Horror 101 Podcast

When we talk about evil cars most horror fans will go right to Stephen King's Christine.  And why shouldn't they?  It was directed by John Carpenter and was a fantastic 80s feature but very few know that several years before Christine there was another killer vehicle movie.  This time we spotlight James Brolin as he's menaced by a huge black Lincoln intent on destroying the people in his dusty little town.  Fasten your seatbelts, folks and enjoy as we give The Horror 101 treatment to Elliot Silverstein's The Car from 1977.Show Highlights:01:00 Prelude to Terror...05:45  Choosing The Car...08:30  Calling Horky...13:45  The Cyclists...16:10  Waking up to Teacher...18:30  Death of the French Horn...24:50  Roll over Sheriff...28:45  Parade Panic...32:30  Failed Pursuits...39:40  Living Room Massacre...43:40  Confrontation in The Garage...46:00  Final Confrontation...51:45  Scoring The Film...59:00 Final Thoughts and Conclusion.  

Welcome back to the Horror 101 podcast and back to the 70s!  If the name Vincent Price somehow doesn't ring a Bell then you've come to the right place.  For years The World Famous Brian Stewart has been petitioning the crew to cover this film.  After 15 years, its finally time.  This early 70s film was obscured by a little movie called The Exorcist which was released the same year.  Its no wonder many people forget this even exists.  You don't watch a Vincent Price film to be scared or grossed out.  You go for him.  The man commanded horror screens for decades and we hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of Douglas Hickox's Theater of Blood.Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror06:20  Feather in Brian's Hat...11:15  The Ides of March17:10  The Horses' Tail...23:05  Trojan Horse...28:05  A Pound of Flesh...35:45  The Wine Cellar...38:10  Swords and Trampolines...45:20  Joan of Arc...49:05  Two Pies...53:35  The Awards Presentation...61:07  Scoring the Film...68:15  Conclusion!  Thanks for Listening!

Greetings Horror Fans!  After breaking box office records and absolutely killing the internet we thought it best to strike another brand new iron while it was hot.  Nefarious Paul B had already watched this twice and was excited for a 3rd viewing so couldn't ignore that kind of praise.  We hope you all enjoy as we give the Horror 101 treatment to Curry Barker's Obsession.  Show highlights:01:00 Prelude to Terror03:45  Introducing Obsession...11:40  Trial Run...13:35  Finding Sandy...15:25  One Wish Willow...16:50  Now's The Time...18:00 You Only Get One Wish...22:20  Date Night...27:15  I Packed You a Lunch...31:35  Calling the Toll-Free Number...35:50  I Can't Be Nikki...39:00  3:30 Text Message...47:25  All Comes To An End...52:50  Scoring the Film...60:00  Conclusion!  Thanks for Listening!!!

After a slew of shows on old 70s horrors our audience may have missed my crew agreed to hit something new from this year.   None of us have seen this film or any of the director's other works yet so we're going in blind this time.  We hope you enjoy the Horror 101 treatment of Damian McCarthy 's Hokum. Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror04:24  Selecting Hokum...10:25  It passed the 1 Drink Test...14:00  Arriving at Bilberry Woods Hotel...18:00  Spreading the ashes...24:00  Fiona is missing...28:00  Alone...31:30  Found out...36:40  The Twisted Children's Show...39:30  "I think there's someone down here..."43:30  Jerry Returns...49:20  Mal Penance...57:25  Scoring the Film...63:40  Conclusion!  Thanks for listening!

The podcast is continuing with our obscure 70s features. We had a good time with Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things last time we recorded.  We've already covered Black Christmas and Deranged by the same film makers but there's another film from 1974, directed by Bob Clark and written by Alan Ormsby that is probably their least known work.  With makeup effects by Tom Savini!  We hope you enjoy our Horror 101 treatment of Dead of Night, AKA Deathdream.Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror04:30  Choosing tonight's film...10:30  Florida or Vietnam?12:20  The Worst News...16:00  Coming Home...19:40  Something is Different...22:20  The Brutal End of Butch28:00  Fatal Physical...32:05  Undead Double Date...40:30  Face me, Andy...42:45  Fleeing to Resting Place...46:15  Anti-War Sentiments...49:20  Scoring the Film...58:05  Conclusion!  Thanks for Listening!
