NECRO 221 GHOST WATCH

Thursday May 02, 2024

Thursday May 02, 2024

This week we go back to the 90’s to check out as film that influenced last week’s episode LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL. 1992, an unsuspecting British audience was subjected to GHOST WATCH, a program that was largely perceived as being real! For years, this film has been hard to find until the good people at Shudder at it to their streaming platform.

NECRO 219 THE SECT

Thursday Apr 18, 2024

Thursday Apr 18, 2024

This week we turn our eyes to the work of Michele Soavi, one of Dario Argento’s proteges. His output is relatively small to The Maestro but he put our some interesting films.  The Sect a.k.a The Devil’s Daughter, a.k.a. La Setta is a wild ride through a dream world. This 1991 film has it all: hipppies, Satanists, bikers and a typically Italian meandering storyline.

NECRO 218 LOST HIGHWAY

Thursday Apr 11, 2024

Thursday Apr 11, 2024

The age old debate over whether or not David Lynch makes horror movies rages on. Here a Necromaniacs we firmly say “Sometimes.”  This week, the late 90’s classic Lost Highway is our focus, featuring awesome performances by Bill Pullman, Patricia Arquette, Robert Blake and Balthazar Getty, this is debatably one of Lynch’s most linear films. 
 
Intro:     “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill
Outro:   “I’m Deranged” – David Bowie

NECRO 217 THE PSYCHIC

Thursday Apr 04, 2024
