The second in Stuart Gordon's trilogy of HP Lovecraft adaptations, FROM BEYOND is a wild, kinky, gleefully disturbing thrill ride of a movie. We're joined this week by none other than Nathan Rabin, author, culture writer, former editor of the Onion AV Club, and the man who coined the term "Manic Pixie Dream Girl!" Nathan helps us dive deep into Gordon's oeuvre, from his early days as a renegade theater producer to his era of making high-quality horror at budget prices.  Hosted by Jarrod Hornbeck and Steve Guntli  Theme song by Kyle Hornbeck  Logo by Douglas McCambridge  Email: puppetmasterscastlefreaks@gmail.com  Instagram/Threads: @puppetmasters_castlefreaks YouTube: @PuppetMastersCastleFreaks Next week's episode: Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death

R.I.P. The Emperor, aka Christopher Plummer. We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this bonus episode where Dr. Allen Berres, Michael Clink, and Mike Vanderpool discussed the 1987 masterpiece - Dragnet! “We believe bad sex and good drugs are the cornerstones of a great democracy.” In honor of our fallen spiritual spacebrother Christopher Plummer, we decided to veer away from our scheduled programming and watch 1987's Dragnet! Topics covered include the legendary Onion AV Club interview with Plummer, actors who love to work, Vanderpool's assertion that this is a perfect movie (the anti-Supergirl), turning a serious work into a loving parody, parallels with Austin Powers and Brady Bunchremake, changes to modern James Bond films, shoutout to the Bulletproof Screenwriting podcast, buddy comedy/ buddy cop film conventions, the role of the car chases in building characters and jokes, Dan Ackroyd's delivery as Friday, origins of the word “pagan,” tightness of the plot, Dabney Coleman's crazy southern lisp, pimp names and callbacks to Black Scorpion, Jack O'Halloran as the Clarence Boddicker of this movie, lifeguards don't dive in head first, the horror of Tom Hanks rapping, Shirley's disappointment that we're discussing a good movie, Plummer's underutilized villain, the role of televangelists as villains in 1980s movies, hilarious police torture doesn't quite hold up, speculation if Bill Murray could have played Streebek, Mazes and Monsters as the low point of Hanks's career, Clink's desire to see Hanks cast as a serial killer, our ongoing love of BosomBuddies, The Dead Pool and Jim Carey's forgotten early turn towards drama, the perfection of Harry Morgan as Gannon, why you can't give a message to an unconscious man, Gannon's weird willingness to believe that Friday was high enough to hallucinate the PAGAN rally, and Streebek's TV watch. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/because-you-watched/support

Austin was one of the film's strongest premiering cities for the hit film "Crazy Rich Asians," thanks to an effort from local leaders, including Christine Hoang of Color Arc Productions, to fill local theaters. Hoang, who is hosting an Asian Pacific American artist meet-up at the Vortex on Sept. 29, and Austin comedians Yola Lu and Santino Fernandez came in to talk about how the movie has rallied Austin’s Asian community. Lu and Fernandez also talked about their comedy troupes, Y’all, We Asian and Hot Pot Comedy, which host regular improv and sketch shows, including a Sept. 20 event at the Fallout Theater called "This Asian American Life." ALSO: This month’s Statesman Selects is Scott Von Doviak’s new book, “Charlesgate Confidential," and in this week's podcast, Austin360 writer Joe Gross interviews the Austin writer whose work appears in the Onion A/V Club about his fiction debut, a noir set in three time periods in Boston. In this week’s Webb Report, Eric Webb explains Matthew McConaughey’s usual recipe for making a margarita.
