🎃 It's a THRILLER night on the All-American Spookshow! 🧟♂️
This week, SPOOKTOBER continues as we're taking a break from full-length horror movies to sink our teeth into one of the most legendary music videos of all time—MICHAEL JACKSON'S THRILLER (1983)!
Directed by John Landis (AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON), featuring the unmistakable voice of horror legend Vincent Price and groundbreaking makeup effects by Rick Baker, THRILLER transformed a pop song into a 14-minute mini horror movie that changed music videos forever!
Josh, Tiana & “Professor” Brian Smoak dig up everything that makes this Halloween classic so unforgettable! We're talking about the iconic zombie choreography, the incredible practical effects, the werecat transformation, the creepy atmosphere, Vincent Price's legendary narration and the lasting impact THRILLER had on horror, music and pop culture.
We'll also discuss the behind-the-scenes history, our memories of seeing THRILLER for the first time, and whether this legendary short film still delivers the scares more than 40 years later!
Is MICHAEL JACKSON'S THRILLER the greatest music video ever made? And does it deserve a place alongside the best horror short films of all time?
So grab your red leather jacket, practice those zombie dance moves and remember…NO MERE MORTAL CAN RESIST THE EVIL OF THE THRILLER! 🧟♂️

WNUF Halloween Special (2013)
Happy Spooktober! 🎃📺
This week on the All-American Spookshow, we’re turning the dial back to October 31, 1987 for WNUF HALLOWEEN SPECIAL (2013)!
Presented as a lost VHS recording of a local television broadcast—complete with vintage commercials, news reports and plenty of technical difficulties—the WNUF crew is broadcasting LIVE from the infamous Webber House, the site of a gruesome double murder nearly 20 years earlier. What could possibly go wrong?
Josh, Donny, Tiana & “Professor” Brian Smoak break down this unique found-footage horror movie, its incredible recreation of late-’80s local television, the seemingly endless fake commercials, Halloween atmosphere, scares, laughs and the increasingly bizarre events inside the Webber House.
Does WNUF HALLOWEEN SPECIAL capture the feeling of staying up late on Halloween night watching something you probably shouldn’t? And is it destined to become an annual Spooktober watch?
Grab some Halloween candy, adjust those rabbit ears and DON’T CHANGE THAT CHANNEL!
🎃 Welcome to SPOOKTOBER on the All-American Spookshow!
🎙️ ALL-AMERICAN SPOOKSHOW New episodes every Monday at 6 PM Eastern!
⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: We’ll be discussing the entire movie!

Deep Red (1975) Eye on Italian Cinema
🔪🇮🇹 EYE ON ITALIAN CINEMA: DEEP RED (1975) 🇮🇹🔪
The All-American Spookshow turns its eye toward Italy as we enter the blood-soaked, stylish world of Italian genre cinema!
For this edition of Eye on Italian Cinema, we're diving into Dario Argento's legendary 1975 giallo DEEP RED (PROFONDO ROSSO).
When jazz pianist Marcus Daly witnesses the brutal murder of a psychic, he becomes obsessed with uncovering the identity of the killer. But the deeper he digs, the more dangerous the mystery becomes—and somewhere among the clues is a horrifying truth that may have been staring him in the face all along.
We're breaking down Argento's direction, the film's elaborate murder sequences, its unforgettable visual style, the iconic score by Goblin, and the mystery at the heart of one of the defining films of the giallo genre.
We'll also get into what makes Deep Red distinctly Italian, its influence on the slasher films that followed, our favorite kills and moments, and whether this 1975 classic still deserves its reputation as one of the essential Italian horror films.
🩸 Turn out the lights, put on your black gloves, and keep your eyes open. We're going DEEP RED.
