Mystery/thriller month continues with Brian DePalma's 1981 masterpiece BLOW OUT, starring everyone's favorite Sweat Hog Vinnie Barbarino (aka John Travolta).
Barbarino plays sound effects man Jack Terry, witness to a political assassination. Barbarino is joined by a stellar cast including Nancy Allen (Robocop, Carrie), John Lithgow (3rd Rock From The Sun), and Dennis Franz (NYPD Blue). This criminally overlooked film combines elements of Hitchcock and the Italian genre giallo (slasher/psychological horror/crime fiction) and may just be Barbarino's greatest on screen performance.
Rear Window...
Play Misty For Me...
...and now Blow Out.
Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready to howl at the moon. It's time for the LATE NIGHT FRIGHT!

Mystery/thriller month continues on the Late Night Fright!
As a prelude to Brian DePalma's classic 1981 thriller BLOW OUT starring John Travolta, we take a look at his most recent offering, 2019's THE FANATIC from writer/director and former Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst.
This much maligned film deals with the character of Moose (Travolta), an unbalanced Hollywood street performer who has an unhealthy obsession with movie star Hunter Dunbar (Devon Sawa). Travolta goes out on a limb in a performance that must be seen to be believed.
Critics and internet movie reviewers have not been kind to this one. Tune in to find out what our hosts have to say about it! Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready for some poppycock...it's time for the LATE NIGHT FRIGHT!
