Movie Matters #11 - Halloween Special II

The Movie Matters podcast returns after an impromptu extended hiatus with a Halloween special and promises of a more frequent recording schedule going forward. In this spine-tingling episode, co-hosts Lee Howard and Michael Mackenzie cast their eyes over horror movies old and new, discussing Wes Craven's SCREAM 4, Neil Marshall's THE DESCENT and Tobe Hooper and Steven Spielberg's POLTERGEIST.




The music sampled in this episode is all from HALLOWEEN by John Carpenter, THE DESCENT by David Julyan, and THE EXORCIST by Mike Oldfield.

As mentioned in the podcast, here are some comparisons between the two different colour grades of THE DESCENT: http://www.landofwhimsy.com/archives/2011/11/movie-matters-11---halloween-special-ii/

Please note that some minor audio interference may be audible in the earliest parts of the episode. This was due to failing equipment that has since been replaced and should not be a problem in future episodes.

    New Nightmare is the 7th NOES film, technically.

    I think The Descent is decent (seen it 2-3 times), but I've never quite understood the love everyone has for it. I feel like it's very overrated.

    I only saw Poltergeist for the first time on Blu-ray and wasn't terribly impressed.
