Split Picks: Tobe Hooper's 'Lifeforce' vs. 'Spontaneous Combustion'
Split picks kicks off a special series devoted to four iconic American horror directors by examining two should-be-classic Hooper films.
Bennett Glace and Jim Hickcox help Craig kick off a special new series for October Horror about the four most iconic American horror directors, or Mount Rushgore, if you will. We begin with Tobe Hooper, best known as the director of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and as the director Steven Spielberg replaced on Poltergeist. Jim and Bennett are bringing some of their favorite Hooper films to the Split Picks arena with Lifeforce (1985) and Spontaneous Combustion (1990).
Together they discuss a vampiric melodrama about a naked space lady who wreaks havoc on Earth, and they make the case for Brad Dourif and his explosive performance being among horror's finest. Together, they argue why Tobe Hooper belongs in the pantheon of American horror directors for more than just Texas Chain Saw.
