Ep. 30 - The Dead Next Door with bonus James L . Edwards interview
from Classic American Movies · host Christopher Kelly
Man, oh man do I love this flick! It's one of those ultra-low budget movies from the 80's that you can feel an entire city (Akron, OH, to be exact) helping out to make a filmmaker's dream come true. It was secretly financed by Sam Raimi with his pay for "The Evil Dead II" and voice over's were all done by Bruce Campbell (who voices several people), Ted Raimi and other shemps.I love showing this movie to folks, and my good friend Clay Chamberlin joins the pod to discover this classic slice of zombie horror you should watch and make part of your personal collection. Stay tuned in after the episode for an interview with James L. Edwards, who was a 12-year-old boy who's life would be forever changed when he answered an ad in a newspaper looking for zombies in "The Dead Next Door."
