FOREVER MIDNIGHT - Horror Movie Podcast.

We're back in the studio for VHS-2 of Stephen King's "The Shining" - the Mick Garris-directed, made-for-television shit-show starring that flycatching, bowl-cutted nobuddy as Danny and that asshole from 'Wings' as Jack Torrance. Maybe something actually happens in the second half of this piece of trash? Probably not. We're joined again by the homey Shane Goepel, Co-Owner of HenHouse Brewing Company and Drummer in Polar Bears - a legend on two fronts! Also, a true mensch amongst mensches for enduring this full-blown grueller with us. Take your medicine, you pup - it's Part 2 of… "The Shaning"

Inviting Horror Fan, Musician & Brewer, Shane Goepel to co-host Forever Midnight with us is a celebration of our nearly two decades of friendship, and something the FM3 have wanted to do for a very long time. Not-so-coincidentally, Shane is Co-Owner of HenHouse Brewing Company in Sonoma County, who (as part of their 'Conspiracy IPA' series) are releasing a pair of 'Shining' themed beers this week: "Kubrick's Landing", and its session beer companion, "Hedge Maze." What better way to really dissect "The Shining" - one of our culture's most treasured scary stories? Well, a better way would have been to watch the original, but instead, we chose Mick Garris & Stephen King's made-for-television adaptation of "The Shining" for this epic 2-part episode. So crack a cold one, and join us for the VHS-1 of… "The Shaning." 

It's a beautiful, warm, sunny Sommar's day... what could possibly go wrong? Well, we're about to find out as we tackle Ari Aster's newest kick to the nuts, 'Midsommar' (2019) - a breakup film that promises a lot more push for the tush than your average creepy cult flick.

Part Bush-Era morality tale, and part Anti-Road-Dome-PSA, 1996's "Thinner" is on the waning arc of quality when it comes to Stephen King film adaptations. Nevertheless, the FM3 tuck their napkins into their collars and hunker down for a heapin' helpin' of Gypsy magic and misdirected anger as Tom Holland serves us a fat slice of Richard Bachman pie! Plus, to wet your appetites, we've prepared a teenaged-Josh phone call for an hors d'eouvre …from back when he was… Thinner

It's morning time for the FM3 and we're gearing up to put our whole mouth around a hot cup of The Stuff. Enough is never enough of us talking about -  yep, you guessed it... The Stuff (1985), and when we're done, you'll be left "wanting mo." (*wink wink).

How do you do? Forever Midnight feels it would be a little unkind to present this episode without just a word of friendly warning. We're about to unfold the story of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994), a story of man who had big ideas but piss-poor dexterity, and nary a shirt in sight. I think it will thrill you. It may shock you. It might even horrify you. So if any of you feel that you do not care to subject your nerves to such a strain, now is your chance to, uh... Well, we've warned you.

We are dropping a big fat jack-o-lantern on your head with this one. In the style of some more classic FM episodes from the past. This episode covers not 1... or 2... but 3 movies!!! Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988), Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989) & Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995). So get comfortable and enjoy our treats you mark ass tricks, cuz this is a long one. Happy "halfway to" Halloween, y'all! 

In this episode, the FM3 go to see a remake of the movie that ironically warned us in 1989 that "sometimes dead is better." And, like many of the story's characters, we knew better... and STILL wandered over the deadfall only to end up in the remake of 'Pet Sematary'. The dudes send this shit-show off into the great beyond, hopefully never to be watched again.
