Podcast appearances and mentions of bob shaye

For the capstone of his Hollywood Stories series exploring the 1990s — an era of explosive creativity and innovation in the entertainment industry — Richard Rushfield talks to two execs who helped New Line Cinema become the movie studio of that golden moment. Mike De Luca is today the co-chair and CEO of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, but in the '90s he was the head of production at New Line, a powerful role he stepped into at the tender age of 27. Richard Brener started as a temp at New Line in 1995 and never left, working his way up to run the studio (now a division of Warner Bros.) as its president and chief creative officer. Together they recall how the indie house launched by Bob Shaye in 1967 struck gold nearly 30 years later with comedy blockbusters (Austin Powers, Dumb and Dumber, Rush Hour, The Wedding Singer) and revered auteur-driven dramas (American History X, Boogie Nights, Se7en). As an indie, "you were kind of locked into lower-budget acquisitions and films — that all coalesced into a business plan of sleeper hits," De Luca says. “We were not afraid of trying things that we liked, even if other people had passed on them.” Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we are discussing the Full Moon classic, "Oblivion 2." This movie has all your favorites Lurch, George Takei, Catwoman, and my new movie crush Lash. This Twin Peaks Sci-fi western had us discussing a new insect, the best places to tattoo a map, the turtle inside a turtle, and so much more. This was a fun one and our b movie sequel expert Nick is back for it. Watch the unedited review at sequelsonly.com/Oblivion2 Next week we are talking with the creator and writer of "Final Destination" Jeffrey Reddick. Jeffrey talked about his journey from Kentucky to Hollywood and it sorta began when he was 14 by mailing Bob Shaye of New Line a prequel of A Nightmare on Elm Street. At 1st he wanted to act, but then he made a pivot to writing and he made the right. Great chat about his journey of Final Destination and how it began as a spec script for a popular Sci-fi show in the 90s. Jeffrey is directing a slasher this summer.

Another mind bending podcast. First an apology for talking over Jennifer; because I knew I didn't have her for long, I wanted to squeeze in as much information as I could. The first half I interrupt her often, the second half not so much. Yes, I did a Laverne & Shirley, I played "Guide the Pizza Delivery guy" - an idea that Charles Grodin had, that he pitched to Penny. They wrote me in and as noted, they cut me out.  It's just fun that I did the show, and that Harry Dean Stanton sang a song (which went over, and is why I was cut out, according to Penny.) I did spend the millennium on a yacht with Bob Shaye, Penny Marshall and others - and I played the piano while Penny sang shows tunes from "Hello Dolly" but with Bob and Ava Shaye's names instead. And for those familiar with our books with transcripts of eight years of meeting weekly - "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 1, 2 and 3" or "Tuning into the Afterlife" - they'll know that Jennifer doesn't recall our conversations unless folks on the flipside remind her.  We did interview Gary Marshall when he crossed over, we have interviewed others mentioned in the podcast, Robin Williams, Sally Kellerman... Luana Anders is our moderator on the podcast, she did over 300 TV episodes and films, knew everyone - and those in turn know others.  We've had many stop by the podcast - not because they're "celebrities" - there's no hierarchy on the flipside, but because Luana knew them. (Luana reached out from the flipside to get me to do a documentary about this research.) I was at Penny's birthday party when I met Robin Williams. Luana introduced me to Fred Roos, introduced me to Francis Coppola who introduced me to George Lucas (I beat them both playing "Risk"). Rance Howard starred in my film "Limit Up" so I know Ron, as well as his mom. I don't know Bill Hudson, but I do know his ex Goldie. Apologies to her children for dropping their names in this podcast - I try not to offend grieving family members, but sometimes it's healing or helpful to hear or see how easy it is to access our loved ones. We do this podcast for that reason - to demonstrate one doesn't need a medium (it helps) doesn't need a hypnotherapist (it can help) but one can just do a simple meditation (example in DivineCouncils.com or the film HackingTheAfterlifeFilm.com ) to chat with anyone. Or give Jennifer a call. She's really good at what she does. As Harry Dean Stanton told us (transcript is in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside") "tell people to allow for the possibility there is an afterlife so then they won't waste another minute of their life arguing about it like I did."   I mention David Kirkpatrick in the podcast, as he wrote a wonderful memory of Cindy on his Facebook page.  Some may think I'm directing Jennifer in these questions - but since we've been doing this for eight years, I'm not trying to prove anything to anyone - for me that's a waste of time and energy when she's done that so many times already. Plus she works with law enforcement daily pro bono.  I'm not the only one who knows how talented she is (JenniferShaffer.com) I don't know if Ron or George or Fred will ever see this podcast, but they're specifically mentioned in here. Our loved ones are NOT GONE. THEY'RE JUST NOT HERE.  The data, research, footage from UVA Medical school DOPS demonstrates consciousness is not confined to the brain. It's not my opinion, theory or belief that people say the same things about the afterlife using hypnotherapy, meditation or in this case mediumship - it's footage.  Examples are in flipsidemyfilm.com, "Talking to Bill Paxton" on Gaia, or HackingTheAfterlifeFilm.com . And to Bill Hudson - whom I don't know - Cindy says "you can have it."  She says you'll know what that means. We hope so.

Here, Jeffrey talks about his upbringing, writing process, and what lies ahead.  Hit that play button!   SHOUTOUTS & PROMOTIONS - Jeffrey's Social Media (@jeffreyareddick)   -The Trevor Project

Today on the show we have screenwriter and director Jeffrey Reddick, who is best known for creating the highly successful Final Destination horror film franchise. The franchise has grossed over $650 Million world-wide. Not bad for an idea that was first conceived for an X-Files episode.Jeffrey also co-wrote the story for, and executive produced, Final Destination 2 (2003). Jeffrey made his first connection to the film industry at age 14 when he wrote a prequel to Nightmare On Elm Street (1984) and mailed it to Bob Shaye, the President of New Line Cinema. Bob returned the material for being unsolicited. But the young man wrote Bob an aggressive reply, which won him over.Bob read the treatment and got back to Jeffrey. Bob, and his assistant, Joy Mann, stayed in contact with Jeffrey for over five years. When he went to The American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York at age 19, Bob offered him an internship at New Line Cinema. This internship turned into an 11-year stint at the studio.Aside from Final Destination (2000), which spawned four successful sequels, Jeffrey's other credits include Lions Gate's thriller, Tamara (2005), and the remake of George Romero's classic, Day of the Dead (2008). Jeffrey's directorial debut is Don't Look Back.When a young woman overcoming her traumatic past is among several witnesses who see a man fatally assaulted and don't intervene, they find themselves targeted by someone, or something, out for revenge.Jeffrey has had an amazing career so far and I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.Enjoy my spooky conversation with Jeffrey Reddick.

"Final Destination" franchise writer/creator Jeffrey Reddick started his creative journey when he wrote a ten-page treatment for prequel to "A Nightmare on Elm Street" at the age of fourteen. After mailing it to New Line Cinema founder Bob Shaye, an unlikely letter-and-phone relationship with Shaye and his assistant began. The result, eventually, was another global horror phenomenon. "Final Destination" exploded into five films, two comic books and nine novels. Reddick continued with the horror genre, writing and/or producing fan-crazed smash hits like "Tamara," "Day of the Dead," "The Final Wish" and "The Call." Television credits include: "Return to Cabin by the Lake," "Dante's Cove" and the "Belly of the Beast" episode of the animated Netflix series "Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles." 

A Nightmare On Elm Street: Secuelas: 6, una serie de TV, un crossover con “Friday The 13th” y un remake. Presupuesto: 1.1 Million USD. Recaudación: 57 Million USD. Año: 1984. Director: Wes Craven. Actores: Heather Langenkamp (Nancy), John Saxon (teniente Donald Thompson), Johnny Deep (Glen), Amanda Wyss (Tina) y Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger). ¿De qué trata la película?Un grupo de adolescentes son atormentados en sus sueños por un sujeto con quemaduras llamado Freddy Krueger. Después de la muerte de su amiga Tina, Nancy Thompson se da cuenta de que, si mueren en sus pesadillas, también mueren en la vida real y tratará de descubrir por qué son perseguidos y cómo librarse de la situación.Inicios: La idea principal se le ocurrió a Craven cuando leyó un artículo sobre una familia que provenía de Camboya y el hijo menor tenía pesadillas, así que trataba de mantenerse despierto a toda costa. Lo llevaron al doctor para recetarle pastillas, pero no se las tomaba (fingía que lo hacía) y tenía café escondido en el clóset para mantenerse despierto. Eventualmente se quedó dormido y murió de forma inexplicable. Escribió el guion en 1981 y varias productoras lo rechazaron, entre ellas Disney, Paramount y Universal, hasta que New Line Cinema se interesó por la historia y aceptó invertir en el proyecto. Bob Shaye, de New Line Cinema, se interesó mucho en el proyecto desde el principio. El problema fue que no tenían dinero, solo una línea de crédito de 100,000 dólares y el contrato estipulaba que no podía utilizarse en producción cinematográfica. Después de que Wes obtuvo tantas cartas de rechazo, regresó con Bob y le dijo “¿pues qué onda entonces?” y Bob le respondió que iba a conseguir el dinero, pero que firmara con él. Para este estudio, fue la primera película con un éxito grande y, a pesar de que tuvo más producciones exitosas, se le suele llamar “la casa que construyó Freddy”. Justo a una semana de comenzar la filmación, uno de los inversionistas mayoritarios en la producción se echó para atrás. Les dijeron a todos que no tenían dinero para pagarles esa semana, pero que les dieran oportunidad y no dejaran de trabajar, que la semana siguiente iban a tener su pago. No recibieron el pago hasta dos semanas después y entró otro inversionista de último momento a levantar el proyecto, pero todos los que estaban involucrados en la filmación creían mucho en la película, ninguno dejó su puesto. Actores: El personaje de Fred Krueger iba a ser interpretado por un doble de riesgo, ya que sus secuencias exigían mucho movimiento físico y no tantos diálogos, sin embargo, cambiaron de idea y decidieron contratar a un actor. La primera opción fue David Warner, no obstante, tuvo que rechazarlo porque el calendario de filmación no se ajustaba a sus otros proyectos. Inclusive ya tenían la máscara que iba a utilizar, hecha a su medida. Craven conoció a Robert Englund y al principio no lo convenció por ser poco intimidante y bajo de estatura, pero Robert entendía lo sanguinario que tenía que ser el personaje y eso persuadió a Craven. Una de las peticiones de los inversionistas fue que consiguieran un actor reconocido para que ayudara a promocionar la película en el extranjero y seleccionaron al actor John Saxon, quien ya contaba con una trayectoria en Hollywood. Fue la primera película de la actriz Heather Langenkamp, pues Craven quería que el rol de la protagonista fuera para una actriz desconocida. Craven imaginaba a Nancy como una chica con la cual la audiencia lograra sentir relación, que pudiera ser una vecina suya. Además, quería alejarse del estereotipo de belleza hollywoodense de rubia blanca. De alguna forma describe a Heather como una chica morena llena de fortalezas. Fue también la primera película del actor Johnny Deep. ¿Quién es Freddy? Originalmente Fred Krueger era un abusador de menores, pero tuvieron que cambiarlo, ya que, en su momento, estaba un caso similar en todas las noticias en EE. UU., y no querían que pareciera que se estaban aprovechando de la trágica noticia. Wes Craven acostumbraba a basarse en sus experiencias personales y lo que sucedía alrededor para desarrollar sus historias y personajes. El caso de Freddy no es la excepción. Además, conforme crece la franquicia obtenemos más información sobre él. Modus operandi: Wes Craven, basado en la historia del chico de Camboya y el comentario de un amigo que le dijo que tuvo una pesadilla tan terrible que sintió que era real, concibió el modus operandi del villano: matar a través de los sueños. Además, ya tenía rato queriendo hacer un proyecto que involucrara a los sueños, pero, por más que compartía su idea, decían que los sueños no daban miedo. Lo más terrorífico de Freddy es ese paradigma de que, cuando tienes una pesadilla, es solo eso, una pesadilla. Te despiertas y estás bien. Wes Craven la convierte en el motor de la destrucción: si te duermes, la realidad y el sueño se mezclan a tal grado que, si mueres en el sueño, entonces mueres en la vida real. Además, hay un sentido de presión y de urgencia, ¿por qué? Porque se tiene el tiempo en contra. Sabemos que, como humanos, tenemos que dormir, no importa cuánto café tomemos o cuántas píldoras, el cuerpo resiste solo hasta cierto nivel y luego se entrega, no puedes escapar. Bien lo dice el doctor: no puedo evitar que sueñes porque es necesario para mantenernos vivos y cuerdos. Ni siquiera los doctores entendemos los sueños. Al dormir, estás destinado a encontrar a Freddy en tus sueños y sentenciado a morir horriblemente. Apariencia: Debido a que fue quemado, tiene la carne expuesta, ronchas y no solo eso, está en el mundo de los sueños donde cosas sin sentido ocurren. Escena cuando Tina le agarra la cara y se la quita, revelando el cráneo. Freddy es masoquista, le gusta mutilarse, le trae placer. En cada sueño es diferente, aparece otra cara como si no se hubiera mutilado. Se reconstruye solo. Por eso se atreve a dañarse, no tiene consecuencias. El sombrero se le ocurrió a Wes Craven por un borracho que vio de niño por la ventana, además, traía un suéter similar al de Krueger. El guante quería que fuera algo que pudiera hacerse en casa, de hecho, en el intro, esa visión perdura, pues se ve cómo Fred lo está construyendo en su taller. Segundo aspecto, quería que fuera algo a lo que la humanidad le haya temido por años y pensó en cosas punzocortantes: espadas, animales con garras, colmillos... Decidió que tenía que ser algo así, filoso. ¿Por qué guante? Porque la mano simboliza aquello que nos separa en cuanto a destreza de otros animales. Motivación:Freddy Krueger siente placer al aterrorizar a los demás. Por eso sus muertes, a diferencia de otros filmes slasher, no son rápidas. En el mundo de los sueños, lo vemos una y otra vez, puede aparecer en donde él quiera, no hay impedimentos físicos. Sin embargo, Freddy se regocija en ver sufrir a los demás, hacerlos correr de miedo, aterrorizarlos y llevarlos a sus máximas consecuencias.Sí, los quiere matar, pero si puede alargar lo más posible la experiencia y atormentarlos, lo hará, porque eso le da energía.Después, en las secuelas, aprendemos sobre él. Conocido como el “hijo de cien maniáticos”, haciendo referencia a que, por naturaleza, nació malo. Fue adoptado por una familia abusiva y bulleado de niño. Si bien, ya tenía tendencias psicópatas, este tipo de ambientes las amplificaron.Ahora que sus amigos de la escuela son padres, qué mejor forma de castigarlos que asesinando a sus hijos y causarles el peor dolor imaginable. Eso es un ser malvado real, como dirían, “pure evil”. Por eso Freddy funciona tan bien, porque lo vemos en sus diferentes fases (en la vida y en los sueños) accionando con la intención maligna de trastornar al otro, porque puede, porque le causa placer.Quizá la gente diga que las secuelas no están a la altura de la original, pero lo que sí es un hecho, es que construyen en carne y hueso a un personaje redondo, cosa que muchos slashers de horror no logran.Curiosidades: El título contiene la palabra “Elm”, pero nunca se menciona en la película. Wes Craven eligió ese nombre porque era la calle donde vivía cuando era maestro de Universidad, antes de trabajar en la industria del cine. Craven decidió que el asesino no utilizara máscara para diferenciarlo de otras películas como “Halloween”, “Friday the 13th” y “Texas Chainsaw Massacre”. Además, quería que su rostro tuviera expresiones para burlarse de sus víctimas. El diseñador David Miller se basó en imágenes reales de personas con quemaduras y el diseño de las marcas se le ocurrieron cuando comía una pizza de pepperoni. Craven evitó que empleara un cuchillo porque era demasiado común y se inspiró en algunas garras de animales para crear el mítico guante con navajas. Elaboraron dos versiones para la película, una con filo para que pudiera cortar objetos y se viera real en los acercamientos y otra sin filo para no lastimar a los actores en las escenas de pelea. Los colores verde y rojo del suéter se deben a un artículo donde se mencionaba que esa combinación era la menos armoniosa para el ojo humano. Hay una escena donde el personaje de Nancy está viendo la película “Evil Dead”, eso fue porque Sam Raimi, años antes, utilizó un póster roto de “The Hill Have Eyes” en dicha película. En “Evil Dead 2”, en algunas escenas, se ve el guante de Freddy dentro de la cabaña. No se conocían personalmente y era una disputa amigable entre ambos directores. Después de la muerte de Craven, Sam Raimi incluyó de nuevo el póster de “The Hills Have Eyes” en la serie “Ash Vs. Evil Dead”, pero esta vez enmarcado y a modo de homenaje. Para la escena de muerte del personaje de Tina, utilizaron un mecanismo giratorio donde todos los muebles estaban clavados en el piso y el camarógrafo amarrado para dar el efecto de que Tina era arrastrada por el techo del cuarto. La actriz Amanda Wyss sufrió de vértigo, se confundía y, al ver la cama en el techo, sentía que se le iba a caer encima. Tuvo que ser ayudada por el mismo Craven para recuperar el equilibrio. Canción:1, 2, Freddy viene por ti,3, 4, cierra tu puerta.5, 6, toma tu crucifijo.7,8, vas a desvelarte.9, 10, nunca duermas.¿Qué te gustó de la película?Me gustó que Freddy fuera contraintuitivo con respecto al género, es decir, en cualquier momento podía estar a un lado de sus víctimas, pero no lo hacía para aterrorizarlas o matarlas, sino porque quería prolongar el sufrimiento.También me gustaron los efectos que hacen referencia a la delgada línea entre el sueño y la realidad. Por ejemplo, las paredes que se flexionaban mostrando a Freddy detrás como si fuera una sábana. Las escaleras que estaban pegajosas. De alguna forma, cuando tienes un mal sueño, cosas extrañas suceden.La mezcla de humor que el villano tiene, pues payasea a propósito, está jugando con su víctima, significa que tiene el control, se puede dar el lujo de eso.¿Qué no te gustó de la película?El final estuvo extraño con la intención de dejar un gancho para la secuela. Parecía ser un sueño y que Freddy apareciera sugerido, es lo más probable.Créditos:Radio Horror es producido por Caro Arriaga y Rael Aguilar.Edición por Matías Beltrando desde Destek Soporte.Música:Closing Theme Hounds of Love por Dan Luscombe (Intro), Insiders por Joe Crotty (Intro), Patchwork por Patchworker f.k.a.

Jared, Oriana and Ned talk about our collective choice of topic: Peter Jackson's version of The Fellowship of the Ring. Released twenty years ago this month, there's simply no question regarding the sheer force of the impact that the first part of the massive effort to create a three-film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings had. It squarely placed the story directly into more mainstream popular culture, transformed the nature of the longtime fandom and appreciation around the books, and became the anchor point of any number of adaptations and interpretations since. But besides fond memories of a suddenly wild and exuberant time, looking back with a more critical but still appreciative eye is useful in acknowledging flaws and curious decisions as well as reflecting once more on just how striking a film it is. What does a wider consideration of that time in history tell us, not least of which was the shattering impact of 9/11 three months prior, as well as being caught in a continuing new wave of sf, comic book and fantasy adaptations? Are all the various casting choices that the team made for the film successful, as well as the adaptational choices themselves? How does the film succeed as a film straight up, and what are its best moments? And is Legolas really a mink stole? (Admit it, you'd love to see it.)[Thanks to Michael Collins from This Is Your Mixtape for editing this episode!]SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle.

New Year, "New" Movies! This week, we review Wes Craven's New Nightmare. That's right, the film wherein Freddy's father/ creator Wes Craven returned to the franchise. He had something of a falling out with New Line Cinema over licensing and their deviation from his vision with sequels, but Bob Shaye made amends, laying the foundation for what would become this film. This film breaks the fourth wall, introducing Heather Langenkamp, not her earlier character Nancy Thompson. Similarly, we get to see Robert Englund, John Saxon, and Wes Craven as themselves. Unfortunately, we do not see the hyperbolic Craven he envisioned, road tripping with characters from his earlier films, but still, it is something. The film also is a bit of art recreating life, as Craven incorporated Langenkamp's actual struggles with a stalker into this film. You wanna hear about that? Well, we talk about it! Along with the novelization, set design, costuming, makeup, and a bunch of stuff we really are not qualified to comment on! We analyze this film, and the introduction of "The Entity," to Dean Koontz's 1983 novel, Phantoms... and thereby Stephen King's It from 1986.

The franchise has grossed over $650 Million world-wide. Not bad for an idea that was first conceived for an X-Files episode.Jeffrey also co-wrote the story for, and executive produced, Final Destination 2 (2003). Jeffrey made his first connection to the film industry at age 14 when he wrote a prequel to Nightmare On Elm Street (1984) and mailed it to Bob Shaye, the President of New Line Cinema. Bob returned the material for being unsolicited. But the young man wrote Bob an aggressive reply, which won him over.Bob read the treatment and got back to Jeffrey. Bob, and his assistant, Joy Mann, stayed in contact with Jeffrey for over five years. When he went to The American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York at age 19, Bob offered him an internship at New Line Cinema. This internship turned into an 11-year stint at the studio.Aside from Final Destination (2000), which spawned four successful sequels, Jeffrey's other credits include Lions Gate's thriller, Tamara (2005), and the remake of George Romero's classic, Day of the Dead (2008). Jeffrey's directorial debut is Don't Look Back.When a young woman overcoming her traumatic past is among several witnesses who see a man fatally assaulted and don't intervene, they find themselves targeted by someone, or something, out for revenge.Jeffrey has had an amazing career so far and I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.Enjoy my spooky conversation with Jeffrey Reddick.

Directed by Jack Sholder & produced by Bob Shaye, this 80's slasher follows a quartet of murderous psychopaths who break out of a mental hospital during a power blackout and lay siege to their doctor's house.

They said he was dead, but Freddy returned although not as we may have expected him. Wes Craven resurrected the beloved villain in a bold new enterprise back in 1994. Did it pay off? Does it still stand true today? The Surgeons team dissect and discuss this film to find out some of these answers.

Thank Freddy for Wes Craven! On this episode of Kill By Kill, we're getting serious - mostly - about one of the best horror films to emerge from the 1990s, Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Gena & Patrick are joined by Birth Movies Death writer and Horror Movie A Day author Brian Collins as we dig into the pure Hollywood tale of the lengths one master moviemaker will go to torture his leading lady... onscreen, of course. Along the way we talk about eel punctures, stabbing Freddy in the dick, the special hell of Hollywood assistants, and why people misunderstand the connection between New Nightmare and Scream. Plus, we delve into what makes Heather Langenkamp such an incredible star and John Saxon an icon for the ages.

Episode 181: The Crew's discussing Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, and Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Freddy's Dead is the last canonical entry in the Nightmare franchise, and Freddy goes all out Looney Tunes goofy. Lots of fans disliked The Final Nightmare, so New Line Cinema brought back series creator, Wes Craven. New Nightmare's villain is a demon that takes the form of Freddy; trying to invade the real world. The actors are playing themselves in the film; with Wes Craven and Bob Shaye even making appearances.

Let's take a bite out of listeners submission month with our Critters (1986) VHS Movie Review. Quick FactsCritters is a 1986 monster/comedy horror film made on a budget of $2,000,000 by New Line Cinema. Critters grossed $13.6 million during its release in the United States and spawned a Critters franchise with three sequels.

It's no picnic for the Brown family when a lethal litter of Krites arrives unannounced at their Kansas farm. Trapped in a deadly nightmare, the terrified Browns fight for their lives against the attacking bloodthirsty monsters. But, it's a losing battle until two intergalactic bounty hunters arrive determined to blow the hellish creatures off the planet! It's an alien adventure, full of action and just crawling with CRITTERS! Fun Facts -The Krites voices were a combination of French and Japanese elements and voiced by Corey Burton (Dale from Chip and Dale. -Although Critters was released two years after Gremlins, director Stephen Herek states that the script for Critters was initially written by Dominic Muir far before Gremlin's entered production; Gremlins did, however, serve as an incentive to greenlight Critters. Herek unsuccessfully attempted to sell his project to several studios, but it was only after the release and success of Gremlins that New Line Cinema was willing to produce it. Herek thus had to heavily adjust Muir’s script to reduce the similarities between the two films significantly.-The Chiodo brothers — Charlie, Steve, and Ed — got the job of creating the Krites. The design and construction of the Krites cost $100,000 of Critters $2,000,000 budget. -The main puppets were full-sized 13″ models, with radio-controlled eyes and blinking eyelids, cable-controlled faces, arms, and claws, as well as bladders in the throat and chest to mimic breathing. For the Critters’ eyes, clear plexiglass spheres were coated with reflective Scotchlite material in the back.-The giant Krite at the end was a 4-foot tall suit to be worn by a little person. The Chiodo brothers didn't have much time or money to build the suit. “They didn’t give us the time or money to do it,” Charlie said. “The costume was just a quick, throwaway thing; they wanted to show something big. It looked alright, but there were no mechanics budgeted for the face; it didn’t move.”-Sugar Apples inspired Krite eggs.-Jordan Downey made a 6-minute fan film for a Critters web series that never got off the ground, but his short is rad.

CW: Child Molestation, Sexual Assault This week on Pod Sematary, Chris & Kelsey are excited to discuss their favorite slasher villain! The Quipping Killer! The Dream Demon! The Springwood Slasher! The Bastard Son of One Hundred Maniacs! The Orangutan Goblin himself: Freddy Krueger! It's a Double Feature of A Nightmare on Elm Street! First up is the 1984 classic! It has the best cop-out of all time because everything happens in dreams. They can do anything! This low-budget flick almost didn't happen but writer/director Wes Craven and producer Bob Shaye wouldn't stop until it was made and the world is all the better for it! Plus, will someone please analyze Kelsey's recurring nightmare? Then it's the 2010 disappointment... Perhaps surprisingly, we'd really like to see a good Nightmare reboot, but boy did we not get one here. Unlike the Thing premakequel, which we decided was simply unnecessary, this remake is a wasted opportunity to reinvigorate the beloved franchise. But we try to find the good in it anyway... is there any? Get more at podsematary.com!
