For this installment
of the Blog I want to tell you about a good friend and fellow horror
host from the great state of kentucky Dale Streble aka Uncle Edward and
the It Came from the Basment show
. He was gracious enough to
seek us out thru our YouTube page and becoming a fan and supporter of
the show and providing us with much needed feedback and many words of
encouragement. In addition to being a huge fan of our lovely co
hostesses Inferna and Lady torrid not to mention our Newest member the
Lovely Black Dahlia. So rather than liste to me yapp on about Uncle
Edward I will let the man himself do that. Take it away Uncle Edward ...
In
the small former railroad town of Lebanon Junction, Kentucky about thirty miles
south of Louisville, strange things have been afoot. In 2011, Dale
Streble, a horror and sci-fi movie junkie since the 70’s was working on a
character to DJ a Halloween dance that his Lion’s Club did to raise funds for
camps for special needs kids and Dr. Darkhours in his tuxedo and fez came to be.
Dale
soon felt called to the video medium and in 2012, Uncle Edward, a ghoul in
repose at a forgotten cemetery was discovered, still sporting a fez as Dr.
Darkhours. When space babe Nadia von Nacht (played by my wife,
Robin) crashed in the cemetery, It Came From the Basement was born. But
before a full episode could be filmed and presented on the local public access
channel, Dale was injured in an automobile accident and filming was put off for
most of 2012. During this time scripts were painfully written.
However, when braces came off, the cable company had changed and the local
friendly staff was now a huge, not as friendly, national company. A full
show was made, but getting it broadcast was a formidable task. Dale had
experienced a plethora of horror hosts online, not the least of which was
Omaha’s Shock-O-Rama with the great Angry Brothers and their bevy of
beauties! But this was some time to be.
In
the Basement there was despair as posting a show on the internet just didn’t
seem right. Then, in late 2013 Dale discovered a Kentucky independent
filmmaker, Jerry Williams, who had been doing a You Tube show based on the
1950’s program Captain Video, with his called Astro Space Hero,
and after shooting some scenes for Jerry, Dale was emboldened to bring forth his
own little show called Adventures of Galactic Command, which appeared on
You Tube in early 2014. Due to the simple beauty of this, Dale brought
back Uncle Edward and his favorite space babe, Nadia von Nacht to give another
go at It Came From the Basement. Uncle Edward’s love for the classics
persisted with his Trailer-Rama shows. And finally the full episode of
ICFB featuring Night of the Bloodbeast, although recorded much earlier, was
posted.
Most
recently, a new version called The It Came From the Basement Show was made and
posted which features characters from the Basement, a moldy oldie cartoon and
some groovy movie trailers.
This
started out with all intentions to be a horror host show, but the influences of
SCTV and Benny Hill have led us into more sketch-type faire. We really just want more input from
everyone out there who has seen our shows to let us know what they
think!
Well
Said Dale.. err Uncle Edward you and you lovely co-hort Nadia Von Nacht
had done a fine job..We cant wait to see what happens next. so keep up
the great work.
This is your old pal

For this installment
of the blog I was originally going to do a review of the Tony Watt (aka
The Canadian Wildman) films Frankenpimp and Vixen Highway 2006 (both
great films BTW so stay tuned). Instead I wanted to take this
opportunity to pay tribute to a fello horror host and a wonderful human
being Magoo Gelehrter aka GAROU the werewolf also the husband of
Danielle Gelehrter aka Penny Dreadful XIII, Magoo lost his valiant
struggle with cancer and left us this past friday. The entire horror
host community was deeply shocked and saddened by his loss including us
here at the monastery of mayhem (brother james, ash, inferna & lady
torrid) also send out deepest sympathies to Danielle and Magoo's
families.
I
personally did not have the opportunity to communicate with magoo on
the level that many of my fellow horror hosts did But I followed the
posts on his Gofundme and Facebook Pages and did talk thru facebook on
several occasions. I was always touched by the optimism,strength and
dignity that Magoo used in coping with his illness and was always
touched by the upbeat nature in the thank you email's he sent in regards
to the donations made to his gofundme campaign and helping to spread
the word of his plight with our fans and over the social media.
When
I decided to become a horror host about 5 years ago I researched many
horror hosts Penny and Garou had stood out not only because of penny's
obvious chrisma and attractivness (shes smokin!) but what i watched on
youtube and their websites and was captivated by the interplay between
Penny and Garou, manfred von bulow and luna . Magoo's comedic timing and
his passion and love for the character of Garou shone through every
time he was in front of the camera . Tennessee horror host Dr Gangrene
had this to say about Magoo "Magoo was the little guy with a funny name
and a huge personality -to meet Magoo was to fall in love with him.
Funny. Intelligent, warm-hearted and full of love of life" A very
appropriate description of Magoo indeed.
After
hearing of Magoo's Passing and not really believing that i had heard
right, I began to wonder "why is someone with such passion and such
strength taken from us so soon and obviously with so much more to give?"
Having lost several members of my own family to cancer I have asked
these questions before and coming up with the same answer that the
universe works in strange ways and someone that can touch so many is
needed for great work elsewhere. I know that this is small comfort to
penny and thier families at this time I wish that I could have gotten to
Magoo better, I am sure that if someones impact in this life can be
measured by the outpouring of sympathies by those lives he touched at
his passing then Magoo was truly one of the luckiest of people.
Speaking
for myself if I could answer any of those questions that i asked
previously I would probably be a wiser person than I am now. All I can
do is feel what all of us in the horror host community, his family and
his fans are feeling now the sadness at his loss but also being grateful
that Magoo was able to touch all of our lives in some way large or
small, thats a pretty good legacy in my opinion.
Your
Old Pal Brother Jack Angry and the crew at the monastary of mayhem are
always on the lookout for the best and brightest in indie film makers
from both the states and our unique cousins from the great white north
and by north I dont mean the dakotas I mean Canada..The Land of Molson
ale and the canadian tuxedo, where hockey isnt a game its a religion..
Our
first film of the night is Acid Head -The Buzzard Nuts County Slaughter
the film stars Tony watt who also directs and produces along with his
very delicious wife Vivita Kho, Tony has her billed as a canadian scream
queen. The story opens with 2 bank robbers hitting the bank of
Bramption Ontario where one of the robbers is gunned down as he lays
dying he tells his partner to take the haul of cash and split for the
states to find lana a stripper/hooker he had feeling for to let her
knows he still loves her which he promptly does leaving his partner to
die right there.. Tony watt plays many of the characters vito the
italian mobster and john of Louisiana Lou also the characters of butch,
dracula and cletus. Vivita play the title role of Acid head and
pheremone labonza.
The
story follows the trials of butch after being beaten up with a black
mambo dildo by his psycho girlfirend and being kicked out of his
aprtment and his subsequent journey to find a home he encounter joey a
doper and meth maker much hilarity ensues at this point.. Most notable
in this production are the buxom vivta and the character of strawberry
grenade played by the stunning Danielle Leslie D
ickson and Jane
Longeye as Dixie Stoolsoftner. The movie has a grindhousey or bad porno
vibe which adds to its charm. As I had several cans of beer during this
film by the end it was a very unique ride to say the least..
Our
Next Film By Watt and Twi is Nosferatu vs Father Pipecock and Sister
Funk. this retelling of the Murnau classic Nosferatu had me scratching
my head saying what the fuck and trying not to piss on myself from
laughing at the same time. Im pretty sure that brother james did pee
himself but them James Pees himself on a pretty regular basis. Watts
impressive use of sound bites to take murnau's story and turn it into a
sex romp and his use of scene cut ins was a joy to watch. All in All
both films have a funky basment quality much like our show which only
enhances its charm. I cant wait to feature both of these works on Movie
Night Live From the Monastery of Mayhem on KPAO here in Omaha.
This
is one of those movies that you would want to watch with a fifth of
your favorite adult beverage or a baggie of your favorite weed if your
so enclined. A great Romp Kudos Tony and Vivita.
Every Once in a while
you discover a show out there that just makes you sit back scratch your
head and go hmmmmm, we found just such a show in Hillbilly Horror Show on vimeo.
The
show opens with the 2 hosts Bo and Cephus (Scott Geiter) and the very
yummy kissing cousin Lulu (Rachael Faulkner) bring you a series of indie
shorts and other amusing tidbits as well.
The First
Feature Franky and the ant was a unfaithful wife/girlfriend piece where
the psycho franky and his sleezeball friend the ant are planning to
dispose of frankies girl Karebear for being unfaithful. There is little
blood or gore in this peice the real drama comes from the interaction
between franky the ant and to a small degree Karebear the film ends with
a surprise outcome that i did not see coming so i wont spoil it a solid
indie offering. The 2nd and third pieces were an animated short called
doppelganger about a wayward skeleton and his journey and Alone a
canibal stalker peice set in a snowbound rural area both very
commendable offerings.
The Final Piece Called The Nest
was provided by Rattlesnake productions, this mutated bee short took the
show bo,cephus and lulu certianly saved the best for last, The nest is
the story of a local rancher finding that one of his prize horses has
been stripped to bare bones right in the pasture by a as yet unseen
menace complains to local farm inspector randy. Add in the local diner
owner Elinor and her half wit son Diz and 2 honey theving goth bimbets
and we actually got a movie here. The special effects were excellent the
scenes where the 2 goth bimbettes were stripped to bare bones in the
blink of an eye is worth the time to take to watch this piece alone. We
dont want to spoil anymore of the movie so we will leave it here summing
up an excellent piece which myself and the crew enjoyed immensely.
So
well done hillbilly horror show, the only downside was more camera time
was needed for lulu and her smokin hot ass! (take the hint!) Here is
our video review of the Hillbilly Horror Show on Live from the Monastary
of Mayhem.
In our last blog post We told you about the 36th annual Groundhog Prom happening on February 1st, 2014 at the Sokol Auditorium in Omaha Nebraska.

may ask? The Groundhog prom is an alternative costume party held in
Omaha every year usually on or about groundhogs day. Every year is a
different theme, the theme this year is Come As Who you Aren't- A salute
to snowden and wikileaks or come as your favorite whistle blower. The
event is sponsored by the order of the knights of the groundhog and was
started as a counterblast to Omaha;s Knights of Aksarben and the kingdom
of quivera. The first Groundhog prom consisted of 50 people wearing
tacky formal wear, the attendance has grow considerably numbers for last
years parted exceeded 2000+. We will be there in full force myself,
inferna, ash, lady torrid and Deadra the Groupie Corpse. A certain other
local horror host will be with the mission of making things difficult
for us no doubt however that aint gonna happen as the men and women of
the Omaha Polcie Dept will be there to make sure everyone has a good
time and behaves themselves.
