This week, we talk about #RunMovie , a #psychological #horror #thriller #film . The film stars #KieraAllen as disabled teenager Chloe Sherman, who begins to suspect that her mother, Diane ( #SarahPaulson ), has been keeping a dark secret about her upbringing. Last week, we talked about #GypsyRoseBlanchard, convicted of second-degree murder in #Missouri for the death of her mother, #DeeDeeBlanchard . She was sentenced to ten years in prison. She was #paroled after eight years, at the end of December 2023. Given the sensational aspects of Gypsy's childhood, she gained widespread media attention. She has been featured on interviews on a variety of TV shows, and other programs have been based on her story.

The film stars #ValKilmer , #KateBosworth , #DylanMcDermott , #CarrieFisher , #LisaKudrow , #JoshLucas , #ChristinaApplegate , #TimBlakeNelson , and #JaneaneGarofalo . Kilmer plays the role of #JohnHolmes , a famous pornographic film star and suspected accomplice in four grisly #murders committed in a house at #8763WonderlandAvenue , in the #LaurelCanyon section of #LosAngeles . The film uses a nonlinear #Rashomon -style #narrative structure to present conflicting accounts of the murders from differing perspectives. Last week, we talked about #TheWonderlandmurders , also known as the #FourontheFloorMurders or the #LaurelCanyonMurders , are four #unsolvedmurders that occurred in #LosAngeles on July 1, 1981. It is assumed that five people were targeted to be killed in the known drug house of the #WonderlandGang , three of whom— #RonLaunius , #BillyDeverell , and #JoyMiller —were present. Launius, Deverell, and Miller, along with the girlfriend of an accomplice, #BarbaraRichardson , died from extensive #bluntforcetrauma injuries. Only Launius' wife Susan survived the attack, allegedly masterminded by organized crime figure and nightclub owner #EddieNash . Nash, his henchman #GregoryDiles , and porn actor #JohnHolmes were at various times arrested, tried, and acquitted for their involvement in the murders.

This week, we talk about the #triller #movie #AKillerNextDoor from #2020 about a young girl begins to suspect that her neighbor on a quiet suburban street is fugitive family killer John List. Last week, we talked about #JohnList , an #American #massmurderer . On November 9, 1971, he killed his wife, mother, and three children at their home in #WestfieldNewJersey , and then #disappeared . He had planned the murders so meticulously that nearly a month passed before anyone suspected that anything was amiss. List assumed a #newidentity , #remarried , and eluded justice for nearly 18 years. He was finally apprehended in Virginia on June 1, 1989, after the story of his murders was broadcast on the television program #AmericasMostWanted .

This week, we talk about #TheOnionField is a 1979 #American #neonoir crime drama film directed by #HaroldBecker . The film stars #JohnSavage , #JamesWoods and #FranklynSeales , as well as #TedDanson in his film debut. Woods' performance as #GregPowell was the film's most widely praised element, earning him a #KansasCityFilmCritics #CircleAward and his first #GoldenGlobe nomination. Last week, we talked about the #onionfieldmurders . On the night of March 9, 1963, #LAPD officers #IanCampbell (age 31) and #KarlHettinger (age 28) were riding in an #unmarkedpolicecar. They pulled over a #1946Fordcoupe containing two #suspicious -looking men at the corner of #CarlosAvenue and #GowerStreet in #Hollywood . The two men, #GregoryUlasPowell (age 30) and #JimmyLeeSmith (a.k.a. " #JimmyYoungblood ", age 32), had recently committed a string of robberies, and "each had a pistol tucked into his trousers".

Guest: Danny Pina This week, we talk about #ArsenicandOldLace , a 1944 #American #screwball #mystery #darkcomedy #film directed by #FrankCapra and starring #CaryGrant . On the Broadway stage, #BorisKarloff played #JonathanBrewster , who is said to "look like #BorisKarloff ". According to #TurnerClassicMovies , Karloff remained in the play to appease the producers, who were afraid of what stripping the play of all its primary cast would do to ticket sales. #JosephineHull and #JeanAdair portray the Brewster sisters, Abby and Martha, respectively. Last week, we talked about #AmyArcherGilligan, a #nursinghome proprietor and #serialkiller from #WindsorConnecticut . She #murdered at least five people by #poisoning them. One of her victims was her second husband, Michael Gilligan; the others were residents of her nursing home. It is possible that Archer-Gilligan was involved in more deaths. The authorities counted 48 deaths in her nursing home, the "Archer Home for the Elderly and Infirm."
