Bonus: Twin Cities Con 2024 - Day 1: Vampire in Brooklyn (Park, MN)
CatBusRuss and ThePoeticCritic recap the first day of Twin Cities Con 2024 featuring the Ian McDiarmid panel.
CatBusRuss and ThePoeticCritic have settled into Minneapolis to prepare for "Ninety For Chill: The Podcast" at Twin Cities Con. Of course they are taking advantage of the weekend passes they were provided in exchange for the fried gold they are to deliver on Saturday, November 9.
ThePoeticCritic was content with the floor, a "What If...Doctor Who" panel, and karaoke. CatBus was scouting out other podcaster panels to prepare for his own. Be it a discussion of what makes a truly evil yet lovable villain, a Christian-themed nerd podcast being hijacked by the amateur Pokemon casters, our host thinks he has everything needed to be prepared for his time on stage.
But speaking of evil, Emperor Palpatine himself had a panel. Ian McDiarmid had a lot of fun talking about the joys of the stage and working with George Lucas. If anything was off limits, it was dealing with the current state of politics. It kind of makes you wish that Trump actually watched movies. We would have gotten to this hellscape a lot sooner and have the rebellion prepared.
If there was anything more sinister than Darth Sidious, it was the layout of Twin Cities Con. To not think about that, Russ has included his review of Wes Craven's "Vampire in Brooklyn" starring Eddie Murphy. Lets hope that Saturday will be all sunshine and rainbows. Russ was once pro-wrestling's Sith Lord. The audience best be kind.
Films Researched for this Episode: Wrong Turn 2 (2007), The Colony (2013), Antibirth (2016), and Dreamland (2019).

Episode 6: Henry Never Died

We are back this week with a new full episode of NinetyForChill.com - The Podcast. This week, I talk with my friend Kodiak Thompson about the under appreciated talent and presence of Henry Rollins. When I said we were going to address Kodiak's favorite feature (and my second best discovery of 2019) "He Never Died", Mr. Thompson was ready to binge.
This ended up being a bigger challenge than I expected. Not many of the former Black Flag front man's sub 100-minute efforts are currently available streaming at a reasonable (free) rate. It seems that his debut performance in the Charlie Sheen take on the O.J. Simpson white Bronco affair, "The Chase" may be lost. Fortunately, it is not overly difficult to find montages of his performance in that flick, and my DVD collection allowed me to let him see the 2005 Project Greenlight feature, "Feast".
This was a pricier week for the podcast. Whenever I lend out a DVD, I use it as an excuse to purchase the film in HD. Then, discussing "He Never Died" made resisting purchasing that flick a pointless act. If I am going to buy the number two flick from 2019, it only makes sense to buy the number one ("Brigsby Bear") as well. But, those consequences were worth the great content that Kodiak provided.
A long with "He Never Died" and "Feast", we were both able to share our experiences with the "Pontypool Universe" when we watched the fever dream that is "Dreamland". I also get to discuss my Vudu freebie feature, "Wrong Turn 2: Dead End" and how it has lead me to seek out assistance in producing a podcast episode dedicated to Sean Bean (I am looking for volunteers to talk about the man who always dies. Email russthebus07@gmail.com).
And this episode also fulfills all my goals thus far. My review for the Natasha Lyonne starring horror flick, "Antibirth", covered my Cronenbergian suggestions. There is also a review for Stuart Gordon's aquatic horror effort (per Screen Drafts), "Dagon" that also mentions the body horror master. And "Ally's Accessories Shop's Trash Cinema" finally delivers an acceptable feature with the Lawrence Fishburne and Bill Paxton in "The Colony".
Hope you enjoy and thank for the support.
