Inspirado nos contos clássicos de Edgar Allan Poe, o mestre Roger Corman produziu e dirigiu 8 pérolas macabras – algumas um pouco canalhas, mas sempre excelentes – que se tornaram marcos no cinema de horror dos anos 1960. Contando com Vincent Price em quase todos os filmes, o ciclo Corman-Poe é referência em ambientação gótica, horror melodramático e muita criatividade para driblar o baixo orçamento. Essa semana temos a honra de homenagear grandes nomes do horror com esse episódio: Roger Corman, Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Barbara Steele, Ray Milland, dentre outros. Todos eles enfrentam as maiores paranoias da humanidade, o medo de ser enterrado vivo, o medo de ser traído e a obsessão por batalhas com poderes mágicos e poltronas flutuantes. Junte-se a nós nessa viagem no tempo e confronte os maiores horrores que existem.O RdMCast é produzido e apresentado por: Gabriel Braga, Gabi Larocca e Thiago Natário.Apoie o RdM e receba recompensas exclusivas: https://apoia.se/rdmCITADOS NO PROGRAMA:O Solar Maldito (1960)O Poço e o Pêndulo (1961)Obsessão Macabra (1962)Muralhas do Pavor (1962)O Corvo (1963)O Castelo Assombrado (1963)Orgia da Morte (1964)O Túmulo Sinistro (1964)Citações off topic:Eu sou a Lenda (1964)Mortos que Matam (1964)Viagem ao Mundo da Alucinação (1967)A Queda da Casa de Usher (1928)A Queda da Casa Morta (livro, 2023)O Chicote e o Corpo (1963)O Intruso (1962)Muralhas do Pavor (1962)Disque M para Matar (1954)O Homem dos Olhos de Raio-X (1963)A Maldição de Frankenstein (1957)M, o Vampiro de Dusseldorf (1931)O Caso de Charles Dexter Ward (livro, 1941)Suspíria (1977)EPISÓDIOS CITADOS:RdMCast #456 – Especial Roger Corman: o mestre dos filmes BRdMCast #510 – Especial Lovecraft: A Cor Que Caiu do Espaço e o horror cósmicoRdMCast #424 – A Casa de Usher: Mike Flanagan e o PoeversoRdMCast #465 – Isso deu um remake: Museu de CeraRdMCast #525 – Especial Scream Queens: Barbara SteeleRdMCast – #185 M – Um assassino entre nósRdMCast #310 – Suspiria e a Trilogia das Três MãesINSIDER STORE COM ATÉ 30% OFFCupom: RDMCASTLink especial: https://creators.insiderstore.com.br/RDMCASTSiga o RdMYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Rep%C3%BAblicadoMedoInstagram: @republicadomedoTwitter: @RdmcastEntre em contato através do: contato@republicadomedo.com.brLoja do RdMConheça nossos produtos: https://lojaflutuante.com.br/?produto=RdmPODCAST EDITADO PORFelipe LourençoESTÚDIO GRIM – Design para conteúdo digitalPortfólio: https://estudiogrim.com.br/Instagram: @estudiogrimContato: contato@estudiogrim.com.br

Have you seen The Bride yet? No, not Maggie Gyllenhaal's new film - we mean the 1985 film by Frank Roddam, director of Quadrophenia. Like Gyllenhaal's film, it's an attempt at a female-centred sequel to Mary Shelley's novel. Unlike Gyllenhaal's film, it has an actively deranged cast list including Quentin Crisp, Alexei Sayle, Ken Campbell, David Rapaport... and, as Dr. Frankenstein, Sting.Join Graham and Mark as they divide Roddam's film cleanly into the bits that work and the bits that don't, which is made surprisingly easy by its two-stranded plot. We also discuss how the film compares to Poor Things, talk about Rapaport's remarkable career, reflect on the end of Sting's movie-star dreams and play a challenging game of FMK. Plus, an appreciation of Roddam's TV work, including one of the most groundbreaking documentaries ever made and Masterchef.If you don't want to see us reduced to joining a travelling circus, you can donate to our Patreon where we're about to follow up this episode with an exclusive bonus discussion of Roger Corman's Frankenstein Unbound - and we're also about to launch two new podcasts, including Rob's They'll Love Me When I'm Dead and Graham's The Arts Hole.

We are saying goodbye to Foreign Film February (or #FFF for the insiders) with a bang (or is it a clang?) with 1972's SEVEN BLOWS OF THE DRAGON and 1972's THE WATER MARGIN.  Is this episode the podcast equivalent of a double feature?  Not really.  You see, some of us watched SEVEN BLOWS OF THE DRAGON and one of us watched THE WATER MARGIN. And while SEVEN BLOWS OF THE DRAGON and THE WATER MARGIN are essentially the same thing except one of them is 35 minutes shorter... and makes even less sense.  Joining us is returning guest Dirk Marshall from the VH US podcast (https://www.vh-us.com/), who we normally bring in for his expertise in Canadian films, and figured he would do the same for a movie made in China.  We do our best to piece together a considerably complex plot for a movie that should be more fighting and less talking, which is exactly what Roger Corman wanted.  In addition to unraveling the plot, Erica delivers blows to the team for incorrect statements and general bossiness.  Dirk correctly points out that the nicknames applied to characters in SEVEN BLOWS OF THE DRAGON do little to trigger memory retention for the 100 characters in this movie. He also identifies good nicknames during the episode. Ryan tries his best to get the tracking right for his audio clips.  Erica talks about a totally unrelated movie.  Guess this episode is a double feature after all.

Sim, é ele mesmo, Popcorn – O Pesadelo Está de Volta! Antes mesmo do famoso Pânico, esse slasher meio esquecido do início da década apostou no humor autoconsciente e na homenagem ao horror dos anos 1950.

[School of Movies 2026] Finally, after twenty years of half-assed attempts (thirty if you count the Roger Corman production never intended to see the light of day) to bring Marvel's First Family to the big screen, they actually nailed it... mostly. First Steps delivers not just the Silver Age superheroes, but the era itself, in a gorgeous, memorable, hopeful vision of the Kennedy-Era 1960s (one where racism has been dealt with, and women don't struggle to be taken seriously). This alternate Earth of 828 is put in jeopardy when a version of Galactus (who isn't just a big angry CG cloud) comes calling. Setting aside a dedicated section to air our misgivings over two crucial factors, (wherein Sharon comes up with one subtle but significant story change that blows me away) this episode brings us closer to Doomsday, where these fantastic folks will play prominent roles.

House of Usher (1960), The Pit and the Pendulum (1961), and The Masque of the Red Death (1964) In the beginning of his career as a producer / director Roger Corman was known for cranking out cheap and fast black and white pictures that always made money. He worked in all genres, but it was mainly the horror and sci-fi pictures in the mid to late '60s he was known for. All that changed in 1960, when he convinced AIP to let him adapt a story from Edgar Allan Poe, but in color, with a bigger budget, and longer shooting schedule. That started a new phase of Corman's career, which also made an even bigger star of Vincent Price. In this episode, we take a deep dive into three of these Poe adaptations, and not necessarily looking in the faithfulness of them, but in their production, the incredible casts, the look, the style, as well as the feel of them. They really do get better each and every time you watch them. Hopefully after listening to this episode, you'll decide to either venture down this dark path for the first time, or take a revisit to admire the doom and gloom they all have. Films mentioned in this episode: The Big Bird Cage (1972), Black Sunday (1960), Chinatown (1974), City of the Dead (1960), Countess Dracula (1971), Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel (2011), Death Race 2000 (1975), Don't Look Now (1973), Duel (1971), Five Guns West (1955), The Fly (1958), Gunslinger (1956), The Haunted Palace (1963), Horror Hospital (1973), House on Haunted Hill (1959), House of Usher (1960), House of Wax (1953), Humanoids from the Deep (1980), Intruder (1962), It Conquered the World (1956), The Legend of Hell House (1973), Little Shop of Horrors (1960), Masque of the Red Death (1964), Monster from the Ocean Floor (1954), Naked Paradise (1957), Not of this Earth (1957), Pit Stop (1969), Piranha (1978), The Pit and the Pendulum (1961), Premature Burial (1962), Psycho (1960), The Raven (1963), Return of the Fly (1959), Rock 'n' Roll High School (1979), The Seventh Seal (1957), Swamp Women (1956), Tales of Terror (1962), The Terror (1963), The Tingler (1959), Trilogy of Terror (1975), The Wasp Women (1959)

Vi troede, vi skulle lave en sjov live-episode om katastrofefilm. I stedet lavede vi en katastrofe for åben scene. Med publikum. I Grand. Perfekt. Allerede fra start var noget off: lydproblemer, dårlige varsler og en fornemmelse af, at noget havde inviteret sig selv indenfor. En episode, der skulle handle om film, hvor alt går galt, valgte konsekvent selv at gå galt. Læn dig tilbage og hør katastrofen udspille sig foran et live publikum, der tappert bliver siddende, mens humøret, håbet og viljen til at leve langsomt siver ud af salen. Og vi må lige understrege, at vi fandt på episodens titel INDEN vi optog den... Ask vælter første dominobrik med 'When the Wind Blows' (1986). En animeret feelgood-film om atomkrig til folk, der hader glæde. Et ældre britisk ægtepar følger statens gode råd, mens verden stille og roligt går under omkring dem. Stemningen dør, men publikum overlever med nød og næppe. Dette ser Niels og tænker: "Det kan jeg gøre bedre... jeg mener, værre!" og prompte hiver han 'Threads' (1984) frem. BBC's nådesløse undersøgelse af, hvad der sker hvis alle dør og ingen lærer noget, sætter virkelig gang i festen. Trøstesløs realisme, forkullede fremtidsudsigter og kollektiv dødsangst. For at redde aftenen (og sig selv) smider Mr. Sunshine (!) derefter 'The Fantastic Four' (1994) på bordet: Roger Corman, en million dollars, og en Marvel-film så katastrofal, at den aldrig udkom. Sonny prøver tappert at være den voksne på scenen med 'Rollercoaster' (1977). Rutsjebaner, terrorisme og tv-stemning. Der er sådan set ikke meget galt med filmen - passer godt til Moviebox - men ér det overhovedet en katastrofefilm? Bedøm selv. Til alle jer i salen (og jer der lytter med derhjemme) tak fordi I blev siddende. Tak fordi I ikke rejste jer og forlod Grand i tavs protest, hvilket ellers tydeligvis var den mest fornuftige ting at gøre. Vi lover (måske), at vi aldrig laver en katastrofefilmaften igen. Vi lover (helt sikkert), at vi ikke lærer noget af det. Men lige meget hvad, så HUSK: Spol altid episoden tilbage, når du har lyttet færdigt. Med venlig hilsen,Ask, Sonny, Niels & Casper

Non che nella realtà fossi infelice, ma con i film ero più felice"Non è certo facile essere un ribelle, specialmente se lavori a Hollywood. E ne sa qualcosa il buon vecchio Joe Dante, uno degli allievi prediletti di Roger Corman che riuscì a imporsi sulla scena del cinema degli anni '80 per poi lottare costantemente per un cinema più genuino e coraggioso.Piccola puntata extra per chiudere codesta rassegna e per non dimenticarci della carriera televisiva di Dante con il suo delizioso e perfido film tragicomico "La seconda guerra civile americana", delirante ma anche sinistra satira sull'America e i suoi valori ormai completamente inesistenti.https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=9777&awinaffid=2619870&campaign=&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ibs.it%2Fofferte-libri%2Fcoperta-in-regalo-con-due-tascabili-feltrinelli

Best Of — Robert Walker (Buddha Jones): Craft, Emotion & the Art of the Trailer

What does it mean to truly feel a trailer—and how do you translate that feeling into something that moves an audience? In this Best Of Trailer Geeks & Teaser Gods episode, Corey Nathan revisits his wide-ranging, deeply personal conversation with Robert Walker, one of the most influential and respected trailer editors working today. From his early experiments with cassette-tape collages and experimental music to shaping iconic campaigns at Intralink and Buddha Jones, Robert shares how a lifelong obsession with sound, rhythm, and emotion led him to a career defined not by formulas—but by feeling. This conversation spans decades of trailer history, touching on legendary campaigns for Batman Begins, Cinderella Man, A.I. Artificial Intelligence, The Social Network, The Book of Eli, Out of the Furnace, The Harder They Fall, and more. Along the way, Robert reflects on mentorship, artistic risk, industry shifts, and why unresolved emotion is the most powerful tool a trailer editor has. Whether you're a trailer editor, filmmaker, marketer, or creative of any kind, this episode is a masterclass in why craft matters—and why the best work starts with intuition, not templates. Key Takeaways Emotion Is the Job Robert explains that the ultimate goal of a trailer isn't explanation—it's feeling. A successful piece creates emotional tension that compels audiences to lean in and want more. Childhood Roots Shape Creative Voice From discovering Walkabout and Stockhausen records at the library to cutting cassette-tape collages, Robert traces how early experimentation laid the foundation for his editorial instincts. Short Form, Maximum Freedom Why trailers—rather than features—offered Robert the creative latitude he craved: non-linear storytelling, music-driven structure, and constant reinvention. Learning Through Repetition Cutting dozens of trailers at Roger Corman-adjacent companies gave Robert invaluable reps, sharpening both craft and judgment at speed. Mentorship & Creative Friction Stories from Intralink—including spirited debates with Anthony Goldschmidt—reveal how conflict, trust, and passion often lead to the strongest work. Teasers Aren't Ads—They're Invitations Robert reframes teasers as emotional groundwork, not sales pitches—particularly in franchise resets like Batman Begins. Adapting Without Betraying the Film From melancholy character studies (Out of the Furnace) to stylized genre pieces (The Harder They Fall), Robert discusses how to elevate a film while staying emotionally honest. Timing Can't Be Taught Comedy, horror, action—it all comes down to rhythm, anticipation, and release. And sometimes, knowing when to stop tweaking. Don't Cut the Same Way Twice Robert's advice to emerging editors: vary your approach. Start with music, dialogue, story, or even the ending—just don't get stuck in one process. Notable Quotes "The single most important thing we do is create a feeling—and leave it unresolved."  "If you're thinking too much about how the audience will feel, you stop being emotionally open yourself."  "You can't really teach timing. You know it when you feel it."  "Teasers aren't always about selling the movie. Sometimes they're about demolishing expectations." "If you always approach a piece the same way, you're going to miss something."  About Our Guest Robert Walker Trailer Editor — Buddha Jones Formerly Intralink Film Known for work on Batman Begins, Cinderella Man, A.I. Artificial Intelligence, The Book of Eli, The Social Network (TV), The Harder They Fall, and more. Robert is widely regarded as one of the most emotionally intuitive editors in the industry, blending experimental instincts with mainstream storytelling at the highest level.

REUPLOAD! (There was an issue with the episode art, apologies.)It's October again, and you know what that means: spooky movies! Or at least, movies we think are going to be spooky until we actually watch them. This month, we checked out Roger Corman's "Frankenstein Unbound" from 1990, starring friends of the show William Hurt and Raul Julia. A bizarre mashup of Frankenstein, Back to the Future, Knight Rider, and Army of Darkness, and starring some of our favorite actors, we were shocked that we hadn't heard of this movie before. Until we saw it. Then it kinda made sense.Float along with the manatees as they discuss paradoxes, an embarrassingly outdated understanding of neurology, and what is and isn't an acceptable way to treat a car, and whether or not this should have been an episode of Star Trek. Don't worry, it's not actually all that scary (although definitely watch the movie in question first if you plan on showing it to any kids).

He smells, right? He's a drifter, so...smelly is a big possibility, right? How dangerous is it to lose your sense of smell? We discuss!  Written and directed by Larry Brand, who also acts in the movie, Brand's directorial debut, and also the debut of him writing, acting, and directing a movie as well, this also brings up the problems with conducting your business at the Oki Dog and giving family heirlooms to a stranger. Also, how important is project management? Why are people not going to movie theaters anymore? And, do cats like the ocean? THE DRIFTER brings up some serious and delicate topics, and we do our best to rip the door off of them all.  So sit back and relax on that motel floor in the room you've just rented from some motel that is somewhere between the Bay Area and Los Angeles but also somehow near mountains, and enjoy this smoldering, sex-filled thriller that tears the lid off of doing your due diligence when hiring people.

"This was a story about a group of society's unskilled, even illiterate, high school dropouts in a technologically advanced society. Some were psychologically maladjusted. They don't answer want ads for Draftsman, Tool and Die Maker, or Aircraft Fabricator. What is the life of a man with an 80 IQ? Janitor? Street sweeper? Gas station attendant? So why work in a demeaning job? They say: 'Fuck it, I'll get a girl who'll work and she'll collect unemployment and we'll scam together and we'll end up living together almost as well as if I were working. But at least I'm free. It beats holding down some crummy job all my life.' I saw the Hell's Angel riding free as a modern-day cowboy. The chopper was his horse. The locales would be the wide-open spaces- the beach, the desert, the mountains. I also remembered Sonny Barger's remark that 'we're not losers.' The most famous Angel of them all, and the president of the powerful Oakland chapter, was proud. A "winner" in society's terms meant being Mr. Assistant Sales Manager Barger, not Sonny Barger on a gleaming, growling chopper. The Angels were an intriguiging social phenomenon, and I wanted to tell it like it is." - Roger Corman with Jim Jerome, "How I Made A Hundred Movies In Hollywood (and Never Lost A Dime)" Featuring a brief surprise appearance by Jim Laczkowski!

His story isn't just about making films; it's about mastering the art of connecting with audiences, something every filmmaker must learn to survive in today's crowded digital landscape.In this insightful conversation, Brad shares how his early work with genre films like Camel Spiders and Piranhaconda taught him to write effectively within tight budgets—what he calls “creative boot camp.” But beyond writing, Brad's passion lies in empowering filmmakers to take control of their marketing and distribution. Through Smart House Creative, he helps filmmakers bridge the gap between creation and audience engagement, teaching them that film promotion isn't an afterthought—it's part of the storytelling process. From mastering hashtags to building authentic social media presence, Brad emphasizes that success in the indie film world comes from persistence, preparation, and genuine connection, not shortcuts or vanity metrics.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

We are continuing #New-woirvember 2 with the noir-adjacent, FOXTROT, from 1976.  It's not often you find this much star power in a New World Pictures joint. FOXTROT stars Peter O'Toole (LAWRENCE OF ARABIA), Charlotte Rampling (DUNE) and Max von Sydow (THE EXORCIST).  They're just a bunch of fun, outgoing people giving it a go on a desert island as World War 2 looms on the horizon.  That isn't true at all, Liviu (O'Toole) and Julia (Rampling) are in a miserable marriage and Larsen (Sydow) is a disgruntled employee wishing his boss would just die already.   As it turns out, living on a desert island is just what the doctor ordered.  Literally.  They spend the day eating marmalade and drinking Brandy and wine.  They race sand crabs, see how long they can hold their breath underwater and watch movies in their tent theater.  They even have guests stop by and by "stop by" we mean take a weeks-long journey by boat for a weekend of partying and shooting all the seals on the island.  Fun! We attempt to unpack the many loose ends this movie proposes but never resolves.  For example, how do people so unprepared for island living make it so long on a desert island? Marc talks about pooping.... again.  We struggle to pronounce Jorge Luke's character name (Eusebio) so we just call him "Sussudio".  Ryan's research uncovers how Roger Corman packaged and re-packaged this movie to be something it is not. FOXTROT is part British drama, a bit of noir and a dash of John Carpenter's THE THING.  All roads return to THE THING.  All.  Roads.

In 1960, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho introduced the world to the future of my horror. But before the genre would embrace it, it would first confront it's very origins with a boom of Gothic Horror films that would make icons out of people like Vincent Price, Barbara Steele, and Christopher Lee. Perhaps no one would have a greater impact on this era of the macabre than Roger Corman, the b-movie king whose adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe's classic works changed horror forever. Perhaps nonemoreso than his 1961 classic The Pit and the Pendulum. This week on Years of Fear, we explore the legacy of Corman, Poe, Vincent Price, and the gothic horror films of the early 1960s.        If you want to get in touch with the show, you can reach us at yearsoffearpodcast@gmail.com

"Come back, come back, come back, Bridey Murphy back to the place you once knew in a land where you were so happy and to those who loved you so true" - "The Ballad of Bridey Murphy", Eddy McKean The Undead is the past life of Roger Corman's Edgar Allan Poe movies. What did he keep, what (and who) did he ditch, and did women really have such drastic support garments in 1347 or whenever this is supposed to take place?

It's that time again! It's October. The sun goes down in the afternoon now. Night has a chill. And at CVS and Walgreens, they are already putting up the Christmas decorations. That's right, it's Halloween. But none of that for us! We are firmly planted in autumn. As Ray Bradbury once wrote, “Something, something, something, autumn something.” By Ray Bradbury. We have enough show here to stuff your pillowcase, so grab a bag of candy and settle back. Howard Berger and Marshall Julius are here to discuss their new book, Making Monsters, inside stories from the creators of Hollywood's most iconic creatures. This is a terrific book, basically it's a high school yearbook for professional monster kids. Rick Baker, Tom Savini, Michael Giacchino, Larry Karaszewski, Ve Neill, Richard Edlund, Derek Mears, Bill Corso, David Dastmalchian, Mick Garris, Mike Mendez. The list goes on and on and on. Monster kids who grew up but never put it away, and followed their passions right into show business. Packed with photos and interviews, it's really a terrific piece. Making Monsters, by Howard Berger. The Academy Award winning make up artist, he is the B in KNB FX and Marshall Julius, author and film critic and - get this – he's British. He's from the United States of Britain. Daren Docterman is also here. Daren is an illustrator and set designer, he's worked on The Abyss, Monster House, Master and Commander, he was the VFX supervisor on the director's cut of Star Trek - The Motion Picture. He, along with Mark Altman and Ashley Miller, make up The Inglourious Trexperts. Check out that podcast. And, like Howard Berger and Marshall Julius. He's a pal. We've had meals. Quite a few. Daren Dochterman. True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into American International Pictures and it's genre output in the '50s and '60s. It gave us Roger Corman, It Conquered The World, Invasion Of The Saucer Men, The Amazing Colossal Man, I Was a Teenage Werewolf. And then it segued into the '60s with the Vincent Price / Edgar Allen Poe films like The House Of Usher, The Pit and The Pendulum, and so and and so forth. And then, as a Halloween bonus, we're going to go back into the archives and present you the True Tales we did on Orson Welles' War Of The Worlds broadcast. It's all here. It's all for you. And now, I can hear the kids at the door, and so it is on to our filthy business.
