Bede Vs. The Living Dead Episode 8 - Mimesis: Night Of The Living Dead (2011)... The Meta-Remake That's Also Not A Remake

Hey, everyone! Welcome to episode 8 of Bede Vs. The Living Dead. The podcast where your host Bede Jermyn explores the remakes, re-edits, reimaginings, homages, unofficial follow-ups and more to George A. Romero’s 1968 classic Night Of The Living Dead across all media. Now that we are at episode 8, the podcast is now officially stepping closer and closer from reaching its milestone 10th episode. Even though we're nearly 10 episodes in, the show is only just tipping the iceberg on all things Night Of The Living Dead. Unlike the previous episodes of the show that have focused on two films, your host Bede will only be exploring just one film for this 8th instalment: the 2011 horror film Mimesis: Night Of The Living Dead (or also known simply as Mimesis in some parts of the world), which is a interesting meta kind-of-remake of the original 1968 classic from cult horror film director Douglas Schulze (Hellmaster). Joining Bede in discussing in this unique take of NOTLD is first-time guest Barton Roberts. Highlights in this episode include Bede & Barton discuss whether the film could have did more with its premise, the interesting meta ways the film approaches Night Of The Living Dead with its story, Douglas Schulze's bizarre filmmaking choices, do the plot turns make logical sense, Courtney Gains & Sid Haig's appearances, the film's social commentary and so much more. Also Bede brings back a segment that he hasn't done on the show since episode 2 called The Living Dead Unreleased, which is a quick discussion on a version of Night Of The Living Dead that either hasn't been released yet or has never been made. For this one, Bede and his guest Barton dive into *another* 3D remake of NOTLD, this time from Britain, that was suppose to come out in 2013 but still hasn't yet called Night Of The Living 3D Dead.  Links: "Night Of The Living 3D Dead" Red-Band Trailer - https://youtu.be/C8JbxteW3K4 Social Media Links: Show Twitter - @BedeVsTLD Host Twitter - @BedeJermyn Host on Letterboxd - @BedeJermyn Link Tree - https://linktr.ee/bedevsthelivingdead Host's Other Podcasts: https://linktr.ee/TheSuperNetwork Email - [email protected] Guest Links: Guest On Twitter - @BartonRoberts Credits: Art Work by Super Marcey Podcast Music Provided by DeNNo
