Mitchell Whitt from the "Morbidly Macabre" podcast and I conclude our conversation about 2008's "Dance of the Dead". We talk about its strong and beyond appropriate gore effects, how it stacks up against other zombie comedies like "Fido" and "Dead Snow", and how we have to get the theater business, at least on the Champaign/Urbana level, ready to blow the minds of those who will coming back to Ebert Fest.

There are some tangents like all good podcast should have, and I was a little bit naughtier than I should have been when it came to explicit language. Fear not irresponsible parents. All of the words used on this finalized podcast have been featured on Public Broadcast Stations. Oh how I love the importing of British comedy. It is silly that it is a good thing for BBC America to have lost its way.

 

And I will say, it was a relevant weekend when it came to this podcast. Mitchell had just gotten married on Saturday (I am sure his registry on Amazon and Target have some items they could use that their guests did not claim.). Finding out about Mitchell's family living in Jacksonville lead to a New Jack story (Rest in Peace). And to further display my knowledge of low-budget zombie movies, I revisited "Last Rites of the Dead" a.k.a. "Zombies Anonymous".

I also got to listen to the latest "Morbidly Macabre" episode about the Columbine School Shooting. If you really want to know what makes Mitchell tick, it is a must listen. As for the history of the topic, they nail down all the important details while walking a dangerous line of when or not empathy may have been warranted for the two boys.

You really get to know the two of us, me on deeper level, and our love for cinema. And we share our depression about The Art Theater no longer being in operation. If you want to suggest some means to resolve this issue or be a podcast guest (You just need a sub 100-minute movie as this episode shows.) send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com.

And for those who recall "The Student of the Game", there is a bit of wrestling talked about at the end of the cast. If you still are not aware of my thoughts about Chris Benoit and the Hart family tragedies, this is your opportunity. I wonder if it helps explain my sympathy towards certain wrestlers who seem to be persona non grata when there are plenty of other wrestlers who inspire questions who still get to make a living. That will be a blog for another time on MainEventOfTheDead.com.

A guest has been lined up for next week's episode, tentatively about the sub 100-minute filmography of Adam Sandler. Was it all down hill from "Punch Drunk Love" to "Uncut Gems"? We will find out. Thanks for visiting.
