Schlock Express: Fun With the Living Dead (1/28/25)

43:48 – Doc Sleaze is back with his ‘other’ show (after a lengthy hiatus) for some ‘Fun With the Living Dead’. So, board the ‘Schlock Express’ for a journey through a selection of seventies and eighties zombie movies which all take radically different approaches to the living dead. From shambling Voodoo monsters to respectable – but dead – citizens and from the graveyards of Old England to the coastal resorts of New England, join our journey through four different perspectives on the zombie.
