Deep Rising (1998) Review
Deep Rising (1998) synopsis: “A group of heavily armed hijackers board a luxury ocean liner in the South Pacific Ocean to loot it, only to do battle with a series of large-sized, tentacled, man-eating sea creatures who had already invaded the ship.”Starring: Treat Williams, Famke Janssen, Wes Studi, and Kevin J. O'ConnorDirector: Stephen SommersThis week on Podcasting After Dark, Corey breaks down one of his favorite late-90s creature features, Stephen Sommers’ Deep Rising! A really fun sea monster movie that’s unfortunately dated by some pretty bad CGI. That doesn’t stop the boys from having a blast reviewing this cult film, though! Deep Rising holds up well in 2022 thanks to its stellar cast and fast pacing, and is still worth a viewing if you’ve never seen it before (or if it’s been 20+ years since you have).And speaking of Deep Rising’s stellar cast, this is the first half of our two-part Treat Williams marathon! Look for us to break down and review the classic 80s zombie cop movie, Dead Heat in a couple weeks!— SUPPORT PODCASTING AFTER DARK —PATREON - Two extra shows a month, including our celebrity interview series, plus videos and other exclusive content!MERCH STORE - We have a fully dedicated merch store at TeePublic with multiple designs and products!INSTAGRAM / FACEBOOK / LETTERBOXD - Follow us on social media for updates and announcements!Purchase 7 WINTERS ALONE on Amazon: HARDCOVER / PAPERBACK / KINDLEThis podcast is part of the BFOP Network

Deadly Force (1983) Review
Deadly Force (1983) synopsis: “Stoney Cooper, a former Los Angeles police officer, is at a low point in his life. Kicked off the force because of his anti-authority attitude, he now ekes out a living as a freelancer in New York. All this changes when the daughter of an old friend is killed by a serial killer terrorizing L.A. Although almost nobody in his old home town is happy to see him back, Cooper pledges to bring the killer to justice before any more innocent people die.”Starring: Wings Hauser, Joyce Ingalls, Paul Shenar, and Al RuscioDirector: Paul AaronThis week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak breaks down another cult classic Wings Hauser film, Deadly Force! Much to Corey’s amazement, it’s everything he ever wanted Vice Squad and L.A. Bounty to be. And, much to both of our intrepid host’s amazement, it might just be the best Wings Hauser movie they’ve covered on the show thus far (including Mutant)! So what makes Deadly Force so damn good? You’ll have to listen to the episode to find out, but we can tell you one thing- you will hear co-host Corey singing. Whether or not that’s a good thing we’ll let you all decide lol!— SUPPORT PODCASTING AFTER DARK —PATREON - Two extra shows a month, including our celebrity interview series, plus videos and other exclusive content!MERCH STORE - We have a fully dedicated merch store at TeePublic with multiple designs and products!INSTAGRAM / FACEBOOK / LETTERBOXD - Follow us on social media for updates and announcements!Purchase 7 WINTERS ALONE on Amazon: HARDCOVER / PAPERBACK / KINDLEThis podcast is part of the BFOP Network
