The Dark Corner hosts a Haunted House Party. That is, we review The House With a Clock In Its Walls and The Haunting of Hill House. For instance, we show how Clock in the Walls precedes Harry Potter. Furthermore, we discuss the more creepy aspects of the film such as the use of the occult. Additionally, we show how the re-imaging of Hill House is unlike the book or the classic film. Therefore, we focus on the family in the film. Also, we look at acting and direction, particularly in episode 6 of the Netflix television series.
Brandi and Dave touch on comedy improv. For instance, Dave fails to record a Brave & Dandi Show. We perform at a library. Also, Dave does comedy improv at a wedding. Meanwhile, the bride performs capoeira moves in a wedding dress.
Dave recommends a new podcast, Commentary Club featuring Jim and Theresa. Commentary Club is a show that comments on classic, cult and crap films as you watch. Subscribe and listen while you watch Ghost Watch this Halloween.
Brandi cracks open an issue of Asgardians of the Galaxy in Comics Corner. She relates the bare bones plot. However, she also explains to Dave the characters, Throg and Kevin.
The Dark Track is House by (((S))) from Welcome to the Heartland. (((S))) is a post punk band from Denmark. Meanwhile, House is a creepy song with staccato drums and jangly guitar.
Dave shouts out Chelsea for offering free tickets to The House With a Clock In Its Walls. Also, he wishes her the best as she takes a month off from Dungeons & Dragons for nanowrimo. Following that, Brandi shouts out Eric for performing comedy improv with us. Eric plays trumpet for local ska band, Scheming Thieves.
