Ominous Origins

Slashers: Part Two

In this episode I go into more of the Slasher craze, highlighting the genre during it's "Golden Years" from 1978-1984. I look at all the big hitters from Jason to Michael, and all the little ones in between. Also, we have a winner for the free print contest! I'll be messaging that person very shortly.

Slashers Pt. 1

In this podcast episode I delve deep into the origins and history of the slasher flick! It's that time of year again where all the closeted horror fans don't shy away from letting their spook flag fly. So I thought It's be the perfect time to look into what makes a slasher film, what separates it from other horror films, and some of the icons behind it, like Michael Myers of Halloween, Jason Voorhees of Friday the 13th, or of course Freddy Krueger of A Nightmare on Elm Street. Of course I take a look at some lesser known films from the 60's and early 70's which very well may have been the catalysts for what we have today.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/Ominous-Origins-1.

Season 2! Horror in art

Welcome back to the Horror Shots Podcast! I'm terribly sorry for the hiatus, but I'm hoping to be back forever now, on Tuesday nights. I've changed up the format a bit, as you'll hear. But I simply don't have the time to put into research and developing scripts. I'll still try to keep it insightful though.
