Podcasting After Dark - Cult Movies and TV Shows

Dinosaucers (1987) starring Len Carlson, Rob Cowan, Marvin Goldhar - IMDb
Dino-Riders (1988) starring Dan Gilvezan, Charlie Adler, Peter Cullen - IMDb
Denver, The Last Dinosaur (1988-90) starring James Swodec, Loïc Baugin, Stéphane Bazin - IMDb

This week on our most focused TV Obscura episode to date, Corey, Zak, and Diallo discuss three dinosaur-themed cartoons from the late 80s. Even though they all feature everyone’s favorite “terrible lizards,” each show couldn’t be more different in tone or design! Ranging from space dinosaurs that can shapeshift to mind-controlled dinosaurs being used in battle… to dinosaurs that can play guitar! 1988 was a wild time to be a kid and extinct animal lol

Session 9 (2001) synopsis: “Tensions rise within an asbestos cleaning crew as they work in an abandoned mental hospital with a horrific past that seems to be coming back.”

Starring: David Caruso, Peter Mullan, Josh Lucas, and Stephen Gevedon
Director: Brad Anderson

This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak walks us through one of his favorite modern horror films, and the movie he always recommends when someone asks for an “actual scary movie,” Session 9! This is Corey’s first viewing but he does have an odd history with the film, which he explains on-air. That and Zak’s enthusiasm for Session 9 really hyped it up for him, which can sometimes backfire.

So, how does Session 9 hold up 20 years later? Spoiler alert: fantastically! Even with all the hype, Corey was truly terrified during his first viewing… and the feeling didn’t diminish on his second viewing either. This is a film that lingers with you long after you’ve seen it and we hope our review will open it up to more people. Session 9 is that damn good!

This month on the PAD Watchlist, Corey and Zak are joined by author, David Irons to discuss the horror movies that traumatized us growing up! We decided to focus specifically on films from that genre because Zak already did a similar Watchlist with Dustin from Two Dollar Late Fee way back in Season 1 (it’s a great episode if you haven’t already listened to it - Listen Here).

You might be surprised by some of the movies that show up on this list but rest assured, there’s a story behind every single one of these! And isn’t that why you listen? To hear about our traumatic childhoods? And boy oh boy do we have some good ones here, especially David lol! He somehow fids a way to make Troll 2 scary! Wait until you hear that one…

Leave a comment on our social media pages and let us know what you think of our watchlist!

Night of the Living Dead (1990) synopsis: “When the unburied dead return to life and seek human victims, seven refugees seek shelter in a house in the Pennsylvanian countryside, but the group is at odds as to how they should deal with the situation.”

Starring: Tony Todd, Patricia Tallman, Tom Towles, and Bill Moseley
Director: Tom Savini

This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review Tom Savini’s Night of the Living Dead (1990) remake! Co-host Corey saw this movie in the theater when he was twelve years old and he was equal parts terrified and fascinated! It’s also one of the movies he watches every October to get in the Halloween spirit. Needless to say, Corey has a lot of enthusiasm for Night of the Living Dead (1990) as he showruns the breakdown lol!

While co-host Zak also saw it in the theater when it originally came out, this version of George Romero’s classic tale didn’t get quite as much replay in his youth. The two perspectives lead the duo down some interesting conversational paths, as per usual on this podcast. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy our review of Night of the Living Dead (1990)!

This week on a special Halloween episode of TV Obscura, Corey, Zak, and Diallo discuss their favorite horror anthology shows from the 1980s! They cherrypicked episodes from each program that either traumatized or fascinated them as kids (usually the former). Because of this, the boys are able to discuss full episodes as well as the series as a whole, something they’ll have to do again whenever they review more anthologies in the future.

As always, we hope you enjoy this installment of TV Obscura! Leave a comment on social media or Patreon and join the discussion :)

One Dark Night (1982) synopsis: “As part of an initiation into a club called the Sisters, a young girl must spend the night in a mausoleum.”

Starring: Meg Tilly, Robin Evans, Leslie Speights, and Melissa Newman
Director: Tom McLoughlin

It took awhile but we’re finally getting to Zak’s much discussed PG horror movie, One Dark Night (1982)! As mentioned in the episode, we were supposed to review it last year closer to our review of The Car (which was Corey’s PG horror pick) but thanks to a post office snafu the package didn’t show up until almost a year later lol. Better late than never, right?

That was Corey’s feelings about One Dark Night, a film he had never even heard of until Zak brought it to the show, but now he friggin loves it! And how could you not? It’s essentially a “What If?… Professor X was evil” horror story. Way ahead of its time and, we’re happy to report, still holds up well in 2021! If you haven’t seen One Dark Night we highly recommend watching it as soon as possible. It has an awesomely spooky vibe and makes for a great Halloween flick!

This week on Podcasting After Dark presents TV Obscura, Corey, Zak, and Diallo dive into three fun cartoons from their youth! Not only did do they discuss their love for these particular properties, but since the three shows they’re covering span over ten years it also allows them to discuss how the industry changed over time (particularly how important the toy tie-in was by the mid 80s). We hope you enjoy the conversation and the blast of nostalgia!

The Shivers (1975) synopsis: “The residents of a suburban high-rise apartment building are being infected by a strain of parasites that turn them into mindless, sex-crazed fiends out to infect others by the slightest sexual contact.”

Starring: Paul Hampton, Joe Silver, Lynn Lowry, and Allan Kolman
Director: David Cronenberg

Holy shiv! This week on Podcasting After Dark we are reviewing David Cronenberg’s first major motion picture, Shivers! This is the second part in co-host Corey’s series of movies he discovered during the 2020 quarantine (The Burning being the previous film).

If you are a fan of David Cronenberg’s later work then you’re probably familiar with the themes he likes to explore: sex and body horror. If, on the other hand, this is your first foray into uncharted territory then brace yourself, we touch on a lot of taboo subjects as we break this movie down scene by scene. I mean, you have to. You can’t talk about Cronenberg without being a little taboo. Either way, we hope you enjoy the show!

This week on the PAD Watchlist, Corey and Dustin from Action, Action podcast rank their top five Sci-Fi Movie Ground Vehicles (another winner of a title by yours truly)! The boys have a blast going down memory lane, especially since they are both the same age (1978 babies lol). Thanks to Dustin for also bringing an extensive batch of Honorable Mentions to this Watchlist- it lead to some interesting discussions!
