One of those shiny nuggets is Richard Band’s fantastic score! Another is Wings Hauser lol. He’s a national treasure and the boys are super excited to celebrate his career.Listen to our interview with Mutant film composer Richard Band now exclusively on our Patreon page!— 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!REDDIT - Join our growing Subreddit community!INSTAGRAM / FACEBOOK - Follow us on social media for updates and announcements!This podcast is part of the BFOP Network— SPONSOR LINKS —Listen to Deadly Debbie's Creepy Files: Apple Podcasts / Spotify / StitcherFollow Deadly Debbie's Creepy Files on social media: Facebook / Instagram

Wes Craven's The People Under The Stairs (1991) Review
The People Under The Stairs (1991) synopsis: “Two adults and a juvenile break into a house occupied by a brother and sister and their stolen children. There, they must fight for their lives.”Starring: Brandon Quintin Adams, Everett McGill, Wendy Robie, Ving Rhames, and Sean WhalenDirector: Wes CravenThis month we dive deep into a nostalgic movie from co-host Corey’s youth: Wes Craven's The People Under The Stairs (1991)! Not only did he and his friends quote the hell out of this cult film when they were kids, but Corey also went to the same high school as Sean Whalen, who played ‘Roach’ (12 or so years behind him). Pretty cool!

WaitesDirector: Walter HillLadies and gentlemen, this is it! This is the big one! The Warriors is co-host Zak’s favorite movie of all time and we’ve been waiting for the right time to review it! You know, we wanted to do something real special for this film. Well, we figured there’s nothing more special than dropping it the same month we are dropping our Thomas G. Waites interview (‘Fox' in The Warriors and 'Windows’ in John Carpenter’s The Thing)!Look for the Thomas G. Waites interview to come out later this month. Till then, we hope you enjoy Zak’s transcription and reading of all the dialogue in The Warriors (kidding… sort of lol)!
