Splattercast 83: Chronicles of an Owl Naming
June 17th, 2008 by MaT
This week, we read through some listener submitted dissertations of our show, review a new low-budget suckfest called Chronicles of an Exorcism, begin a new segment where we discuss the best horror films of each decade and then give the people what they’ve been waiting for: the naming of the Deadlantern mascot (?)
You wanted show prep. Now be content with boredom over humor ![]()

After this ep, there’s gonna be a great anti-show prep movement.

I have a bad feeling about this.
I’m going to listen to Episode 81 before and after just to cleanse myself of the preparation.

Enjoyed this episode, but it sounded like you guys weren’t having fun while you were recording it, which makes me sad! I feel like the kid that got the sweets she was begging her parents for, and ate too many and made herself sick.
By the way, you totally should have called the owl The Grand Hooter! What a quality name - who suggested that? They deserve a prize.

Here’s what you do-
Everybody EXCEPT DeeJay gets drunk for the podcast. Trust me, it’ll work!

“it sounded like you guys weren’t having fun while you were recording it”
it didn’t help that we were all dead tired.

I turned it off after the second loud BELCH…don’t need people burping in my ear repeatedly for any reason.
MaT said:
you can thank Deejay for being annoying
Fake Larry said:
Take a break if you need one, come back fresh.
We can listen to archives for awhile.

I thought it felt like the good ol’ episodes waaaaayy back when, when you reviewed shit like Invasion Arizona and Video Violence. Show prep anit bad. At the same time, some of the best eps have been the ones where you just ramble, like Ep. 68.

I could have done without the loud belches the entire damned weekend.
Keep in mind that Spooky and I are usually drunk as well. We just have better control over ourselves.

One of my favorite episodes was The Howling episode. Watch more terrible movies with a ton of terrible sequels. That episode was great.

I haven’t had a chance to listen yet so I’m dying to know what the owl’s name is.
<I hope that smiley works and “lol” doesn’t actually show up.
