Ep- 351: The Midnight Hour.

It's Halloween and your friends at Forever Midnight have some treats for ya! This year the crew chose at Jef's suggestion the made for TV movie from 1985 "The Midnight Hour"! There is a very good chance lots of you folks know this one and maybe even saw it when it aired way back when. It is chock full of all kinds of now known folks and some now unknown folks that were more well known in the 70's and 80's hahah even Dom DeLuise's little shit of a kid is stinking this one up. If you have not seen this one it's up on Youtube and you can even get DVD's of it! It has lots of Halloween vibes so it's a good one to play on All Hallow's Eve! Josh, Jef and Brian get into a lengthy discussion about candy and snack perfectly on theme for the holiday but if you wanna go straight to the movie talk, start around the 17 minute mark. For you Forever Midnight Fiends the crew also just dropped a brand new Halloween episode on Patreon talking about Haunt from 2019!! So get your candy sack filled with some FM goodies! Have a safe and Happy Halloween! 

In this episode it was Jef's turn to pick a movie for the crew to watch and chat about, Brian and Josh figured after their stinky picks recently Jef was going to elevate the situation and pick a good movie. Well Jef decided it was only fair to stoop to their level and dig into the dumpster for a nice ripe one. Of course he would never just do any old thing, he will always make sure there are at the very least good actors attached to his pick. He was not wrong, he chose 1995's "Hideaway" starring Jeff Goldblum, Alicia Silverstone, Jeremy Sisto, Rae Dawn Chong and Alfred Molina! A whole stack of somebodies! Alas even with all that star power, Hideaway might be best appreciated by those that saw it when it came out, or  who knows maybe it is your future favorite movie? Either way The FM3 dig into it and come out the other side forever touched by Heaven and Hell, and revived and ready for the next episode. So win win? Enjoy!

In this episode it was Josh's turn to pick a movie for the guys to watch and chat about. He got so excited that he completely forgot about the ban on Charles Band movies that the FM3 made a blood oath on just mere episodes ago. But instead of choosing something else Brian, Jef and Josh dive dick first into the deep dark dumpster that holds The Charles Band Archives and resurfaced with "The Dungeonmaster" from 1984. Listeners you too can play at home in the Chuck Band Dumpster and watch Richard Moll and the Fondacaro brothers get horribly underused and at the same time see some of John Carl Buechler's Troll and Ghoulies puppet rejects, and really what more could you ask from a "horror" movie?

In this episode, the reigns are given to Brian to steer the guys at a flick to chat about. After very very little thought he decided to finally unleash the surreal nightmare that is the one and only "Skinned Deep" starring Warwick Davis!! Knowing full well that Jef and Josh would hate this movie, he waited until the perfect moment, and that perfect moment is now and why is the perfect moment now you might ask? The answer is that it was the first movie to pop into his little pea brain and now everyone gets to experience this wild ass movie. He says, you are welcome! Now enjoy the show! 

In this episode the FM3 pay respects to the one and only lying ass Warren's with a little chat about the newest installment in the Conjuring universe "Last Rites". It's that time of year again when Brian and Josh can't remember if it is a Conjuring movie or a Insidious movie and tbh do they even care? At this point, our brave heroes feel like they are living in a groundhog's day of endless ghost cliches with no end in sight. Luckily this is the last one...right? 

In this episode one of the FM3's Patreon Top Dawgs picked a movie that the guys were very skeptical about and never imagined watching it. Having heard the name and seen the VHS artwork Jef, Josh and Brian could only imagine that this flick was nothing more than a  janky music video for Boris Pickett & The Crypt Kicker 5's punishing jam "The Monster Mash".  Thank goodness it wasn't and because It is actually a pretty fun horror anthology with some cool musical numbers. Plus you get a monster sized dose of Vincent Price and John Carradine as the book ends of each of the stories and boy oh boy they are hamming it up and down. The best part is that Boris Pickett was nowhere to be found and for the Forever Midnight boys that meant this flick might not stink to high heavens like the Wolfman's nards or the Crypt Kickers crypt knickers. 

In this episode, one of the Forever Midnight's Patreon Top Dawgs picked a movie for the FM3 to chat about and even sent a gift across the pond. Mysteriously, this gift just happened to arrive the very day the guys were sitting down to record his special episode!! Some might call that a coincidence, but Jef, Josh and Brian call it a coinkydink or more possibly good old fashioned stalking…hmmm? How did he know when the guys were recording? How did he know they like gifts? How did he know where to send them gifts? Do you know where to send them gifts?    Well, regardless of the impending restraining order against the crew's favorite Brit-Ish Cabbie, the guys got to check off their watch list for another teen slasher flick from the 80's!  The one and only Slaughter High!! So grab a seat, cause this is a fun episode. Remember folks that if you prank, torture and disfigure a person, they will probably totally forgive and forget and you will get to live a long guilt free life!   Just remember to always yell "April Fool's Day!" so you can't get in trouble!!  Hooray!!

In this episode, the FM3 get to check out the much anticipated and mysterious horror flick "Weapons" by the director of 2022's "Barbarian", Mr. Zach Cregger. The boys were excited by how little they all collectively knew about this one, but the small teasers had them baited and ready to run (hands down) to the theater as soon as they could! As usual, spoilers lie ahead folks. Jef, Josh and Brian highly recommend you check out this one with your creepy Aunt while it's still on the big screen! Enjoy!  

In this week's episode, Jef, Josh and Brian are so happy to be back at the movie theater watching a brand new horror flick! The FM3 sit down for Michael Shanks "Together" starring Alison Brie and her real life husband Dave Franco. Hopes were high and little was known about this project for The Forever Midnight Crew. The convo after viewing got a little hot in a few spots, tempers were raging and the lack of dong shots dominated some of the chat but that's how it goes when talking about Body Horror in a post The Substance world.  (There was an audio issue in this ep with one of the mics, apologies). Thank you for listening!
