Summary

Lots going on for Episode 18 of Shock Waves! First up, announcement: you can now pre-order the official SHOCK WAVES T-Shirt, courtesy of our friends at Cavity Colors! Your hosts Rob Galluzzo (that's me!), Elric Kane and Rebekah McKendry catch up on all the latest horrors!

First up, Elric and Rob get into a debate over the new BLAIR WITCH, and the franchise as a whole. Rob finally revisited PARANORMAL ACTIVITY after years of avoiding the franchise, and also reports back on the superior "director's cut" of Brian De Palma's RAISING CAIN and the 3 new Stephen King Blu-Ray releases for CAT'S EYE, IT and SALEM'S LOT. Bekah watched PANDORUM, the 1979 STALKER and the 1996 MOBEIUS.

We delve into his humble early years in New York, writing for television, taking full control of his scripts for such films as IT'S ALIVE, Q THE WINGED SERPENT, GOD TOLD ME TO, THE STUFF, how he struck up a friendship with legendary director Sam Fuller, as well as with famed composer Bernard Herrmann and much, much more. He even teases us the plot of his latest script CAFFEINE! Prepare to be captivated by one of the Hollywood greats!
