This week the Boys discuss dead animals, trauma, and Paul's extra-curricular activities. Released in 1981, "The Howling" is a quintessential horror film directed by Joe Dante. Based on the novel of the same name by Gary Brandner, the movie is a landmark entry in the werewolf subgenre of horror. The story follows television news anchor Karen White, played by Dee Wallace, who becomes the target of a serial killer. To recover from the trauma, Karen and her husband retreat to a remote resort known as "The Colony." Unbeknownst to them, the inhabitants of this secluded place are lycanthropes – werewolves – and their seemingly idyllic community conceals a terrifying secret. "The Howling" is celebrated for its effective blend of suspense, gore, and transformation sequences, becoming a cornerstone in the werewolf horror canon. The film's groundbreaking special effects, led by Rob Bottin, marked a significant advancement in practical creature design at the time. The vivid and horrifying werewolf transformations are particularly memorable, showcasing the level of dedication and creativity that went into the film's production. Beyond its technical achievements, "The Howling" is also praised for its social subtext, as it can be interpreted as a commentary on primal instincts and the battle between civilization and our more animalistic nature. As Karen delves deeper into The Colony's sinister secrets, the movie explores themes of identity and duality, adding depth to its horror elements. With its chilling atmosphere, remarkable practical effects, and thought-provoking themes, "The Howling" remains a cherished classic that has left an indelible mark on the horror genre.

THANKS TO ANDREW FOR MAKING THE INTRO SONG. (soundcloud.com / andoryukesuta)@andoryukesuta The Howling 1981 In a red light district, newswoman Karen White is bugged by the police, investigating serial killer Eddie Quist, who has been molesting her through phone calls. After police officers find them in a peep-show cabin and shoot Eddie, Karen becomes emotionally disturbed and loses her memory. Hoping to conquer her inner demons, she heads for the Colony, a secluded retreat where the creepy residents are rather too eager to make her feel at home. There also seems to be a bizarre connection between Eddie Quist and this supposedly safe haven. And when, after nights of being tormented by unearthly cries, Karen ventures into the forest and makes a terrifying discovery The Howling is a 1981 American horror film directed by Joe Dante. It is based on the novel of the same name by Gary Brandner. The film stars Dee Wallace, Patrick Macnee, Dennis Dugan, and Robert Picardo. The Howling was released in the United States on March 13, 1981, and became a moderate success, grossing $17.9 million at the box office. It received generally positive reviews, with praise for the makeup special effects by Rob Bottin. The film won the 1980 Saturn Award for Best Horror Film while still in development, and was one of the three high-profile werewolf-themed horror films released in 1981, alongside An American Werewolf in London and Wolfen. Its financial success aided Dante's career, and prompted Warner Bros. to hire Dante (as director) and Michael Finnell (as producer) for Gremlins. A series consisting of seven sequels arose from the film's success. A remake is in development, with Andy Muschietti set to direct. Karen White is a Los Angeles television news anchor who is being stalked by serial killer Eddie Quist. In cooperation with the police, she takes part in a scheme to capture Eddie by agreeing to meet him in a sleazy porn theater. Eddie forces Karen to watch a video of a young woman being bound and raped, and when Karen turns around to see Eddie, she screams. The police enter and shoot Eddie, and although Karen is safe, she suffers amnesia. Her therapist, Dr. George Waggner, decides to send her and her husband, Bill Neill, to the "Colony", a secluded resort in the countryside where he sends patients for treatment. The Colony is filled with strange characters, and one, a sultry nymphomaniac named Marsha, tries to seduce Bill. When he resists her unsubtle sexual overtures, he is attacked and scratched on the arm by a werewolf while returning to his cabin. After Bill's attack, Karen summons her friend, Terri Fisher, to the Colony, and Terri connects the resort to Eddie through a sketch he left behind, having previously discovered that Eddie's body disappeared from the morgue. Karen begins to suspect that Bill is hiding a secret far more threatening than marital infidelity. Later that night, Bill meets Marsha at a campfire in the woods. While having sex in the moonlight, they undergo a frightening transformation into werewolves. While investigating the next morning, Terri is attacked by a werewolf in a cabin, though she escapes after cutting the monster's hand off with an ax. She runs to Wagner's office and places a phone call to her boyfriend Chris Halloran, who has been alerted about the Colony's true nature.

Welcome the newest episode of Dark Discussions, your place for the discussion of horror film, fiction, and all that’s fantastic. It's basically a running joke with vampires and zombies. Almost every other horror film or television show seems to have them in it. Yet werewolves, probably one of the most popular horror monsters of all time seems to be overlooked. Yet there are a few classic horror films starring them. The Universal monster films are some. American Werewolf in London is considered a classic. Even Emily Blunt starred in the remake Wolfman a few years back. But also, Joe Dante arguably may have made the best one of them all. The Howling, now thirty-five years old, is considered a horror classic. News anchorwoman Karen White is covering a story about a serial killer known only as Eddie. When she is contacted by him to meet up in the red light district of Los Angeles, a police shootout occurs leaving Eddie dead and Karen in psychological turmoil. Dr. George Waggoner has Karen and her husband head to his retreat to recoup from her shock. Soon, however, things turn bizarre as their marriage becomes strained and the community around them begins to show signs of eccentricity. Released in 1981, and based on the best selling novel by Gary Brandner, the film made Dee Wallace a top horror screamqueen and broke out Joe Dante as one of the era's top genre directors. With master Rick Baker as a consultant on the film and Rob Bottin doing the work, the movie is considered one of horror's groundbreaking films for special effects. Dark Discussions does a critique of the film and talks all things werewolves. As always we welcome your comments: darkdiscussions@aol.com (written email or attached mp3 files) WWW.DARKDISCUSSIONS.COM
We dive head first into Joe Dante's The Howling (and the rest of the book and movie franchise) along with Josh Hadley of the Radiodrome, What the F*ck and Lost in the Static podcasts.
