Phantom Galaxy VOD Roulette: Godforsaken, Zombie Nightmare, The Wind, Fog Island, and Mind Warp

Episode 120

mardi 23 août 2022Duration 02:29:24

VOD Roulette returns with a new episode, recorded near July 4th and full of fireworks literal and figurative!

Nathan and Bill are joined by two greats in the PG alumni category; cohost Seth Dombach, who crewed the cast with Nathan for a number of years, and returning guest and horror enthusiast Brian Scott, a true champion of the cast on social media! 

In this episode we each pick one film and let the PG community suggest titles for the fifth. 

This episode the hosts picked Zombie Nightmare, Fog Island, The Wind, and Mind Warp.

Chosen from the FB page, from a suggestion made by Amanda Lee, we also cover Godforsken from 2022.

So get ready for found footage shenanigans, Adam West cashing a paycheck, demons of the lonely prairie, murky murder mysteries, and Bruce Campbell going up against mutants and the Tall Man himself. 

I give you, VOD Roulette!

Enjoy!

During that time, from 2021 to 2022, he captured a horde of reviews of television, movies and books. Now, here they are, collected together for your listening pleasure.

Phantom Galaxy: Do Blade Runners Dream of Enduring Franchises?

Episode 117

dimanche 24 juillet 2022Duration 02:21:41

Welcome back to the Phantom Galaxy! 

As Bill Van Veghel enjoys his well deserved vacation in the wilds of Canadian, Nathan brings in guest co-host Victor Rodriguez to talk all things related to the Blade Runner franchise.

Starting with the quirky and dizzying novella 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by Philip K. Dick, Nathan and Victor roam the violent, rain-soaked streets of the future, hunting down each divergent part of this eclectic franchise. 

We take a deep-dive into the once neglected and now celebrated 1982 Ridley Scott classic that stands at the center of this universe, and then briefly explore a forgotten 1995 sequel novel by K.W. Jeter, the astounding 2017 sequel by Denis Villeneuve, and the 2021 animated series Black Lotus. 

Along the way we talk all things related to Blade Runner and the central theme of humanity and its definition that carries through each and every incarnation, discussing how each entry deals with those ideas.
