Podcasts about wes craven's shocker

As horror fans, we have a lot to be thankful for, but sometimes we can't help but look back and wonder "what if...?" On this episode of Daily Dead's official podcast, co-hosts Scott Drebit, Bryan Christopher, and Derek Anderson ponder some of their favorite "what ifs" of horror movies. From George A. Romero almost directing Resident Evil to the untapped sequel potential of Wes Craven's Shocker to the directions the Phantasm franchise could have gone after the second film, listen as the co-hosts discuss what could have been on this special "what if" episode of Corpse Club!

Back in 1989 Wes Craven attempted to create a rival slasher to his creation, Freddy Kreuger with Horace Pinker, a serial killer who uses electricity to come back from the dead. Did this work? Does Shocker still spark any interest for today's audience? The Surgeons team dissect the film to find out.

Tornadoes can't keep us down! We're back after 2 weeks with Wes Craven's Shocker. 

Boo! For Halloween week, Tysto and I talk about The Omen, a pilot (loosely) based on the 1976 movie. Yeah, there isn't a lost pilot for a Halloween TV series. Anyway, rather than be about a child being primed to be the Antichrist, this version of The Omen tells the shenanigans of a demon that jumps from person to person, like The Hidden (from the same director) or Wes Craven's Shocker. So join us, won't you, as we tear apart a pilot we both actually kind of like...

Ever wondered why so many horror films from the late 80s are about executed serial killers coming back from the dead? We did, so tune in to hear our theories! We examine Wes Craven's Shocker and the more recent example Shadow: Dead Riot, while also taking in Prison, House III, The Chair and loads more. Plus test your horror knowledge with round 6 of our music & dialogue quiz, Scary Noises.

What do you get when producer Sean S. Cunningham puts Lance Henriksen and Brion James in a cheesy 80s film? You get The Horror Show AKA House III. This podcast is going to be a riot. House III is a little more obscure than our recent threequels. The film had some problems, including the director being fired and replaced in the middle of production. House III was the Wes Craven's Shocker clone of its day. Another film about a mass murderer being put to death by electrocution, only to come back as a supernatural menace exacting revenge on the cop who put him away. The Horror Show is light on scares but there's a ton of laughs. With two actors battling each other in a Nightmare of Elm Street kind of script, it has to be entertaining.

Cunningham and House III... 11:00 Flashback Capture... 14:55 The Execution... 17:00 "You have to listen to me..." 18:13 The firing of the first director... 19:05 Turkey/T.V. 20:50 The quirky Scientist... 22:20 Off Screen Death... 24:30 Good villain, horrible laugh... 26:12 WTF is going on here?! 28:10 Dream Electricity... 31:00 Brion James reflection... 32:00 Scoring the film... 36:17 Conclusion.
