Troy kicks off his unhappy Rogerless month on a happy note by being joined by fellow filmmaker and podcaster Chris Moore, who graciously step into co-hosting duties.  The two hop in a garbage truck and trek to the teenage wasteland known as Camp New Horizons to discuss Angela Baker’s murderous shenanigans in the whacky third franchise entry Sleepaway Camp 3: Teenage Wasteland.  Join the guys as they ponder the apparent sex appeal of one Michael J. Pollard and chat characters steeped in stereotypes, a noticeable less energetic and engaging Angela, and a potentially epic showdown that goes kaput.  So fry up some freshly caught fish (steak if you’re allergic, blare your boombox and gather ‘round the campfire.  And if you enjoy the episode remember….sharing is caring!

An episode without the presence of the ample and curvaceous Troy Escamilla is a lofty task, but Roger enlists the support of “Bath Bomb” director (and source of knowledge regarding all things Giallo) Colin G Cooper to discuss the ever-celebrated 1975 Dario Argento masterpiece Deep Red! Colin leads Roger into the annals of Italian horror as they navigate the intricacies and subtle details of this truly exceptional piece of genre cinema! Join them as they discuss a variety of film related topics, including the appropriate times in which it’s completely acceptable to expose a woman’s breast on a camera,  the exact timeframe required to fill a king sized bathtub in real time, the 22 minutes of pure homoeroticism excluded from the international cut of the film and why we absolutely deserve to see them, and that glorious killer reveal that every gay horror fan lives for! Get yourselves ready, because this episode of Dark Night of the Podcast is coming at you like a murderous mechanical babydoll donning a tuxedo without any backstory or exposition! It’s time to get in deep… Deep Red that is!

For their 99th full length episode, Troy and Roger head on down to the Louisiana bayou where they prepare to tackle the illusive and practically forgotten 2005 slasher offering Venom, a title that all but faded into obscurity following its overwhelming unsuccessful release. Is the practically unanimous poor reception from reviewers and moviegoers alike for good reason, or is there a hidden gem here buried in a suitcase beneath the dirt along with all of those godawful cgi snakes? That’s for the gays to decide, so jump inside Ray Sawyers shitty old tow truck and listen along as they banter over their opinions on related topics such as whether or not facial scars make white trash truck drivers more or less appealing, the problems with introducing major points of character development that ultimately serve little to no purpose, the questionable decision of killing off all of the African American actors in a movie focused around the intricacies of voodoo, the ongoing curse that is Agnus Bruckner’s acting career, and the many MANY issues they have with the usage of CGI blood. So does Venom deserve the bad wrap, or can it be milked of all of that bad juju and earn its rightful place in the slasher hall of fame? You’ll just have to listen to find out! Tune in now, or else the boys will have to turn you into their very own human voodoo doll!
