Podcasting After Dark - Cult Movies and TV Shows

The Great Silence (1968) synopsis: “A mute gunfighter defends a young widow and a group of outlaws against a gang of bounty killers in the winter of 1898, and a grim, tense struggle unfolds.” Starring: Jean-Louis Trintignant, Frank Wolff, Vonetta McGee, and Klaus Kinski Director: Sergio Corbucci This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review The Great Silence! A fantastic spaghetti western by the director of Django (1966), and clearly an inspiration for a few scenes in Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight (2015). We highly recommend watching The Great Silence before listing to our review because the ending is quite a doozy! (Thankfully the Blu-ray has some less traumatic versions of the climax included on the extras lol) Leave a comment on our social media pages or Patreon and let us know what you think of this episode or the movie itself.

Godzilla (1954) synopsis: “American nuclear weapons testing results in the creation of a seemingly unstoppable dinosaur-like beast.” Starring: Akira Takarada, Momoko Kôchi, Takashi Shimura, and Akihiko Hirata Director: Ishirô Honda This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review the original Godzilla! That’s right, the one that kicked off an entire genre of films: Giant rubber monster movies! To be clear, this is not the version of Godzilla that came out two years later 1956 with Raymond Burr inserted into it. This is the original all-Japanese cast, and the superior version, in our opinion!

A huge THANK YOU to Rob for picking Godzilla for us to review through Patreon! His previous film choices were Guyver 2 (1994), Excalibur (1981), The Convent (2000), and Suburbia (1983). — SUPPORT THE INDIE HORROR MOVIE, BAMPIRE — WEBSITE / INDIEGOGO INSTAGRAM / FACEBOOK — SUPPORT PODCASTING AFTER DARK — PATREON - Two extra shows a month including Wrap-Up After Dark and The Carpenter Factor, plus other exclusive content!

Nemesis (1992) synopsis: “Alex, a burned out LA cyborg cop, is forced by commissioner Farnsworth to find his former cyborg partner and lover Jared who's about to deliver sensitive data to cyborg terrorists who wish to wage war against humans.

This month on 80s Kids Unite, Zak, Dustin, Corey, and Diallo discuss which martial arts moves they wish they could do, growing up. It’s a silly but fun discussion about everything from “NUMBchucks” to ninjas and all the “Danialsons” in between.

Robotech (1985) synopsis: “An alien spaceship crash lands on Earth and the technology and secrets she bears lead Earth into three destructive interplanetary wars.” IMDb Link This week on Podcasting After Dark presents TV Obscura, Zak, Corey, and Diallo review Robotech: The Macross Saga! The boys specifically talk about the US version Harmony Gold released in syndication in 1985, but they do discuss The Super Dimension Fortress Macross that came out in 1982 in Japan, thanks to Diallo’s immense knowledge of the topic. Zak rounds out the conversation with some background on the tie-in toys Matchbox released… but no one really owned.

Knockabout (1979) synopsis: “Two brothers and small time crooks Yipao and Taipao convince a martial arts expert to take them on as students, completely oblivious to his sordid past.” Starring: Yuen Biao, Ka-Yan Leung, Chia-Yung Liu, and Karl Maka Director: Sammo Hung This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review the kung-fu cult classic, Knockabout! A truly jaw-dropping piece of cinema from the mind of Sammo Hung, and it’s Yuen Biao’s first leading role. Also, Knockabout is Zak and Corey’s first true “karate man” movie on PAD, as Eddie Murphy would say in Trading Places lol! I mean, yes, they covered Hard Target and Cyborg, but this is on a whole other level, martial arts wise. A huge THANK YOU to Paulette for selecting Knockabout for us to review via our Patreon page!

A movie Zak has been talking about bringing to PAD since they first started doing the show, and Corey, a first-time viewer, was not let down at all! The Gate is a fantastic kid-friendly cult horror movie that still holds up in 2024, especially the minions! And we aren’t talking about the yellow guys from Despicable Me lol!

We kick off the first episode of 80s Kids Unite with Garbage Pail Kids! Zak, Dustin, Corey, and Diallo all discuss their familiarity (or lack thereof) with the disgusting trading cards Topps began printing in 1985, and whether or not they hold up nostalgically! The boys also talk about the terrible 1987 film based on the brand.

Yes, the film has other names, a lot of them, in fact, but this is the one the boys know it as so that’s what we’re calling it lol! Now that we got that out of the way, Zak and Corey are really excited to breakdown and review, Manchester Morgue. A film that both hosts love because, like Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things, it inhabits and interesting time in zombie movie history: A time before all the rules were really locked in by George Romero with Dawn of the Dead in 1978.

Android (1982) synopsis: “A strange doctor secretly experiments with androids on his space station. His assistant is Max, a curious android who wants to see the world and meet a girl. Criminals hide on their station and soon violence erupts.” Starring: Klaus Kinski, Don Keith Opper, Brie Howard, and Norbert Weisser Director: Aaron Lipstadt This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review Android! A Roger Corman produced film that’s so much better than it has any right to be. And if you think Don Keith Opper only plays dimwitted handymen, like he did in Critters, then you are in for a surprise! He’s a tour de force in Android, and that says a lot considering he’s co-starring with Klaus Kiniski! A huge THANK YOU to Cam for selecting Android for us to review via our Patreon page!

Hey, PADsters! Here’s the audio from the 80s Kids Unite panel that Corey, Zak, and Diallo from Podcasting After Dark & TV Obscura did with Dustin Rubin and Paul London from Two Dollar Late Fee & Territory Marks! It was a packed house and a great crowd. We cleaned up the audio the best we could but it was recorded in an open room so don’t expect studio-quality sound lol! This also serves as an introduction to a new monthly series that will be dropping on both the PAD and Two Dollar Late Fee feeds called, you guessed it, 80s Kids Unite! Not only will the gang be talking about their favorite stuff from that decade but Patreon members can submit suggestions too! So, if you are a member to either account (you don’t have to be a member of both, though we know a lot of you are) then swing over and let us know what you want the boys to discuss on upcoming episodes of 80s Kids Unite! — SUPPORT PODCASTING AFTER DARK — PATREON - Two extra shows a month including Wrap-Up After Dark and The Carpenter Factor, plus other exclusive content!

A truly underrated horror/thriller from the early 90s, and a movie the boys are more than happy to cover on the show. With a stellar cast and awesome effects, Body Parts should please both the gore hounds and the lovers of fine cinema equally. You can quote us on that!

This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review Elves! This might be the darkest holiday movie the boys have covered on the show to date, and that’s saying a lot considering they’ve reviewed both Silent Night, Deadly Night parts 1 and 2! What makes Elves so much worse (but equally awesome) you ask? You’ll have to listen to find out!

The Story of the Faithful Wookiee (1978) synopsis: “An animated story that aired as part of the 1978 made-for-TV-film The Star Wars Holiday Special.” IMDb Link Cobra Claws Are Coming to Town (G.I.Joe S1E39 | 1985) synopsis: “After successfully infiltrating Joe headquarters using very unusual means, COBRA plans on ruining Christmas in Keystone City by attacking the city in Joe vehicles.” IMDb Link Have Yourself a Morlock Little Christmas (X-Men S4E12 | 1995) synopsis: “Storm and grouchy humbug Wolverine go last-minute shopping in Manhattan, only to be caught in a life-or-death crisis involving Leech, the littlest Morlock.” IMDb Link This week on Podcasting After Dark presents TV Obscura, Zak, Corey, and Diallo review three of their favorite holiday themed cartoon episodes. Sure, Corey’s isn’t technically Christmas-y but it was part of The Star Wars Holiday special so that counts, right? Don’t worry, though, “Have Yourself a Morlock Little Christmas” and “Cobra Claws Are Coming to Town” more than make up for it!

This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2! If you listened to our breakdown of SNDN Part 1 last year, you knew this was coming. I mean, how could it not? Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 is a quintessential cult classic. What it lacks in the music department (nothing beats “The Warm Side of the Door” from Part 1) it more than makes up for in pure zaniness. Also, Eric Freeman is a goddamn studfarm, and you can quote us on that! Leave a comment on our social media pages or Patreon and let us know what you think of this episode or the movie itself.
