The Dissector's Cut

Welcome back, everyone! Joshua and Matthew are finally back with their first episode of 2022, Elvira... PART TWO! We continue our series on the endlessly fascinating life of Cassandra Peterson, more commonly known as, yes... Elvira. Sorry for such a delay when it comes to us making our entrance into the new year but we are glad to finally be giving you the new content that you all righteously deserve! Have yourself a listen and you'll hear from us in a couple of weeks with part three!

The one and only, Mistress of the Dark, ELVIRA. You've heard her name! Who is she, exactly? Well, Elvira, or her normal mortal name, Cassandra Peterson, is the quintessential symbol of all things horror. The Queen of Halloween has become one of the most influential and "outrageous" pop culture icons in the realm of the spooky and has appeared in movies, television, CDs, books, and thousands of other media and products. In September of 2021, Elvira released an autobiography; "Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark". It is this book in which Joshua and Matthew dive deep and bring you the life of our favorite horror mistress. We will span our telling of Elvira, respectfully, over a multi-part series in which we believe it is due. There is a lot of detail we don't want to gloss over for Cassandra Peterson's life deserves to be properly represented and spoken about. If horror shaped your life just like horror had shaped hers, then this book is a BUST, oh sorry, meant must. Whoopsie. Learn about her origins and upbringing in the strange and macabre. And never forget that there is life after death. Even though there will be a time that Cassandra Peterson will take an eternal rest, Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark, will live on forever, finally transcending into immortality. Elvira, we here at The Dissector's Cut thank you for everything that you've done <3 Buy Elvira's book here: https://www.elvira.com/

Join Joshua, and Matthew as they dive into the newest Morbius Trailer. There exists a lot of Easter eggs within those few minutes of entertainment that we've seen from Marvel's living vampire's debut. We're so excited and cannot wait for this film to release. Come join us and see if you learn anything new! Stay safe and healthy out there, everyone! You'll hear from us soon.

Join Joshua and Matthew as they discuss the remake/reboot/WHATEVER, that is Evil Dead. This film was brought to life in 2013 and has terrified the world over. It has left such a hellish, bloody wake in it's path that it is impossible to not have a conversation about it. Have a seat with us as we talk about our last part and conclude our Evil Dead series!

Alright... It has been quite some time since our last episode. We apologize for the dry spell as we have had very busy schedules for awhile but we are back at it now! We were so busy in fact that October 31, otherwise known as Halloween of course, was The Dissector's Cut one year anniversary and we practically forgot! Plus, we would like to thank everyone who has participated in making this podcast the best it can be! We are nothing without our listeners! We thank you for the reviews, ratings, and to each fan who has reached out to us with information regarding our episodes. With all of that said, we bring your our third installment in the "Evil Dead" series, Army of Darkness, also known as "Bruce Campbell vs. The Army of Darkness". In this fantasy/horror/adventure/romance/comedy/WHATEVER-THE-HELL-IT-IS film, we see our protagonist, Ash Williams, travel back in time, side with a kingdom and it's denizens, fight an undead army, then unite two warring peoples and travel forward in time back to present day. Whew, talk about a crazy plot. Joshua and Matthew discuss the "usuals" - cast, crew, filming, budget, and much much more! We hope you enjoy this episode and you'll hear from us again soon!

Welcome back, everyone! Joshua and Matthew are here with their dissecting of the second film in the cult classic series, The Evil Dead, with the incredibly successful sequel, Evil Dead 2, or also known in publicity materials as, Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn. Just when you thought our hero, Ash Williams, had suffered enough throughout the first film, Evil Dead 2 pits him up against so much more that it easily shows the viewers how it became so successful in the first place. With reanimated loved ones, a possessed hand, cursed furniture, demons, devilish trees and vines, and even time travel... what more could you possibly need? Part horror, part comedy, Evil Dead 2 has acquired fans that will forever continue the franchise's undying and ever-growing popularity. Just as much a staple amongst "Horror Top 10's" and "Movies To Watch On Halloween", the Evil Dead series is a staple to us and must be covered on this show! Join TDC as they present to you some gifts, faster than Amazon Prime, about this fantastic film! Stay safe out there! You'll hear from us in a couple weeks with the next installment, Army of Darkness!

Joshua and Matthew are tackling quite the subject for their next few entries, The Evil Dead series, and they are starting with the progenitor; The Evil Dead. We're taken to the year 1981, where some friends go away for the weekend, find a grimoire (the necronomicon), in which demons are called upon by an ancient Sumerian chant that kill everyone but, you guessed it, the main character, Mr. Killer Jawline... and all of this happens in 85 minutes! For such a short runtime, this movie still packs such a serious punch that it'll send you flying into every IKEA shelving unit that you could possibly imagine. Well, loverboys and lovergirls, have yourself a listen while we conjure our own legion of facts, trivia, and history that went into The Evil Dead, and no, we did not mean to try and make this episode around the same runtime as the movie for a gag. That was completely on accident like the summoning of a primordial demon horde, right? Have fun! Our next installment in this series will be Evil Dead II in just a couple of weeks!

Right before the launch of our Evil Dead series, we would like to present to you our discussion about this delightfully, and creepy film, Willy's Wonderland and the brilliant Nicholas Cage's career! We hope this will hold you over until next week and be careful around any Chuck E. Cheese's restaurants!

WITNESS US as Josh and Matthew discuss a practical modern day masterpiece, Mad Max: Fury Road. If you're looking for an action pack, thrilling adventure of a movie with some fast cars, and explosions, then you can watch any Fast and Furious movie. But don't. To add to the mix, this movie takes place in a post apocalyptic world with incredible landscapes and many, many, brutal kills, something that Fast and Furious lacks no matter how many death defying stunts they do as they escape the cold grip of the reaper. This film isn't as kind, and we applaud that. Mad Max: Fury Road has been in their creator's minds and in development for so long that it's astonishing the movie was even still funded and made. The fact that Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy's stunt doubles found love amongst themselves and eventually married is incredible! Want more fun facts about this movie and more on it's creation, development, cast & crew, and behind the scenes? Then listen to our episode on this wonderful MOOvie! You won't be disappointed! In a couple weeks we will be discussing another cult classic, Evil Dead! See you then!

This is it. The final part of our "25 Years Of Resident Evil" series. Joshua takes us along the final stretch of this journey by discussing the last decade of the "Resident Evil" series, both movies and games, all the way up to the mentioning of the newly announced Resident Evil: Village DLC that is in the works. The history that sleeps within this franchise is a must-know if you are any sort of an enthusiast when it comes to the world of horror, video games specifically. You know how the elders of the world mention stories from time to time by starting them with "When I was your age"?... Well, video games are practically a $100 billion industry and continuously growing and some day you just might be that elder, starting out your fascinating tale with that famous line, and explaining how the beloved horror section of video games in your town's local movie store has grown as a part of an empire, and "Resident Evil", amongst some others of course, are to thank, eternally. Enjoy this final installment into this series and we will be back in 2 weeks with Mad Max: Fury Road!
