EPISODE 90 - An Evening With Doug




Horroretc Podcast show

Summary: Thanks for joining us for another informal episode where Ted has recruited special guest host Doug to deliver this week's show. Due to severe scheduling conflicts we were faced with missing our first week but as a test of the theory that something is better than nothing we cover: 1. Not Quite Hollywood: The true untold story of Hollywood - a truly fantastic documentary exploring the Aussie film industry and specifically the excellent genre films that spawned from the land down under. 2. Turkey Shoot (1882) - the first installment in an ongoing series dubbed the 'Aussie Film Festival'. Each week, expect a discussion of one particular film the documentary gave exposure to (the list is long). 3. A debate over the value of filmmaker audio commentaries provided via iTunes download for films currently in theatre. Fan gesture vs. smart business practice. Maybe this time it can be both. 4. More industry suggestions - concurrent PG and R rated cuts of films. 5. Michael Jackson. 6. Shutter Island trailer - a compelling Scorsese 'horror' themed film? 7. Ted's to-do list of movies in the queue and the problems they present. ...and many more topics such as Timecrimes (2007), Reign of Fire (2002), My Name is Bruce (2008), etc. Before enjoying a Schlock Corner trailer for Megashark vs. Giant Octopus (LINK), we deliver our thoughts on Stir of Echoes 2: The Homecoming. Hope you enjoy this impromptu edition of the show, tune in next week for a focused horror theme. Thanks to Eric for contributing to the show.
