The Casebook of Eddie Brewer Give Away

Eddie_Brewer_PosterThe Casebook of Eddie Brewer is an upcoming Shock-O-Rama release and we have four copies to give away courtesy of Alternative Cinema.

Ian Brooker is superb in the titular role: A paranormal investigator being trailed by a documentary crew. Eddie’s been at this for over 30-years and is none-too impressed by the “new-school” investigators out there nor the debunker that has been hounding him for almost two decades.

As Eddie investigates two cases, one a girl who may be possessed by a malevolent force and the other a crumbling Eighteenth-century building that may be haunted, he is forced to confront his beliefs and even his sanity in the face of mounting terror.

Written and directed by Andrew Spencer, The Casebook of Eddie Brewer eschews gore and CGI in favor of old-school atmosphere, tension and suspense and is all the better for it. The film is legitimately scary and one hopes to see more of the adventures of Eddie Brewer in the future.

The Hilarious House of Frightenstein: An Interview with Mitch Markowitz

hilarious-house-of-frightensteinOn this REALLY AWFUL MOVIES PODCAST  Mitch Markowitz, the associate producer, head writer and one of the stars (Super Hippy, The Mosquito) of The Hilarious House of Frightenstein, talks about the humble origins of the seminal show in Hamilton, Ontario (think Pittsburgh, but less glamorous) and how it became an unlikely, long-running, multi-generational global hit (and not just with high college students!)

Mitch talks about the inspiration for Austin Powers’ Mini Me character and how he enlisted the help of Toronto Ryerson University students to write the show.

Talk also focuses on penning sight gags for kids, puppetry, South African accents, how the legendary Vincent Price became involved with the show and how elements of it were improvised.

And of course, there’s a discussion about Count Frightenstein, Igor, The Wolfman, The Professor and the incredible cast of characters that made the show as memorable as it was.
