Each of the members of the Grue-Crew for this episode viewed Trilogy of Terror during its television premiere in 1975 and it made an indelible mark on each of their psyches. Of course, that mark, the one that created nightmares and lost sleep, is left by the final segment in which the Zuni doll runs amok. The Grue-Crew also has a heightened appreciation for Karen Black's acting abilities after rewatching the film and her four performances therein. They also all agree that the terror in the final segment is just as strong and effective as it was in 1975. If you haven't seen Dan Curtis' Trilogy of Terror recently, you owe yourself a rewatch. It's that good. At least, the Zuni-warrior doll piece is that good!

"It is my considered opinion that rat No. 4 is sitting inside that cat." Ha! The jokes on you, Jennings! It's actually in your pocket. Join this episode's Grue Crew - Chad Hunt Whitney Collazo, Joseph Perry, and Jeff Mohr - as they take a trip to Marineland to see the Gill-Man in his second theatrical outing, Revenge of the Creature (1955).

Decades of Horror: The Classic Era Episode 68 – Revenge of the Creature (1955)

The Creature from the Black Lagoon has been captured by scientists and transported to an aquarium in south Florida. Once there, he becomes attracted to lovely female scientist Helen Dobson and manages to escape and kidnap her, and heads to Jacksonville, with her real-life love in pursuit.

IMDb

• Director: Jack Arnold
• Writers: Martin Berkeley (screenplay), William Alland (story)
• CAST:
  • John Agar as Prof. Clete Ferguson
  • Lori Nelson as Helen Dobson
  • John Bromfield as Joe Hayes

Universal International Pictures followed up the success of Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) the following year with Revenge of the Creature, another 3-D entry to the Univeral Horror catalog. Chad Hunt continues his love for the Gill-man, first revealed in episode 3 of Decades of Horror: The Classic Era. Your loyal Grue-Crew note the differences between this film and its predecessor, both in the pacing of the story and in the Florida setting. They are also impressed by the performance turned in by Lori Nelson as scientist Helen Dobson. Of course, Clint Eastwood also comes up in conversation. They all recommend Revenge of the Creature despite its marked departure from the feel and tone of the first film in the series.

Longtime listeners may be sensing a bit of déjà vu with this episode. Creepshow was already discussed by Doc Rotten, Thomas Mariani, Christopher G. Mohr and Dave Dreher on episode 94 in October 2016. The current Decades of Horror 1980s Grue-Crew, however, didn't want to be left out and because this fall saw the premiere of Creepshow the TV series on the Shudder streaming service, they thought it was the perfect time for another 1980s double tap.

When a movie is directed by George A. Romero with special makeup effects by Tom Savini; is written by Stephen King; features a comic book with cover art by Jack Kamen and interior art by Berni Wrightson; and a cast that includes Ed Harris, Leslie Nielsen, Ted Danson, Hal Holbrook, Adrienne Barbeau, Fritz Weaver, and E. G. Marshall; do you need to know anything else? Neither did the Decades of Horror 1980s Grue-Crew.

Gruesome Magazine's Decades of Horror 1980s is part of the Decades of Horror 3-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1970s. For their historic episode 150, the 80s Grue-Crew will Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988).

"The saliva is very contagious. It dribbles into open wounds and cuts, and causes immediate infection. So don't let anybody bite you." That sounds like universally good advice! Join your faithful Grue Crew - Doc Rotten, Chad Hunt, Bill Mulligan, and Jeff Mohr - as they try to figure out the nature of the body horror David Cronenberg dreamt up in Rabid (1977)!

Decades of Horror 1970s Episode 107 – Rabid (1977)

A young woman develops a taste for human blood after experimental plastic surgery, and her victims turn into blood-thirsty zombies, leading into a city-wide epidemic.

- IMDb

• Writer/Director: David Cronenberg
• Executive producer: Ivan Reitman
• Featured Cast
  • Marilyn Chambers as Rose
  • Frank Moore as Hart Read
  • Joe Silver as Murray Cypher
  • Howard Ryshpan as Dan Keloid
  • Patricia Gage as Roxanne Keloid
  • Susan Roman as Mindy Kent
  • J. Roger Periard as Lloyd Walsh
  • Lynne Deragon as Nurse Louise
  • Terry Schonblum as Judy Glasberg
  • Victor Désy as Claude LaPointe

As the entire Gruesome Nation already knows, the Soska sisters' version of Rabid is scheduled for release on December 13, 2019. With that in mind, your Decades of Horror 1970s Grue-Crew decided the time was right for them to cover Cronenberg's original version of Rabid, released in 1977.

Jeff is completely unaware that he manages to confuse Ivory Soap (9944/100% pure) with Ivory Snow, "the safest possible soap for diapers and baby clothes" that featured Marilyn Chambers on the box just prior to her career as a pornographic film actress. In his defense, they are both made by Proctor and Gamble and come from the same "Ivory" line of products. Besides that, he loves Cronenberg's second feature film and finds the "science" behind Rose's condition fascinating.

The entire Grue-Crew first caught Rabid (1977) on an early-80s video store rental, ... except for Doc. He broke his Rabid cherry with a big-screen viewing, is thrilled with the results, and is impressed by Chambers' acting in the film. Bill identifies Rabid, the second of Cronenberg's films, as a sign of obvious growth and of bigger things to come. Chad talks about some of Cronenberg's later films and the entire Grue-Crew review Ivan Reitman's body of work as a producer.

Rabid (1977) receives a unanimous recommendation from the 70s Grue-Crew and each of them is also looking forward to the release of the Soska sisters' remake! At this writing, Rabid (1977) is available for streaming on Shudder and on Blu ray from Scream Factory. So listen to the podcast, watch Cronenberg's original, then go see the Soska sisters' remake. It'll be fun. You know it will!

Gruesome Magazine's Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror 3-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s. In three weeks, the next episode in their very flexible schedule will be Dan Curtis' Trilogy of Terror (1975) starring Karen Black.
