Bring the cast back BillChete. The 5 movie theme was one of a kind with the 5 recommendations most shows had close to 10 recommendations per show it was phenonial. The time line special sounds awesome, if it is anything like the previous one on Macabre it will be a knock out show.

I got to hear Shocks “donkey balls” – “gorilla pis” again Lmfao. Planet Macabre was such a laughing hoot, damn I miss this show. It’s one of the most entertaining horror podcasts that were ever made such diversity and strong characters.

Tyvm for putting this together all of you again, it seems like forever since I heard the shows.

kittiebone | February 23, 2012

tyvm for returning on another go around guys it was enjoyable.
G.C. | February 23, 2012

Bill & Cos,
Excellent show I loved PM had tons of horror recommendations every episode. Nowhere could you get ten detailed reviews on one show. The comradeship hasn’t changed, I would like to hear more of these style shows. Next time if I may suggest due a full fledged theme like the old days.
parry | February 24, 2012

outstanding planet macabre crew, fun ride thru the return-thx.
HellHunter | February 24, 2012

HellHunter | February 24, 2012

HellHunter | February 24, 2012

Bloody Lizzy and Boss Butcher: tying up my army boots now
HellHunter | February 24, 2012

HellHunter | February 24, 2012

April: lots of weird and wacky foreign coming your way
HellHunter | February 24, 2012

Joe Mummy:

Thanks Joe.

Looking forward to contributing to Horror Palace and working with you and all the other hosts.
Jay of the Dead | February 25, 2012

Agreed with Boss Butcher… Planet Macabre is simply the greatest horror movie podcast ever made. I miss Planet Macabre so much. Thanks for this reunion show. Your No. 1 fan, Jay of the Dead.
BillChete | February 26, 2012

Thank you for the comments horror fans, it is greatly appreciated! It is possible we could do another Planet Macabre Reunion style show but it wouldn’t be for some time. Maybe a once a year thing could be in the cards!
Haddonfield Hatchet | February 26, 2012

Looks like it’s going to be Invasion of the Body Snatchers!!!
GregaMortis | February 27, 2012

I want to thank everyone for leaving such great comments. It was a blast being on this episode and recording with my family. Planet Macabre was the greatest ensemble of critics and it was always a great time. I do wish we could carry on with the same crew but at this time it just is not possible. I am always up for more reunion shows for sure.
SickJack | February 27, 2012

So I go back to the Planet Macabre site to check out some of your old episodes, and ah, I gotta ask, who the hell is Doctor Shark? Kinda fishy how he and Doctor Shock are never on the same podcast.
Bosworth87 | February 28, 2012

Welcome back originators, fun rehash of the old PM, vote is in.
gerdywerdy | February 28, 2012

Great Show

Loved it
Loved it
Loved it

Was just like sitting around with old friends

Any chance we could get this back as a more permanent feature (even a monthly episode) as I don’t think I would be alone in loving this

Great to hear from Hellhunter and Lady Phantom again

GREAT show
BillChete | February 28, 2012

Thank you all once again for the comments! It is greatly appreciated! Specific responses below:

SickJack: There’s nothing fishy about it sir. Dr. Shock has absolutely nothing to do with Dr. Shark. Dr. Shark is the new owner of Planet Macabre. He put out 2 short episodes and then fell off the face of the Earth. The originators of Planet Macabre were on this podcast here. We have no affiliation whatsoever with Dr. Shark!

Gerdywerdy: Thank you for the kind words! I would love to do a continual Planet Macabre podcast, but that will not happen. I do 2 podcasts weekly, Doc and Greg are also weekly. There is not enough time in the day to do another podcast. I can tell you this because it has been requested countless times here and through the contact form. If all of the hosts are able, we will do another Planet Macabre show with a theme (5 movies) and recommendations before the end of the year. Maybe a Holiday bonus or something.

Thanks once again, we all have much gratitude!
