Gunther Dedmund
      is the host of the Basement Sublet of Horror.
He has been collecting old film, living in basement apartments and attending college classes for over 40 years.

      Gunther claims to be afflicted with a rare disorder called "Shortfilxia", which was caused by his being struck by lightning at a drive-in theater when he was a small lad. Because of this "disorder", Gunther can only stay awake for movies lasting one hour or less. This works out well since the show is only an hour, Gunther condenses each film down to around 40 minutes, then inter-cuts various odd public domain film bits, cartoons or newsreels in to spice things up. The Basement Sublet of Horror is a unique movie show that has aired across the mid-west for several years.

The Show
      The Basement Sublet of Horror is the brainchild of the show's producer Joel Sanderson who's been working with old films his whole life. Their were several incarnations of this movie show presented in different live formats, years before the production on BSOH began. "M.T. Pockets Budget Film Fest" was a live stage show that played at the Wichita Center for the Arts in Wichita, Kansas for six years. Preceded by "The Escape' Drive-in" an outdoor drive-in movie theme party that was held in Vinland, Kansas for several year in the early 90's. BSOH is based on Joel's nostalgia for vintage horror hosts from the past, especially "The Host and Rodney" show from Wichita's television history. The basic concepts of BSOH are a loving parody of "The Host and Rodney", BSOH includes a lonely house on the hill in the shows opening segment as a homage to the host's TV program..

Gunther is currently working on concepts for new TV shows and other film or TV based projects.
