CTS_ep 86 From Beyond

Published: June 13, 2017, 6:22 a.m.

Episode 86 is about “From Beyond”(1986), which follows an assistant mad scientist and some other folks back into the lab where all kinds of bad stuff happened to the main mad scientist. Several people who were in or helped make “Re-Animator”(1985) were also in or helped make "From Beyond”, making it feel like an ideal companion piece. Before getting into all that, your hosts talk about things like imagining Ward Cleaver practicing dark science in the attic while Wally and Beaver sleep below. Also covered is Will’s Cronenberg kick, which is ongoing. Will figures that Cronenberg’s movies are mostly positive, just not usually for the main characters. And what would a pre-movie discussion discussion be like without talking about “Fantastic Magic Baby”(1975)? This brings up that fact that Will could fight a whole room full of babies. He’ll just need some time to prepare. Jolyon wonders why the new Mummy character can’t just shuffle around, strangling people now and then. Will tells about that time he found a parking spot right in front of the Sears Tower. And then there’s “From Beyond”. This was made when you could have someone institutionalized by yelling about them. This movie has something for everyone - there are air eels, protruding pineal gland antennae, a resonator and Barbara Crampton in S&M gear! Listen and enjoy the discussion, but keep in mind that if you switch that damned thing on, something will come. And maybe teach us all to laugh about love again.
