Podcast: Night of the Creeps
Can nostalgia work against a movie?
Bring Me The Axe! Horror Podcast
Episode 37: Night of the Creeps
Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon | Goodpods
Bring Me the Axe! is a comedy podcast celebrating the best (and worst) horror from a time when the video store ruled the night. Every other week, brothers Bryan and Dave White (and the occasional guest) heed the call of nostalgia and evaluate the classic 70s and 80s horror movies they loved in their childhood to determine whether the movies are still relevant today or should be allowed to fade into obscurity.
Bryan and Dave take a good long look at Fred Dekker's 1986 cult favorite, Night of the Creeps and come away with a vastly different view of it than when they watched it as kids. What could possibly change their minds so significantly? It's a pastiche of 50's and 60's drive in tropes filtered through a 1980's horror movie lens but unfortunately, given the way things have shaken out in modern times, some of those tropes haven't aged well at all. Thankfully, Tom Atkins is here to save everything. Thrill me!
