Episode 145: Ice Sharks
It's time again for Shark Week here on SlashU, where we each take a pick at a cheesy, campy, sometimes terrible movie where a Shark is the killer. This week is professor Nick's pick, Ice Sharks from 2016. A group of scientists are studying climate change at a remote research station in the Arctic. They soon discover that warming waters have allowed a new breed of sharks to invade the area, picking off any living thing that comes too close to the edge of the ice. They have to escape their research station before they are trapped and become lunch.

SlashU Special Interview
50:44||Season 9On this week's episode, we're bringing you another special interview. We sat down with Calvin Marie McCarthy, the writer/director of "Pillow Party Massacre." He talked to us about making that movie as well as tons of other projects. We discussed his time working on low-budget horror, working with a familiar cast and crew of people, and how he thinks this genre has evolved over time. Calvin's been involved in this industry in one way or another since a very young age and we thank him very much for taking the time to sit and talk with us here at SlashU.You can check out Calvin's stuff at www.7thstreetfilms.comFollow us on Instagram @SlashU_Podcastemail us at SlashuPodcast@gmail.comCheck out the Facebook page too.And click any of the links on the "buy stuff" page at SlashUPodcast.com to support the showThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FXSlashU Special Interview
01:13:12||Season 9This week we sat down with someone we consider to be low-budget horror royalty. It's Jeremy Sumrall. We know him best here at SlashU for playing The Beast in 2009's "Sweatshop" but he's done tons of other great things! So we got Jeremy on the line and decided to talk all about it for about an hour. He told great stories of how he started out, how he wound up in both "Sweatshop" and "Axe Murdering with Hackley." He talked about how sometimes the best thing you can do in making films is just 'show up' and be helpful and be grateful for every opportunity. Check it out and let us know what you think, and go show Jeremy some love.www.JeremySumrallFlickmaker.comfollow us on Instagram @SlashU_PodcastCheck out the Facebook page tooEmail us at SlashUPodcast@gmail.comClick on the "buy stuff' links at SlashUPodcast.com to support the showThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FX149. Episode 149: Don't F*** in the Woods
44:09||Season 9, Ep. 149We went pretty basic this week and also handled our first Creature Feature. Still a Slasher movie at heart, we talked about "Don't F*** in the Woods." It's a very simple movie premise. A group of campers are in the forest for a weekend of partying. Anyone who engages in intercourse becomes victim to a creature attracted by sex. And that's it. There's a sequel though, so stay tuned for that!Follow us on Instagram @SlahsU_PodcastCheck out the Facebook page tooEmail us at SlashUPodcast@gmail.comClick any of the links on the 'buy stuff' page at SlashuPodcast.com to support the showThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FX148. Episode 148: Slashorette Party
01:15:41||Season 9, Ep. 148This week we found another goofy, campy slasher to dive into. It's "Slashorette Party" from 2020. The story centers around Brie, a young bride-to-be who might be having a case of cold feet. Her friends throw her a surprise Bachelorette Party in a cabin out in the woods. But they get surprised by uninvited guests who begin picking off the partygoers. It's a slow burn at first but then it cuts loose.

Episode 147: Murdercise
01:01:16||Season 9, Ep. 147We debut Season 9 this week! I know, it just snuck up on all of us. But we felt like we had been hanging out in Season 8 for a long time. And it was time to start fresh as we round out the summer. This week we brought you one from 2023, but it's set in the 80s. "Murdercise" takes place when it was a simpler time, when a workout video full of attractive women doing squats would have made a million dollars. We follow Phoebe on her quest to bring fitness to the nation by killing anyone who gets in her way. It's a whacky ride that doesn't take itself too seriously. So it's perfect for SlashU.Follow us on Instagram @SlashU_Podcastcheck out the Facebook page tooClick on the "buy stuff" links at SlashuPodcast.com to support the showEmail us at SlashUPodcast@gmail.comThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FX146. Episode 146: Planet of the Sharks
52:59||Season 8, Ep. 146We're back to wrap up Shark Week here on SlashU. Another year, another couple of bad Shark movies in the books. This week we took on 2016's "Planet of the Sharks." It's another one where climate change has melted all the ice and 98% of the planet is covered in water. Sharks are the dominant species on the face of the earth and they've formed a massive super school. All the sharks are being controlled by a mutated Alpha Shark. A team of humans must band together to fight off the sharks while trying to launch a rocket into the atmosphere to clean off excess CO2 and help bring back some land to live on. It's a wild ride that makes no sense.Follow us on Instagram @SlashU_PodcastCheck out the Facebook page tooEmail us at SlashUPodcast@gmail.comClick the links at the "Buy Stuff" page at SlashUPodcast.com to support the showThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FX144. Episode 144: Final Summer
01:07:59||Season 8, Ep. 144This week we went back to summer camp to tackle Final Summer from 2023. After a horrible tragedy at Camp Silver Lake, the counselors try to move on and clean up the camp at the end of the season. As it turns out, the camp is going to be sold off to a developer. So this is their "Final Summer" together as a group. But a killer is stalking the campers picking them off one by one. Is the killer out for revenge somehow? Or just a psycho?

Episode 143: Pillow Party Massacre
01:07:27||Season 8, Ep. 143Oh wow, we picked a doozy this week. Go check out the cover art for "Pillow Party Massacre" from 2023 and compare it to "Slumber Party Massacre" from 1982. They're very, very similar. But since this movie is not nearly as good as the 1982 classic, I'm sure no one got sued over it. Our story centers around a group of friends trying to move past an April Fools' Day prank gone wrong from 2 years ago. But a killer holding a grudge isn't ready to leave the past behind. And as a result we get a movie that's so bad it's good, and your professors have a ton of fun tearing it apart.Follow us on Instagram @SlashU_PodcastCheck out the Facebook page tooEmail us at SlashUPodcast@gmail.comClick the "buy stuff" links at SlashUPodcast.com to help support the showThanks to ZapSplat.com for our Sound FX
