Released on June 20, 1975 to a massive 464 screens (that was big back then!) Steven Spielberg's blockbuster thriller instilled fear along beaches everywhere and ignited the summer movie phenomenon. We revisit this classic tale and discuss the different aspects of what we think still makes Jaws one of the greatest films of all time.

In this episode we talk with Alleb Alberson, Editor in Chief at Captain Creepy. Allen is launching a print publication that will feature horror reviews from new and published authors, news and short stories. He joins Anthony DeRouen, Al Omega and Kevin Nickelson to discuss his inspiration behind the project and what obstacles he's faced along the way. Join us!

Warm tidings horror fans. Today we bring you a mixed show. Originally we planned to share our thoughts about Final Destination: Bloodlines, but word spread about famed composer Lalo Schifrin’s passing, so we wanted to touch on that too. Lalo was responsible for a number of iconic works including the theme song to The Amityville Horror and Mission:Impossible. Rest in peace Mr. Schifrin.

Day 2 of Sinister Creature Con was just as busy as the first. A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth, pick up free posters and flyers, and signed up for our bi-annual newsletter.

First up is the venerable scream queen Danielle Harris. A veteran of both Halloween franchises Danielle Harris has starred in a dizzying array of popular horror films including Hatchet, Shiver, ChromeSkull, and Night of the Living Dead: Darkest Dawn, to name a few.

We touch on a few films including her upcoming flick Last Chance Motel, also starring Scout Taylor-Compton. (interview starts at around 00:00:52)

Dave Barclay joins us next. Covered in memorable Yoda photos, Dave's table was a hotbed of activity and for good reason. He helped bring one of the most cherished characters in film to life. His puppeteer work with Yoda is just scratching the surface.

Dave chronicled his life's work in his book "My Life With Animatronics. Movies, Puppets and Beyond" now available at https://coolwatersprods.com/ . (interview starts at around 00:14:04)

Mitch Eason, writer of Chainsaw Angels, talks about his debut comic book which is proving to be an excellent read. Chainsaw Angels follows a popular trend of using the term zombie to categorize his antagonists while twisting the enemy into his own vision, much the same way Danny Boyle did in 28 Days Later. Zombies, but different.

Mitch has more planned for the series, so we suggest jumping into this one now. (interview starts at around 00:24:40)

Our final interview of the Con is with Mike Hernandez of Killer Clowns from Outer Space fame. Mike Hernandez has made a career of stunt car driving and speaks on his work in various films. Mike's work as a stuntman is one of the more critical roles a film crew member is tasked with, and like Dave Barclay they bring movies to life. (interview starts at around 00:36:18) .

The Grim and Bloody Podcast will be back at Sinister Creature Con (with an even bigger presence!) October 18th and 19th at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center. Visit https://www.facebook.com/sinistercreaturecon/ for more.

We bestow upon you Day 1 of Sinister Creature Con! As expected the convention hall was jammed packed.

Things fired up with Michael Hargrove, an award-winning actor of the theater who earned the role of Candyman in director Nia DaCosta’s new iteration of Candyman (2021). While initially approaching the role as he did others Michael soon learned the importance of the film with fans of the franchise and his overwhelmingly positive impact on keeping Candyman alive.

Next we have Nicholas Walls, author of The Butcher's Tale. Published in 2018 and clocking in at 298 pages, The Butcher's Tale is a highly recommended yarn that encompasses elements of graphic horror, science fiction and a dystopian future reminiscent of Cyberpunk. We're currently engrossed in this novel and will have a thorough review soon. (interview at around 00:11:36)

Friend of the podcast and author Josh Hancock joins us next. Josh brings the full complement of his work including his latest The Slicker Man! (interview at around 00:22:28)

Rounding out the day we have Michael Thygesen , Production Coordinator for Future Explorers stopping by to talk about their found footage short The Grove. Future Explorers aims to foster creativity in intellectual and developmental disability persons of all ages. (interview at around 00:28:54)

Kevin and Al have a full room to talk about Chinese Speaking Vampires (2021) and the soon to be released Kung Fu Slayers. Joining is us Nancy Norton, Michelle Alexandria, Davy Williams, and John W. Harris.

In Chinese Speaking Vampires a desperate actor becomes a vampire and uses his new powers to land a movie role and the girl, but then must choose between life and the undead.

In 2001 C. Ernst Harth portrayed the Great Child, a massive display of man and revulsion. The film was a smash hit and C. Ernst's name was on the map.

During our talk the actor remarks how most if not all of the monsters in 13 Ghosts didn't have backstories but you can read the story about The Great Child here: https://13ghosts.fandom.com/wiki/The_Great_Child .

We had a wonderful conversation about why 13 Ghosts remains so popular, and we think you'll enjoy listening!
