  1. THE ADDAMS FAMILY REUNION

    3d ago

    THE ADDAMS FAMILY REUNION

    This week, Mike & Devaughn tackle the hard to find third entry in The Addams Family franchise. Released by Sabin Entertainment in 1998, this one has never hit streaming, and was only released on VHS. Luckily, a kind soul has uploaded the movie to YouTube, and you can watch it here. After the passing of Raul Julia and the relative commercial letdown of Addams Family Values, it was time for a reboot. The great Tim Curry steps into Gomez' shoes, paired with Daryl Hannah. This one sands down any of the harsh edges, adult humor, and sexuality of the first two movies, and is aimed squarely for the kiddies. It's a shame, because once again there's a terrific supporting cast on hand including Ed Begley Jr and Kevin Mcarthy.

  2. ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES

    Jun 15

    ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES

    Mike and Devaughn are on hand to break down ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES, the sequel to 1991's smash The Addams Family. The title itself a play on the fear mongering and hand wringing over the threat to the "traditional" family, this one runs back the hits while offering some darker, slightly edgier humor. The sequel has also become a Thanksgiving favorite, and add in a scene chewing performance from Joan Cusack, and you have the rare sequel that may top the original. Listener note, next week's episode is only available on Youtube, unless you own the VHS.

    THE ADDAMS FAMILY (1991)

    This week we open a new franchise and move in a family friendly direction with THE ADDAMS FAMILY. Starting with the 1991 film of the same name, we look at the first family in the macabre. Built around a perfect cast starring Raul Julia, Anjelica Huston, Christopher Lloyd, and a young Christina Ricci, this was at the forefront of 90s IP, a craze that cashed in on Boomer nostalgia and Gen X latch key kids raised on syndicated television. Mike, Stephen, & Devaughn are on hand to talk the troubled behind the scenes production, found family, and gateway horror.  Please take a moment to rate and review us on the Apple Podcast app, or rate us on the Spotify app. Reviews and five star ratings help new listeners find us every day, and we greatly appreciate the feedback and support.  Patreon members get exclusive full length episodes, for as little as $2 at patreon.com/podandthependulum.

    THE CREEP TAPES SEASON 2

    Mike, Devaughn, & Nichole are joined again by Mae Shults (Pleasers & Punishers podcast) to review the second season of Shudder's THE CREEP TAPES. While we all enjoyed S1, we're in agreement that the second go round is a bold step forward. Featuring appearances from genre favorites (David Dastmalchian) & Mark Duplass' real life wife (Katie Aselton) the second season gets bigger, weirder, messier, and drops more Peachfuzz lore.

    DAVID BERTOLINO (Founder of SPOOKY WORLD, author BEHIND THE SCREAMS AT SPOOKY WORLD)

    As a special bonus episode, Mike sat down with David Bertolino, founder of Spooky World  and author of the new bookBehind the Screams at Spooky World.  Before there was Universal Horror Nights, and the big theme parks got in on haunted attractions, there was an old farm in the middle of Western Mass that attracted hundreds of thousands of customers every October throughout the 90s. With attractions designed by none other than Tom Savaini, and luminaries including Linda Blair, Elvira, Kane Hodder, & Robert Englund in attendance, Spooky World was the place to be every October if you lived in New England. David talks about how the haunt came to be, the community involvement, the carny atmosphere that included weddings at the park for under a buck, and the cast of characters that made the park what it was.  Pick up Behind the Screams now wherever books are sold Please take a moment to rate and review us on the Apple Podcast app, or rate us on the Spotify app. Reviews and five star ratings help new listeners find us every day, and we greatly appreciate the feedback and support.  Patreon members get exclusive full length episodes, for as little as $2 at patreon.com/podandthependulum.  Check out our website for easy access to our full catalog of shows, with hundreds of hours of free content.
