Grab your canoes and your questionable 1980s short shorts — this week, Troy and Roger head to Camp Stonewater to take on The Burning, the cult slasher that gave us Cropsey, chaos, and one seriously traumatizing raft scene. They dive into the film's underdog status in the slasher canon, Tom Savini's unforgettable gore effects, and some surprisingly layered character moments hiding beneath all the sleaze. With plenty of debate over awkward camp crushes, creepy peeping Toms, and why Glazer may be the worst, the guys explore the film's take on gender roles, toxic masculinity, and camp politics. They also unpack how The Burning blends urban legend with slasher tropes — sometimes brilliantly, sometimes not-so-subtly. It's a blood-soaked trip down memory lane, filled with tender moments, brutal kills, and just enough 80s weirdness to make you think twice about summer camp.

Even though Pete's not a fan of the genre, he still has a fun talking about this film with Charlie and Dawn of the Dead SUPERFAN Anna. The message of the film wasn't lost on any of us and still hauntingly relevant to this day. It's always a good time when Tom Savini shows up in a gore-filled movie especially when he does the FX. The films short comings are addressed, excuses are made, successful defense is had and a rip roaring conversation is now published for all to hear.... Until our own zombie apocalypse begins.

The Blind Rage podcast: Horror Movie Commentaries

It's Tony's birthday and we're celebrating with THE RIPPER, a movie Tom Savini would give just about anything to forget. What does Jack the Ripper have to do with birthdays? Well, nothing. Seems like there are so few horror movies focused on celebrating one's special day and we were sure as hell not taking the endurance test that is getting through all 110 minutes of HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME. Instead, we've decided to watch London's most famous serial killer slice and dice his way through…Tulsa, Oklahoma. Don't ask.

In this spine-chilling episode of our Tales of Horror, we explore the haunting world of “The Prowler”, a 1981 slasher film that has earned its place as a cult classic in the horror genre. Join us as we dissect the creative minds behind the film, including director Joseph Zito and screenwriters Neal Barbera and Glenn Leopold. We'll delve into the performances of Vicky Dawson, Christopher Goutman, and Lawrence Tierney, while also paying homage to the legendary special effects by Tom Savini that brought the film's terrifying imagery to life. Tune in as we uncover the film's chilling narrative, its impact on the slasher movement, and why it continues to captivate horror fans decades after its release. Picking this film for this discussion is Roger Conners, otherwise known as “The Scream Queer” on Instagram and part of the Dark Night of the Podcast! His energy and knowledge was perfect for us to dive into this film, which is far much more than some of its slasher movie counterparts. Whether you're a seasoned horror aficionado or a newcomer looking to explore the darker side of cinema, this episode promises a thrilling ride through the shadows of “The Prowler”.

There's a curse at Camp Crystal Lake. It's going to be a Long Night at Camp Blood. Except that didn't turn out to be the title of this movie.The original Friday the 13th cleverly subverts horror tropes by making the killer a middle-aged mother, capitalizing on the fears associated with the number 13, as well as the success of Halloween in 1978.Betsy Palmer's portrayal of Pamela Voorhees, who only shows up in the final moments, makes her one of horror's most subversive, and yet misremembered villains. Remember that scene in Scream? The answer is not Jason Voorhees, but it is for the myriad sequels to follow...With memorable effects by Tom Savini, the success of Friday the 13th led to a surge of slasher movies throughout the early 1980s, not all as successful as this one, and also led to the death of the slasher, until A Nightmare on Elm Street came along to revive it...

What if you could step back into the 1980s and wander through the campy, eerie world of horror television? Join us for a nostalgic trip as we unravel the origins and creative genius behind the classic anthology series "Tales from the Dark Side." With roots linked to the iconic 1982 film "Creepshow" and the visionary George Romero, this series ingeniously blends humor, horror, and the supernatural. We recount the unforgettable premiere episode, "Trick or Treat," where a capitalist antihero meets a spooky fate, and reflect on Romero's tenacity in bringing his chilling vision to life despite legal hurdles.Our conversation shifts to spotlight standout episodes like "Anniversary Dinner" and "Inside the Closet," showcasing the talents of Tom Savini and Fritz Weaver. Journey into the heart of these episodes, where an albino ghoulie lurks to the haunting sounds of a theremin, evoking a sense of thrilling nostalgia. We also explore the series' cultural impact, especially through its adaptations of works by renowned authors like Harlan Ellison, Clive Barker, and Stephen King, adding layers of intrigue to an already rich tapestry of storytelling. There's even room for a laugh as we connect these eerie tales to the world of musical theater.Anthology series have evolved, but their charm remains timeless. We draw comparisons to modern successors like "The Twilight Zone" and "Black Mirror," examining the puzzle-like nature of their narratives. As we reminisce about the original "Tales from the Dark Side," we ponder its enduring appeal amidst today's streaming challenges. We wrap up our episode with a candid discussion on podcasting ethics, underscoring the value of genuine research and active listener engagement. With a sprinkle of humor, we remind our audience to support local businesses and leave no trace behind, making this episode a delightful blend of entertainment and insightful discourse.
