| 4/30/26 | Necro 315 AS ABOVE SO BELOW | We’re going underground this week. We’ll be visiting the 9 Circles of Hell with 2014’s AS ABOVE SO BELOW. Directed by John Erick Dowdle, this came out in the midst of an onslaught of “found footage” horrors. Additionally, we have some callers and the normal rundown of stuff we’ve been checking out. If you want to drop us a line, hit us up on the NECROPHONE 908-913-0782. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “The Black Hand” – Vinnie Paz | 1h 18m 29s | ||||||
| 4/23/26 | NECRO 314 REQUIEM FOR A DREAM | This week’s feature is the harrowing REQUIEM FOR A DREAM, the 2001 Darren Aronofsky directed film adapted from the Hubert Selby Jr. 1978 novel. The film features top-notch performances by Ellen Burstyn, Jared Leto, Jennifer Connelly and Marlon Wayans and tells aa brutal story or addiction, human depravity and the downward spiral. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Interlude: “Ghosts of Things to Come” – Clint Mansell Outro: “Crimin’ & Dealin’” – Clint Mansell | 1h 28m 42s | ||||||
| 4/16/26 | Necro 313 Neo Noir Maniacs 3 52 Pick Up | This week, we have another one that has been under consideration for a long time. 52 PICKUP is a grimy epic directed by John Frankenheimer and stars veteran actors Roy Scheider and Ann Margret. Released in 1986, this film flew mostly under the radar and garnered a split opinion from Siskel and Ebert back in the day mostly over the purported brutality and sleaziness of the film. This one slots nicely into our Neo Noir project. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “In My Dreams” – Dokken | 1h 11m 58s | ||||||
| 4/9/26 | Necro 312 Out of the Blue | Straight out of the Necro Phone Recommendations, we dig into OUT OF THE BLUE, a heavy, bleak film directed by Dennis Hopper from 1980. Critically acclaimed, but controversial due to it’s frankness with regard to sensitive topics such as drug abuse and incest, the film garnered a cult following and was released on a deluxe, special edition by Severin in 2023. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “Hey, Hey, My, My (Out of the Blue)” – Neil Young and Crazy Horse | 1h 01m 30s | ||||||
| 4/2/26 | Necro 311 Neo Noir Maniacs 2 The Man Who Wasn't There | We’re back with another Neo Noir episode this week. We cover the Coen Brothers THE MAN WHO WASN’T THERE, from 2001. The episode comes on the heels of the excellent Criterion release that includes new extras and a making-of documentary. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “If You Really Don’t Love Me” - Interpol | 1h 30m 48s | ||||||
| 3/26/26 | Necro 310 Excalibur | We have been talking about doing this one for quite a while, so with this the release of the excellent, limited-edition bluray from Arrow, we took on EXCALIBUR. John Boorman’s epic telling of the King Arthur legend was groundbreaking back in 1981. It was a darker narrative, exploring the complexities of these iconic figures and featured several familiar faces early in their careers. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “Kill with Power”– Manowar | 1h 16m 52s | ||||||
| 3/19/26 | NECRO 309 PULSE | This week we go back to 2001. It’s the dawn of the new millennium and the world is filled with anxiety over the perils of the internet, existential dread and the mystery of mortality. Behold PULSE, a heavy death meditation written and directed my Necro-approved Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “Ground Zero”– Zeni Geva | 1h 29m 41s | ||||||
| 3/12/26 | NECRO 308 28 YEARS LATER BONE TEMPLE | We continue our coverage of Alex Garland’s trilogy further chronicling the post infection world with 28 YEARS LATER THE BONE TEMPLE.

| 3/5/26 | NECRO 307 NEO NOIR MANIACS 2 NIGHTHAWKS | We have been talking about doing this one for a while. The 1981 neo-noir NIGHTHAWKS features Sylvester Stallone on the heels of Rocky I and II as well, a post-Empire Strikes Back Billy Dee Williams and the US film debut of Rutger Hauer. It’s a grimy journey through old NYC as an international task force pursues a maniacal terrorist. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “Slowride”– Foghat | 1h 30m 25s | ||||||
| 2/26/26 | NECRO 306 BENEATH | More Larry Fessenden this week. We check out BENEATH, the 2013 monster movies that he directed, written by Tony Daniel and Brian D. Smith. Intro: “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “Male Supremacy”– Carnivore | 1h 27m 36s | ||||||

| 2/19/26 | NECRO 305 SE7EN | David Fincher’s classic Se7en seems like a film that we should have done years ago. In the wake of some rumblings of a Fincher directed Netflix Se7en series, we decided it was timely to go back to the 90’s for this groundbreaking crime horror movie with solid performances turned in my Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt set in a dreary nameless city.
