It's Alive

The Davises are expecting a baby, which turns out to be a monster with a nasty habit of killing people whenever it is scared. And it is easily scared.It’s a season of new beginnings here on All Things Being Sequel. This time we’re jumping into a new trilogy of films, starting with 1974’s It’s Alive. First off, I know the audio isn’t loud enough. Usually, I (Elliot) am too quiet, but this week I’m a little too loud. My bad, corrupt files are to blame. But this is completely listenable. Will I get a text from Eric telling me so? Yes, and possibly rightfully so. Again, it’s on Elliot; blame him. Also, I apologize for my occasional heavy breathing. We talk about our love for the use of bright red blood, throwing our children into a firing squad of cops, and how much hospital births have changed in the decades since It’s Alive’s initial release. This week, we talk a lot about pictures, which are hard to describe. If you’re interested in seeing what we are talking about, including the creepy neighbor/friend we spoke about, you can follow this link to my BlueSky, where I have posted the pictures we spoke about, and we have a good laugh about them; it’s worth checking out. See them here.And lastly, we have a new segment! Well, it’s an old segment that Eric has renamed for this season: unsubstantiated conjecture. Overall, having already recorded all five movies in this season (that’s right, three movies into five episodes, just wait), this season is a really fun ride. Watch these movies, then join us to listen and laugh along.
