Gill & Roscoe's Bodacious Horror Podcast

On this week's Bodacious Horror Podcast, Gill and Roscoe are joined by Welsh video game enthusiast, evil twin and genuine nerd Thomas Hughes to discuss the most nightmarish horrors ever committed to pixel, their adaptations to the big screen and Hollywood's subsequent influence on the survival horror genre. We focus on "Alone In the Dark" (2005), "Silent Hill" (2006) and "Resident Evil" (2002) with reference to the sequels, parallels with the original games and the influences at play for both game and movie. This may be our most fact-heavy episode ever, thanks primarily to the Rocky-esque training Thomas put himself through in preparation for this episode. You lucky people.

On this week's Bodacious Horror Podcast, Gill & Roscoe are joined by a very special guest, the comedian and broadcaster Robin Ince. Backstage at his sold out show at Glasgow's The Stand comedy club, Gill & Roscoe chat to Robin about the Halloween series, Morrissey and being mates with the keyboard player from D:Ream. Amongst all that we somehow manage to find the time to discuss the work of Val Lewton, particularly "Cat People" (1942), as well as the exploitation classic "The Baby" (1972). As if that wasn't enough we also discuss "Maniac" (2013) with our friend Rick from the band Dressed Like Wolves.

This week, Gill and Roscoe reflect on Chan-wook Park's magnificent "Stoker" (2013), as well as two selections from The Netflix, "The Traveler" (2010) and "Heartless" (2010). We also reveal our forthcoming very special guests, and schmooze like the bloated media parasites we once so despised and have now become. Gill has been drinking absinthe and it shows. Roscoe has been drinking coffee and he's slightly less miserable than normal. Only slightly. Random tangents are many and varied as always, and the boundaries of taste and decency are once again abused and left for dead.

This week, Gill and Roscoe make good on their threats and discuss the "unholy trinity" of the slasher era - Freddy, Jason and Michael. Being dedicated contrarians we focus not on the most obvious (i.e. actually good) entries in the series, but instead wander from the path to discuss their most offbeat offerings, including "Halloween V: The Revenge of Michael Myers" (1989), "Jason Lives" (1986), "A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge" (1985) and "Freddy vs Jason" (2003).

This week Gill & Roscoe are joined by our dear friend Ross Gilchrist to celebrate our 25th episode and discuss the work of horror icon, Christopher Lee. We've carefully selected some of the finest pictures from Lee's vast filmography (or more accurately, we've watched any old nonsense we could easily lay our hands on from our collections), including "The Blood of Fu Manchu" (1968), "Dracula Has Risen from the Grave" (1968), "The Scars of Dracula" (1970), "The Devil Rides Out" (1968) and "The Wicker Man" (1973). Gill watched an astonishing 24 hours of Christopher Lee-related content this week, so I think you all know who your "Phone A Friend"'s going to be should Chris Tarrant ever hit you with a Hammer question. Along the way we also discuss current horror hit "Mama", comic books, video games and, unsurprisingly, a little bit of Lovecraft. If all of that wasn't exciting enough, we also received a lovely voicemail from indie-horror icon, Daytime Emmy winner and star of the internet sensation "Take This Loll

In this week's Bodacious Horror Podcast, Gill and Roscoe find themselves out of their depth and culture shocked in the land of the rising sun. We discuss a selection of movies suggested by some of our most loyal (and persistent) listeners including "Ultimate Versus" (2004), "Audition" (1999) and "Deathnote" (2006). As ever, discussions head off-road pretty quickly, taking in Thundercats action figures, dancing with a dog to Hawkwind and animal print fleeces. Throughout the show we'll also be playing the entries for our "America Mary" competition, and we'll announce the winner at the end of the show...

This week, and just in time for Valentine's, Gill and Roscoe discuss movies involving tainted love with femme fatales in the lead role, including "Deadgirl" (2008), "Excision" (2012) and "The Loved Ones" (2009). Our own increasing difficulties maintaining relationships with the world are over-shared, before potentially explaining our circumstances by discussing "The Aristocrats" joke, an improper use of jam and two people called Davie Dodds who have absolutely nothing to do with anything.

This week, Gill and Roscoe go 'meta' as the kids say, and discuss a few films which have extra layers to them. We get all 'Yo Dawg! I heard you like horror movies, so I put a horror movie in your horror movie' with "Popcorn" (1991), visit the alternate reality of mockumentary "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon" (2006) and spoiler the heck out of "The Cabin in the Woods" (2011) from 00:49:00 until 01:11:34. We eat some pizza and launch our first ever competition, where you could win a copy of "American Mary" (2012) signed by the Soska sisters. Also, Gill declares war on a country - but you'll have to listen to find out which one.

This week, Gill and Roscoe get "the key to the door" as the show turns 21... It's also the hairy one's 36th birthday and to celebrate we're joined by Ross Gilchrist and Mark McKeown to discuss horror musicals including "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" (1975), "The Phantom of the Paradise" (1974) and "Repo! The Genetic Opera" (2008) (some of which were, in truth, pretty horrific anyway).

In this episode of Gill & Roscoe's Bodacious Horror Podcast, Roscoe forgot to write the description - which he usually does. That means Gill has written this one, and doesn't want to give too much away. We talk about short movie "Dysmorphia" (2012), "Railway Children" (2012), "Mr. Bricks: A Heavy Metal Murder Musical" and "American Mary" (2012). We do our first ever interview via the internet, with Travis Campbell and Justin Martell from Troma. We ramble about stuff, as usual, and we stayed awake way past our bedtime. Oh yeah, we also kick off with a surprise guest. I wonder who that could be, can you guess?

In this episode of Gill & Roscoe's thing of the thing, your hapless hosts take on the three cinematic treatments of John W. Campbell Jr's "Who Goes There" - namely "The Thing from Another World" (1957), "The Thing" (1982) and "The Thing" (2011). In-keeping with the "Thing" theme we also discuss the vaguely racist "The Thing with Two Heads" (1972) as well as a number of other typically unrelated 'things' including Star Wars fan-edits, Seasonal Affective Disorder(Gill)/Sexy Podcasters(Roscoe) and the dreadful(Roscoe)/brilliant(Gill) MOR(Roscoe)/Inspiring(Gill) jazz-metal of Mike Patton. No hamsters were harmed in the making of this podcast, but one toilet roll tube was irreparably damaged.

This week the Bodacious Horror Podcast goes off the rails. We discuss TV detective shows (including the infamous Quincy punk rock episode), our favourite (abysmal) comedy show Two Broke Girls and the KLF. We also spend (some) time talking about some rotten movies including one about a vampire-angel, one about a chef who turns out to be the killer and one about a New Wave tv show or some shit. We also saw "Christine" (1983) but I don't think we talked about it. If you're still subscribed after this episode, congratulations - you've passed the test!

In the second of our seasonal specials, Gill and Roscoe discuss the recent remake of "Silent Night" (2012), the Finnish indie-horror treat "Rare Exports" (2011), Frank Capra's evergreen festive favourite "It's a Wonderful Life" (1946) and the blackest of black comedies, in "Christmas Evil" (1980) (AKA Lewis Jackson's "You'd Better Watch Out"). If you'd like to contact us, write us a letter in your best handwriting and chuck it in the fire. Alternatively you can find us on Twitter or Facebook. Oh, and if you leave your door open on Christmas Eve be sure to leave some whisky and a cookie out for Roscoe...

This week Gill and Roscoe go double-Dickens (...steady...) for the first of our Xmassacre Specials. We discuss a feast of festive frighteners including "A Ghost Story for Christmas: the Signal-man" (1976), "Black Christmas" (1974) and "Scrooge" (1951). We conclude with "Silent Night Deadly Night" (1984) and it's eyebrow- raising (and some might say stroke-inducingly bad) sequel "Silent Night Deadly Night Part 2" (1987). If you'd like to be forever consigned to the naughty list, why not join us on Twitter (@BodaciousHorror and @GillRockatansky), or find us on Facebook. All previous episodes are also now available to stream from www.bodacioushorror.tk and www.horrorphilia.com .

This week Gill & Roscoe get Tromatized! Between us we watched a Herculean 20 movies from the Troma oeuvre including "Troma's War" (1988), "Tromeo & Juliet" (1997), "Terror Firmer" (1999), "Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead" (2006) and "Father's Day" (2011). Along the way we also discuss Nymphoid Barbarians, the music of Smokey Miles AKA Count Smokula, and children's faces indelibly covered in green ink. Gill gives us his best impression of Bane from Batman 3, and another of Roscoe's Downfall-like rants at Gill gets erased from history forever.

This week, the Bodacious Horror Podcast gets sleazy with an episode dedicated to modern takes on the Grindhouse experience. We discuss "Nude Nuns With Big Guns" (2010), "Machete" (2010) and "Grindhouse" (2007). We get waylaid along the way and talk Astron-6's "Lazer Ghosts 2: Return to Laser Cove", drop some names and act like the kind of arrogant, bloated media types we're fast becoming.

This week, Gill & Roscoe attempt to turn in their first ever PG-13 episode as they discuss "Ghostbusters" (1984), "Gremlins" (1984) and "Paranorman" (2012). Will it be a triumph or a Thanksgiving turkey? We (kind of) talk about Jamie D. Jenkins' short "Secret Shopper" (2012), but end up talking about Gill's sub-par performance as a pizza monkey.

This week Gill & Roscoe venture into the deranged mind of the Italian master of the macabre Lucio Fulci. The Gates of Hell have been kicked open, and as prophesied in the Book of Enoch the BoHoPo boys try to wrap their heads around the insane plots of "City of the Living Dead" (1980), "The Beyond" (1981) and "The House by the Cemetery" (1981). It's all very confusing but we're fairly sure we enjoyed the films. We also discussed the excellent Argentinian short "Deus Irae" (2010).

This week your amiable hosts get all Lycanthropic, with discussions of "The Howling" (1981), "An American Werewolf In London" (1981) and "Dog Soldiers" (2002). Gill fills us in on his recent visit to the 1990s, whilst Roscoe gets opinionated about the slipping standards of regional terrestrial broadcasting. We also discuss Gav Chuckie Steel's indie horror epic "The Shadow of Death" and get depressed about the overly paced trailer for "World War Z".

This week's landmark 10th episode takes us backs to the root of the genre. We discuss the big three Universal monsters, "Dracula (1931)", "Frankenstein (1931)" and "The Wolf Man (1941)" as well their swansong picture "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)". In a new segment Gill & Roscoe attempt to summon the undead spirit of "The Uncanny" Boris Karloff, who may or may not turn up with some beer, a fishing rod and some chicken.
