This week on the Video Junkyard Podcast, we take a look at the 1988 supernatural thriller "The Serpent and the Rainbow" directed by Wed Craven. Starring Bill Pullman, Cathy Tyson, Zakes Mokae, and Paul Winfield, the film tells the (supposedly based on a) true story of an anthropologist's exploration into the supernatural and corrupt underworld of Hatia's "voodoo" practices in hopes of producing live-saving medicines. While most know of Wes Craven for his Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream franchises, this entry is a little different than many other Craven pieces. Check out the latest episode of the Video Junkyard Podcast to find out if "Serpent and the Rainbow" still has any life, or if it should stay in the graveyard.

Vampire in Brooklyn is a 1995 American vampire black comedy film directed by Wes Craven. It stars Eddie Murphy, who produced and wrote with his brothers Vernon Lynch and Charles Q. Murphy. The film co-stars Angela Bassett, Allen Payne, Kadeem Hardison, John Witherspoon, Zakes Mokae, and Joanna Cassidy. Murphy also plays an alcoholic preacher, Pauly, and a foul-mouthed Italian-American mobster, Guido, respectively. Vampire in Brooklyn was the final film produced under Eddie Murphy's exclusive contract with Paramount Pictures, which began with 48 Hrs. (1982) and included the Beverly Hills Cop franchise (1984–1994). Vampire in Brooklyn was released theatrically in the United States on October 27, 1995. It received mostly negative reviews from critics and failed to meet the studio's expectations, as it was unsuccessful at the box office. Despite this, Vampire In Brooklyn has become regarded as a cult classic and has been subject to critical re-evaluation, especially towards Craven's direction, Murphy and Bassett's performances and chemistry and the humor.

Lo que se pretendía con esta medida era mantener el virus en secreto y, al mismo tiempo, impedir que se propagase. Lo que no estaba previsto era que un pequeño mono, portador del peligroso virus, viajara en un barco desde el Zaire a EE.UU. El pánico se desata cuando se descubre que todos los que que han estado en contacto con el simio empiezan a mostrar los primeros síntomas de la enfermedad.
