Doom Asylum 1988
Doom Asylum. A movie where the gore is cheap, the jokes are cheaper, and the killer looks like he wandered in from a dental malpractice lawsuit. It’s a slasher that feels like someone dared a film crew to make a horror‑comedy during their lunch break… and they said ‘bet.’
Children of the Corn 1984
Welcome back to Deadnotes, the podcast where we dig up cult horror, dust it off, and scream into the mic until the neighbors call the cops. Today we’re heading straight into the cornfields—yeah, those endless rows of Midwest nightmare fuel—because we’re talking Children of the Corn. That’s right, the movie that taught us two things: never trust kids with biblical obsessions, and never, ever take a road trip through Nebraska without a backup plan.
Sleepaway Camp 1983
Welcome to Deadnotes—the horror podcast that packs a flashlight, forgets the bug spray, and always dies first in the canoe.Tonight, we’re pitching our tent in the blood-soaked woods of Sleepaway Camp, the 1983 slasher that asks: what if summer camp had fewer s’mores and more trauma?We’ve got it all—awkward teens, crop tops tighter than the plot, and a twist ending that made VHS players across America pause in stunned silence. Seriously, if you know, you know. If you don’t… buckle up, buttercup.We’ll roast the kills, toast the tropes, and dig into the behind-the-scenes madness that turned this low-budget oddball into a cult classic with one of horror’s most infamous final shots.So grab your whistle, dodge the curling iron, and remember: at Camp Arawak, the counselors are sketchy, the cook is worse, and the lake is just one big murder magnet.This is Deadnotes. Let’s get weird.
Blood Diner 1987
This 1987 splatter-comedy fever dream is what happens when you take a dash of H.G. Lewis, a pinch of vegan cannibalism, and a whole lot of neon-lit absurdity, then toss it in a blender with a brain and hit purée. Directed by Jackie Kong, Blood Diner isn’t just a spiritual sequel to Blood Feast—it’s a full-on punk rock exorcism of genre norms, packed with wrestling, brain burgers, and a goddess named Sheetar who’s got a serious hunger for human flesh.So grab your meat cleaver, crank up the synths, and prepare for a deep dive into one of the most gloriously unhinged horror comedies ever served. This is Deadnotes, and tonight... we dine in blood. 🍔🩸
