Episode 19A - Tales of Halloween (2015) & Trick 'R Treat (2007)

Welcome back fellow Late-Nighters! This year, Axis and Moaner decided the best way to celebrate Halloween was to do some anthology horror films. What could possibly be more Halloween and Horror-Anthology than the pairing of The October Society’s Tales of Halloween (2015) and Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘R Treat (2007).

In contrast to Trick ‘R Treat, (due to the insane amount of talent and directors featured in the film) re-watching Tales of Halloween reminded Moaner of Saturday Night Live’s Rap Video comedy skit. For those who haven’t seen the late George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead (which played throughout Tales of Halloween), you can view it as it is part of the public domain.

Moaner and Axis also thought it would be neat to show fans what an old-school Halloween Safety Educational Video from Centron looks like which you can view here. Here, you can watch the first Sam cartoon, that creator, Michael Dougherty animated back when we was a student at NYU. Also, if you enjoyed Trick ‘R Treat but haven’t purchased a copy in several years, Moaner recommends getting the Shout Factory edition and watching the deleted scenes (they really do add a different layer to the film). Finally, for those who miss actress, Samm Todd - who played the character of Rhonda, you watch her latest interview at Scares That Care 2021 with journalist, Todd Staruch, The Horror Nerd.

Episode 12A - Rare Exports (2010) & Gremlins (1984)

Bringing 2020 to a close, Moaner and Axis decided to watch Rare Exports (2010) and Gremlins (1984) in celebration of the holidays. For those interested in learning a bit more about Krampus, Moaner recommends picking up a copy of Rue Morgue 107.

From the entire TLN crew: Safe holidays, Happy New Year, and we look forward to seeing you again in 2021!
