Documenteers: The Documentary Podcast

We’re returning for our penultimate Hammer Films Dracula feature this month and we aren’t with Terence Fisher this week, instead we check out an early director work by the acclaimed cinematogrpaher, Freddie Francis. Last we saw Dracula, his sad-ass fell into some ice. How does he get out of that pickle? Well, a sadder-ass priest slips on some rocks right outside of the castle and bleeds into cracks in the ice which happens to be right over Dracula’s mouth. That’s more than enough to bring our most tragic fuckboy back into the fold. We’re going on about Hammer Film’s third Christopher Lee Dracula portrayal in 1968’s “DRACULA HAS RISEN FROM THE GRAVE”. Dracula is definitely looking for love and he’s found the right girl, but he will have to contend with her Monsignor Uncle and her hunky atheist boyfriend. Will Atheist Paul’s experience in dealing with Dracula lead him to to understand that a lifetime of guilt and self loathing is the way to go? Dracula actually might be Catholic if you think about it. He fears the faith just as those within it do.

We just can’t get enough Christopher Lee this month so let’s make it five and check out his “Austin Powers” look. You’re the most catholic Scottish cop on the planet. You’re literally abstaining sex until marriage like a madman. You get a letter telling you that a girl has been missing on a place called Summerisle. You go there alone. People are fucking out on their lawns. Children are laughing at you. The old timers are lying to you. The lord of the place has more drip than you. Is this a murder mystery or are you a beetle on a string tied to a nail? We’re capping this week’s HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST with Robin Hardy’s 1973 cult creeper “The Wicker Man” starring Edward Woodward, Christopher Lee and Britt Ekland. If they just chilled out with the sacrifices then I would totally join this cult. Britt Ekland would not have had to sing and slap the walls for very long at all. I’m lonely.

HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST will end up being discussions of 27 different movies when it’s all said and done. Frankly, we’re already tired and we’re gonna lie down and go to sleep. Let the little fibers of the special plant touch our skin. We will dry up into husks and come back good and wet as fresh pod people. Ready to continue the show in a much more dead-eyed fashion. We pick Podworld. Remember when people got sad that they couldn’t live in Avatar world? Well, we’re like that but with Podworld. Get into Podworld, man. We’re talking about Philip Kaufman’s excellent remake of a horror classic from 1978, “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” starring Donny Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Lenny Nimoy and Jeffy Goldblum.

Second week into HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST and you might notice that our midweek theme is involving things from beyond the sky. Lethal space invaders that might want to suck your blood out with a one of those whacky straws that they just pull out of nowhere. The Chiodo brothers rocked us with some great looking creatures in this 1988 sci-fi horror cult classic, “Killer Klowns from Outer Space”. These Killer Klowns are like those Killer Whales that grab hold of a seal, they wanna play with their food a little bit. They’re almost like humans except they leave when they’ve had all the blood they need. We’re worse than the Killer Klowns, honestly. The circus aesthetic is truly universal.

We’re deep into HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST and this week we’re going to explore a little bit of the horror from beyond the stars and this applies…we think. We’re discussing Jordan Peele’s “junior” effort. You never hear “junior” being sited when describing a director’s 3rd movie. You always hear “sophomore” but never “Junior”. But wait…didn’t Jordan Peele direct “Keanu”? His actual best movie that we saw in theaters? So yeah, this is actually his “Senior” film release and he will be in college for his next movie. Creep out with us because we’re discussing Jordan Peele’s “NOPE” starring Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer and holy shit maybe it’s actually an Angel!? Let’s keep the creepin’ movin’ today and every weekday.

“Please Hammer, don’t hurt ‘em”. That line is from an M.C. Hammer song. I typed it because every Monday for HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST we are discussing a Hammer Films vampire classic and since that film company is called “Hammer” and then you got the musician “M.C. Hammer”, I just thought that would be an interesting thing to type but it’s not. I’m sorry. It’s grasping. Another thing I wish was grasping are these Vampire vixens at my penis after they’ve been turned. Nothing like the glow-up that vampirism provides courtesy of one of cinema’s saddest ever fuckboys. Christopher Lee returns to the role of Dracula in Terence Fisher’s “DRACULA: PRINCE OF DARKNESS” from 1966. Eight years since Lee last helmed the role and he does so with zero words and with intensely forlorn expressions. Not to be confused with the John Carpenter film “Prince of Darkness” that we discussed last week and is available to hear now. Great tips on how to resurrect vampire lords if you’re ever needing to do so. We could all use a good Klove by our side.

HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST ends week 2 on a John Carpenter movie that was unappreciated in its time but has since aged like fine wine. It’s the second in what Carpenter has declared his “apocalypse trilogy”. Yep. Hell and Satan is a little more than what we traditionally know in John Carpenters 1987 horror “Prince of Darkness” starring Donald Pleasance as “Father Loomis”, the twin brother of “Professor Loomis”, and also starring Victor Wong as the scientist who, unwittingly, drags Phd students to their demise. Alice Cooper is in it and the Anti-God loves piss-play. Will Walter ever come out of the closet? Check out this cult classic and then hear us talk about it.

For this second week of HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST we basked in the glory of Larry Cohen’s killer mutant babies and now we close out the trilogy with his 1987 straight-to-video finale to the It’s Alive Cinematic Universe (IACU) with “IT’S ALIVE III: ISLAND OF THE ALIVE” starring Michael Moriarty and Karen Black. By court order, these mutant babies are the original “Island Boys” (except for the female) and “They just trying to mate”. But not before so corporate killers try to hunt them and get shredded. Also, why not send another crew to the island to study these things? Remember when they could tear your face off and run across a city straight out of a uterus? Let’s check them out when they’re five years old! I’m sure everything will be fine. Also featuring stop motion animation, Florida, chill communists and the measles.

For this week’s HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST drops we’re exploring Larry Cohen’s “It’s Alive” trilogy and we continue with the not-so-subtle social commentary as Frank returns and is backed by an organization that wants to keep these killer mutant babies alive and he will do whatever it takes to protect the Scott’s abnormal baby. But there’s a doctor whose wife had one of these babies in Seattle and it killed her so he’s got an agenda to KILL THEM ALL. It probably ate her because it was depressed living in Seattle. You know that hospital bill is gonna be unreal. Yeah, we’re talking the Larry Cohen sequel “It Lives Again” from 1978 starring Frederic Forrest, Kathleen Lloyd, John P. Ryan and John Marley. They say these things will breed at around age six. They fucking hate birthday cake.

HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST keeps on truckin’ and this week we’re gonna burn through Larry Cohen’s cult classic “It’s Alive” trilogy and today we discuss the 1974 murder baby movie that started it all. What caused this killer mutant baby to come into our world? We got some theories and one pharmaceutical corporation wants that thing destroyed just in case. We got a crazed mother and a dad that’s in deep denial but when you gaze into those bulbous eyes and those blood-soaked fangs, how can you resist as a father? Oh, you’re NOT the Dad? Well then it will probably kill you in seconds. What if your kids turn out like this? Think about it and hear us tell of it.
