This week, we dip our toes in the Satanic Panic with this made-for-tv assault against Dungeons and Dragons". Interestingly, it's not the game's alleged connections to the dark arts that we should worry about. Instead, the film focuses on the risks of a mentally-unstable college student (a young Tom Hanks) losing himself in his fictional character.

About 40 years ago, there was a full-fledged Dungeons & Dragons panic in the United States of America, and to stoke the flames of pearl-clutching outrage, a novel was written and a TV movie was adapted from that novel, and both of those things were called MAZES AND MONSTERS.Very obviously based on a real-life urban legend and starring a barely post-pubescent Tom Hanks somehow, this thing was made as a naked ratings-grab and ends up being a laughably bad pseudo-time-capsule.Probably gonna Get This Flick Outta Here, but you never know!

We're talking about the movie that fanned a little fire in the early 1980s that would soon become the inferno of the Satanic Panic. To understand how this absolutely terrible movie was ever made and why anyone would ever make a film about a bunch of college kids playing a table top game we have to know a little about two things: Dungeons and Dragons and the Satanic Panic. Mazes and Monsters may have been released in 1982, but the social anxiety that fueled it began to take shape decades earlier.

On this week's annotated deep dive, The Cultists present Steven H Stern's ‘Mazes and Monsters' (1982). On August 15, 1979, James Dallas Egbert disappeared from his college dorm room. Subsequent investigators and the press quickly arrived at one conclusion: the still new and blossoming game Dungeons and Dragons had something, if not everything, to do with it. Fueled by the growing rise of “moral panic” and the mass media conviction in the youth-corrupting power of satan, the true story of Egbert's life was quickly twisted into a cautionary tale of what happens to children who RPG. Capitalizing on the sensational concerns, Mazes and Monsters tells this story—allegedly. Starring Tom Hanks in his first feature film role, this made for TV movie about the psychosis-inducing effects of D&D remains an important historical artifact of 80s moral panic and gaming paranoia. Even if the film itself also remains pretty unwatchable. (Episode annotated topics include: the real story behind Egbert's disappearance; the development history of D&D; the 1980s rise of “satanic panic”; and other subsequent D&D TV portrayals—from The Greatest American Hero's “Wizards and Warlocks” (1983) to Riverdale's “Griffins and Gargoyles” (2019)).

Mazes and monsters — oh my! This week, we're talking about the TV movie starring Tom Hanks from 1982. Who knew people were so afraid of Dungeons and Dragons in the '80s that there needed to be an entire made-for-TV movie to encourage kids not to play? Well, my guests, hosts of the Nintendo Cartridge Society (@nincartsociety), Mark Mitchell (@mkemitchell) and Patrick Ehlers (@patrick_ehlers), knew all about it. We have fun talking about the unnecessarily long scenes of Kate screaming out for Daniel, all of Jay Jay's hats, and the mystery of what the two towers could be (*spoiler alert* It's the World Trade Center). Join us as we explore this cautionary tale, and let me know what you think about Tom's second movie, Mazes and Monsters, @youvegothanks. — SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: Instagram Twitter: Twitter Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify
