A trend certainly develops along this week's path of physical media with Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski. It is a week that offers musicals from Ernst Lubitsch, a double (or, actually, triple) dose of Van Damme and one of the craziest sci-fi horror films you will ever see. But it is also a week about truth and liberties. They go from the music side of the aisle in biopics about Benny Goodman and Jim Morrison. Diane Keaton takes you into the various depictions and mysteries of the afterlife. There is also another Tale of the Christ setting the record for the most Oscars for over 40 years as well as Ron Howard's Oscar-winning Best Picture. Finally there is the journalism of today with Jake Gyllenhaal and perhaps the greatest film about the profession celebrating its 50th anniversary.1:18 - Criterion (Eclipse Series 8: Lubitsch Musicals, Cloud (4K))10:57 - WB (Ben-Hur (4K), All the President's Men (4K))30:12 - Shout (Nightcrawler (4K))36:47 - Universal (A Beautiful Mind (4K), The Benny Goodman Story)50:06 - Lionsgate (The Doors 4K)1:01:02 - Arrow (The Visitor (1979) (4K))1:10:55 - MVD (Double Impact (4K), Knock Off (4K))1:24:15 - Lightyear (Heaven (1987))1:32:19 - New TV & Theatrical Titles On Blu-ray (Dexter: Resurrection (Season One), Predator: Badlands (4K), Sisu: Road to Revenge (4K), Now You See Me, Now You Don't (4K), Rental Family, Five Nights At Freddy's 2 (4K), Deathstalker (2025), Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) (4K), Song Sung Blue, Regretting You, The Carpenter's Son)1:37:37 - New Blu-ray AnnouncementsCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNGBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

The holidays may be over, but The Grave Plot boys are still rockin’ around the Christmas tree! We're back with one last stocking-stuffer of an episode, packed to the brim with Horror Business and just enough yuletide rot to make your tinsel curl. This week's news sack includes a truly unsettling Real World Horror story about orcas apparently deciding that boats are chew toys, a massive Dracula-themed mega-park rising from the dead outside Bucharest, Netflix sinking its fangs into a true-crime classic, Kumail Nanjiani stepping behind the camera for a new genre project, and Full Moon unleashing a whole crypt full of gloriously unhinged new productions. We also unwrap news on the grindhouse sequel Shiver Me Timbers 2, because nothing says “seasonal cheer” like cartoon icons on a chainsaw-fueled rampage. Oh and what’s that? That shiny box hidden behind the tree? Well it’s two festive film reviews! We take on the infamous cult classic Silent Night, Deadly Night 2, followed by a look at the brand-new Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025)—because if you're going to keep the spirit of Christmas alive, you might as well do it with murder. So pour some spiked eggnog, kick back in your ugly sweater, and join us for one last holiday hangover with The Grave Plot Podcast. The tree may be coming down… but the horror never does.

In this episode, we unwrap one of the most infamous slashers of the 1980s — Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) — a film that didn't just shock audiences, but ignited a full-blown moral panic.We dig into the movie itself, from its mean-spirited kills and sleazy holiday setting to its strange, unforgettable characters and grim worldview.We break down what works, what's unhinged, and why — despite (or because of) its rough edges — it remains one of the most effective and enduring Christmas horror films ever made. Beyond the bloodshed, we explore the wild behind-the-scenes story: how the film was made, marketed, and almost destroyed by controversy.We talk about the infamous TV trailer that aired before family-friendly shows like Little House on the Prairie, why parents were outraged at the idea of Santa Claus as a slasher villain, and how protest groups successfully pressured theatres to pull the film from release just days after it opened.We also place Silent Night, Deadly Night within the wider context of the Video Nasties era, examining how fear-driven censorship, tabloid hysteria, and home video panic shaped the movie's legacy — and how later VHS, DVD, and Blu-ray releases helped reclaim it as a cult classic rather than a cultural punching bag.Finally, we make the case for why Silent Night, Deadly Night has stood the test of time: its bleak tone, its commitment to being genuinely uncomfortable. Love it or hate it, this is a movie that refused to behave — and that's exactly why it still matters.Whether you're a long-time defender or a first-time viewer, this episode dives deep into the film that turned Santa into a symbol of terror — and became horror's most notorious Christmas movie in the process.If you enjoyed this - Check out my other content here - https://linktr.ee/FirstClassHorrorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025): A remake that decided "what if we made the killer sympathetic and also gave him a Venom-style relationship with his murder suit?" Rowan Campbell returns to horror after Halloween Ends, once again playing the tortured guy nobody trusted The Nazi barn scene: Makes zero geographic sense. Maximum entertainment value. Very Indiana Jones. A spirited debate about why modern horror will gleefully show you intestines but treats consensual nudity like radioactive material Budget: $750k. Box office: $3 million. Verdict: Added to the annual Christmas horror rotation. Brief tangent about Luigi Mangione, because of course Levi's history lesson on Christmas drinking traditions—turns out our ancestors got absolutely hammered for 12 days straight and we've been cowards ever since Coming up: New Year's episode with the Baldwin boys

This one is a huge step up from part 3 but still a far cry from where the franchise began, and not very Christmasy. Hopefully the 5th and final installment will stick the landing.
