HOUR ONE: It's rumored that an arcade game from 1980 might lead to the real death of its players. We'll look at the death curse of Berzerk. (The Berzerker Death Curse, And The Polybius Urban Legend) *** And another arcade game in the early 80s was surrounded by controversy – because the game never existed, despite so many saying it did. Or did it exist? We'll look at the urban legend of Polybius. (The Urban Legend of Polybius)==========HOUR TWO: Was Stanley Stiers the real-life inspiration for Michael Myers in 1978's John Carpenter film, “Halloween?” (The Real Michael Myers) *** The last known words of Peter Rugg were “Let the storm increase! I will see home tonight in spite of the last tempest, or I may never see home!" Over two-hundred years later and he has yet to make it home – but that hasn't stopped his tempest! (The Eternal Ride of Peter Rugg) *** Imagine attending college for several years, only to find out that the whole time you've been studying on top of the corpses of thousands of mental patients. That's exactly what happened in 2013 when The University of Mississippi made plans to expand parking for their students and staff. (The Corpses Under The University of Mississippi) *** Dealing with a ghost or two is awful enough – but what if you're attacked by a whole gang of ghouls? It was reported as real news in 1889's Chicago Tribune! (A Whole Gang O' Ghosts) *** People With Super Powers!==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Michael Bryson disappeared on August 5th, 2020 from Hobo Campground at Umpqua National Forest. He has yet to be found. (The Disappearance of Michael Bryson) *** When it comes to cryptids, you have many to choose from – Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, the chupacabra, the list goes on and on. But I'm willing to bet nowhere on the list of your favorite cryptids, or even the cryptids you've ever heard of, do you have an entry for “The Belled Buzzard” of Texas. (The Belled Buzzard Legend) *** When the Black Plague arrived at Eyam's doorstep in the 17th century, its villagers were forced to choose between life or certain doom. It's the tragic tale of England's Plague Village.

I Rewind nr. 18 tager vi et kig på lovens lange arm, eller i hvert fald film, hvor den arm fægter lidt i blinde og måske holder en laserpistol. Vi har støvet uniformen af (den fra BR), ladet kniplen hvile tungt ved siden af mikrofonen og kaster os over tre film, der på hver deres skæve måde hylder/håner ordensmagten. Gør jer klar, for politiet kommer! Måske! ...med lidt forsinkelse og tvivlsom teknologi. Niels rykker ud som den første med John Carpenters lavbudget-mesterværk, 'Assault on Precinct 13' (1976). Her er det mest skræmmende ikke de hærgende bander, men den trykkende stilhed før kuglerne begynder at flyve som popcorn i en løbsk mikrobølgeovn. En benhård western forklædt som et urbant mareridt, hvor en politistation belejres. Filmen kickstartede ikke alene Carpenters karriere, men også Sonnys isbil-traume. Efter en vejrtrækningsøvekse følger Sonny op med 'Silent Rage' (1982) (på dansk: 'Dødsmaskinen'). Filmen hvor Chuck Norris med "stoisk ro" (klinisk mangel på udstråling) og karatespark forsøger at nedlægge en trussel, der for længst burde være skvattet ned i et af manuskriptets fantastisk mange plothuller. Det er en bizar cocktail af sci-fi, slasher og martial arts, hvor Norris kæmper mod en nærmest ustoppelig dræber bygget af tvivlsom dialog og brun sovs. En film så aparte, at vi stadig diskuterer, om Chuck overhovedet opdagede, at han var med i den. Ask lukker og slukker med 'R.O.T.O.R.' (1987), filmen, der får 'Robo Vampire' til at fremstå som et Oscarværdigt Bergman-drama. Forestil dig 'RoboCop', hvis plottet var blevet hvisket gennem en dårlig telefonforbindelse af én, der kun havde hørt om originalen. Resultatet er en dræberrobot med et imponerende overskæg og smarte solbriller, der cykler (!) rundt og skyder fartsyndere. Amerikansk B-films-trash med en grad af eksistentiel forvirring, der normalt kræver flere års terapi.
Director/Actor Nick Castle remembers growing up in Hollywood with his Italian-American family eating traditional ethnic fare, having his famous movie choreographer father home for dinner after working at a nearby film studio which young Nick would often visit, and meals with his extended family in Queens, NY. He also talks about his writing collaborations with fellow USC Film School director/alum John Carpenter and ...a fortuitous visit to the original 'Halloween' movie set and the unbelievable result. A down-to-earth and sometimes unpredictable conversation with this veteran director.Don't forget to follow all of the social media! @Sarandon_Chris on Twitter @TheOfficialChrisSarandon on Instagram Chris Sarandon on Facebook www.chrissarandon.com linktr.ee/theofficialchrissarandonSubscribe on Youtube at https://youtube.com/shorts/-vGUyj0TK-Q
Welcome back to The Killer Point of View Podcast, where horror gets dissected from every angle. In this chilling episode, we head to the icy isolation of Antarctica to revisit John Carpenter's 1982 sci-fi horror masterpiece The Thing, a film that continues to redefine paranoia and body horror decades after its release.We kick things off by diving into our overall thoughts on the film, from Carpenter's atmospheric direction to Ennio Morricone's haunting score, and what makes The Thing one of the most unsettling creature features of all time.Then we explore a central theme: “Trust is a hell of a thing.” In a world where anyone could be the enemy, how do you maintain sanity, leadership, and loyalty? We place ourselves in MacReady's shoes: Would we have made the same decisions? And do we believe he was human in the end?Of course, we couldn't talk The Thing without discussing the groundbreaking special effects. What was our favorite transformation? What moment still gives us the creeps?And finally, how would The Thing play out in today's world? Would modern tech, social media, or isolation fatigue change the stakes?We close the episode with our ratings, some terrifyingly good movie recommendations, and a tease for what's coming next.Whether you're a die-hard fan or discovering The Thing for the first time, this episode will make you question everyone… including yourself.
Send us your movie recommendations!Captain and Wilson dive into John Carpenter's 1995 sci-fi horror film Village of the Damned, a remake that fails to capture the magic of the 1960 original but delivers some campy entertainment value. It stars Christopher Reeve, Kirstie Alley, and Mark Hamill.The film discussion begins around 20:30.
In which the Mister joins me in reviewing ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK (1981), from a screenplay by John Carpenter and Nick Castle, the film is directed by John Carpenter. In a future where Manhattan is a giant prison where the inmates are free to run wild, outlaw Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) gets one shot at freedom when he's coerced into a solo mission to rescue the President (Donald Pleasence) after his plane crashes inside. The film clocks in at 1 h and 39 m, is rated R and is currently streaming on Fawesome, Roku Channel and MovieSphere but also to buy/rent on Prime Video.

The Thing (1982) is on trial this week. Does it keep up appearances or is it a wolf in sheep's clothing? Gav defends his all-time favourite film with help from Mike, saying this is a masterpiece of sci-fi horror that has been often imitated but never bettered. Alex and Ausy are left cold however, citing a slapstick beginning to a film that then doesn't bother to create characters or tension, relying solely on special effects that are now outdated. All this with an impression of an incompetent Norwegian and a quiz all about the illustrious career of the man himself, Keith David. www.filmsontrial.co.uk/268 Special Guest: Mike.
Well, we've been gone for a lot longer than anticipated listeners and I've missed you! Thankfully it's been for a good reason. I've been off making some movies. There will be more news on that to come but let's just say that for fans of this podcast, these projects are right up your alley.We have a whole slew of horror masters and soon to be stars of the genre lined up for you as well as a few changes to the show including new segments with guest appearances putting a spotlight on new releases of movies, books, comics, video games and more so we're going to be gutsier than ever before.I want to take a moment to mention our Patreon. We sure could use your help keeping the show independent and bringing you even more in-depth conversations with horror's finest. As a thank you for your contribution we will be offering exclusive bonus content, prize packs filled with movies, book, autographed merch and more. You can find the link to our Patreon below or in our bio. Thank you for support!Now, let's get down to it.Our guest today wrote and directed what in my opinion, may be the most underrated movies in recent film history. I know the term “underrated” is often overused but certainly not in this case.Based on comic maestro Cullen Bunn's hit series “The Empty Man”, the film version came out in 2020 and was sadly overlooked. And folks, if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and watch it NOW. I don't mind. Pause this and go watch it.What you will see is not only one of the most truly gripping, atmospheric, legitimately unnerving and beautifully made genre films in recent memory. It will also be one of those movies I promise you will want to talk to someone about as soon as the credits roll. This is a really important genre film.Joining me to discuss the film including the many ways in which is was so terribly mishandled by the studio system and the many other challenges that went into making “The Empty Man” is the films writer and director, David Prior.David and I discuss his vision for the film version of the comic, working with a great lead actor like James Badge Dale to craft a character who is never quite who he seems and what went so terribly wrong with the films release to the point that a movie made by a major studio with a reasonable budget as far as horror films standards go didn't even receive any sort of physical media release. That's right. Not even a barebones DVD. For fans of the movie, this episode may be the most insightful look into the film you can find as there's no commentary track with David or any of the extras we've become accustomed to when we want to learn about how a movie got made. And for those of you haven't experienced the film yet, brace yourself. At one time we were one. We will all be one again. This message comes to you directly from… the empty man.

Episode 199 – Blitz//Berlin: From Punk Gigs to Horror ScoresOn this episode of Another Goddamn Horror Podcast, we sit down with Martin McPhail of the acclaimed composing trio Blitz//Berlin to talk about the craft of scoring some of our favorite horror films. Known for their work on cult hits like The Void and Psycho Goreman, Martin gives us a detailed look into their creative process, breaking down how they build suspense, emotion, and atmosphere through music. He shares how the group went from playing in a small punk band to becoming one of the most in-demand teams in modern horror composition.The conversation also drifts into our own favorite horror composers. Ryan explains why he thinks Jaws is both the best and worst horror score of all time. Jonas talks about the soundtracks that shaped his love for the genre. Graham goes deep on his appreciation for Frankie Freako and the weird gems that deserve more recognition. We touch on the influence of legends like John Carpenter, Bernard Herrmann, and Goblin, and how their legacy continues to inspire new generations of horror musicians.This episode is packed with insight, stories from behind the scenes, and a whole lot of love for the music that makes horror movies truly terrifying. If you're into horror soundtracks, independent genre films, or just want to hear how punk rock energy can evolve into cinematic brilliance, this one's for you.
