Welcome to my childhood nightmare – thanks Jeff

Welcome to my childhood nightmare – thanks Jeff – A QYDJ podcast

Well I wasn’t going to podcast this weekend but then it felt weird not to, so it’s just me flying solo for fortunately nowhere near as long as they usually go!

Listen to the podcast as I reveal deep dark childhood fears, cast aspersions on Andrew as I make claims that his copy of Summer School was a pirated copy (it wasn’t I’ve since remembered, I think) and let you in on some of the new weekly posts that are coming to Quit Your Day Job!

Plus one TMNT 2 reference (for those playing TMNT 2 bingo at home).

You can always subscribe via iTunes.

Download the mp3 to enjoy on the train!

In case anyone is interested the website Badmovies.org has an entry on the film Spaceship, it includes the song I want to eat your face, the horror…

The monster from Spaceship

Andrew

I tried to get Mel to watch Summer School, but she wouldn't have a bar of it. No appreciation of class movies some people. Trying to find a copy of "Biggles- Joins the 80s" too online, but with little luck. Dale bought a copy of it on DVD. I am poor student now- again- so have no money for the little things.

Saw "The 'Burbs" six months ago. That movie is still funny.

HR Puff n Stuff used to scare me. Still does in a lot of ways. It is that freaky flute. Why the hell does it talk?

Lee

I forgot you loved Biggles, you should get Dale to copy it for you.

The Burbs holds up particularly well, we watched that last year some time and it really is still funny.

So you gone back to study? Send me an email let me know what you're up to!

MC

I was just watching Summer School this morning. No word of it a lie.

And The Stuff is one of those movies I've been looking for on DVD for a while.

Lee

You don't need to find 'The stuff' on DVD - all copies should be thrown into the lava pools of mount scaremeinster.

Summer School rocks, I'm going to try and convince Tracey to watch it.

Jeff

ha ha ha ha ha ha.... Thanks for that podcast. Spaceship needs more exposure. :)

I didn't realize it until just now, but I have to do a blog entry on this film myself. Maybe this week.

Childhood movie that terrified me (though it's not silly): Dracula. I snuck out into the hallway after bed while my parents were watching it and saw one of the brides (or whatever they were) getting staked. Freaked. Me. Out. I saw vampires in every shadow for a full decade. I'm only now able to watch vampire movies again. And only if they're not dead serious. That "Bram Stokers Dracula" that came out with Gary Oldman was the first and only serious vampire movie I've watched in the last 30 years years, and it still freaks me out.

I don't want to encourage more people to see 'that movie'. The producers owe me a bunch of full nights of sleep, i blame them for not being taller, my growing body didn't get its growing time at night because I was lying there chanting "can't sleep, orange blob creature with one eye will eat me".

I don't think I was ever really terrified of the Universal Pictures movies at all, possibly why i like them so much!
