Seoul of the Dead: K-Horror Triple Threat

Don’t Go in the Room… Or the Woods… Or the Teachers’ Lounge

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2570337/fan_mail/new] Hey everyone, it’s your old pal here on Dad Bod of Horror. This week I’m sitting in my chair with a soda and talking through three horror flicks that stuck with me. We kick things off with Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining (1980) — that slow-burn masterpiece where Jack Nicholson loses his mind in the Overlook Hotel. Then we roll into Pumpkinhead (1988), a gritty ’80s creature revenge story that’s got that raw backwoods feel. And finally, I dig into the nasty little indie slasher Teacher Shortage (2020), which takes all the stress of being a teacher and turns it into straight-up bloody chaos. If you’ve seen any of these or just want to hear an old man rant about classic scares and modern bloodbaths, grab your headphones and join me. Tune in, folks. And don’t forget to lock the doors… especially if you’re a substitute teach

Blitzkrieg of the Damned: Overlord, Dead Snow & Horrors of War

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2570337/fan_mail/new] In this episode, we dive headfirst into the frozen trenches of Nazi horror with a triple feature of undead Reich terror. We break down Overlord (2018) — J.J. Abrams’ explosive WWII action-horror about American paratroopers who stumble upon a secret Nazi experiment far worse than anything the battlefield can offer. Then we charge into the snowy Norwegian mountains with Dead Snow, the gory cult classic where a group of friends awaken an ancient army of Nazi zombies. Finally, we explore the grim, low-budget nightmare Horrors of War, which delivers brutal supernatural terror behind enemy lines. From goose-stepping zombies to mad science and wartime atrocities, we discuss what makes Nazi horror so disturbingly effective — and which of these films delivers the biggest scares and best kills. If you love your horror with a side of swastikas and the walking dead, this episode is for you.
