    Bonus - Jurassic Park (1993) ft. Regina Linn

    FIGHT BACK AGAINST TRANSPHOBIC ATTACKS ON THE CHILDREN OF TEXAS: Resources For Transgender Youth in Texas: https://www.txtranskids.org/ Transgender Education Network of Texas: https://www.transtexas.org/services Equality Texas: https://www.equalitytexas.org/ ---------- Whether it's a complicated layered confession from the man who introduced blockbuster filmmaking into the water supply, turning his fellow New Hollywood icons into endangered species or just the best monster movie of the 90s, Jurassic Park (1993) is a beloved institution that will never go away, that children around the world will never stop enjoying, that will never stop influencing the world of populist popcorn cinema. So why does everyone seem to get it wrong? To dig into the minutae of what makes this highly sophisticated machine tick and also just reminisce about being kids in the 90's when this came out, Patrick Ripoll and Regina Linn hold onto their butts and ask the big questions like: Is this movie actually a good demonstration of chaos theory? How does Alan Grant know how to do a Brachiosaurus call? And just how many f****d up space drugs was ET using?  All that and more on the most recent episode of Tracks of the Damned!

    S.2 E.11 - The Devil Commands (1941)

    The climax of the career of the greatest horror star of all time and also a miserable failure critically and commercially, The Devil Commands was the product of a hungry up and coming director, Edward Dmytryk, being paired with material best described as "Lovecraftian" decades before that word meant anything to anybody. In this episode of Tracks of the Damned, the horror film commentary track podcast, host Patrick Ripoll tackles the second horror boom of the 40s and asks the big questions like: is that matte painting haunted? Time-Stamps: 0:00 - 0:37  -  Apology Concerning My Thoughtless Words 0:38 - 2:47  -  Intro 2:48 - 1:10:05  -  Commentary 1:10:06 - 1:53:58  - Ten Must-See Karloff Performances 1:53:59 - 1:57:54  -  Outro

    Bonus - Hostel: Part Two (2007) feat. Gabe Powers of Genre Grinder

    The year was 2007, we were all drinking Four Loko, playing Super Mario Galaxy, listening to MIA's "Paper Planes" and taking to our Livejournals and message boards to argue about "torture porn" films. Were they pumped up cinema sadism designed to please craven adolescent creeps? Or angry political works calling back to horror's glory days of the 70's?   The better question was, perhaps, were they torture porn at all? To answer all that and more on the latest episode of Tracks of the Damned, the horror film commentary track podcast, Patrick recruited Gabe Powers of Genre Grinder to take a look at Hostel: Part Two (2007), the ambitious and oft-ignored follow up to Eli Roth's breakthrough film. We get into the influence of Tarantino, the history of Elizabeth Bathory in horror films, it's connections to Italian genre films and how Eli Roth made up for certain short-comings as a writer with one particularly brilliant piece of casting. Let's go!   0:00 - 4:16  -  Intro 4:17 - 1:51:51  -  Commentary 1:51:52 - 1:57:16  -  Outro

    S.2 E.10 - Friday the 13th (1980)

    In a world full of rip-off artists the key is how you rip something off. Sean S. Cunningham, the director of two separate Bad News Bears knockoffs, was not the first guy to go "Hey, this Halloween movie is real popular and seems cheap to make" but he was the guy who did it the exact right way at the exact right time to change the world of horror forever. On the latest episode of Tracks of the Damned Patrick finally returns to the one that started it all (the uncut version!) and talks about why critics despised it, why it was so successful and just what kind of winding road one takes from pornography to deep sea sci-fi movies. 0:00 - 5:18 - Intro 5:19 - 1:41:55 - Commentary 1:41:56 - 1:44:25 - Outro 1:44:26 - 1:48:23 - ???

    Bonus - The Evil Dead (1981) ft. Jim Laczkowski of Director's Club

    It's cold, meat is carved and you're thankful it exists. That's all the justification we need for a special Thanksgiving episode of Tracks of the Damned where Patrick & Jim sat down and did an impromptu, research-free commentary track for The Evil Dead. You may not get to be with your family this year but sit down next to the hearth (don't forget the screaming claymation Necronomicon) and warm your bones with us and Bruce Campbell. That ain't cranberry sauce! Ash gets the stuffing beaten out of him. And a third Thanksgiving joke. 0:00 - 2:43 - Intro 2:44 - 1:30:39 - Commentary 1:30:40 - 1:43:07 - Outro

    Bonus - Friday the 13th (2009)

    We've cut off heads, double impaled lovers, went 3D, we ended things, we began them again, we went Frankenstein, we went Carrie, we went to Manhattan, we went to Hell, we went to Space we went Kaiju, what the hell is left to do? Do it all again! How do you remake a movie when the things the fans love about the series don't actually exist in that movie? By remaking the entire series. As ambitious as it is divisive, Friday the 13th (2009) may not be a great film but it is a great example of the problem solving inherent to writing a remake. It's got perfect reference placement, baby. 0:00 - 2:25 - Intro 2:26: - 1:46:30 - Commentary 1:46:31 - 1:49:33 - Outro
