NIACW 174 Signs


Signs is a scary little movie.  It has some plot holes to be sure but it holds up as a horror/sci-fi Hitchcockian thriller. Ignore the jerk director and enjoy it for what it is.

Warning: At 37:54 Eric tries to drop some knowledge about the movie. After hearing this, Brother J decides that the dropped knowledge doesn’t help the plot holes and actually hurts the watching experience. So there’s that.

You’ll also hear the sounds of hell and the sounds of dying cosmonauts (all tricks, no one was harmed in the making of these recordings – as far as we know) Housekeeping starts at 1:01:45, you’ll hear some train stories.

NIACW 173 Roxanne



Eric thinks Steve Martin’s Roxanne is great like comfort food; Brother J thinks it’s 2/3 of a good film. After 30 minutes of film talk Eric and J take a train to Audible book talk that goes wildly off the rails at the end. Good times!

NIACW 172 2010:The Year We Make Contact



2010: The Year We Make Contact is definitely no 2001: A Space Odyssey… Right!

Which is a good thing, although Brother J and Eric still differ in opinions about the Kubrick classic.

First we discuss USA politics because it’s scarier than any horror movie and then we do some introspection about the flow of our podcasts lately.

This is the second of three in a row without Brother Drew who returns in two weeks for the Signs episode for Halloween.

NIACW 171 Young Frankenstein



Young Frankenstein is all of the atmosphere of Universal horror of the 30s and all of the schticky fun of Mel Brooks.

Eric and Jason talk a lot about Gene Wilder, Marty Feldman, and Herve Villechaize.

Eric confuses hilarious Canadian Graham Clark with Python’s Graham Chapman.

They also talk about Black Christmas (1974) , Jaws, Phantasm , Arachnophobia , and Damnation Alley .

Jason talks about the Oregon coast and Christopher Lee.

Then at 36:30, we time travel to September of 2015 and some housekeeping Drew had about Mr. Robot and Misophonia.

NIACW 170 The Man With The Golden Gun (Bond 9)




It’s back to Bond for a movie all the bros enjoyed. It’s not a great movie by any measure, but it’s fun.
We start with our own cold open where we encourage you to buy Dracula, presented by Fangoria Musick and Bleak December.

You might notice some lack of audio quality at first but it gets resolved and explained about 8 minutes in. We also get to hear Herve Villechaize sing (not in Venezuela)

Bleak December’s Dracula, Bite-Sized but Bloody Good


“I walk among them, a stranger in their midst. A city teaming with life and I, the angel of death.” 
Thus begins “Dracula,” a full-cast audio drama produced by Bleak December.    

As a lifelong fan of audio productions, from the classic radio of Arch Obler’s Lights Out to the newest audiobooks, I am always on the lookout for new horror selections.  So it was with eager anticipation that I approached this interpretation of Dracula.

The drama stars Anthony D. P. Mann of the Horror ETC podcast (and so much more) who is also the executive producer.  Mann’s Professor Van Helsing drives the story and his enthusiasm shows through and reassures us that we are in capable hands.

The supporting cast includes Steve Spencer, Becca Fryer, Dave Hudson, and Nikolas Yuen, all of whom give solid performances.  

The count himself is portrayed by Tony Todd of Candyman fame.  This is perfect casting.  Todd’s voice is incredibly rich and his delivery is both seductive and menacing.  

Brent Holland’s original music sets a perfect audio stage and the audio production itself is top-notch.  Listening with headphones highlights the masterful use of the stereo environment.   If this is any indication of the production values of future Bleak December projects then sign me up; I’ll buy everything they have to offer

Which brings me to my only criticism of Dracula.  It’s just under 30 minutes.  Make no mistake, at only $1.99 it’s still an incredible value but it left me wanting more.  More from Tony Todd, more from Tony Mann.  

I want to live longer in the world they’ve created.   

So to the dear reader I implore:  buy a copy of Dracula, now available at Fangoria Musick.

Dracula, presented by Fangoria Musick and Bleak December


While you are there and in the Halloween mood pick up Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven as performed by Anthony D. P. Mann and Maurizio Guarini (of the Goblins).

  The Raven 

By supporting these artists we can enable them to make more projects.

 I, for one, can’t wait for the next offering.
