It’s been over half a year but finally a
second volume of Bits, Pieces, and Body Parts arrives. Yet with this
edition we have a bit of a change. Unlike the prior episode, Episode
014, where your cohosts were live discussing genre news and reviewing a
film immediately after viewing it at the local theater, this new volume
is a mish mash of various subjects and topics.
First off cohosts Gordon and Philip
discuss some of your favorite horror icons as was the case in Episode
038, Iconic Characters in Horror. Here a short conversation on Friday
the 13th’s Jason Voorhees commences before moving on to a detailed talk
of the somewhat overlooked Tony Todd larger than life monster, The
Candyman.
Next, fantasy and zombie author Elaine
Isaak and thriller author K.D. Mason are interviewed, discussing their
novels and what’s coming next. Both will autograph any copies of their
novels that are purchased from their websites.
Continuing, Thomas Newman, the director of
the zombie film Bong of the Dead and the upcoming zombie western
Deadsville, is interviewed where he discusses the home video release of
his debut film (February 21st , 2012) and an exciting synopsis of his
highly anticipated follow up. Afterwards author Charles Day chats about
his debut novel, The Legend of the Pumpkin Thief, which brings the
spirit of Halloween together with the nostalgia of a Steven Spielberg
movie. Lastly, cohost Eric and Philip interview the owners of Fatal
Pictures, Zach Green and Richard Powell, specifically discussing their
half hour psychological horror films Worm (to become a feature length
production) and Familiar, to be given its world premier at Toronto
Frightfest March 2nd, 2012. Familiar will be introduced by Fangoria
magazine and the presentation will let the audience meet and greet the
film makers.
