Movie Review: Blood Quantum

This week on End Credits, it’s time to get dead again! Just in time for the unofficial start of summer, we’ll review the new socially conscious zombie hit Blood Quantum, and, before that, we’ll finish up the list of the Top 40 Comic Book Movies of the Last 40 Years. Yup, this one’s going to be a nerdy episode.

Canned Con Cast 34 - Northern AM Gold

There is a new episode of the podcast I co-host with Anthony Marco, Canned Con Cast, available to stream or download.

It's been roughly 8 months since our last episode, because life happens. But we really reflect on why we started this podcast in the first place in this episode.

Also, note, I suggest to Anthony that he should listen to a specific song by the band Skylark, but I gave him the wrong song title. This is the one he and you should listen to (after listening to our episode!)
