Phantom Galaxy

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 28. This is the start of our long awaited 'Stephen King Goes to Hollywood' series.

Stephen King is one of those undisputed masters of pop  horror, and his work has saturated so many aspects of our culture. This series will look at all King's film and television adaptations, while comparing and contrasting them with the original works that inspired them.

For this first episode Nathan and Seth go back to the beginning, to find a struggling writer hitting it big with a terrifying tale of a young, bullied girl lashing out with untold supernatural power. More than 40 years later, that writer is still going strong and Carrie, the story that started it all, has left four film adaptations and a musical in its wake!

Join us as we explore the appeal of King, how he came up Carrie as story, and what we think works best about his first novel.

Then, we'll jump into the films; DePalma's stylish thriller, the questionable sequel, a tv remake, and a big budget 2013 adaptaiton.

Keep the lights on for this one constant reader (or listener), and get ready for a trip down the King's Highway.

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 27.

They sit there, they stare with their unblinking eyes, tiny artificial hands and painted mocking smiles, planning your doom.

Nathan, Chris and Seth open up the pop culture attic and go looking for creepy evill dolls and demonic teddy bears. Here you'll find Chucky, Annabelle, Talky Tina, and others. Join us for a march down the toy aisle of terror!

Open PS to Slappy the Dummy: Yes, we forgot to mention you. Please don't throttle us in our sleep.

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 26.

A few weeks ago, the horror world lost George Romero, arguaubly one of the genre's most influential voices. Nathan, Chris Durham and Jason Kuppler team up to walk through every one of Romero's directed films and examine what made the man and his work seem so special.

On a sad note, our own podcast community lost a friend. Ivolee Henson (whose humorous observations on 'No Escape' were shared in Episode 23) passed away suddenly last month. Ivolee was a good friend and a caring mother and grandmother. I'm posting a link to a Go-Fund Me Page to raise education funds for her three grandchildren. Please consider it.

And finally, as promised, a link to George Romero directing....Fred Rogers getting a tonsillectomy!

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 25. Seth and Nathan continue their journey through David Lynch's strange country of Twin Peaks: The Return.

It's been several episodes since the mind-bending, myth-busting epsidode 8, and fans of the original Peaks have been given much to rejoice over and even more to fluster over.

This episode we delve into where Lynch really seems to be going with the overall arc of the show, teasing out the mysteries and guessing at what comes next.

And of course, what's with that scary teddy?

Note: This is complete spoiler territory. We discuss in detail events that occur in these epsiodes as well as our theories about what's coming next.

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 24. This week Seth Dombach and I take a look at the works of crazy French filmmaker Luc Besson, and specifically, his 1997 cult hit The Fiflth Element.

Additionally, we talk the Dark Tower, The Shape of Water,  A Wrinkle in Time and The Disaster Artist.

Nathan also brings his review of the already annointed box office bomb Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, and lets you know, financial prospects aside, if it's worth your time.  

Join us for that and much more, deep within The Phantom Galaxy!

Welcome to Phantom Galaxy Episode 23. This week we begin a regular feature on what's available on streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu.

We also present our second submitted Phantom Rant, and we get to use our censor noise for the first time on the podcast.

Chris and Nathan are joined by Jason Kuppler as they take a look at Netflix's Okja, The Bad Batch, and more. There's a distinctly female theme running through this week's films, especially in the horror arena. The female-centric anthology XX, and two thrillers featuring young female protgaonists (Sweet Sweet Lonely Girl and The BlackCoat's Daughter) round out the ghoulishness. And Chris reviews an old schlock movie called 'Invasion of the Bee Girls.
