Horror Movie Podcast Ep. 225: Celebrating the 10-Year Anniversary of Horror Movie Podcast

Horror Movie Podcast Ep. 225: Celebrating the 10-Year Anniversary of Horror Movie Podcast

Welcome to Horror Movie Podcast, where we’re Dead Serious About Horror Movies. Episode 001 launched on October 25, 2013. And we recently hit the decade mark on October 25, 2023. For this episode, the owner of HMP, Pastor Matt Rawlings, has assembled all the hosts to celebrate the 10-year anniversary. He asked emeritus host, Jay of the Dead, to plan the agenda and moderate this episode. Jay also produced this particular show. All the hosts of HMP are present, and they include The VelociPastor himself, Pastor Matt Rawlings; Jackson “The Ripper” Rawlings; The Night Stalker Nathan Bartlebaugh; Vicious Victor “The Hellcat” Rodriguez; Bloodspray Trey Whetstone; as well as the HMP hosts emeriti: Dr. Shock, The Wolfman, Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop, Gillman Joel, and Jay of the Dead.

During the course of this episode, Jay poses three questions to his co-hosts that all pertain to Horror movie releases from October 25, 2013, and October 25, 2023. Here they are: What was the most haunting Horror movie? Which Horror film has been the most “important” or most influential for the Horror genre as a whole? And which Horror film do you want to personally champion because it is a surprisingly unknown Horror gem? Also, be sure to keep listening through the very end because Pastor Matt regales us with a creepy, real-life Campire Tale about demonic possession! Yikes!

Note: This 10-year anniversary celebration episode is releasing through the usual Horror Movie Podcast website and feed, as well as the feed for Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies.

This episode is dedicated to all the fans of Horror Movie Podcast.
