Halloween(s)

Tonight, we cover two movies in one! We're talking about the Crazies, and also: THE CRAZIES!  In 1973, George Romero released his vision of a military incident that affects a town.  In 2010, Breck Eisner (son of Michael Eisner, Disney CEO) made a remake with Romero serving as executive producer. This is the pinnacle of movie "What Ifs" - what if a low budget cult classic could have had more money, better special effects, and a more talented cast? Can it still hold up? 

We return to our horror movie month marathon just as George Romero returns to his "... of the Dead" movies with his 2005 installment, "Land of the Dead!" Starring Dennis Hopper, John Leguizamo, Simon Baker, and Asia Argento, Land of the Dead revisits the world of the living dead, where the last humans live in a walled city to protect themselves as they come to grips with the situation.

We're back with our 583rd Horror Movie Month!  This time we're mixing up the approach and covering a wide range of scary movies for this October; we hope you enjoy the first in this series: The Void (2016)! This Canadian horror movie caught everyone by surprise at Fantastic Fest 2015, flying in so far under the radar it barely qualifies for this metaphor. Despite the low budget, the film demonstrates incredible technical ability and thifty ingenuity. We cover literally every single amount of trivia we could find without making anything up!

2022 was a make or break year for movies. Coming out of the pandemic, theaters weren't sure they were going to make it. Jordan Peele to the rescue - writing and directing Nope, starring Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, and Brandon Perea and single-handedly delivering audiences something truly special. At least, that's what we thought. Clay was not so sure. Tune in for a special Halloween Eve release of NOPE.

X premiered in 2022 to high praise from Critic and Audiences alike. Who knew there are that many people that see the elderly as villains? Anyways, it featured a number of up-and-comers, came-and-wenters, and a couple of hey-i-know-that-guys: Mia Goth, Brittany Snow, Jenna Ortega and Martin Henderson, not to mention Kid Cudi as "Jackson Hole!" Surely, this will be our cleanest, most family friendly episode yet.
