  1. Alright Jay I got a request for you. I’m listening to WHMP (again) and you guys mention a “young guys vs old guys” Horror Palace special episode in Episode 9, and I think I remember you guys mentioning a “Slashers vs Zombies” Horror Palace special episode somewhere back then too…
    Do you know where I can find those if they still exist somewhere?

    I could not agree more on The Grudge (2020). I’m sad I spent time on this flick. Ya know, I still haven’t watched The Grudge (2004), but I watched Ju-On: The Grudge and enjoyed that a whole lot!

    (Also, I’m super stoked to listen to your Considering the Cinema sponsored DVD Infatuation Podcast, I just noticed it at the top of the site!!)

    • Never mind, just found them on Billchete’s site! I’ve never actually been over to his site, he has a very good archive (sadly I don’t think the old vs young guys special is on there, unless it’s the 12 way intro thing that I’m about to listen to).

      Hope you are doing well!

      • Hi Shenanigan!
        Please forgive my neglect of the comments. As a one-man band, it seems like I’m either recording / editing / releasing episodes — or — keeping up with comments. Sorry. I totally remember the show you’re referring to! I’ll have to ask BillChete what that show was all about because I remember something along those lines. I’ll tell you what he says.

        But yes, for those who are looking for BillChete’s archive of podcasts, you can find it here: http://billchete.com/archived-podcasts/

        -J

        • The intro special for Horror Palace was indeed the one that BillChete sorted into old vs young, so I’ve found everything I was looking for.

          No worries about the replies, Jay. I understand! Thanks for all the hard work 🙂
