Blood and Black Rum Podcast - A Cult Film / Horror Podcast

We finally tackle the namesake of our Reanimated series as we take a look at Re-Animator, the 1985 horror black comedy from Stuart Gordon that took H.P. Lovecraft's original idea and gorified it up. We talk about the history of Lovecraft's works, the comedy elements that work in the film, the depths of scientific madness, Barbara Crampton (!!!), and of course the special effects. We're also drinking Contra Brewing's Deerslayer Blonde Ale!

Episode 167: Reanimated IV | 28 DAYS LATER

This time, we're talking things that aren't quite reanimated; in 28 Days Later, the film borrows a lot from zombie films but technically its threat aren't zombies but rage-infected humans. We discuss the nuances of that decision, what inspirations the film has and what it also inspired, the effect of the early-00s filmmaking techniques, and a whole lot more. We're also drinking Mean Max Brew Works' Strawberry Creamsicle Ale.

Episode 169: Reanimated VI | TRAIN TO BUSAN

We've already covered fast-moving infected for the Reanimated series, but this time they can actually be defined as zombies in Train to Busan. This Korean blockbuster from 2016 passed by both of us when it released, so we get to experience this one for the first time. We talk about the rules of the infection in the film, the comedy and emotional elements, the naivety of its characters, zombie effects, and a whole lot more! We're also talking Decadent Brewing's Apple Cinnamon Doughnut IPA.
