The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue aka Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (1974) synopsis: “A cop chases two hippies suspected of a series of Manson family-like murders; unbeknownst to him, the real culprits are the living dead, brought to life with a hunger for human flesh by ultrasonic radiation being used for pest control.”Starring: Cristina Galbó, Ray Lovelock, Arthur Kennedy, and Jeannine MestreDirector: Jorge GrauThis week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue! Yes, the film has other names, a lot of them, in fact, but this is the one the boys know it as so that’s what we’re calling it lol! Now that we got that out of the way, Zak and Corey are really excited to breakdown and review, Manchester Morgue. A film that both hosts love because, like Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things, it inhabits and interesting time in zombie movie history: A time before all the rules were really locked in by George Romero with Dawn of the Dead in 1978.Keep the conversation going and let us know what you think of The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue on our Patreon page or social media!— SUPPORT PODCASTING AFTER DARK —PATREON - Two extra shows a month including Wrap-Up After Dark and The Carpenter Factor, plus 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!This podcast is part of the BFOP Network

A Roger Corman produced film that’s so much better than it has any right to be. And if you think Don Keith Opper only plays dimwitted handymen, like he did in Critters, then you are in for a surprise! He’s a tour de force in Android, and that says a lot considering he’s co-starring with Klaus Kiniski! A huge THANK YOU to Cam for selecting Android for us to review via our Patreon page!

80s Kids Unite L.A. Comic Con Panel
Hey, PADsters! Here’s the audio from the 80s Kids Unite panel that Corey, Zak, and Diallo from Podcasting After Dark & TV Obscura did with Dustin Rubin and Paul London from Two Dollar Late Fee & Territory Marks! It was a packed house and a great crowd. We cleaned up the audio the best we could but it was recorded in an open room so don’t expect studio-quality sound lol!This also serves as an introduction to a new monthly series that will be dropping on both the PAD and Two Dollar Late Fee feeds called, you guessed it, 80s Kids Unite!

Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 (1987) Review
Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 (1987) synopsis: “The now-adult Ricky talks to a psychiatrist about how he became a murderer after his brother, Billy, died, which leads back to Mother Superior.”Starring: Eric Freeman, James Newman, Darrel Guilbeau, and Elizabeth KaitanDirector: Lee HarryGarbage Day! This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak and Corey review Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2! If you listened to our breakdown of SNDN Part 1 last year, you knew this was coming. I mean, how could it not? Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 is a quintessential cult classic. What it lacks in the music department (nothing beats “The Warm Side of the Door” from Part 1) it more than makes up for in pure zaniness. Also, Eric Freeman is a goddamn studfarm, and you can quote us on that!Leave a comment on our social media pages or Patreon and let us know what you think of this episode or the movie itself.
