If you're a fan of SCREAM then you're going to want to pay attention to today's episode featuring none other than Stu Macher and Billy Loomis themselves, Matthew Lillard and Skeet Ulrich. They're appearing in the upcoming Five Nights At Freddy's 2 and they decided to stop by The Kingcast to talk about their love of King's work and specifically Frank Darabont's adaptation of The Shawshank Redemption. We also talk about their real life friendship, the stain that is toxic masculinity, working with Wes Craven on the original Scream, and even about Skeet's rather... interesting... appearance as a poster above Satan and Saddam Hussein's bed in South Park.

We're back this week, with a movie that take the traditional voodoo angle on zombies. Behold THE SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW from 1988. Directed by Wes Craven.  A young Bill Pullman portrays a young enthobotanist who travels to Haiti in search of a portion that revives the dead.   Intro:                    “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:                 “We All Die Laughing”– The Angelic Process

Today on Too Opinionated we visit with actor W. Earl Brown.  Wes Craven was an early supporter, casting Earl in New Nightmare, A Vampire in Brooklyn and the role of "Kenny" in the classic, Scream. Two years after the success of Scream, Earl played "Warren", Cameron Diaz's mentally challenged brother, in There's Something About Mary. Among his many other film credits are the highly regarded films: Being John Malkovich, The Master, The Sessions , Wild , Black Mass, and the Netflix hits - The Highwaymen and The Unforgivable. On television, Earl has guest starred in many series, including: The Mandalorian, Luck, Seinfeld, Hacks, Yellowstone, American Horror Story, Justified, X-Files, Six Feet Under, and NYPD Blue. Among the TV movies he has been involved with, was the starring role in VH1's Meatloaf: To Hell and Back. He played "Tom Carlin" in ABC's highly acclaimed anthology series American Crime (2015) and "Teague Dixon" in HBO's True Detective. He is probably best known as "Dan Dority" in HBO's Deadwood. During that series' second season, the show's creator, David Milch, invited him to join the writing staff. In 2007, Earl earned a WGA nomination for writing on a drama series and a SAG nomination for best drama ensemble acting. Establishing himself on a show as critically lauded as Deadwood opened doors for other writing projects, including the Sony release, Bloodworth, which Earl wrote and produced. Earl can currently be seen as Wes Fox on Sheriff Country. In addition to his television and film work, Earl co-starred in Sony's The Last Of Us, 2013 Video Game Of The Year. He also writes music and records with Sacred Cowboys, an LA based Americana band. In 2018, he combined his love of music and film by co-creating the short film, Dad Band, which racked up 1.3 million views on YouTube.

Actor Matthew Lillard (Scream, Scooby Doo) discusses his varied career in spooky movies, his lifelong love for Dungeons & Dragons, and delves into the surprising connections between horror and comedy.

Drew Barrymore, Neve Campbell, Ghostface… this movie had no right being this clever.Here's what we break down:

Freddy's father returns to the franchise as Adam and Jared pour through 1994's, Wes Craven's New Nightmare. And provide a succinct list of movies they have recently watched.

Este capítulo le clava sus garras a la séptima película de la saga Krueger: Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994), que es cuando Wes Craven volvió para resucitar a la creación que no tocaba desde la original. Como es de esperarse, Craven viene sin muchas ganas de repetirse, por lo que empieza a jugar a otra cosa. Fascinante. Mi invitada para este capítulo es la antropóloga/investigadora/académica María Paz Peirano que se lanzó con todo al kruegerismo.

Tra i molti generi cinematografici, l'Horror è uno dei pochi a mantenere sempre e comunque una certa attrattiva che porta sempre e comunque il pubblico davanti al grande schermo. La verità è che l'orrore è una delle sensazioni primordiali più difficili da combattere e forse solo al Cinema è possibile esorcizzarlo.Ecco a voi le storie horror cinematografiche degne di nota per provare terrore, disgusto oppure desolazione.Dopo il successo del film di Wes Craven, tutti volevano rivedere Freddy Krueger sul grande schermo.La New Line Cinema cercò però di non offrire una minestra riscaldata e, facendo ciò, offrì al pubblico il famigerato "Nightmare 2-La rivincita", il capitolo più odiato dai fan ma che si è creato anche un certo seguito con il tempo. 01.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Francine Prose: Reflections on 1974 and the Pentagon Papers Francine Prose, author of “1974, A Personal History” in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky. The author of twenty novels and ten books of non fiction, Francine Prose is best known for such novels as “Lovers at the Chameleon Club, 1932,” “The Vixen,” “Household Saints” and “Mister Monkey,” and non-fiction such as “Anne Frank: The Book, the Life, The Afterlife,” Francine Prose has also written two short story collections , and a picture book. Two of her novels have become films, and one, “The Glorious Ones,” became a Broadway musical. In this book, she recalls her time hanging out with Anthony Russo, who along with Daniel Ellsberg, was responsible for The Pentagon Papers, in San Francisco in 1974 and then a few months later, in New York, capturing the vibe of what it was like to live in that time and place, and differences between then and now. Complete Interview.   Wes Craven (1939-2015): Master of Horror Movies. Wes Craven (1939-2015), noted director of horror and genre films, interviewed by Richard Wolinsky and Richard A. Lupoff on October 13, 1999 while on tour for his one novel, “Fountain Society.” Wes Craven, who died at the age of 76 on August 30, 2015, was considered one of the masters of cinema's horror genre. Best known for The Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream films, ,He was best known for two series of films, the Nightmare on Elm Street films, and the Scream series, which also served as an academic deconstruction of the genre. Starting life as a humanities professor, Wes Craven moved over to film as first a sound editor, and then film editor before turning to writing and directing with The Last House on the Left. Along with the first Nightmare film (and the deconstruction last New Nightmare entry), he directed all four Scream films, along with Red Eye, Cursed, The Serpent and the Rainbow, and the non-genre Meryl Streep vehicle, Music of the Heart. His first and only novel, “Fountain Society,” was published in 1999, and it was during his book tour that he stopped by KPFA where he was interviewed by Richard Wolinsky and Richard A. Lupoff. That interview was digitized and re-edited in 2017 by Richard Wolinsky.

This week, Metal Messiah Jon Snow has a job lined up for the gang so they can all get rich beyond their wildest dreams. The job? Robbing a home occupied by the ghoulish elite. After botching the job almost immediately, the gang is held captive in a holding cell with a group of cannibals who aid them in reviewing the underrated Wes Craven joint, “THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS!” The cannibals may seem scary, but boy are they insightful little buggers! 

Jean-Baptiste Del Amo"La notte devastata"Traduzione di Maria BaiocchiGamma Feltrinelliwww.feltrinelli.it«Nel romanzo si sentono gli echi di storie di paura di Stephen King e H.P. Lovecraft, così come dei film di Wes Craven, a partire da un classico del genere horror come Nightmare (1984), e di David Cronenberg.» - Severino Colombo, La LetturaSaint-Auch: una sfilza di case rosa pesca e di floridi prati, giardinetti rocciosi, siepi di alloro o di tuia. Dalle finestre si odono a volte provenire grida, insulti, pianti. Un bambino che urla, un cane che guaisce. Ma nessuno se ne cura, in questa piccola città a venticinque chilometri da Tolosa. Thomas, Mehdi, Alex, Max e Lena sono una banda di ragazzi. Vivono nello stesso quartiere e fanno tutto ciò che è dato fare ad adolescenti degli anni novanta. Comprano robaccia da quelli più grandi e la fumano distesi sui tetti delle pensiline degli autobus o su vecchi divani piazzati nelle antiche serre di Saint-Auch, dove si rifugiano ad ascoltare i Nirvana o a guardare film horror, giusto per sentire i loro cuori battere. A volte si cimentano in stupide sfide: nuotare in una cisterna d'acqua, fare telefonate anonime, tirare petardi in un terreno incolto. Qualcuno è umiliato a scuola, qualcun altro cerca l'amore, tutti mettono alla prova i loro desideri. Quando passano davanti a l'impasse des Ormes, il loro sguardo è catturato da una casa in fondo al vicolo cieco, una casa che sembra acquattata in una penombra vischiosa e fredda, dietro i nodi inestricabili dei rovi e l'ombra proiettata dai muri. C'è chi avverte una sensazione di déjà-vu, come se conoscesse il posto o l'avesse sognato, c'è chi sente un brivido corrergli lungo la schiena. La casa è marchiata con il sigillo del proibito a Saint-Auch, e i ragazzi l'hanno sempre tenuta alla periferia dei loro giochi e delle loro esplorazioni. Quando, però, uno di loro muore in circostanze orribili, in una notte da fiera demoniaca, come un ragno nero in attesa di una preda la casa li inghiotte in un incubo senza fine.Jean-Baptiste Del Amo è nato nel 1981 a Tolosa ed è uno dei più noti e apprezzati scrittori francesi contemporanei. Tra le sue opere figurano Une éducation libertine (Gallimard, 2008; Prix Goncourt du premier roman), Le sel (Gallimard, 2010), Pornographia (Gallimard, 2013), Règne animal (Gallimard, 2016; finalista per il Prix Goncourt, il Prix Femina, il Prix Médicis), Le fils de l'homme (Gallimard, 2021; vincitore del Prix Fnac e finalista per il Prix Femina).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Happy Halloween!! Join us as we do a live commentary of the Wes Craven classic, Scream (1996). Intro and Outro music by igor-fedyk

Wes Craven's 1984 horror classic A Nightmare on Elm Street introduced Freddy Krueger, a dream-stalking slasher who kills teens in their sleep—kills that become real—and was inspired by a chilling true epidemic of Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death Syndrome (SUNDS) among Southeast Asian refugees in the late 1970s–80s. A young Cambodian survivor of the Khmer Rouge genocide (1975–79, ~2 million dead) resettled in the U.S., tormented by nightmares of being chased, resisted sleep for days, then died mysteriously in bed with no autopsy findings; the CDC documented over 100 similar cases of healthy young Hmong, Laotian, and Cambodian men dying overnight. Locally explained via folklore—like the Philippine batibat hag or Thai widow ghost suffocating victims—these deaths were later linked to Brugada syndrome, a genetic heart arrhythmia triggered by stress, heavy meals, or PTSD, though the "hundred years' enigma" remains unsolved, blending real trauma with cinematic terror.   Sources: Brugada syndrome: MedlinePlus Genetics.

This episode in our Tales of Horror series centers on the characters who haunt Elm Street, from Nancy's legacy to the new dream-warriors who take up the fight in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. We highlight Heather Langenkamp's enduring heroine Nancy Thompson, Patricia Arquette's breakout energy, and Robert Englund's chilling and iconic Freddy Krueger. We also examine how the film gives space to a diverse ensemble, including Craig Wasson, Ken Sagoes, Rodney Eastman, Jennifer Rubin, Bradley Gregg, Ira Heiden, Laurence Fishburne and Penelope Sudrow—while weaving in the returning favorites such as John Saxon. Director Chuck Russell, with inspiration from Wes Craven's original dream logic and Frank Darabont's storytelling craft, crafts a nightmare that remains a touchstone for the genre. From the dream-world rules and inventive death sequences to the film's legacy in horror cinema, this episode covers what made Dream Warriors a fan favorite and a turning point in the series.Where To Watch A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors

Do you like scary movies? No, seriously, do you? Because we're getting META today as we dive into Wes Craven's iconic horror romp, Scream! Along the way, we discuss favorite Halloween costumes, the most shippable gay love story in slasher history, and how microbangs are a sequel indicator! Watch this episode in video form over on our PATREON!

In the early 1990s, the college town of Gainesville,Florida was paralyzed by fear. Over just three days, five students were brutally murdered in their own apartments, victims of Danny Rolling, the man the press would call The Gainesville Ripper. His crimes were savage, his methods deliberate, and the terror he left behind felt like something straight out of a horror movie.Years later, screenwriter Kevin Williamson watched a documentary about those killings while home alone. That fear he experienced while watching that documentary became the spark for Wes Craven's Scream (1996). Set in the quiet town of Woodsboro, Scream follows a masked killer who taunts his victims with phone calls and deadly games, blurring the line between fiction and reality. What began as a true story of terror became a movie that made us all ask the same question…“What's your favorite scary movie?”Sources:World's Most Evil Killers: S3,EP13 https://maamodt.asp.radford.edu/psyc%20405/serial%20killers/rolling,%20danny%20-%202004.pdfhttps://www.ksla.com/video/2024/03/29/archives-murders-tom-julie-sean-grissom-shreveport-la-1989/https://www.shreveporttimes.com/story/news/crime/2019/11/08/grissom-family-murders-shreveport-louisiana-gainesville-murders/4157607002/https://www.aetv.com/articles/how-serial-killer-danny-rolling-inspired-scream-with-his-1990-slayingshttps://people.com/serial-killer-gainesville-ripper-danny-rolling-exclusive-11763591https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rollinghttps://www.tampabay.com/archive/1993/02/20/5-dead-may-have-been-stalked/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTvIh8rC4akSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week we return to Elm Street to do battle with Freddy Krueger once more but this time in the real world with the real actors of the film in New Nightmare. Journey with us as we discuss this wild slasher revival that brings Wes Craven back into the fold as writer/director and a story that blurs the lines with film and reality. Is this the jumpstart the franchise needs or is this meta idea too ridiculous for its own good? So pour some rye, get your T-Rex stuffed animal, and don't forget to read the script. Cheers!

Forget spooky times this week, lil onions, it's FUSSY TIMES as Ross and Carie go back and forth on Wes Craven's iconic A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). Carie has been a longtime fan of these films, and Ross is just now seeing the flagship film for the first time--and he's not impressed. Carie is a sucker for some quality special effects shots while Ross finds the logic of most of the movie somehow ridiculous despite the premise. Robert Englund however stuns as always, and the siblings are low-key obsessed with the body of work that is Heather Langenkamp.  SUPPORT US ON PATREON! 

Happy Spooky Season, Everyone! As many of you know, scary movies freak me out. But that doesn't mean I don't love today's guest! Today I'm talking to a horror icon— Freddy himself, Robert Englund! Robert is beloved for his performance as Freddy Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street and its many sequels. He has also had an illustrious career outside of Wes Craven's franchise, appearing in hundreds of films and TV shows, including a recent appearance as Victor Creel in Stranger Things. On Halloween of this year, he will be immortalized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and it could not be going to a sweeter, more generous person. Robert is a joy to talk with and I'm so honored he took the time to chat with me. We have gotten to know each other over years at conventions and we have a great conversation about what it's like to be associated with an iconic role, his warm relationship with horror fans and how he used his experience on-set to inform his performance as Freddy. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did— and Happy Halloween!
