The web is the greatest democratiser of our time, giving a voice to even the most marginalised, such as Wes Vance and Aaron Frye, the hosts of http://www.deadpit.com.

Dead Pit is an internet radio station dedicated to horror movies, run by The Creepy Kentuckian and Uncle Bill, from a single room in Prestonsburg, an old coalmining town in Kentucky where this duo is a bit of an anomaly. These selfconfessed rednecks are the horror genre’s equivalent of Harry Knowles – fan boys who got famous and respected within the horror community – doing what they love, in spite of their thick Kentucky accents.

See what can be achieved with a couple of microphones, passion and an Internet connection.
