The House on Haunted Hill Commentary stands as the Dark Corner Podcast‘s next Halloween episode. That is, we speak at length about this public domain film. For instance, we offer insight and trivia. However, we riff as well. Additionally, we present news and reviews. Also, Dj Evil Dave presents a dark track of the episode.
News and Reviews
First, we see Alien on the big screen. Specifically, we describe seeing it at the cinema for its 40th anniversary. For instance, we talk about the sound design and the atmosphere of this haunted house in space movie. Also, we speak on the merits of the cast and direction. Additionally, we watch All Elite Wrestling. Precisely, we talk about what sets it apart from other wrestling programs.
The Dark Track
DJ Evil Dave presents the Dark Track. That is, Miserylab performs Appeal to Fears. Miserylab features Porl King of Rosetta Stone. Primarily, Porl founded Miserylab so he could present more political music. As such, Appeal to Fears showcases political lyrics against traditionally dark wave music.
How Did This Get Made
Next, we promote a fellow podcast. That is, How Did This Get Made discusses bad movies, often in front of a live audience. Hosts, Paul, Jason and June provide their comedic talents to interrogating infamously bad films.

Finally, we talk over this classic William Castle film starring Vincent Price. For example, we indicate when the actors break the fourth wall. Also, we appreciate the performances and highlight when the script shines. However, we also point out its flaws. For instance, we point out implausible moments. Meanwhile, we poke holes in what is a pretty elaborate scheme. Mostly, we enjoy this campy murder plot that inspired the haunted house attractions we see today.
