Download the Splatcademy Awards

It’s three hours of awesome. Guaranteed to be more entertaining than the Oscars. You can read my thank you’s in the forum.

I hope there are no hideous mistakes due to lack of sleep…tell me tomorrow.

Tell your friends, enemies, lovers, and grandmothers.

Thanks again, and I hope you enjoy the show.

Hey everybody, Jeff here. I need to announce that, in the near future, the Splattercast is no longer going to be a weekly show. Please understand: We are not ending the show entirely, it just won’t be coming out every single week. The Third Annual Splatcademy Awards are still coming on March 8th and will be better than ever. We’re also still going to burn Swexas to the ground in a few weeks.

I’ll take all of the responsibility for this shake-up. I came to the other guys a while back and told them that I was getting burned out and needed a break. They were very understanding and agreed that it would be okay to switch things around a bit. For me, it’s all about a lack of time. It’s gotten more and more difficult for me to find the time to do all of the work that goes into a decent podcast, especially on a weekly basis. I hope to regroup and figure out a schedule that I can handle. I really do think the Splattercast is a damned fine show when we’re on our game.

In the meantime, I am very excited that we will soon be expanding our roster of podcasts. We’re adding at least two new shows and maybe even more down the road. Mat is heading up The Blackfoot Lounge, which will focus on slasher films of the 70s-80s, and Explodey Jo will be debuting a new show paying homage to the X-Files. I’m trying to get Steve & Deejay to do a relationship advice podcast as well, but we’ll see. I’m also kicking around an idea for a hentai and MTG podcast (just kidding! or am I?) All of these new shows will appear in the existing Splattercast RSS feed so it should be very easy for everyone to check out all of the new stuff without any extra hassle.

Thank you very much for continuing to visit us here at Dead Lantern! Oh, and a little plug for our forum – it’s been more active than ever over the past couple of weeks so check it out.

Episode is ready for download

At over 2.5 hours, this might officially be the longest Splattercast ever. With special co-host Vaughn of Motion Picture Massacre, we cover almost every horror film made by British director Pete Walker. These films were totally new to us and it made for a really interesting show. Films we take a look at: Die Screaming, Marianne (1971), The Flesh and Blood Show (1972), House of Whipcord (1974), Frightmare (1974), House of Mortal Sin (1976), Schizo (1976), and House of Long Shadows (1983).

Enjoy!
