EPISODE 204: First-Time Filmmakers.
Some directors arrive fully formed, kicking down the door with a debut that rewrites the rules.
In this episode, we rank the first films from some of cinema’s boldest voices:
Charles Laughton’s haunting The Night of the Hunter (1955),
Peter Bogdanovich’s Targets (1968),
Paul Schrader’s blue-collar nightmare Blue Collar (1978),
The Coen Brothers’ breakout Blood Simple (1984),
and Philip Ridley’s surreal The Reflecting Skin (1990).
Five debuts. Five filmmakers announcing themselves to the world.
Which one deserves to be preserved for all time?

SHOCK HORROR: “The Return of the Living Dead Special” (1985–2005)
(Color, 2 hrs.)
Broadcasting after hours from the last video store in the universe, host Jason rises from Spooktacular retirement to kick off Shock Horror with a full-on graveyard party. Joined by Paul (The Slashers, The Countdown), the boys dig up the entire Return of the Living Dead franchise, from punk rock brain-eaters and doomed romance to the cheap sequels that won’t stay buried.
Expect fog machines, local commercials, and more bad decisions than a midnight rental binge.
