Ep. 30: '70-'79 A Decade of Horror Part 1

Screams & Streams

This episode is a testament to the eerie, often hilarious world of cinematic scares we've endured. We're journeying back to the days of Giallo gems and laughable effects, discussing the films that made us laugh, grimace, and occasionally glance over our shoulders. From personal tales of multitasking madness to the engaging discussions sparked by our vibrant listener community, Screams and Streams is more than a show—it's a shared adventure into the heart of horror.
Prepare to be regaled with the absurdity of cat attacks from "The Corpse Grinders" and the iconic villainy of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," as we dissect the good, the bad, and the downright campy. We will discuss statistics from the decade, like body counts, weapons used, and who is the most prolific killer from our films. And let's not forget the critiquing of deaths that range from the subtly chilling in "The Amusement Park" to the outrageous defenestration of "The Exorcist."
As we beckon you into the world where "Deep Red" stands as a quirky standout and "The Devil's Reign" provokes eye rolls, you'll find our reflections on the decade engrossing. Villains of all stripes, from the ineffective to the ludicrous, make their appearances as we reflect on their roles in the genre's landscape. So, whether you're a horror aficionado or simply intrigued by the strangeness of the past, slip on your headphones and join us for a stroll through the shadows of the 1970s horror scene.
