Director Sam Mendes continues his exploration of the 007 cinematic universe with Spectre as James Bond is given a mission to take out the mysterious killer named Oberhauser. All the favorites are back, Moneypenny, Q and M while the criminal organization “Spectre” takes the forefront including Christoph Waltz and Dave Bautista as key – and familiar – villains. The film has incredible action sequences, Bond girls and plenty of martinis, shaken not stirred.
This is a special episode of Horror News Radio where we take a slight breather from full-on terror films to take a peek at the 007 films with the release of Daniel Craig’s latest turn as James Bond in Spectre. It is a shorter than usual episode due to scheduling conflicts as we only review the film; however, it is the usual heated discussion that you will not want to miss. Horror fans return next week as the entire Grue-crew return with monsters, screams and gruesome gore!
Co-hosts Doc Rotten, Santos (The Black Saint) Ellin Jr., Dave Dreher, Thomas Mariani and Vixen, the voice of reason, are back again this week to give you the best in horror as they recap, review and obliterate all that is horror this week!

Review: Spectre (2015)
Award winning director – and self-professed James Bond uber-fan – Christopher G. Moore joins his Hannibal Fan Podcast (and American Horror Story Fan Podcast) co-hosts Doc Rotten and Thomas Mariani to review the latest 007 flick, Spectre, on this special episode of Horror News Radio. Thomas explores the nature and strange origins of some of the key elements from the film – think Thunderball and Never Say Never Again. Christopher goes into all the fan-service references to previous Bond films. Doc gets his panties in a wad defending the latest Bond girl. The review is full of divisive opinions as Doc, Thomas and Christopher spoil the crap out of the film.
