Welcome spooks, specters, ghosts, goblins, astral travelers, and inter-dimensional beings from the Planet X! You are tuned into THE LATE NIGHT FRIGHT, broadcasting live every week from WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio right here from spaceship Earth!
Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready to howl at the moon because we have a terrifying one for you this evening!
January is dedicated to pitting films against one another with similar themes. Tonight's films are both remakes of classic slasher films in the horror canon.
First up is 2006's BLACK CHRISTMAS, a remake of the 1974 Bob Clark proto-slasher classic. Katie Cassidy (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET remake, ARROW), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (DEATH PROOF, THE THING), Michelle Tratchenberg (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, EUROTRIP), Lacey Chabert (MEAN GIRLS, PARTY OF FIVE) and Andrea Martin (the original BLACK CHRISTMAS, SCTV, MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING) star in this offering to the horror gods from writer/director Glen Morgan (WILLARD remake).
Tonight's second film is 2008's remake of the 1980 Jamie Lee Curtis classic PROM NIGHT from director Nelson McCormack ( THE STEPFATHER remake, PRISON BREAK). An obsessed former teacher (Johnathon Schaech, THAT THING YOU DO, LEGENDS OF TOMORROW) has escaped from prison and is stalking his high school crush (Brittany Snow, PITCH PERFECT trilogy, HAIRSPRAY). Scott Porter (FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS), Jessica Stroup (TED) and Idris Elba (THOR trilogy, STAR TREK BEYOND) costar.
Tonight's films are being rated in four categories: overall film, killer, victims/kills and does it hold a candle to the original. In lieu of stars, BLACK CHRISTMAS will be awarded obscene phone calls and PROM NIGHT will be awarded tiaras.
Commercials include spots for The Evangelical Vegan, Cozy Corner's premier vegan restaurant and a vintage spot for Time Life's Mysteries Of The Unknowns book series. Also included are the film's original theatrical trailers.
As always, be sure to stay tuned for all the fake news not fit to print!
