Ep -338: The Prey (1983).

In this episode, Brian thought it would be fun to hike out into the wilderness for some summer slasher action and picked "The Prey" from 1983. Slashering was slightly highlighted in this budget flick but not as much as all the crazy critters thrown in to pad the run time. This movie is part Temu Friday the 13th, part Mutual Of Omaha's Wild Kingdom with just a tiny sprinkle of the Addams Family.  The perfect recipe to leave you plopped down criss cross applesauce right in the campfire! Streaming now on TUBI!

In this episode the FM3 head to Texarkana to watch and chat about 2014's "The Town That Dreaded Sundown". This flick was served up by one of Forever Midnight's beloved Top Dawg Patrons over on Patreon. Thankfully they were forced to check it out which was just the push they needed! Jef, Josh and Brian had half expected another Scream rip-off, so they had somewhat avoided it  for years but were all curious about this requel and the real life murders that inspired the original in 1976. So prepare yourself to be transported to a land beyond time, a land of moonlight murders and trombones that have the taste for human blood!!  Join us over on Patreon at Patreon.com/forevermidnight for over 80 exclusive episodes!

In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian do the unthinkable, the unfathomable...they decided to watch another Dracula movie! Yes, you read that correctly and yes, right after just tackling Full Moon's Subspecies on their Patreon!!! This time around these brave podcasters dipped into the drug blood and finally watched Frank Langella's Dracula from 1979. The FM3 have long been curious about the fabled "Disco Dracula" only to learn the cold hard undead truth. So grab your garlic and find a nice comfy seat as Forever Midnight dig into what some say is maybe the most seductive, charming and sinister Count Dracula.   

In this episode, Jef, Josh and Brian are back at the movie theater to check out the newest installment of the 28 Days Later franchise with Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later. After seeing the stellar trailer they released for this film, The FM3 were super excited to grab some popcorn and see what the rage virus has been doing and stewing for the last 28 years? Turns out folks are still raging, and some are raging out in very big ways, an alternate title could be 28 Inches Later. Go see it today! 

It's that time of year again, June baby!! One of Forever Midnight's favorite friends and Top Dawg Patrons is having a Birthday this month and asked if instead of choosing a movie if he could have Jef, Josh and Brian chat about a couple of Tales From The Crypt episodes. The FM3 couldn't be happier than to jump back into the tight dank coffin with the Crypt Keeper himself and dust off some of these fun tales of terror! So if you listeners wanna play along at home the episodes discussed in this podcast are: Season 4 - Episode 6 = "What's Cookin?" & Season 2 - Episode 9 = "Four sided Triangle"! These episodes are available on Youtube for free and you should definitely watch them before you listen, unless you know them by heart like the one and only Sylar Bedoya, then Just sit back and enjoy!! Happy Birthday Sylar and thank you for the years and years of support and love! 

In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian head to the theater to check out the newest fright fest from the guys that made you shit your diaper with 2022’s "Talk To Me", The Philippou brothers! The FM3 all had very physical and emotional reactions to "Bring Her Back" and as the credits rolled they all realized how tense and rowdy that journey was but also recognized that these guys are truly pushing horror and making folks scared again. Which is cool and horrible at the same time!  Sit back and listen as the Forever Midnight crew try to recover from this brilliant and rough master work of horror.  

This week Jef decided enough was enough so he picked a good movie for a change of scenery. What "good" movie do you ask? One right in Jef's sweet spot, none other than 1990's "MISERY"!  Josh and Brian were caught off guard by this "good" movie pick thrown into the mix. They were not quite sure if they were bummed or excited to watch James Caan stink up a bed for 2 hours, but the one thing they did know is this would not be a difficult film to watch this week and talk about. Sure they may have had their reasons for the lackluster reception to Jef's pick, but they knew in their hearts this would be a nice break from the dog shit they usually watch...and LOVE. Plus they knew the listener's would probably hoist Jef upon their shoulders and hail him as their saviour....at least for this week. 

In this episode it is Brian's week to choose a movie and he decides to choose one that has been haunting him for some time, even though he has never seen it! Something caught his eye and sat in the back of his head until this week when he finally made Jef and Josh watch the 1981 zombie invasion film "Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror"! At first glance it seemed to be just another run of the mill Italian zombie flick with slow ass walking dead, cheap zombie makeups and a plot that is buried deeper than most of the zombies in the film, but the casting of a single man sets this movie apart from almost all other italian zombie movies. You gotta watch it! 

The FM3 have been dealing with being sick and injured this past week so they decided to unleash an episode recorded in 2021 from the Patreon Exclusive Episode Archive (There are over 80 episodes on our Patreon by the way..wink wink) The film in question is James Gunn's 2006 bump & lump fest "Slither"! This is a fun episode because the guys actually like this movie so it's jumps all over the place, touching and stroking all the space worms and topics. Plus there is a conversation at the very end of the episode that shows The Forever Midnight crew is truly touched with the gift of predicting the future, in this case the future of James Gunn's film projects. Enjoy! 

In this episode one of Forever Midnight 's Top Dawgs from Patreon picked a little unsung horror flick from 2001 called "Session 9".  This is one of those rare occasions when a film has a shoestring budget and a simple premise but is done well and you end up with a huge abandoned asylum filled with dread, perfect for getting creeped out while watching with headphones in the dark. THe FM3 were very excited to finally chat about this one and try to uncover what REALLY happened to the poor characters. For you loyal listeners this movie was even on Josh's Top 20 list of the Past 20 episode ! (#133 that was released on January 6th, 2020) Sit back and listen to the crew chip away at the toxic tiles of this spooky mind melter!
