Spooktalkular Episode 18 is history.  Even with a sick Laura, we manage to get another episode of the show out.  This one has been the toughest episode to date to edit and prep for release.  In addition to Laura not feeling well, we had technical difficulties which caused some of the audio to be corupted.

Before we get rolling, we have some thanks to shout out.  Be sure to check out www.para-x.com.  Dave and Tom run a first class network over there with over 50 paranormal shows.  You’ll find something you like at para-x.com.  Also, our friends over at www.backtofrankblack.com have launched an incredible podcast named “Millennium Group Sessions”.  The latest episode has a cool interview with Marshall Bell who played the Judge in the episode of the same title.  Be sure to check them out and watch the site for news.

You’re probably wondering what you can expect from this one.  Well, let me tell you.  We watched some movies.  We start out with an INCREDIBLE independent project that you’ve heard us mention before named “Methodic“.  With it, a new horror genre is created.  Meet the basher flick.  Or, should we say, “Meat the basher flick”?  After that, we talk about “The Uninvited”.

On to TV talk.  Since we didn’t do the show last week, we have two weeks worth of shows to discuss.  That leaves us with two episodes each of “Monster Quest”, “Paranormal State”, “UFO Hunters” and “Ghost Whisperer”.  Due to a schedule change *again* over at CBS, we only have one episode of “Harper’s Island” but wow, what an episode it was.

Here’s the episodes we talk about:

Monster Quest

Gigantic Killer Fish II – A look at an 1895 fish attack off the coast of Florida by a Goliath grouper, a massive fish that can weigh in at 1,500 lbs and a recent attack that may be evidence these dangerous fish are returning – then off to the freshwater lakes of Minnesota where attacks by the no less aggressive Muskie could be on the rise.

Isle of the Lost Tiger – A look at over 350 reports from the Australian island of Tasmania that claim a vicious predator, once thought to have hunted to extinction, has made a comeback – the Tasmanian Tiger, and how an Australian biologist is using preserved DNA of the animal in hopes of cloning a living specimen.

Ghost Whisperer

Endless Love -Melinda has to figure out how to plan for her wedding and help a young lady get vampires to leave her alone.

The Book of Changes – Melinda hopes she can protect her baby after a ghost visits her. Season Finale

Paranormal State

Three Like Mine – Heather, Matt and their three kids are being harassed nightly by an entity in their Indiana home. Heather has been shaken by a force that says, “Hey” –  as if trying to get her attention — followed by the phrase, “Three to nine.” Psychic medium Michelle Belanger helps decipher a message that may be connected to the original property owners. Meanwhile Ryan investigates one of the client’s personal connection to the paranormal.

Dead and Back – Viki suffered a brain aneurism that left her on the brink of death. She fears the experience may have opened her up to unwanted spirits in her Alabama home. When psychic/medium Chip Coffey feels a connection to a male entity with familial ties, the case takes an emotional and creepy turn. PRS also experiments with new magnetic-pulse technology.

UFO Hunters

UFO Relics – Investigating so-called “trace cases,” the team studies supposed physical evidence left behind after various UFO sightings, from a strange glass-like rock found in Poland, to an odd piece of metal a Missouri man claims to have found after it was dropped from a UFO.

Underwater Area 51 – The investigators monitor the activity of the AUTEC (Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center), which is used by the U.S. Navy for underwater research, but the increasing reports of UFO and USO activity surrounding the facility have lead to rumors the base is testing alien technology.

Harper’s Island

Thwak – Abby uncovers a secret obsession as the wedding rehearsal takes an unexpected turn.

Welcome back for another Spooktalkular.  We took a week off because of the holiday reruns but we’re back with new episodes.  First off, we start the show with a couple of movie reviews of the awesome movie “4th Dimension” and an old school sequal “Return to Sleepaway Camp“.  Then we move on to our normal TV shows.  This week, we’ve got “Estate of Panic”, “Ghost Hunters”, “UFO Hunters”, “Ghost Adventures” and “Ghost Whisperer”.  We share a quick update from the folks over at backtofrankblack.com and talk about an upcoming movie review of Methodic and interview with Methodic director Chris Notarile.  Check out the trailers this one looks like one that you shouldn’t miss.

During the show last week, I mentioned that I felt that I had deduced where the episode was shot.  This was done through a series of cross references of key points stated during the show.  Well, here are a couple of videos from YouTube for your entertainment.

Gobble gobble!!!  Happy Thanksgiving from Laura and Frank.  We thought that we would whip out another episode while we preped our turkeys for the big day tomorrow.  We start out discussing the latest ratings.  We debut the brand new Spooktalkular promo and even do movie reviews of Twilight and Hellboy 2: The Golden Army.  We even have news about the latest Sleepaway Camp sequel.

We also discuss the Millennium movie effort being mounted by the good folks over at backtofrankblack.com.  If you’re not familiar with the Millennium series of the late 90′s, you should really check it out.  The promo for the effort will be a regular on Spooktalkular since we are both big fans.

Moving on to television, we take a look at “Ghost Hunters”, “Ghost Whisperer”, “Estate Of Panic”, “Ghost Adventures” and lastly “UFO Hunters”.

This episode ran a little long at about one hour thirteen minutes but it’s a fairly good one.  Be sure to check back this weekend because we should be back on schedule this week.

Special thanks to ScottL from over at Ghostly Talk for his technical assistance with some tips for phone interviews.  If you’re not listening to Ghostly Talk, you really should be.

Another week and another Spooktalkular.  This week is episode 7 recorded on Sunday November 9th.  Good episode where we discuss the twist on “Ghost Whisperer” (Warning, Spoilers included).  We also discuss the “Ghost Adventures” episode in the Riddle House in West Palm, Florida.  We took in the movie “The Haunting of Molly Hartley” so we briefly discuss it.

The bulk of the show is dedicated to the discussion of the “Ghost Hunters” live Halloween episode at Fort Delaware.  This week a YouTube video “TAPS LIES – Ghost Hunters Live – 2008 – Fraud-O-Rama” was released claiming fraud on the part of “Ghost Hunters”.  We review the video and take a look at Jason and Grant’s responses as posted on their MySpace pages.  While you’re at it, check out “The Top Ten Best Video Clips From Ghost Hunters (TAPS)”.  It’s the one we mentioned it during the show.

Keep listening for more details on our upcoming giveaway.
