Thousands of horror movies.  Hundreds of franchises. But only ONE that has stayed consistent:  "The Evil Dead".  Every week in October, the team here will be examining an installment in the franchise with special musician guests.  

This week Ross, Ian, and Nat are joined by Josh Staples to discuss the film that started it all: 1981's "The Evil Dead".  The film that put Bruce Campbell and Raimi on everyone's radar.  The early embers of a cult classic horror phenom that spread like wildfire through VHS machines across the globe.  A terrifying entry point?  A camp classic celebrated for its failures? An ambitious new direction for horror films?  Find out as we discuss it all!!

There is a deeper dive into this film over at the rigs of dad patreon page, with an extended and unedited version of this chat featuring more on the makeup, the hardships, the effects, and the famous "tree ---- scene", as well as early access to other conversations in queue, and more.  Head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where you can also hear more unedited, ad-free interviews with previous guests, patreon exclusives, and beyond! 

Ross put out an album under the name COGENTS. It's available wherever you listen to music and highly recommended for those looking to scratch their ambient itch.

Ian and Nat have a new 7" from their band Strangelight and you can keep up with them at their bandcamp page.

Josh has an incredible podcast called Forever Midnight that is available on all major platforms, but best celebrated via THEIR PATREON PAGE so stay cool by getting in on that party!
