Summary: It's another trip back to yesteryear as the Horroretc Podcast pays tribute to the films of the Black and White era. There is still something special about the photography and atmosphere of a black and white film, a depth to the shadows and tension generated through strategic placment of lighting. This show is not a list of all time great titles (no mention of Psycho or any Universal monster), but rather a sampling of recommendations from your hosts to seek out and experience. We hope to speak to why some of the key titles earn their reputation as greats, as well as mention a few that you may not yet have heard about. The topic did provide an opportunity to discuss The Innocents (1961) which somehow had not yet come up in a previous podcast (?) as well as personal favorites such as Night of the Demon (1957) and Repulsion (1965) to name only a few (it's a pretty long list). So sit back, kill the lights and get immersed into a visit to the classic terror of black and white. We round out the show with some relaxed banter catching up on news, boxing day finds, recent watches, audio feedback and the death of a beloved podcast.
