ABOUT THIS EPISODE:

On this episode, I will be having a roundtable discussion with fellow Morbidly Beautiful writer Richard Tanner and Filmmakers Mi Chelle Nessk and Danielle Page as we will talk about the recent controversial statements made by Jason Blum of BlumHouse Productions about women directors, especially as it pertains to the horror genre.

I will be playing the Devil’s Advocate in this episode and will be defending his statements in the sense that I feel that there are some hidden truths in what he said and that he is being unfairly targeted by many on social media. It will be an interesting conversation to say the least, but I certainly hope listeners take some interesting viewpoints away from this topic!

In our Digital Dismemberment Spotlights this evening, we will be covering the theatrical/screener release of THE CHURCH starring Bill Moseley, as well as Artsploitation Films online screener of Trauma.

In our Metal Massacre Spotlights, we will be featuring Cattle Decapitation, Whitechapel and Cannibal Corpse!
