Ep. 24 - Midnight/Matinee

The hosts celebrate a most momentous occasion: one year of the show! First, we enter a cold night as an execution is the only thing on the minds of an American home is an execution set to happen….at a certain time of night. Tension is high, Bogart is young, and the film is Midnight from 1934! Next is a jump three years to the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The population of a Florida naval town has a sense of doom, feeling that at any moment…they could all be wiped out by a powerful explosion…but come on! Lawrence Woolsey is in town! And he’s got a new sci-fi thriller that pays homage to the gimmick filled sci fi films of the time with the lovable John Goodman at the helm. It’s of course Joe Dante’s 1993 film, Matinee!
