BLOOD OF THE MAN DEVIL

Haven't been here in a while so I thought it would be good to post a clip from our newest show with the flick Blood Of The Man Devil



This is the last one for the year and it will play into the beginning of January. Soon we will be on the web so I will keep you all informed.

Seeya!

Psycho Pumpkins

For your Halloween enjoyment!

A Special!

We are gearing up for our first ever Halloween special and it will be the flick Voodoo Man with Bela Lugosi. we have an interview with a make up guy. Special bumpers with famous guests (sort of) and much, much more. I'll be sure to post the bumpers here as they are being edited.

Did I Mention...?

I published a book.

It's a thriller called NAHUM.
Check it out, won't you?

Thanks!

Keeping You Abreast Of The Situation

So, the show started promptly at 1:30 on Channel 19. Thirty-Five minutes later, the show froze up. It stayed that way for the next 20 minutes and then they started it up again. It played until three o'clock and then went off the air for something else. So, people got to see the first part of The Gorilla.
I sent off an email to PMN but no response yet.
Sheesh!
I will be so glad when Vimeo becomes the way I do this thing.

We're Back!

We took a little hiatus here at The BAsement and now we have done three shows back to back.
First up is The Gorilla with Bela Lugosi and The Ritz Brothers.



Then we originally were going to do The Woman Eater, but technical difficulties made that unworkable. We decided to do The Devil's Hand, but not change the bumpers. We did a little crude dubbing and it made for a funny experience.



Finally we have the monster in a suit flick ZAAT. A truly bizarre little flick.



Look for bumpers soon on the site and it won't be long before we go to Vimeo to bring you entire episodes online!

RECENTLY

Public Media Network continues to be the bane of the show's existence. I will be so happy when we go online for the show. They couldn't get episodes 21 & 22 to play on their antiquated equipment even though it plays on every DVD player here at Baron Morbid central. It even plays in the XBOX 360! We will continue to carry on, but I see us hitting the internet for a huge Halloween episode. It should be a hoot.

War Of The Gargantuas Episode

It refuses to burn. I have tried many things with Convert X To DVD and nothing. It stops after Chapter 6 and refuses to go nay farther. I have one last thing I'm going to try and then I play it for laughs by dubbing over the name of the movie in a horrible dub with whatever else we can think of.
Sorry.

Tuesday, August 10, 2010

Two for the price of one

We did two episodes back to back. Here are the bumpers for your viewing pleasure and, as always, thanks for watching!

No new show this week.

Things got out of hand over here at the lab and I never made it to the station. So, next week will be Unknown Terror. My apologies in advance and maybe I can get them to show one of the old shows this week. I'll call them in the morning and see what they say.

Again...My Apologies


So, apparently I sent Public Media Network a bad disc. Episode 20 freezes up during the cartoon in the beginning and they do nothing about it. If they emailed me I'm sure I could replace it. It kills me that for every episode that I have to give them my name, my email address and my phone number. Hell, I give them three phone numbers! And they still do not contact me even though there is a problem. My file plays fine and I burnt a disc that plays in my DVD player so it's an easy fix. Oh well, maybe I'll send them a new disc this week and have them try again with the same thing. I have the episode almost done for Episode 21 with The Unknown Terror so I really don't want to do that. We'll see.

EPISODE 20!

It's Jacques and The Baron versus Terror From The Year 5000. Enjoy!

Good News Massachusetts!



Well, if you live near the area that is serviced by Cable Access ABMI Channel 8 that is. Apparently our good friend Dr. Dreck is showing episodes of The BAsement Of BAron Morbid over in his neck of the woods.
Let me return the favor by giving you the trailer to his flick;

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

Be sure to tune in.

Here are the trailers for the flicks;

My Apologies

For all of you that have used the schedule I posted earlier and discovered the same thing that I have;
PUBLIC MEDIA NETWORK HASN'T BEEN SHOWING THE EPISODES!!!!

First it was Curse OF The Swamp Creature that ran almost a half hour late on Saturday. I assume that they fixed it for the rest of the week, but I never checked. Then Terror In The Crypt where they run the first half hour and then KAPUT! Nothing. I checked it on Monday and today and that happened so I assume that it also happened on Saturday. So, if you have been trying to watch it, I apologize again.
Who knows what will happen next week with Bela Lugosi Meets Brooklyn Gorilla? Will they even bother to show it? Who knows? I do know that I wrote an upset email to the Operation Director and I left a voice mail today when it happened again. Will anything come from this? Who knows!
Thank you all for reading the blog and if you are watching the show I apologize again for the incompetence of Public Media Network.
If you would like to voice your own complaint to Public Media Network you can reach them at 2693432211 or email them at pmn@publicmedianet.org to voice your complaints.
Thank you.

In the Coming Soon category we have:

Terror Creatures From The Grave

Thanks as always for watching.

My Battle With Bela

Not a real battle, but I must say that Episode 15 of The Basement Of Baron Morbid almost didn't happen. We were showing Bela Lugosi Meets A Brooklyn Gorilla. I had done this process a million times. Shoot our bumpers, convert the film into something compatible with Windows Movie Maker. After 14 shows under my belt I was getting pretty good with this.
Until this one.
First it would not save before burning. It hung up on 99% forever. Then I got it to work and lost about fifteen minutes of the movie. I realized this after I burnt it, but I caught it before making copies for the permanent file and the cable access station.
I thought my copy of the flick might be bad so I went to Archive.org. Yeah, Windows Movie Maker hated that file! Finally, I scrapped everything, restarted the computer and started over.
After wasting seven blank DVD and hours of time Episode 15 is finished. Man, was that a pain!
To celebrate here is a clip from the show with our erstwhile Monster Hunter Shamus McMouffin:

A Buncha Stuff!

First up here is a listing of every episode that we have done so far. Remember that episodes 13 and 14 are part of season two and have not been broadcast yet.

SEASON ONE
Episode 1
Vengeance Of The Zombies
Episode 2
The Devil Bat
Episode 3
Voyage To The Prehistoric Planet
Episode 4
I Eat Your Skin
Episode 5
The Vampire Bat
Episode 6
The Amazing Transparent Man
Episode 7
Bowery At Midnight
Episode 8
Manos, The Hands Of Fate
Episode 9

Episode 10
Night Fright
Episode 11
LOONS
Episode 12
The Creature Of The Haunted Sea
SEASON TWO
Episode 13
Curse Of The Swamp Creature
Episode 14
Terror In The Crypt

Now, for the bad news;
I thought I made a permanent copy of Episode Two, but it is defective. That means that I have no Episode Two. If anyone out there in TV land has a copy could you please send me a copy? I would greatly appreciate it.
Finally, you can buy episodes of The Basement OF Baron Morbid for your very own. With the exceptions of Episode Two until some kind soul sends me a copy and Episode 11 because I don't want to undercut my good friend Michael Legge's sales of his flick. If you send me proof of purchase of LOONS then I will send you a copy of Episode 11. Confused? Good, then I'm not the only one.
Each Episode comes in a slim line DVD case with cover artwork and is only five bucks postage paid. You can pay via PayPal to dwaltz1962@yahoo.com.
Man, I hope episode two turns up soon.
Have a great day fans!

A Brief Note

Jacque and I will be hard at work getting more episodes done and out to the airwaves after this weekend. we are attending the Motor City Comic Con on Friday and anticipate being bushed.
Have a great day!

Monday, April 26, 2010

GREETINGS!

Okay fans, here's the deal. I put three episodes on schedule to air and they kept screwing them up. I think part of the problem is that most of my episodes aren't the same length and they don't feel like programming them. To rectify this we will be expanding our time to a two hour format and requesting a permannent time slot. We will be shooting all this week and hopefully have them doner and in the can very soojn. I will keep the faithful posted.
Have a Morbid Day!

My apologies

It seems that there was some sort of miscommunication at the cable access station and they didn't broadcast the show on Saturday. I called and they said it was playing on channel 95, but it was the wrong episode!! I'll be checking today at four to see what is going on. Wish me luck. To make it up to the fans here is a free movie you can watch from the convenience of your computer;

Where we've been

Jacque and myself have been spending extra time down in the basement with a plan to do a bunch of shows all at once to better serve our fans and fiends. There will be a new episode this Saturday at 1:30 in the afternoon. We are also looking at adding a late night time slot for the show and already in preproduction for an all night marathon come Halloween.
In the meantime, here's a clip from the next flick;

NIGHT FRIGHT

New episodes.

Dungeon of HArrow will bring us to a ninth episode and, unfortunately, no show this Saturday. I had mid term exams and it snuck up on me. We will be doing LOONS by Michael Legge in the very near future. I can not wait for that one. Definitely gonna be a good time.
Here's a taste;

A bumper for the fans

I decided that we should post a bumper for each episode depending on which one I thought worked well. This one is fun for me. We are currently working on our Manos episode and that is going to be a lot of fun. Here's your bumper;



And just a reminder that we will be having our Devil Bat episode appear on a Boston stations website. Tune in to ambi8.org and see the fun internet.

Episode Seven

Did this one last night. It went really well and we had a lot of fun with this one. The movie is Bowery At Midnight with Bela Lugosi. I'm dropping this one off at the station this afternoon. As always it will be showing at 1:30 on Saturdays, but I'll post the other times when I get them. I think I may post a segment from each show on here as well from now one. Also, Baroness Morbid suggested I start logging in the episodes and what we did on each one. I think I'll do that after each episode airs so as not to ruin any surprises.
I do want to mention that we are still having the contest to show short films on the show. Just contact me here.

Wednesday, January 27, 2010

REGULAR TIME

Until I say otherwise, an espidoe of Baron Morbid will play on Saturdays on Channel 19 here in Kalamazoo. I am working on a way for people to be able to order episodes of the show as they become available for super cheap. Around five bucks. More news as that gets closer to fruition.
Thanks for watching!
Epsiode Six this Saturday will be The Amazing Transparent Man.
Have a great day!

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

1/15/10 1:30P Channel 20
1/16/10 1:30P Channel 19

Monday, January 4, 2010

New Episodes...

...are almost getting on the air. What that means is that I went down with episodes 4 (I Eat Your Skin) and 5 (The Vampire Bat) and the new reservation book wasn't out yet? It's the fourth already and no book. I try again later in the week and post the times accordingly. Also, we are having a new segment where people send in their short films. That should be a lot of fun. More about that in the weeks to come. I think I might start posting clips from the show here. More on that later as well.
For now, go have fun, make a short film and contact us here if you want it shown and I'll see you all next time in The Basement OF Baron Morbid.
