In the Mouth of Madness (1994) w/Keith Phipps of The Next Picture Show


Listen Later

This week on Alcohollywood, Keith Phipps of The Next Picture Show joins us to talk John Carpenter's 1994 Lovecraftian mind-bender In the Mouth of Madness! When grizzled/semi-New Zealander insurance investigator John Trent (Sam Neill) is tasked with tracking down the missing horror writer Sutter Cane (get it? like Stephen King?), he finds himself in a metatextual nightmare where the lines between realty and fiction are intriguingly blurred. It's a curiously effective mix of campy horror chills, impressive practical effects, and mind-bending twists, so check it out along with our custom cocktail and drinking game!
