The new NaschyCast is a little late but well worth the wait! We
once again venture into the 21st century to check out a film in which Paul was
merely an actor for hire in a Spanish movie. By this time in his career he was
the Grand Old Man of Spanish horror but that didn't always garner him much
respect in his home country. At least the producers of SCHOOL KILLER realized
there was great potential in having an iconic horror star play the movie's
boogeyman role. Whether that potential was tapped is a matter for much
discussion. As usual the podcast veers all over the place as Troy and I run through this funhouse tale of
mirrors. We look for Scooby Snacks, attempt to diagram timelines, admire a few
interesting ideas and ask pertinent questions that the film may or may not have
any desire to answer. Check it out to see what we get up to!
The mailbag section of this episode is very exciting because
we have a voicemail from author Stephen Sullivan. He took it upon himself to
record his comments as an MP3 and send it off to us. This allows us to almost
engage in a dialog with him on NIGHT OF THE WEREWOLF and the Daninsky films as
well as a few other topics. As a fiction writer he has more than a few good
insights into what can make these beloved pieces of Euro-horror work or not
work. Good stuff! If anyone else wants to join the show in this way please feel
free to send your MP3s to naschycast@gmail.com and we will gladly respond to
your thoughts. You can also reach us over on the NaschyCast Facebook page where
fans of the show occasionally post some fun Spanish Horror related things. The
show can be downloaded from the link below or is available in iTunes. Enjoy and
have a Happy New Year!
