Podcasts about Wes Craven

This week we're making dreams come true with 1997's throwback creature feature WISHMASTER. Featuring a who's who of horror both in front and behind the camera, the birth of the Djinn makes for a fun romp in the vein of not only 80s splatter horror, but also the classic Universal Monsters of yore. With FX from KNB and appearances from Robert Englund, Tony Todd, Kane Hodder, Reggie Bannister, Ted Raimi, the voice of Angus Scrimm along with an executive production credit by Wes Craven, this is a Dream Team of creatives for a B-movie. Mike, Brian and Devaughn are joined by guest John Seavey of the Half Priced Horror podcast but be careful what you wish for, because dreams can turn to nightmares pretty quick. Also, what's with all the smoking?

This week King Prince,Killah Keel,& Wes Craven debate/determine the best Hip Hop album of 1994 (bracket style).They also discuss new music (Snoop,LNDN DRGS,Chuck D,Masta Killa),Joey Bada$$ vs Ray Vaughn & Daylyt,Remy vs Papoose,and of course everything current in the culture.Tune in for unfiltered Hip Hop discussion.

In this wild Southern-fried horror tale by David O'Hanlon, a high school couple heads to a legendary swamp for one last unforgettable night—but instead of romance, they meet the horrifying truth behind a town's oldest legend. What follows is a bloody, black-humored, creature-feature ride full of scares, screams, and swampy secrets.From cursed brothels to mutated monsters and dark folklore, Gator Boy of Dead Ore Swamp blends slasher-style thrills with campfire horror in a gruesome coming-of-age nightmare.Featuring:• A terrifying cryptid born of swamp revenge• Carnage, teens, and toothy justice• A showdown deep in the muck with a reptilian legend

The 90's were such a wonderful time for horror. 1996 In particular really kickstarted a new wave of horror, especially the rebirth of slashers. Yes, we all know Scream but there was firehose of teens getting butchered in the late 90's to 2000's and Urban Legend was one of the most memorable ones starring a who's who of teen icons! Friend of the pod (and good friend of mine) Clay joins me to discuss real Urban Legends, working on film sets, other movies and so very much more! If you're not doing so already, please like and follow Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook. I do free movie giveaways, mini movie reviews and more! Also, I decided to dabble in making my own slasher film entitled “Bishop's Day”. Check out the Instagram page for updates.

Escaped convicts kidnap and harm two teen girls who stop for weed in the city on their way to a rock concert.The Last House on the Left is a controversial film due to the depiction of sexual violence in the movie. Many regard it as a horror classic that has had wide-ranging influence on the genre. After multiple watches, we have differing opinions on the movie than Wes Craven fans of his first film. Does the movie hold up after all these years?

Cooper and Nolan are plugging in this week when they cover Wes Craven's SHOCKER! This supernatural serial killer story is heavy on action but light on details, which left the guys having to guess how or why a lot of stuff was happening. Maybe that's why they spent their time pulling from other movies like Poltergeist, Ghostbusters, and the director's own Nightmare on Elm Street to try to make sense of it. Still, with bigtime 80s horror vibes and a title that's easy to confuse with something else, you might want to find something to bite down on; this episode (featuring a beer from the Powerhouse Brewing Company) is 100,000 volts of fun!

Send us a textActor Page Kennedy joins the show to discuss his upcoming film A Breed Apart. A loosely based remake of Wes Craven's The Breed, the film marks yet another role in a long and diverse career in film. We discuss Page's career in film as well as in rap music as he drops his sixth album, Born To Fire, on the same day as the release of the film.Check out A Breed Apart releasing in theaters and On Demand on Friday, May 16th, as well as Page Kennedy's album Born To Fire out on the same day.Follow us on Social Media: @pvdhorror Instagram, X, TikTok, FacebookWatch us on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@pvdhorrorSpecial thanks to John Brennan for the intro and outro music.

We all know the GOOD horror movie remakes; The Thing, The Fly, The Blob, etc, but what about the remakes that are a little more underappreciated? Everyone now is foolishly remaking good movies into meh/garbage films, but what about taking a solidly meh movie to begin with and giving it a loving touchup? Wes Craven's 1977 ‘The Hills Have Eyes” is a bland version of the Sawney Bean legend, but what if that was jazzed up a bit into, say, a 2006 retelling focusing on the dangers of nuclear testing in the American Southwest? Well say what if no longer, because that's what we're covering today.

This week King Prince,Killah Keel & Wes Craven dicuss their new podcast soundtrack,new music (Lloyd Banks,Billy Woods,Boldy James,Benny The Butcher,Westside Gunn),the lack of new cemeteries,and of course everything current in the culture.Tune in for unfiltered Hip Hop discussion.

As we dive deeper into supernatural serial killer month we arrive here at Wes Craven's Shocker. A movie about a serial killer who develops electricity powers that let him jump from body to body to escape his son who has dream foresight powers and was raised in foster care by the cop who is out to stop him. You know that old chestnut but did we like it? Were we perplexed by some of the plot holes? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

A schizophrenic serial killer comes back to his hometown to kill the seven kids who were prematurely born on the day he reportedly died. My Soul to Take is a movie that we have long criticized for being a weak slasher in almost every possible way. It's even more unfortunate to know that it was directed by Wes Craven. This film has some interesting concepts that are not only poorly executed, but they also fail to develop into anything meaningful at any point. Not to mention, there are a ton of overplayed cliches and cringey, forgettable characters. Watch the movie and catch our review. Subscribe to our YouTube channel @thefinalpodcast  Join the Discord | https://discord.gg/UFtVP243Follow us on Facebook The Final Podcast Follow us on Instagram @thefinalpodcastFollow us on X @thefinalpodeverMusic Credit: Karl Casey @ White Bat Audiohttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_6h...What should we review next?

Send us a textThis week, we continue our Rebels With A Cause theme, with the added shake-up that the film must include a surprise cameo.  And so, we watch the horror movie that rebelled against all of the usual tropes of its genre by being self-aware:  1996's "Scream" directed by Wes Craven and starring Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, David Arquette and Matthew Lillard.... with not one, but THREE cameos.  We also dive into "Randy's Horror Rules," as well as explore different themes in horror throughout the last century of filmmaking.  So, instead of getting drunk, announcing "I'll be right back," and heading into that desolate basement alone while a murderer is on the loose, come listen to our podcast instead; it's a killer episode!

¡Bonus KruegerCast! Antes de seguir repasando la saga del pesadillo favorito de todos los niños y niñas de Elm Street, nos daremos una vuelta por la ópera prima de Wes Craven, la perturbadora THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT (1972).

Y como este es un programa exhaustivo, conversamos también sobre la inspiración de Wes Craven para esta película, la bella-además-de-perturbadora LA FUENTE DE LA DONCELLA (1960) de Ingmar Bergman, y sobre el remake THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT (2009), producido por Wes Craven y dirigido por Dennis Illiadis. ¡Ojalá les guste!

Upon robbing the home of his landlords, Fool notices there are unusual men being kept under the stairs in the basement floor. He also discovers a young girl named, Alice in the home as he attempts to escape from under the noses of his landlords.The People Under the Stairs is a hidden gem from Wes Craven and a movie that sometimes feels over the top in all the right ways. Everett McGill and Wendy Robie stand out as the landlords who are constantly chasing Fool throughout the movie and continue to raise the meter on how evil they can be. This is also not to mention that they are capturing and keeping people in their basement in a sectioned area under the stairs. This is a nice kickoff to Wes Craven month and a movie that is enjoyable to watch each time it's on.

In this chilling episode of Earth Station Boo, we're joined by Bill Mulligan to dive deep into the twisted brilliance of Wes Craven, the undisputed Master of Horror. From A Nightmare on Elm Street to Scream, we explore Craven's legendary story telling, dissect what defines a “Wes Craven film,” and share our personal favorites from […] The post Master of Horror: Horror doesn't create fear it releases it | Earth Station Boo appeared first on The ESO Network.

What do you get when you ask Wes Craven, creator of 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' and 'Scream', to break away from his gory horror roots and direct a dark sci-fi thriller? You get test audiences who are so disappointed in the lack of violence in the movie that you then get him to do a bunch of reshoots that add in heaps of gory horror scenes! But what do you get when those new graphic reshoots are too graphic for censors, so you have to cut a bunch of it out? You get the movie 'Deadly Friend' from 1986!Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

1, 2, Freddy's coming for you… again! We're diving deep into the controversial 2010 remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for its (almost unbelievable) 15th anniversary! Was Samuel Bayer's vision truly a nightmare, or an unfairly maligned attempt to resurrect the horror icon created by Wes Craven? We dissect the script rewrites from Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, Jackie Earle Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and the performances of Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker, and Kellan Lutz. Joining in for this discussion after a long absence is our boy Donnie (@thedonnierequel on Instagram), who was one of the first guests of Back To The Blockbuster who helped turn it into what it is today. It's a dream having him back but is this remake a nightmare worthy of horror praise or is it a bad dream we'd all like to forget?

This week on Exploit It, we're creeping through the walls with The People Under the Stairs!

If our dreams aren't scary enough, Wes Craven decided to add the creepy Freddy Krueger Nursery Rhyme. And anyone who is familiar with the movie, especially the franchise, knows the infamous jump rope song sung by the children. 41 years later and the song still gives me goosebumps.I sat down with Adri-Anne and Coye, and we discussed how they got involved with the franchise and how they became the notorious “Jump Rope Girls” – despite how creepy the song is, it's still part of something that has grown on us since our childhood. Bonus Content: They sang the song for us in the interview… And sure as hell, it's still in my head. Definitely an ear worm that will probably remain until I am six feet under.Overall, a wonderful interview. If you would like to meet them at a convention near you, all you have to do is put in that request to the individuals who run/coordinate the conventions. Please do so and support these two wonderful women. You can also find them on Facebook and Instagram.

The movie “Cursed” is CURSED! Wes Craven. Kevin Williamson. The dream team from Scream…they made a werewolf movie! It became hideously transformed by studio meddling… But…is it also kind of…good?

Best known for his appearances on the television series Charmed, where he played Belthazor, a Grimlock leader, and Shax. He has also appeared in Men in Black II as Creepy, and The Hills Have Eyes 1 &2 – Plus, he served in the renowned 82nd Airborne Division as a paratrooper. HOOAH, AIRBORNE! Can tell that Michael is a very passionate and loving person and he still carries that passion with him wherever he goes. Just to sit and talk to him about his acting career is an absolute honor and pleasure – this guy has done it all. Another legendary actor dubbed as a ‘Chameleon' – being able to flawlessly deliver any role handed to him. Especially as “Super Freddy” – who we all know is an icon in the horror community and the A Nightmare on Elm Street Franchise. Overall, it was great speaking to him and getting to know him on a more personal level. I can tell that this guy is going places! Also, make sure to check out his wife's business, “Inseam Saver” which there is a quick promotional video at the end.

Send us a textIn the chaos of combat, what truly matters isn't the mission, but the harrowing moments that forever bind soldiers together. "Warfare," the latest from filmmaking duo Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza, strips away conventional war movie tropes to deliver something far more visceral and authentic.Based on Mendoza's actual experiences as a Navy SEAL during the Iraq War, this relentlessly tense 96-minute thriller drops viewers into the middle of a mission gone catastrophically wrong. When two platoons become trapped in a hostile urban environment, what follows is a masterclass in sustained tension and raw emotional devastation. Unlike traditional war films that provide character backgrounds or political context, "Warfare" deliberately avoids explaining why these soldiers are fighting—it simply shows, with unflinching clarity, what happens when young men face the brutal realities of combat.The film's exceptional sound design, crafted by Garland's longtime collaborator Glenn Freemantle, delivers an audio experience that shifts seamlessly between the chaotic cacophony of gunfire to the muffled, disorienting aftermath of blast trauma. Will Poulter leads a remarkable ensemble cast that includes Michael Galfianakis, Kit Connor, and Charles Melton, each delivering performances that capture not just the physical demands of warfare but the psychological toll of knowing death lurks around every corner.What makes "Warfare" particularly significant is how it represents Garland's artistic resurrection following his controversial 2022 film "Men." By partnering with Mendoza and focusing on craftsmanship rather than heavy-handed metaphors, Garland has rediscovered his filmmaking voice. This transformation mirrors other celebrated director comebacks we've witnessed over the years—from Wes Craven's "Scream" renaissance to Spike Lee's triumphant return with "BlacKkKlansman."Don't miss this opportunity to experience one of the most intense and authentic war films in recent memory. "Warfare" isn't just about combat—it's about bearing witness to the moments that forever change those who serve, and the brotherhood forged in circumstances most of us will never understand.Support the show

Brande - my 200th guest!It was wonderful to finally sit down with Brande and talk to her about her role in Wes Craven's “Dracula II: Ascension” and getting a better understanding of what it was like to play her role as ‘Tanya' and to gain insight what it was like to film the movie as well. We also dived in about her movie, “Wineville” which happens to be her directorial debut! I am certain that the movie is going to make an impact in the horror community. It's most certainly a great achievement for any actress to direct her first film, especially when you are as talented as she is. We also kind of went off topic and spoke about her role in “Starsky and Hutch” acting alongside Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson! She gave a little tidbit about a scene that was 100% improvised and the director kept that scene in the movie.Brande provides some resounding advice for those aspiring actors and actresses at the end of the interview, advice you might want to take her up on.You can catch Brande in the horror convention circuit but mostly in her most recent movie, “Wineville” which can be watch anywhere where movies are streamed. You can also follow her on Facebook and Instagram and show her your support!

Fright Night Flicks steps into the meta realm with Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994), where Freddy Krueger crosses over into the real world. We break down how Craven reinvents the franchise by merging fact and fiction, reuniting the original cast, and delivering a self-aware take on horror long before it was a trend. Join us as we explore this fresh spin on the Elm Street legacy and discover how “New Nightmare” paved the way for modern meta-horror!

Join Killah Keel,Wes Craven,and King Prince as they watch the 2009 remake of ''Friday the 13th'' (the killer cut).Grab your snacks,liquor,etc and press play!

The 80s have finally come to a close, and the decade's final moments did not disappoint.  Join me as I discuss the envelope pushing antics of the Conner family on Roseanne, the "they're not lesbians, I promise" relationship between Kate & Allie, and the trauma we all experienced watching Life Goes On.  I'll also crack wise about the comedy stylings of Wes Craven, stars yelling at audiences, and the decision making process that went into creating Small Wonder.  Cheers!

Meet Captain Content & Kevin in the pit again this week for a tooth-losing, hella good time! We're getting our aggressions out by revisiting the starting point of it all for Kevin.

Why was this movie made and who exactly was responsible?

On this edition of Parallax Views, Terrifier 2 & Terrifier 3's star final girl, Lauren LaVera, has a new fright flick, The Fetus, coming out on March 7th that'll combine comedy and body horror! And it'll also feature horror icon Bill Moseley, know for his roles as the brutal killer Otis Driftwood in Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses & The Devil's Rejects and the demented Choptop in Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, in a deliciously macabre role as a blind veteran with psychotic side. As you can probably surmise from the title, the movie will tackle pregnancy horror and creature feature thrills vis-à-vis a demonic baby. If you're a fan of 80s horrors like John Carpenter's The Thing or Wes Craven's A Nightmare on Elm Street, you'll be glad to know that the movie relies heavily on practical creature effects. It also promises to be a timely fright flick in light of the debates the rage on in American culture over abortion. Joining us to discuss the movie is the film's director, Joe Lam. We'll talk about the experience of working with Lauren LaVera and Bill Moseley, the long process of writing the movie, the influence of Orson Welles' Citizen Kane on Joe, the film's use of practical effects and the award-winning work of Alex Rojas on the creature effects, the decision to release The Fetus unrated and increasing obsolescence of the MPAA ratings system in the age of streaming, thoughts on Sean Baker's Oscar speech in which he made a call for defending independent film and movie theaters in an age where both are under threat, balancing comedy/humor and horror, the importance of story and character development in Joe Lam's approach to horror, and much, much more!

I won't say horror was dead in 1996 but it clearly had become stale and good scares with compelling stories were hard to come by. Blame it on Tipper Gore and the Parental Advisory movement or the fact that Hollywood was more interested in making a quick buck off aging franchises, horror in the mid 90s was just...meh. Thankfully some kid at a horror convention insulted Wes Craven by saying he wasn't scary anymore. Craven said, "Hold my beer, kid," and Scream was born. The horror community owes Scream a depth of gratitude that is unmeasured. Without Scream, I don't think horror would exist as we know it today. Anna is called the Scream Queen because she's got a great set of lungs. Anna is a bona fide Scream expert and she drives this conversation in the best direction. No matter how many times you've seen Scream, treat yourself and go watch it again before listening. You deserve it.

In this episode, Sidney wraps up Black History Month by discussing a Wes Craven classic, The People Under the Stairs (1991).

Before Freddy Krueger haunted dreams on Elm Street, a real-life nightmare plagued Hmong refugees—young men mysteriously dying in their sleep, a terrifying phenomenon that remains unexplained to this day.Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: Children dying in their sleep while having terrible nightmares. It's not just a movie plot from a Wes Craven film – it really happened, and inspired the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. (The Terrifying True Syndrome That Inspired A Nightmare on Elm Street) *** We're used to seeing someone on television or in movies die from a gunshot or stabbing, knowing they were just pretending – that the gun was using blanks, or the knife was using a retractable blade. But what we don't often hear are the times that those prop weapons end up killing someone for real. (Death By Movie Prop) *** How can a little girl disappear in a big crowd of people with no one seeing anything? Was it a case of stranger danger or did someone she know betray her trust? We'll look at the case of Beverly Rose Potts who went missing in 1951, never to be seen again. (Peril in the Park for Beverly Potts) *** Part medicine, part honey, part cannibalism… who or what was the mellified man? (The Mellified Man) *** They say that tragedy can change a person forever… and that couldn't be more true for one man who went from being considered lucky, to becoming deranged after a horrible accident, (The Hidden Wounds of Mr. Schultz) *** Famous last words. Humphrey Bogart said, “I should have never switched from Scotch to martinis.” Winston Churchill's last words were simply, “I'm bored with it all.” But sometimes what a person says on their deathbed can be shocking or outlandish – even if they aren't a celebrity. We'll look at a few unexpected deathbed moments.
