Meanwhile, Over At Dread Media....#622

Some things have to be addressed head-on, no matter how painful the experience may be...and for this episode, it takes not one, not two but three co-hosts to help Des navigate these dark water.  Can Adam, Jeff and Scott keep our Master of Scarimonies when he visits the 2006 Neil LaBute monstrosity, The Wicker Man.   We’ll see if four minds can figure out how one of the greatest films of all time (there, I said it--but of Ron Hardy’s 1973 original) was reworked into one of the most notoriously bad pieces of film that ever existed.  Then I come by to pay tribute to the late Rutger Hauer by covering the 1989 American Action Version of Zatoichi, Blind Fury!

The trailers are below, as is Nicholas Cage and Neil LaBute trying to sell us on the misbegotten baby they birthed, the Zatoichi theme song, and Iron Maiden’s official video for ‘The Wicker Man!’
