GBW #95: Silver Screams (Stage Fright / Blood Theatre / Demons)

<p>Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed &quot;good,&quot; &quot;bad,&quot; or &quot;what!?&quot; within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor&#39;s filmography, and more!<br></p> <p>This week, Ryan and Chris dive into three slasher films that revolve around the setting of a movie theater or stage theatre. We start with 1987&#39;s &quot;Stage Fright,&quot; a gnarly Italian slasher from Dario Argento protégé Michele Soavi that continuously up&#39;s the ante, keeps you guessing, and uses its setting to its advantage. A film that does not use its setting to its advantage is 1984&#39;s &quot;Blood Theatre,&quot; an amateurish horror/comedy from Rick Sloane (&quot;Hobgoblins&quot;) that&#39;s light on horror and even lighter on laughs. Finally, we pivot back to Argento (who produced and co-wrote) and Michele Soavi (who directed &quot;additional scenes&quot;) with Lamberto Bava&#39;s 1985 film &quot;Demons,&quot; which keeps the goopy gore and Claudio Simonetti score pumping but makes almost no sense narratively.</p> <p><br></p> <p>You can find this and future episodes - as well as subscribe to our show - on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-good-the-bad-and-the-what/id1554493814">Apple Podcasts,</a> <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0RcsQUeNROydClA6p6P9ht">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/show/the-good-the-bad-and-the-what">Stitcher</a>, <a href="https://iheart.com/podcast/78028350/">iHeartRadio</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy80Nzg1Y2NmYy9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==">Google Podcasts</a>, and more!
