Welcome to the debut of Dark Discussions.

This is a website dedicated to horror and genre fans by horror fans.

Who we are:

 

We (Philip and Gordon) are two guys who meet up usually once a month for a night out for food and beers. Our discussions are all about horror films, books, and various other subgenres of the pulp and grindhouse type. Before swinging over to the theater we take a browse at the horror section of the local Borders and usually pick up a new title each. Gordon mainly goes for the new tradeback horror books while Phil checks up on the techno-thriller hardcovers. After our purchases and more talk about horror fiction, the two of us go see one of the more recent horror or pulp films that are at the local theater.

Why a website:

Phil, while scavenging websites, discovered podcasts. After testing the waters, he began listening to HorrorEtc and became a dedicated listener. Having a “non-live” radio cast on a topic that he enjoys at the touch of his ipod was tremendous. Knowing he and Gordon were as well read on the topic as any, Phil did research on how to make his own podcast. He mentioned the idea to Gordon of doing their own. Gordon thought it was a marvelous suggestion since it would be just like any normal conversation between the two of them. So the idea was born.
