Season 10: Episode 85: That WWII Episode: Zombies and Vampires Oh My!
Originally Recorded on Saturday April 13th and Saturday April 20th, 2024 Hello there, fans! That Horror Show Podcast brings you a brand new episode for the beginning of the May season...but, just to be clear, this episode is not May-related. Anyways, those lovable dummies Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig tackle another double-feature of fear and fright. And, wouldn't you know it, the two films take place during World War 2! Pop quiz, class: did you know the Allies were fighting against zombie supermen and Romanian blood-suckers on the side? If you didn't know that piece of ancient history, then you are in for a treat with this episode. Tune in to hear the hosts talk about "Overlord" (2018), a wild tale involving American G.I.'s battling against evil Nazi's (really, are there any other kind?) and the Third Reich's secret experimentation in the creation of superhuman soldiers from beyond the grave! And then, the hosts turn their sights towards the rather witty title "Blood Vessel" (2019) in which those wild and crazy Nazi's have unleashed an ancient Romanian blood-drinking creature on a ship that threatens some Allied survivors! Oh, and Nate of 'Kids Corner' just got his draft papers and he's about to tackle "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil" (2010). So grab your rifle and bayonet, make sure you have plenty of Lucky Strike's to smoke-up, and give this episode a listen, soldier!   #Overlord #BloodVessel #TuckerandDaleVsEvil #DeathShip #WWII #Zombies #Vampires #THSP

THSP: Season 9: Thanksgiving Special: That Thanksgiving 2023 Episode!
' Recorded on Monday November 20th, 2023. Happy Thanksgiving, fans!!! That Horror Show Podcast brings you their annual Thanksgiving episode and we know you've been dying to hear it! Show hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig have been very busy getting the turkey ready and the traditional side dish of mashed potatoes with gravy, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie with a glass of wine of your choice (sadly, once again, they can only afford box wine, but hey: wine is wine, after all!). And, the hosts have a nice little Thanksgiving-themed horror movie to review for your listening pleasure. But there is just one little problem: 'special guest star' Dave Rodriguez couldn't make it for this episode due to being ill (personally, Chris claims the illness is herpes, but we all know that isn't true...or IS IT?!?!), so he won't be gracing the show's presence with his classic table-read synopsis filled with hilarity and hijinks. Oh well, maybe next time Dave...and yes, Davey, make sure you get vaccinated before you come back, m'kay. And sadly, there will be no 'Kids Corner' review with little Nate, due to technical difficulties...and that Nate needs a rest now and then. Anyways, sit back and relax as Tim and Chris carve the turkey up and banter about none other than the recent release of Eli Roth's much anticipated "Thanksgiving" (2023). Does the movie deliver the Thanksgiving horror goods...or, is it just a big ol' undercooked turkey not worthy of a decent carving? Tune in and find out! #Thanksgiving2023 #Thanksgiving #EliRoth #THSP #JohnCarver

Season 9: Episode 78: That Overseas Episode Part 2: Welcome to Romania!
Recorded: Sunday May 28th, 2023 and Tuesday June 20th, 2023 Howdy, fans! That Horror Show Podcast brings you another brand, spankin' new episode to delight your eardrums (hopefully!). After surviving the Ray Dennis Steckler three-part retrospective, show-hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig felt it was time to take a trip overseas, relax, and check out two horror-thrillers that take place in foreign locales. So after getting their passports updated and purchasing their round-trip tickets, Tim and Chris hopped on a jet and made their way to France to check out "High Tension" (2003) - or "Haute Tension", if you prefer it in native 'Francais' - a tale of two college girls heading out to the French countryside to study, only to have their weekend be ruined by some swarthy French-dude who has a penchant for committing horrible murders. You know, that old story!!! Then, after that, the hosts move on to none other than Romania to check out "Watcher" (2022), a fish-out-of-water story that's as old as time: an American woman who fears that she might be a future victim of a serial killer!!!! So if you're interested in knowing what the show-hosts think about those two movies...well, give this episode a listen and you'll find out! All this and brand new Kidz Corner where Nate and Tim travel into the Guatemala Central American rainforest to Checkout the 1987 classic film "Predator".   #Romania #HighTension #Watcher #Predator #THSP
Season 9: Episode :76: That Ray Dennis Steckler Retrospective Part 2!

Season 9: Episode :76: That Ray Dennis Steckler Retrospective Part 2!
Originally Recorded on  March 11th, 12th, and 25th, 2023 Greetings and salutations, fans! That Horror Show Podcast presents Part Deux of our Ray Dennis Steckler retrospective! Tune in as hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig tackles Steckler's next productions, which feature enough behind the camera professionalism to capture the personal "home movie" horror film aesthetic. First up, Tim and Chris review "The Lemon Grove Kids Meet the Monsters" (1967-1969), a three-part short film series mash-up in which Steckler imitates the 'Bowery Boys' with his friends and family in 'The Lemon Grove Kids', 'The Lemon Grove Kids Meet the Green Grasshopper and the Vampire Lady from Outer Space' (phew...what a title!) and 'The Lemon Grove Kids...Go Hollywood!' And then, once when the 1970s began everything would change for Ray with his production of "The Chooper" (1971, aka "Blood Shack"), which shows you need a lot more than just the hot Nevada desert locale and a decrepit house complete with a soiled mattress to make a horror movie! But wait, that’s not all: Chris goes solo to review a couple of Steckler's later triple-X rated horror titles (so Tim doesn't have to!) of the likes such as "The Mad Love Life of a Hot Vampire", "Count Al-Kum" (oh, how witty, Ray!), "The Sexorcist Devil" and "Red Heat" (and yes, these reviews of Steckler's hardcore titles are NSFW, kids!). And we also have yet another Kids Corner review with Nate in which he talks about "M3GAN" (2022) with special guest Gabi.

Season 9: Episode 75: That Ray Dennis Steckler Retrospective Part 1!
Recorded on Saturday January 14th, Sunday January 15th and Sunday February 5th, 2023. Welcome to 2023, fans! That Horror SHow Podcast begins this brand new year with yet another retrospective, this time on a particular filmmaker who dabbled with the horror genre in his own unique ways: Ray Dennis Steckler! Regulated to near obscurity due to being a filmmaker that hinged outside of the "mainstream", Steckler's work is still ripe for rediscovery and re-evaluation, so your lovely hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig have decided to take the plunge into his works. First up is the film that most cult movie fans know of just by its title alone: "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies !!?" (1963), a movie that has gone down in history thanks to (or no thanks to) the Golden Turkey Awards as 'The Worst Film Ever Made', a claim that the hosts are willing to challenge. Second up is what some Steckler fans consider his minimalist masterpiece "The Thrill Killers" (1965), a weird combo of trapped-in-Hollywood-rat-race film noir meets psychopathic murderers on a bloody rampage in the tradition of "Psycho"! And third is not a horror movie but the jewel-in-the-crown of Steckler's form of improvised cinema "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo" (1966), which begins as a movie featuring three thugs involved in a kidnapping and ends as a...oh, comon', you just gotta listen to find out!!! Also on hand is Nate's 'Kids Corner' and gives his take on none other than the Season 4 finale of 'Stranger Things'!

(THSP Classic Episode!) Season 2: Episode 20: That Black Christmas Holiday Special!
(THSP Classic Episode!) Originally recorded Tuesday December 13th, 2016 with a original air date of December 20th, 2016.   Happy Holidays, fans! That Horror Show Podcast is back with a very special Christmas-themed episode for you horror movie lovers out there. Yes, the Christmas tree is up with all the trimmings, the stockings are hung by the fireplace, and the eggnog with an extra pinch of brandy is ready to be consumed. And yes, that annoying little ‘Elf on the Shelf’ has been tied up and locked in the closet where he should be! Anyways, join in on the festivities as hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig review two holiday horror movies: “Black Christmas” and…well, "Black Christmas”. That’s right, Tim and Chris sing their praises over the Bob Clark classic “Black Christmas” (1974), as well as offer their grievances over Glen Morgan’s remake “Black Christmas” (2006).   But wait, there’s more: Tim and Chris also offer their favorite non-horror themed Christmas movies. Listen in as Chris talks a bit about his holiday favorites “Bad Santa” (2003), “Scandal” (1950) and “Larceny Inc.” (1942), while Tim reveals his holiday pleasures “The Long Kiss Goodnight” (1996), “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” (1989) and “It’s a Wonderful Life” (1946). Consider this little segment a hybrid of the ‘What Have We Watched’ segment that you all know and love (and, in case if you are wondering, we will be bringing that segment back for next year’s episodes, we promise!).    #BlackChristmas #BobClark #THSP
