'Night of the Comet' (1984, Dir: Thom Eberhardt)

Hey! Sorry about the break its been a little crazy around here and there lately. THis week Corbs and Ellis talk LIVE AT WORKERS TAP in PORTLAND, OREGON, about 'Night of the Comet,' a sort-of-zombie movie that mixes a bunch of 1980's stuff in a big ol' bowl and serves it to you, the viewer. Topics include: Star Trek First officers, automation's ghost living on in the ruins of human civilization, how great it would be to work as a projectionist in the early 80's, and a maybe-repeat of a conversation about film vs. digital. We also talk at length about 'The Thing,' a famous movie that Corbin just saw for the first time.

Next week's episode is about "THE MAGICIAN," by friend of the program Ingmar Bergman. You can watch it here, on Criterion
