S1 Ep. 4 - The Stuff (1985)

One Dark Fright

03/16/22 • 105 min

Alright, foodies, it's time to tie on your bibs and get messy because we're chomping into Larry Cohen's delectable satire, THE STUFF! In this episode we dissect all the ins and outs of a killer dessert while pondering riverside diners, porn advertising, shady ice cream business men, and the proper way to say "Eat it!" Along the way we discuss Moe Rutherford's grand plan (or lack thereof) and lament why we don't get to spend more time with the best character in the movie - Chocolate Chip Charlie! It's a packed show that might have you asking "Would I taste a smoking white goo bubbling out of the ground?" Join us!

One Dark Fright

05/31/22 • 69 min

We're back! We couldn't leave you hanging with just one episode of '80s prom goodness, so we've returned to put a bow on HELLO MARY LOU: PROM NIGHT II (1987). This one has it all - questionable bible verses, horny ghosts, horny dads, phallic carousel horses, grave-digging cardigans, exorcisms, and an ending ripped straight from CARRIE! Along the way we try to figure out just how many influences this film steals from, bid adieu to a number of characters, and then wrap up by comparing this to the original and envisioning a remake of this film.

One Dark Fright

05/17/22 • 74 min

Prom season is winding down and we're marking the occasion with a trip back in time to one of the rare sequels that easily outshines the original - HELLO MARY LOU: PROM NIGHT II! It's a nostalgic episode as we recount some of our own prom memories before diving into the madness of Hamilton High. Along the way we dig through impossible doppelganger casting, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (1984) connections, ageless hairlines, power posture, and the logistics of prom queen campaigning. We also try to figure out if anyone is "fashionable" or appropriately dressed for their age and ponder the chilly romance between Vicky's mom and dad. It's a jam-packed episode that's sure to get the old prom vibes flowing! Join us!

Come on by, and don't forget the Maui Wowie!

One Dark Fright

12/20/21 • 75 min

Welcome to the One Dark Fright Podcast! Join Ainslie Pompey, Rebecca Kintner, and Tim Waverla as we plot a course through the depths of horror cinema, discussing the good, the bad, and the gory with plenty of jokes to go around. It's the very first episode and we're getting down and dirty with the bloody yuletide slasher SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT! Along the way we discuss gratuitous boobs, creepy Christmas music, stockroom kimonos, nun BDSM, awkward pool table sex, and marvel at beefy moose-knuckle. We also delve into some, let's call them "odd", interpretations of Catholicism and wonder aloud if there are more killer Santa's in the wild before wrapping things up with the worst police officer ever put on film. And of course we couldn't leave without touching on the absurd sequel and then decide whether we liked this film more or less after this viewing. Join us for the bloody Christmas fun!

01/12/22 • 112 min

It's SCREAM week, y'all, and your humble hosts, Ainslie, Rebecca, and Tim are taking a dark plunge into the depths of SCREAM 3! In this episode we ponder if Cotton is actually made of 100% cotton, then talk rejected Spice Girl outfits, dreamy detectives, proper cigarette etiquette, Scooby Doo mysteries, and of course - micro bangs! We also try to figure out if Sidney is made of plastic and find ourselves drowning in the cesspool that is Hollywood. Naturally, we discuss part 3's relation to the rest of the franchise and how we rank the series so...Spoiler Warning! Join us - "It's a scream, baby!"

One Dark Fright

06/21/22 • 83 min

Hey kids, it's officially summer! And if you think it's hot outside, then you haven't listened to our latest episode on the fiery 1984 adaptation of Stephen King's FIRESTARTER! It's a toasty one but have no fear, we're here to cool you off as we discuss all the strange goings on in this one. Along the way we talk unreasonable oven mitts, Drew Barrymore's cuteness, questionable henchmen attire, and proper lab behavior. We also marvel at how long people wear the same set of clothes in this movie, try to decipher who has what powers, and lust after David Keith's glorious mane and inability to non-verbally communicate. That's right, we've got it all! Join us!

S1 Ep. 13 - Tourist Trap (1979) Vol. 1

One Dark Fright

08/15/22 • 78 min

Summer is almost over, but never fear! One Dark Fright is here with more sweaty mayhem as we tackle some hardcore mannequin horror in part one of our deep dive into 1979's TOURIST TRAP! Along the way we talk (in)convenient costuming, skinny dipping manners, and how to stay cool when you're stranded on the side of the road with nothing but a beach chair and a bedsheet. We also marvel at the one and only Chuck Connors! Those boyish golden locks, that business acumen, AND the charm?! He's got it all! And to top it off, he has a nasty habit of murdering dumb kids and shaking his fist at that cursed new-age highway. Come along for the ride, and don't forget to keep asking - where's Woody??

Greetings, weary travelers! The open road can be a dangerous place, but One Dark Fright is here to put your worries aside as we conclude our discussion on 1979's quirky supernatural horror, TOURIST TRAP! We're down to our final three survivors and things are about to get...suffocating. The journey may be coming to an end but we've still got lots of questions that need to be answered. Along the way we talk operatic mannequin breathing, slow-motion chases, Woody's undying sexual appeal, killer motivations, costume choices, tomahawk action, and of course, Chuck Connors! At the end we have a lengthy discussion about possible re-make ideas, Molly's place as a final girl, and where this film succeeded and where it failed. Join us!
