Mail Order Zombie: Episode 092

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 092Download Mail Order Zombie: Episode 092 here!

Need-a-Nickname Scott calls the antagonist of these movies the Soulsucker of the Universe! 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.

Mail Order Zombie: Episode 091

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!)
