Next on the chopping block: Restrepo and The Horde

It's our last episode before Christmas and the final broadcast of the year, so how do we intend to celebrate? By going to war . . . and then to France to fight zombies!

Shawn and I will be taking the next couple of weeks off. But we'll be back at 10 p.m. PST on Jan. 7, 2011. This means that, after we post the podcast and written reviews by Monday, activity on the blog will quiet down save for the occasional review or piece of news. Regular posts will resume on Jan. 3.

We here in The Basement want to take this opportunity to thank all of our readers and listeners and wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to entertaining you in 2011!

But first, we've got tonight's show on the chopping block, with reviews of the Afghanistan war documentary Restrepo and the French zombie splatterfest The Horde. We'll also present for your listening pleasure our thoughts on the best Christmas-themed movies, another Three Minutes With segment and some fine music for your ear hole.

Join us tonight at 10 p.m. as we celebrate the holidays The Basement way on 92.5FM CFBX Kamloops or head online at www.thex.ca at the same Bat Time. We promise it'll be better than getting coal in your Christmas sock.

And now for some previews:
