Who's He? at The Movies | Halloween

As Halloween draws near, Phil decided to take a look at John Carpenter's 1978 slasher film, Halloween. This is the film that started all those horror movie tropes, the unstoppable monster and the final girl. But after all this time, is it still effective as a horror film or has time and the countless sequels and imitators lessened its impact?

Andrew Smith (@Andr3wSmith) rejoins the show this week to discuss the 1984 TV story The Awakening and its 1985 novelization. Jason and Andrew are coming from very different places with regard to the story, but are more than happy to meet in the middle... and each brings a diabolical game for the other to play.

Shannon Patrick Sullivan's A Brief History of Time (Travel) brings us some data on the authorship of The Awakening.

We threw a vote out there on X for which season would like us to discuss on the next episode, from a list of four options. The results were:

Season 8 (Pertwee) 37.1%
Season 12 (Baker) 31.1%
Series 9 (Capaldi) 18.9%
Series 4 (Tennant) 12.9%

So here we are, tonight, to discuss Season 8, comprising:

Terror of the Autons
The Mind of Evil
The Claws of Axos
Colony In Space
The Daemons

Before then, of course, we also talk some recent Doctor Who news, including the battle for An Unearthly Child to join the rest of Doctor Who on iPlayer in the UK, and Dave's thoughts after seeing Katy Manning at the recent Sirens of Audio event in his hometown, Melbourne.

This week, we’ve invited twenty million Zygons over for cocktails, and now we’re starting to feel self-conscious about cooking up all that salt-and-pepper squid. And so soon we’re involved in an international political thriller that takes us from Fake New Mexico all the way to Madeupistan. It’s The Zygon Invasion.

Notes and links

Sister Lamont from Terror of the Zygons was played by Lillias Walker, who died in August at the age of 93. I hope she knew how many small children she terrified. Bless her.

I thought I would probably regret researching this, but here’s a link to the Scottish Falsetto Sockpuppet Theatre’s YouTube playlist, and here’s another link to a video where they announce the casting of Peter Capaldi as the next Doctor Who. (Brendan’s impression of them is actually pretty good.)

El Sandifer’s interview with Peter Harness was broadcast on the Pex Lives podcast feed. You can find it here.

Friend-of-the-podcast Erik Stadnik has just finished the RTD1 era on his podcast Doctor Who: The Writers’ Room, in which he and Kyle discuss the various writers and eras throughout the show’s history. In their most recent episode, they start their long journey through the Steven Moffat era with a discussion of The Eleventh Hour. Highly recommended.

Yesterday, we released the first episode of our new Space: 1999 commentary podcast, Startling Barbara Bain. Space: 1999 was, at times, a thoughtful and beautifully realised British science fiction show that dealt with questions about the very nature of the universe, and at other times was mostly about astronauts trying not to get eaten by unconvincing monsters with rubber tentacles. Our first episode, Breakaway, sees the moon hurled from its orbit by a nuclear explosion and heading off into space for some thrilling new adventures.

A couple of our podcasts are finished or on hiatus right now. Jodie into Terror was our flashcast on every episode of the Whittaker era, recorded just a couple of days after the broadcast of the episode. Bondfinger was our James Bond commentary podcast, which also covered some of our favourite spy-fi TV shows of the sixties and seventies.

Maximum Power is back! Our podcast about Blakes 7, co-produced with the Trap One podcast, makaes a start on Blakes 7 series C, with a discussion of the first episode, Aftermath.

And finally, there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we were astounded to find ourselves enjoying a late-era episode of Star Trek: Enterprise in which the Vulcans go completely rogue — Kir’Shara.

Yesterday, we released the first episode of our new Space: 1999 commentary podcast, Startling Barbara Bain. Space: 1999 was, at times, a thoughtful and beautifully realised British science fiction show that dealt with questions about the very nature of the universe, and at other times was mostly about astronauts trying not to get eaten by unconvincing monsters with rubber tentacles. Our first episode, Breakaway, sees the moon hurled from its orbit by a nuclear explosion and heading off into space for some thrilling new adventures.

A couple of our podcasts are finished or on hiatus right now. Jodie into Terror was our flashcast on every episode of the Whittaker era, recorded just a couple of days after the broadcast of the episode. Bondfinger was our James Bond commentary podcast, which also covered some of our favourite spy-fi TV shows of the sixties and seventies.

Maximum Power is back! Our podcast about Blakes 7, co-produced with the Trap One podcast, makaes a start on Blakes 7 series C, with a discussion of the first episode, Aftermath.

And finally, there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we were astounded to find ourselves enjoying a late-era episode of Star Trek: Enterprise in which the Vulcans go completely rogue — Kir’Shara.

Summary:

Andrew Smith (@Andr3wSmith) rejoins the show this week to discuss the 1984 TV story The Awakening and its 1985 novelization. Jason and Andrew are coming from very different places with regard to the story, but are more than happy to meet in the middle... and each brings a diabolical game for the other to play.

Shannon Patrick Sullivan's A Brief History of Time (Travel) brings us some data on the authorship of The Awakening.

We threw a vote out there on X for which season would like us to discuss on the next episode, from a list of four options. The results were:

Season 8 (Pertwee) 37.1%
Season 12 (Baker) 31.1%
Series 9 (Capaldi) 18.9%
Series 4 (Tennant) 12.9%

So here we are, tonight, to discuss Season 8, comprising:

Terror of the Autons
The Mind of Evil
The Claws of Axos
Colony In Space
The Daemons

Before then, of course, we also talk some recent Doctor Who news, including the battle for An Unearthly Child to join the rest of Doctor Who on iPlayer in the UK, and Dave's thoughts after seeing Katy Manning at the recent Sirens of Audio event in his hometown, Melbourne.

This week, we’ve invited twenty million Zygons over for cocktails, and now we’re starting to feel self-conscious about cooking up all that salt-and-pepper squid. And so soon we’re involved in an international political thriller that takes us from Fake New Mexico all the way to Madeupistan. It’s The Zygon Invasion.

Notes and links

Sister Lamont from Terror of the Zygons was played by Lillias Walker, who died in August at the age of 93. I hope she knew how many small children she terrified. Bless her.

I thought I would probably regret researching this, but here’s a link to the Scottish Falsetto Sockpuppet Theatre’s YouTube playlist, and here’s another link to a video where they announce the casting of Peter Capaldi as the next Doctor Who. (Brendan’s impression of them is actually pretty good.)

El Sandifer’s interview with Peter Harness was broadcast on the Pex Lives podcast feed. You can find it here.

Friend-of-the-podcast Erik Stadnik has just finished the RTD1 era on his podcast Doctor Who: The Writers’ Room, in which he and Kyle discuss the various writers and eras throughout the show’s history. In their most recent episode, they start their long journey through the Steven Moffat era with a discussion of The Eleventh Hour. Highly recommended.

Gallifrey's Most Wanted is back after a short break, and it's time for our next 2nd Doctor's  story the Fury from the Deep. Ross is joined by Frazer podcast guest extrodinaire.  The talks recons, telesnaps, animation, and all the different ways the fans have had to enjoy this tale over the years. All that and their thoughts on the story as a whole.  A lot of love for the lovely farewell story Victoria gets.

Very big thank you to Frazer for coming back on the show.
