Clue X Livescreamers (With Michelle Iannantuono)

On this latest episode of The Horror Obsessive Podcast, Sean Parker and JP Nunez are joined by filmmaker <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2022/06/18/an-interview-with-livescreamers-director-michelle-iannantuono/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Michelle Iannantuono</a> to discuss her movie Livescreamers and some of the surprising ways it was influenced by the 1985 comedy mystery Clue. If you’ve had a chance to catch Livescreamers during its festival run or if you’re familiar with the original film, <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2022/02/24/livescream-review/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Livescream</a>, the Clue influence might come as a bit of a surprise. See, aside from the quirky comedic vibe, Clue is a fairly standard murder mystery whodunit based on the board game of the same name, but Livescreamers couldn’t be more different, basically set as a bunch of pro-gamers playing a cursed video game, getting picked off one-by-one, and slowly realizing what it is that's killing them. So on the surface, these two movies seem to be worlds apart. But if you dig just a little bit deeper, you’ll see that they actually share a lot of the same cinematic DNA. In our conversation with Michelle, we talk about a few of those parallels while also debating the merits of the bizarre threefold ending of Clue, and Michelle gives us some behind-the-screams insights into the nonstop work that went into creating the video game world of Livescreamers. As always, Sean and JP start the episode by going over some of the biggest and best news to hit the horror world in the last two weeks. For example, we talk about Sean’s recent <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/22/digging-into-the-darkside-of-society-with-larry-wade-carrell/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">interview</a> with Larry Wade Carrell, the director of the documentary The Darkside of Society, and we briefly discuss the releases of <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/25/project-eerie-boasts-imaginative-found-footage-on-a-budget/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Project Eerie</a> and <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/20/malibu-horror-story-puts-a-fantastic-twist-on-a-classic-trope/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Malibu Horror Story</a>, two great new films putting a fantastic spin on the found-footage format. After this episode, The Horror Obsessive Podcast is going to take a little break, but don’t worry, Sean and JP aren’t going to disappear forever. They’ll be back soon enough with more podcast episodes, so keep an eye out for our return in the not-too-distant future. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

Trick 'R Treat (2007)

Trick ‘r Treat tells five spooky stories that center around beloved Halloween traditions, but there’s a bit of a twist. They all take place in the same town and on the same night, so they intertwine a lot more than you might expect. To take just a couple of examples, characters often appear in more than one segment, and there’s even a scene that gives hosts Sean Parker and JP Nunez a tiny sneak preview of a story still to come. It’s a really cool idea that’s executed just about perfectly, and throughout the conversation, the hosts go over all the things we love about it. For instance, talking about the way this movie <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2021/10/23/trick-r-treat-is-a-cinematic-celebration-of-halloween/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">honors Halloween and its central traditions</a>, the stories’ subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) undertones of suburban chaos, and the loveable little demon named Sam. On top of that, they also cover some of the best and most exciting news to hit the horror world in the last two weeks, like the recent releases of <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/08/the-exorcist-believer-emphasizes-sympathetic-characters-over-scares-and-spectacle/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Exorcist: Believer</a>, <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/06/totally-killer-takes-us-back-to-the-very-un-pc-1980s/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Totally Killer</a>, and <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/09/when-evil-lurks-puts-a-fresh-new-spin-on-the-possession-subgenre/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">When Evil Lurks</a>. If you enjoy the podcast, stay tuned for the next episode when we welcome Michelle Iannantuono and her crew to talk about their film Livescreamers and some of the surprising ways it was influenced by Clue. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

Doctor Sleep (2019)

On this episode of The Horror Obsessive Podcast, JP and Sean Parker do something they've only done once before–discuss a sequel. Back in March, they talked about the 2022 <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/03/14/the-horror-obsessive-podcast-episode-10-scream-2022/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Scream</a> requel, but in all our other episodes, we’ve focused exclusively on original films. And there’s probably a good reason for that. Horror sequels are notoriously bad, so it makes perfect sense that we would mostly pass them over. But there are a few worthwhile needles in this seemingly endless haystack of mediocrity, and on this episode of the podcast, we discuss one of the best: <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2022/05/02/ranking-all-of-mike-flanagans-films/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mike Flanagan</a>’s 2019 gem Doctor Sleep. Doctor Sleep is an adaptation of <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2019/05/17/horror-icon-stephen-king/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stephen King</a>’s fantastic novel of the same name, which is a sequel to King's classic The Shining. Taking place decades after the Kubrick movie, it shows us what Dan Torrance’s life has become in the wake of the trauma he experienced in the Overlook Hotel. Just like his father, he too struggles with alcoholism, but he eventually manages to overcome that addiction. He even finds a way to use his psychic abilities to help others, but when he meets a young girl named Abra, he has to redirect those powers to help her fend off a group of despicable child murderers called the True Knot. Doctor Sleep is an outstanding film that, though recent, still doesn’t quite get the recognition it deserves. Sean and JP talk about all the reasons we love it, like the ingenious way it bridges the gap between <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2021/03/09/shine-on-you-crazy-diamonds-stephen-king-stanley-kubrick-and-the-shining/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the two versions of The Shining</a>, the movie’s beautiful message about redemption, and the perennially relevant theme of being unafraid to let your true self shine. The discussion kicks off with the best news to hit the horror world in the last two weeks, including the recent release of <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/09/17/a-haunting-in-venice-puts-a-spooky-spin-on-your-typical-murder-mystery/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A Haunting in Venice</a>, the amazing films I saw at Fantastic Fest, and the upcoming The Boys spinoff, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gen_V" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gen V</a>. And as always, if you enjoyed listening to us talk about Doctor Sleep, join us again in two weeks for the next episode of The Horror Obsessive Podcast, when we’ll be joined by <a href="https://horrorobsessive.com/2022/06/18/an-interview-with-livescreamers-director-michelle-iannantuono/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Michelle Iannantuono</a>, director of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17524834/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Livescreamers</a>, along with some of the film’s cast to discuss the 1985 comedy mystery <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clue_(film)" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Clue</a> and the upcoming video game horror film. <hr> Hosted on Acast.
