74 - The Divemistres Apologizes for Neowolf

This week's episode was recorded quite some time ago and was intended to be episode 73, but then that didn't happen.  The Divemistress begins by offering an apology for the movie Neowolf.  Not that she had anything to do with the film, but still she's sorry.  If things weren't bad enough, The DM gives The Human Centipede a positive review.  The Count is given two minutes to complain about V, but The DM can't resist talking alien religion so they carry on a bit.  It's a spoiler-tastic episode, so if you were planning on watching Neowolf, Broken, or Paranormal Entity, save yourself the time and listen on TheAvod instead.  Tune in to hear the lamest shout-out ever!

In the poll "Shark vs Lion vs Crocodile", most of you chose shark.  Crocodile came in second, and lion, sadly, took third place.  These results indicate a clear bias for aquatic and semi-aquatic animals.

73 - MisogynyWatch!

This week's Avod was recorded nearly a month ago, thus the timeliness of the issues discussed is, well, no longer so timely.  Still The DM provides what turns out to be an auspicious review of the Happy Town pilot, given the show was recently canceled.  Because Count Vardulon picked the movies, they turn out to be either about hating women (which is bad) or giant crocodiles (which are good), but he sort of makes up for the whole misogyny thing by telling a story about how much cooler he is than most other gamers.

72 - Pretentious Quotes...With a Twist!

This week on TheAvod Count Vardulon and The Divemistress discuss some critical reaction to PD's NOES.  After that, they taste test two-and-a-half movies about cannibalism, the excellent Ravenous, the middling Van Diemen's Land, and the regrettable Necrosis.  Are The Count and the DM for or against the consumption of long pig?  Tune in to find out!

Poll Results: Most of you thought the new NOES was "unimaginative" while opinions were split on whether it was "boring" or "fucking awful".

71 - Turns Out Freddy Actually Is Dead

This week your friends Count Vardulon and The Divemistress devote the hour to PD's remake of beloved 80s classic, A Nightmare on Elm Street.  Unsurprisingly, the remake turns out to be not-beloved.

Poll results: The original NOES, by a wide margin, was the favourite movie in the franchise.  Second-favourite was NOES 3, and rounding-out the top three (the only three that got any votes, as a matter of fact) was New Nightmare.

70 - Kruegerama!

Just in time for the much-anticipated Platinum Dunes remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, Count Vardulon and The Divemistress take an in-depth look at the NOES franchise.  They're very happy to be joined by B-Sol of The Vault of Horror, the Internet's foremost expert on Nightmare.

69 - The Least Kick Ass Show

*Due to some technical difficulties, the sound quality is a bit off.  We apologize and are working to fix the problem for future episodes.

Pictured: badass.

This week on TheAvod, Count Vardulon and The Divemistress forgo the random crap and get right to the good stuff, complaining some more about V.  Having finally finished watching Death Comes to Town, the two review the Kids In The Hall mini-series Death Comes to Town.  Because The DM did such a good job running down short films last week, she and The Count watch review another short the Call of Cthulhu.  The feature-length films on the docket run the gamut from Canadian indie to Japanese western, to American derivative crap.  Good times!

Results from last weeks poll (because The Count and The DM totally forgot to announce them): You all agreed the new Freddy make-up is not good.  Isn't it great when we all get along?

This week's Avod opens with a very happy birthday to Ron Perlman!  Your friends Count Vardulon and The Divemistress then move on to talk about blogging etiquette, and take a moment to yet again plug amazing film Lake Mungo.  The DM closes the debate on whether CSI: Miami is actually filmed in Miami, which leads to a short review of some short films she saw at a local film festival.  Taking a look at babysitters in peril, The Count and The DM review When a Stranger Calls, Babysitter Wanted, and House of the Devil.  You may be surprised to found out which one was best.

Addendum: At the time of recording, Wishmaster won last week's poll. At the time of posting, there was a three-way tie between Wishmaster, Phantasm, and Leprechaun.  Still, Count Vardulon and The Divemistress will be watching all of Wishmaster for an upcoming show.
