Firestarter (2022)

We're BACK -- and sooner, rather than later! After wrapping up
the show proper, we promised to check back in any time there was
a good reason to do so, and the recent release of
Firestarter is exactly that! Why, you
ask? Well, most importantly, the Stephen King adaptation features
a brand new score composed by none other than John Carpenter, and
it features his regular collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel
Davies from his album, soundtrack, and live concert projects.
Plus, the film was written by Halloween
Kills scribe Scott Teems, and -- as we're sure
you've heard us talk about -- back in the early 80s, Carpenter
himself was originally tapped to direct the earlier
Firestarter film that ended up in the
hands of another director.  So, those were more than enough
reasons for Chris and Nick to get back into the saddle and revive
the show for what we hope is the first of MANY returns to the
Carpenter-centric conversation! So, join us for this "bonus"
episode, and please check out our new podcast, The
Shuddering, when it launches very soon!
