On our 147th show we are once again paying homage to a recently lost treasure. We lost Roger Corman at the age of 98. The amount of talent that was realised through his projects is innumerable . The man was a Hollywood Kingmaker. Nobody could make a film as quick and as cheap as Roger Corman yet he still produced solid, entertaining films. We hope you enjoy as we give the Horror 101 Treatment to Corman's classic The Masque of the Red Death from 1964, starring Vincent Price.

Welcome Horror 101 Listeners! We have another podcast for you. This time we're going back to 1980 and reaching into the Nasty Bag for another Italian Splatterfest. Two episodes back we had such a good time covering Zombie from 1979, we decided to focus on another Fulci classic. This would be the first of his Gates of Hell Trilogy. Starring Catriona MacColl and Christopher George, this movie breaks all the rules and gives you a demented acid trip of demonic mayhem with supernatural violence that was completely over the top. Love it or hate it, you will never forget seeing this picture! Join us as we give the Horror 101 Treatment to Lucio Fulci's City of the Living Dead.

Greetings Horror Fans! For our 145th episode we're spotlighting a new Australian film from the Cairnes Bros. This is an excellent example of independent horror being done correct. This movie has masterful performances and an authentic retro 70s style that delivers a tense and fascinating faux reality experience.
