A rocket crashes into the sea off the coast of Sicily. The doomed expedition had just been to Venus and back. Its crew is (mostly) dead. A child finds a capsule containing a specimen that will soon grow into a rampaging beast that will terrorize Rome. It could only come from the 50s. It could only come from Ray Harryhausen and producer Charles Schneer. It could only be 20 MILLION MILES TO EARTH! Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready to howl at the moon as your horror hosts, Dan and Faith, take a look back at the classic 1957 creature feature that introduced audiences around the world to the Ymir, a Venusian creature with a mind for sulphur and rampaging. The story and effects are by the legendary Ray Harryhausen (JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS, CLASH OF THE TITANS). William Hopper (PERRY MASON) and Joan Taylor (EARTH VS. THE FLYING SAUCERS) co-star, but the creature is the real feature of this feature and what a featured creature he is!

It is midnight in Cozy Corner and around the world. Pour yourself a cup of coffee, bundle up and get ready to travel down to Outpost 31. March is John Carpenter month on the Late Night Fright. The next film up is his 1982 masterpiece THE THING starring Kurt Russell. Still waters run deep but paranoia runs deeper. THE THING was critically reviled upon its initial release but became a cult film upon its home video release and has undergone a critical reevaluation since then. The film is based upon the novella WHO GOES THERE by John Campbell, Jr., editor of ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION. Howard Hawks produced a successful 1951 version entitled THE THING FROM OUTER SPACE directed by Christian Nyby, a film Carpenter admires very much. Truer to the source material, THE THING, adapted by Bill Lancaster, chronicles what happens when Snake Plissken plays a game of chess with a shape shifting alien. Featuring a score by Ennio Morricone and wonderful supporting performances, THE THING may just be Carpenter's masterpiece. The first episode of this two parter deals with the history of the story, Carpenter's signature style, thematic elements and the score. Join us...if you dare!!! | |||

Sweeney, Robert Patrick and James Garner.

07 Dec 2020 | Peter Cushing/Christopher Lee month episode 1: The Brides Of Dracula (1960) and Dracula's Daughter (1936) | 00:56:58 | |
Welcome to the 194th episode of the LATE NIGHT FRIGHT, broadcasting live from WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio. Thank you all for tuning in, be you a carbon based life form from spaceship Earth, or an astral traveler from a dimension yet to be discovered. Welcome one and all! Tonight’s episode for December 7th, 2020 begins our month long celebration of the films of two of horror’s most revered names: Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. The Hammer house of horror was built on 1957’s THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, starring Cushing as Baron Frankenstein and Lee as the creature, and 1958’s DRACULA (released as HORROR OF DRACULA in the United States), which featured Cushing as Dr. Van Helsing and Lee in his iconic role as Count Dracula. Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee would go on to appear in 22 films together and remained the closest of friends for the rest of their lives. Peter Cushing has the spotlight tonight in 1960’s THE BRIDES OF DRACULA from Hammer Films. The first sequel to DRACULA finds the good doctor back in Transylvania battling a handsome vampire by the name of Baron Meinster (David Peel) who has his sights set on lovely school teacher Marianne Danielle (Yvonne Monlaur). Directed by legendary horror director Terence Fisher (THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, DRACULA, THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES, THE MUMMY) and filmed beautifully by director of photography Jack Asher, THE BRIDES OF DRACULA is a thrilling and chilling Gothic vampire film and a worthy sequel to its landmark predecessor. We have paired THE BRIDES OF DRACULA with another sequel to a landmark film. Five years after Bela Lugosi terrified audiences in Universal’s classic 1931 production of DRACULA, moviegoers were treated to 1936’s DRACULA’S DAUGHTER from director Lambert Hillyer (1945’s 15 part BATMAN serial). The film is a direct sequel to its predecessor and features a return appearance from Edward Van Sloan (DRACULA, FRANKENSTEIN, THE MUMMY) as Van Helsing alongside Otto Kruger (an apt name for a horror movie lead, don’t you think), Gloria Holden as the title character, Marguerite Churchill, and Irving Pichel. Released during Universal’s golden age run as the original house of horror, DRACULA’S DAUGHTER is a worthy entry in the canon, featuring all of the thrills, chills and atmosphere one expects from a classic Universal horror film. Tonight’s commercials include spots for Farmer Felcher’s Old Fashioned Gluten, Holy Smoke (Cozy Corner’s premier Christian vape shop), Rumps Adult Novelty and Soda Fountain, and Hammer Curlz, an exciting new workout program hosted by the one and only Bobby D’Amato (host of AFTERGLOW, the show that comes on after THE LATE NIGHT FRIGHT). As always, there is a news break featuring all of the fake news not fit to print. Join your hosts, Dan and Faith, as they work the graveyard shift at WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio to bring you THE LATE NIGHT FRIGHT, the horror movie review show that is so important it has been released on Laserdisc AND Betamax!

Join Dan and Faith for a look back at the horror/comedy film, a discussion about the impact of positive and negative emotions, John Belushi, and bureaucratic nonsense.

WATCH HORROR FILMS, KEEP AMERICA STRONG! Those were the words of the legendary Bob Wilkins, host of CREATURE FEATURES, the influential show that ran in the Bay Area from 1971 to 1984. As we find ourselves in the midst of the 2020 election season, THE LATE NIGHT FRIGHT has taken these words to heart. Say it with us: WATCH HORROR FILMS, KEEP AMERICA STRONG! Tonight we journey back through the mists of time to a land of coffee houses, the Lilith Fair, and Oval Office hummers. That time is the 90s. The film is 1998’s URBAN LEGEND from director Jamie Blanks (VALENTINE) and writer Silvio Horta (UGLY BETTY), a film that arrived in the wake of SCREAM and I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, two movies that ignited the horror renaissance of the mid to late nineties. On the campus of a northeast college, a series of murders modeled after urban legends are taking place. Who is next? Who is the killer? Why does Joshua Jackson have blonde hair? These are just a few of the questions that lie at the heart of the movie! The cast includes Oscar winner Jared Leto (DALLAS BUYERS CLUB, SUICIDE SQUAD), Alicia Witt (DUNE, TWIN PEAKS), Rebecca Gayheart (ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD), Joshua Jackson (DAWSON’S CREEK), Loretta Devine (WAITING TO EXHALE), Tara Reid (AMERICAN PIE, VAN WILDER), Michael Rosenbaum (SMALLVILLE, BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE), and horror legend Robert Englund (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA).

14 Dec 2020 | Peter Cushing/Christopher Lee month episode 2: The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) and The Mummy (1959) | 00:58:36 | |
Welcome to the 195th episode of the LATE NIGHT FRIGHT, broadcasting live from WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio. Thank you all for tuning in, be you a carbon based life form from spaceship Earth, or an astral traveler from a dimension yet to be discovered. Welcome one and all! Tonight’s episode for December 14th, 2020 begins our month long celebration of the films of two of horror’s most revered names: Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. The Hammer house of horror was built on 1957’s THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, starring Cushing as Baron Frankenstein and Lee as the creature, and 1958’s DRACULA (released as HORROR OF DRACULA in the United States), which featured Cushing as Dr. Van Helsing and Lee in his iconic role as Count Dracula. Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee would go on to appear in 22 films together and remained the closest of friends for the rest of their lives. Peter Cushing scored the first lead film role of his career with Hammer’s gothic retelling of Mary Shelley’s classic story FRANKENSTEIN in 1957’s THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN from director Terence Fisher and writer Jimmy Sangster. Cushing portrays the callous Baron Frankenstein, a brilliantly vile and callous genius who brings life to the creature played by Christopher Lee. Lee has the title role in 1959’s THE MUMMY, another Hammer updating of a Universal classic. Cushing is once again paired with Lee and the creative team of director Fisher and writer Sangster returns behind the camera. Tonight’s commercials include spots for the Dark Depository, Antoine Duplaix’s psychic services, the Cozy Corner mall, and season’s greetings from WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio.
