Episode 356, “Gobbledyween: Creepshow (feat. Greg Sahadachny)”

Gobbledyween returns! Again! Greg Sahadachny, once and future host of The Debatable Podcast, returns! Again! To close out our truncated season of horror happenings, Paul, Arlo, and Greg flip ahead to George A. Romero and Stephen King’s kooky 1982 splash page Creepshow. Indebted to old EC horror comics, Creepshow has become a cult classic in its own right, as silly and lowbrow as it is reverent and artful. The gang discusses why the meeting of these two horror masters may not be what you would expect; the underrated craft of Romero’s filmmaking; how tough it is to view Leslie Nielsen as anything other than the Naked Gun guy these days; and Ted Danson’s head in a tank. Plus, Paul travels to the fantastical world of Hilda; Arlo checks into The Haunting of Hill House; and forgive us, Carpenter, for we have synth-ed. Next: the show blows up.   THE BREAKDOWN 00:00:00 - 00:27:59  - Intro / Banter 00:27:59 - 00:44:35  - Main Topic (NON-SPOILER) 00:44:35 - 01:51:39  - Main Topic (SPOILERS) 01:51:39 - 02:05:51  - Outro / Next Week / New Show Format!
