Set your podcast to “spooky” because the Mikes are doing an entire month of horror themed episodes!

In this episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler sink their teeth into the 1987 neo-noir, western, vampire flick, Near Dark, starring Adrian Pasdar, Lance Henriksen, and Bill Paxton. Written and directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Our frightfully insightful co-hosts dissects the films impact on vampire films of today, character motivations and how much control a director may give their actors to shape their characters. They Mikes also discuss how the cinematography and score help to set a very distinct style for the film.

So grab your Necronomicon and a cup of Type 0+, please notice there are no exits, and no running from….Forgotten Horror!!!

Forgotten Horror continues as the Mikes ignore all of Sam Jacksons warnings and check themselves into the 2007 film, 1408, starring John Cusack and one evil "freaking" room.

The Mikes discuss the use of lighting and sets to bring the film to life and Field throws out some fun hidden easter eggs in the movie. Butler talks about how the ending to the director's cut version of the film alters its theme and perhaps ruins the development and journey of its one and only protagonist.

So grab your silver bullets and wooden stakes, please notice the zombies blocking the front and rear of the auditorium, and strap in for Forgotten Horror.

Welcome to the third entry of this year’s Forgotten Horror, where the Mikes tackle the scariest type of film there is…a kids’ film!!!

Mike Field and Mike Butler deconstruct (get it?!) the 2006 animated film, Monster House, directed by Gil Kenan and produced by Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg. They’ll go over the role of adults within this film, the unique use of motion capture, and discuss the change in parents’ attitude toward presenting children with content they might find scary.

Listeners beware!!! The scariest thing in this podcast will be the amount of wisdom Mike Field attempts to extoll upon you!!!

So grab some brains and a cup of witches brew, please notice the spiders hanging at the front and rear of the mausoleum, and prepare your soul for Forgotten Horror!!!
