Join Shawn, Derrick, and Chris as they cover the seminal 80s film ‘Alone In the Dark’, completely dissect a ‘Friday the 13th’ knockoff titled ‘Humongous’, read listener emails, and announce the ‘Bloody Moon’ “Mystery Prize” winner.
Mat rejoins Shawn and Chris for reviews on Bloody Moon and Anguish, listener emails, upcoming shows, and the effect of horror films on young people. Derrick is on vacation and will return next week.
This week, we take a look at the weird slasher/action hybrid Truth or Dare?: A Critical Madness and feature an interview with director Tim Ritter. The film is certifiably bizarre and worth a look for any diehard slasher fan.
The flick is about a dude named Mike who finds his wife screwing his best friend when he arrives home from work early. That causes him to snap. He plays a psychotic game of Truth or Dare with an imaginary hitchhiker with giant breasts causing him to cut out his tongue. He heads to a mental institution only to be let out for good behavior. He then dons a copper mask and goes on a killing spree. Like I said, it’s bizarre.
The Blackfoot Lounge is finally here! The newest podcast to join the Dead Lantern banner, BL is a show devoted to discussing the most obscure and seemingly inconsequential 80′s slashers. Join us, won’t you?
Stick around after our discussion of the film to listen to a fascinating and story laden interview with star and frequent Don Jones collaborator Gary Kent!
