

Surprise is perhaps the theme of my review of The Hills Run Red. This is a straight-to-DVD offering, and it's a modern day slasher, so if I'm being completely honest, my hopes weren't very high. However, I found myself really enjoying this movie, and I know it's something I'll be going back to for repeat viewings. Director Dave Parker has crafted a movie that's well-conceived, well-paced, and as far as I'm concerned, should be well-received.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 087

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 087 here!

Something that hasn't happened in a long time here at Mail Order Zombie happens in this week's episode - you'll have to listen to the four movie reviews to find out what it is! In order, Miss Bren and Brother D review the Jeff Heimbuch movie The Ties That Bind, a short zombie movie based on a Brian Keene short story. Upcoming MOZ webmaster Chris Toohey brings us the first installment of his Couch of the Dead, in which he presents an informal review of the David Decoteau movie Ring of Darkness. Brother D flies solo to review Blood of the Beast, a Georg Koszulinski-directed movie from 2003 featuring clones, zombies and the fall-out of World War III. The big review this week is a review of the movie Zombieland; Brother D and Miss Bren were joined by Zombie Hunter Tony and Headshot Heather for this review and discussion of the upcoming theatrical release. (And if you count the call-in from the Don't Look in the Podcast crew from Horror Realm in which they talk about the movie Zone of the Dead, that gives us a FIFTH review this week!) We still need your answers for the current Zombie Aptitude Test, and in the Feedback Discussion, not only is listener feedback highlighted, but the winners to two contests are announced! Of course, no episode would be complete without the week's select zombie news in the Zombie Beat.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 086

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 086 here!

Episode 86 of Mail Order Zombie has not one, not two, but THREE zombie movie reviews! Brother D reviews Eat Me! from director Katie Carman and O.C. Babes and the Slasher of Zombietown from director Creep Creepersin, and Aaron from the Zedword Zombie Blog brings us a near-exclusive review of Survival of the Dead! Also, Trent Haaga, a writer/producer/actor whose movies have appeared on Mail Order Zombie six times since our launch, swings by for an interview in which he talks about his start with Troma, his time at Full Moon, writing Feeding the Masses and Deadgirl, as well as his experiences attending an Eastern European zombie walk. The answers from last month's Zombie Aptitude Test are reviewed (and remember, we're still accepting answers for this month's ZAT as well!), and Miss Bren joins Brother D during the backhalf of the show for this week's Feedback Discussion. Brother D rocks the Zombie Beat this week, but not without his MOZ news team Need-a-Nickname Scott and his wife Tracey picking out the best of this week's select zombie news.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 085

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 085 here!

We've gathered movie reviews, interviews and zombie news for Episode 85 of Mail Order Zombie, the only zombie and horror movie podcast based out of the Pacific Northwest! Tempe Entertainment's The Brass Ring, directed by William Schotten, and Zombie Abomination: The Italian Zombie Movie Part 1, directed by Thomas Berdinski, are lined up for their Headshot reviews. Brother D interviews Revenant Magazine's Geoff Bough, and Miss Bren chats with Eric S. Brown, author of Season of Rot and World War of the Dead. We're still accepting answers for the current Zombie Aptitude Test, or ZAT (and last month's ZAT answers will be reviewed next week in Episode 86). We had some very interesting questions posed, and Bren and D spend some time going over everyone's emails and voicemails in the Feedback Discussion in the backhalf of the episode. And pay special attention to the Beat this week - there's a contest or two nestled amongst the week's select zombie news!

August's ZAT Extra Credit entries

The following are the entries from August's Zombie Aptitude Test Extra Credit contest. Please take the survey beneath the pics to help choose a winner! This survey will be open until September 21st, 2009. Good luck to all the entrants!

Marina, the Fire-Eating Mermaid

I always make it a point to listen to it on my waterproof iPod while I drown dem sailors...

Clint K.

I listen to Mail Order Zombie every week while working. I mow lawns commercially almost every day to help fund my filmmaking. It's kinda hard to tell what I'm doing in the pic because I had to take it myself, but it's me on my lawnmower.

Ghastly Guy
Jeff M.
Ghastly Guy

Ghastly Guy relaxes on his roof while listening to the latest episode of Mail Order Zombies! While listening he basks in the nippy triple-digit rays of Texas summers and puts away a cold one. Not to mention, while on the roof he's out of the reach of Zombies; making head phones less dangerous!

Jeff M.

I love to listen to the podcast at work. I am a Physical Therapist Assistant in a nursing home and the work can become quite stressful, not to mention depressing, sometimes. There's nothing better than putting on the earphones and sitting quietly at the computer to write my patient's notes and listen to you two and the rest of the family while I'm writing. Attached is a photo that I had a co-worker snap of me with some of my "equipment." Yes, those are artificial limbs that three of my patients let me borrow for the shot. Don't worry, the three of them aren't shambling around on one leg while I use their valuable prosthetics for my own pleasure! All three were in bed, resting quietly.

I listen to MOZ while working nights at a local outdoor shopping mall. Yeah, I know security is always the first to go in zombie movies, but here I am at day break.

Yes, it's me, Slug. Yes, I was in the shower. Yes, the water was on. Yes, I was only wearing my headphones. No, you can't see any nudity.

Here is a before shower pic...you can see the showerhead.

My family and I went on a little trip this past weekend, and I did a lot of the driving. My iPod and MOZ kept me sane, laughing and awake; and also from driving off of the interstate! So, since you guys were a big part of my weekend, my husband took my picture listening to you in this "strange" place. I won't tell you where it is, but maybe you can figure it out once you take a look at the picture!

Third Coast Zed

Well... from May until August of 2008 I enjoyed my MOZ while bombing down the highway on my motorcycle. In desperation, I took a job that was far enough from my shed that I could listen to the entire episode, stop for a quick coffee and still have a few nickels to go on the bike. It was a rough time, but every Friday morning's commute was made better by my MOZ fix. Only thing is, at the time, everyone's favorite living impaired was just beginning to make his presence known, and I would have to slow down from ludicrous speed so I could hear his call.

Zombie Farmer & Timmy
Zombie Farmer and Timmy

I don't know about the coolest place to listen to the show but this might be the most unusual....I listen to MOZ while brushing Timmy's Teeth!

Headshot Heather

Sometimes when work has got me stressed, I head up into the mountains for a little target practice & the melodious tones of Brother D & Miss Bren on the Mail Order Zombie podcast.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 084

Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 084 here!

The Post Script breaks format this week - instead of a book review, Miss Bren interviews Rhiannon Frater, author of the As the World Dies trilogy in this week's show. Brother D brings in two more movie reviews when he casts his Headshot-delivering critical eyes at Clint Keller's Road to Oblivion and the "animagic" special Mad Monster Party. Dr. J is back with a new installment of Med of the Dead, and because it's a new month, there's a new question-of-the-month with the Zombie Aptitude Test. The Feedback Discussion holds down the backhalf of the show (where Wayne Kotke has a special brief message for Brother D), and the Zombie Beat brings in the beginning of the show with the week's selected zombie news courtesy of MOZ Cub Reporter Need-a-Nickname Scott and a special guest.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 083

Download Mail Order Zombie #083 here!

It all comes down to this - the final week in the Summer Knights event! In Episode 83 of Mail Order Zombie, Brother D reviews the fourth Blind Dead film, Night of the Seagulls. In Episode 104 of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick also reviewed the film, and together, Brother D and Des discuss the franchise as a whole. Part 1 of this discussion takes place in MOZ #83, and Part 2 will take place in Dread Media #105 (you are listening to Dread Media at http://www.dreadmedia.net/, aren't you?). Also this week, Mark E. Poole's Dead Moon Rising gets the Headshot Review treatment when Brother D reviews a movie that was donated to the show by a generous member of the Mail Order Zombie Family (you can donate movies to the show, too, by visiting http://tinyurl.com/mozwish/!). Answers for the current Zombie Aptitude Test are still being collected (and remember - there is a contest attached to the ZAT this week, and you could win a Mail Order Zombie prize pack!). Emails and voicemails from the MOZ Family bring Miss Bren to the table for the Feedback Discussion (and one voicemail left by long-time-listener-first-time-caller Zombart made its way into this week's select zombie news in the Zombie Beat!).

Brewed with the Undeadest of Ingredients

MOZ Family Member Richard from Witchita sent this graphic to MOZ Central not too long ago.
