ReplyDeleteI'm lovin' this episode, and I'm so impressed that GregaMortis braved "The Last Descent." ha ha I know exactly what you mean, Greg. It is a rough film, and it has haunted me ever since I first saw it, so I figured I should pass it along since misery loves company. : ) Anyway, thanks for checking it out, and thanks for playing my voicemail! You guys are the best! Happy Michael Myers Day! -Jay of the Dead
Thank You Jay for recommending The Last Decent. As hard of a movie it is to watch, it was really touching. I am with you in that I will not be able to watch again due to how it touched me. Glad you are enjoying this episode. We had such a great time recording for sure.
DeleteLoving the episode, guys! I wanted to share a movie with you guys that impacted me greatly me as a kid. It’s 1978’s “The Legacy”. I remember my dad taking me to see this movie when I was 6 years-old (a shout out to everyone born in ‘72!). It stars Sam Elliot Katharine Ross, and even The Who’s Roger Daltrey. It was directed by Richard Marquand, who later went on to “Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi”. It’s not as much of a horror movie as it is a murder mystery, but there are several scenes that definitely left an indelible impression on me as little a kid. Without giving any spoilers, there are several scenes involving an indoor pool, a chicken bone, a hospital gurney, and an inescapable road that have stuck with me to this day. I think it’s one of those movies that never got much love when it was released and was quickly forgotten. I’ve never heard anyone cover it on any podcast but I think it’s worth a rainy day watch. Keep up the great work guys! Allan Rutledge
ReplyDeleteHello Allan, thank you so much for commenting. I am thankful you are listening and enjoying. Hell yes to 1972, year I was born!!! I actually have seen The Legacy and it is a disturbing film. It really does need more attention. I really appreciate you sharing your story. Help Keep Horror Alive
DeleteExcellent episode, guys. Loving the campfire tales. I realize this is a bit late, but I'm still catching up. Lol.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to throw my hat in the ring regarding A Serbian Film. While it is truly repugnant and vile and any other word you can think of to describe a gross and offensive film, I have to agree with Bill that it is excellently shot and well-made. I had the benefit of seeing it at Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal in 2010, with the filmmakers in attendance for a Q&A, which went a long way toward explaining - and in some odd way, justifying - the atrocities seen in the film. If you haven't seen the film yet or if you have the stomach to revisit it, I would suggest reading my review (https://www.ioncinema.com/news/uncategorized/fantasia-2010-srdjan-spasojevics-a-serbian-film) and watching the Q&A that I filmed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwWxClPdd9w) after the screening to perhaps add a little perspective.
Hello Jason, Thank You for listening and for your comment. You are never to late and I am just so excited you are listening. I will check out your review for sure and the QA. It would take a lot to gave me revisit it but am willing to give it a go if you think it is worth it. Once again thank you for commenting and for listening to the show.
