The Fog (1980)

Hello gents, just catching up with the recent posts. Definitely would love a weekly live show. I already watch VCR Party Live on YouTube every Tuesday night from the Found Footage Festival and it's really fun to have appointment viewing where we get to chat with other fans while also engaging the creators. It would be really fun to watch you guys hang up on morons while discussing a movie. There's just something electric about the high wire act of recording live, I guess. Anyway, keep up the great work.

I submit the ultimate Scream King™️: DONALD PLEASENCE

Yes live show, please!

Love the live show idea, most seem to happen pretty late in est though

Great episode! I love when you guys go script doctor mode, I learn a lot. Also, Stanger's John Carpenter impersonation is really good.

Love yalls

U guys are killing it! Request for oktooky is "waxwork" Request for reg is "the first power"

Just saw Carpenter perform. Still ending the show with the Christine line. Great show.

What’s the song!

Adrienne Barbeau is in the movie and Stanger doesn’t mention Swamp Thing once.

I’m in on the live show

Would enjoy a live radio show I'm welcome to any and all abz content. Only issue would be you would have to interact with us more.

Barbara Crampton immediately came to mind wrt the female Bruce Campbell.

Christopher Lee for Scream King?

Live shows! Hell yeah, even if it was quarterly, I’d tune in.

live call in would be incredible RIP Stangerbot

I think when the doughboys take calls they do it really well. I do feel like making sure that everyone feels like they have a time limit during their call of like 30 to 90 seconds is pretty good. I also think it's smart where they go listener calls in, leaves a voicemai l and then they call the listener back if the voicemail is interesting

Stanger..The island was Molokai...in Kalaupapa area.

I am pro live show and am gonna go ahead and say Wanted for shadow wolves would rock

Clutched my pearls a bit at The Fog hate, but my one and only time seeing it was in October at an outdoor screening in Texas where they would pipe actual fog machine fog in throughout the movie, so it’s a juiced up memory. I do consider it and Hooper’s Salem’s Lot to be more cozy asmr horror though. Something to soak up when you’re at an Airbnb in the middle of nowhere with no internet and it’s one of the complimentary DVDs lying next to the TV. Would dig a live show and recommend a time where people are likely to be home to listen and enjoy. 7pm on a Tuesday kinda shit.

I’m way behind (on The Dead Zone), but Ben has been having fun with looking up what topped the box office the year/month the films were released. Wanted to recommend The Box Office Game (https://boxofficega.me). Every day gives you a new date and you have to guess the top 5 films in theaters. You can get clues, but it knocks off your total points. Very fun, pod has helped me do pretty well. It stinks when you get a more recent year, but if you donate to the creator you have access to the past 3 years and can pick and choose. Anyway, worth a look if you’re into that sorta thing!

I kind of think the only point of doing a live stream is to interact with fans in the moment and that is seemingly the explicit nightmare of this show’s hosts

Fuck it, we're doing it live! Seriously though, a live show would be awesome.

The Fog . Love a movie build up but fell asleep (I’ll have to get back to ya) Paul Scheer’s book “Joyful Recollections of Trauma “ was a great Listen. Action Boy Live Radio is a yes . I’d definitely call in.

Hollywood Handbook used to do live call-in shows, always funny but I think it was a lot of stress on the boys given their psycho fanbase. The Janitors are much more normal.

I heard Gabrus says “Jaws 50th” so I figured this is a perfect time….I was born June 18, 1975, two days before Jaws opened, so the movie has always been a part of my birthday tradition. For my 50th birthday this year I went to Martha’s Vineyard for the big Jaws 50th celebration. I went to Jeffrey Voorees’ pub The Wharf (he played the boy killed, Alex Kintler). One of the funniest parts of the night was the movie was playing in the pub and the scene where Jefferey (Alex) gets killed, he just started pointing and laughing. We all started clapping and cheering as blood is bursting out in that scene. Richard Dreyfuss was there too and he started singing “Show me the way to go home” during the scene. The 2 boys with the fake fin were there and they said they accidentally broke the shark one night when they and friends snuck onto the dock and started playing on Bruce. And when one kid hung off its jaw, the jaw popped and they ran home and never told the production. Also a guy and his son made a replica ORCA boat and Dreyfuss went it and sat at the table and sang the song again.

If you guys did it live, I’d like you to do it in the old Stern format for one gimmick episode. I just don’t know how quickly that could get old after awhile.?

DO IT LIVE

I’ve been in the radio business for 30 years and I barely listen to the radio myself anymore. I miss a good live broadcast. I’d kill to hear your guys do some live shows.

I think the priest is of a denomination where clergy could get married. Probably Episcopalian or Presbyterian. They have the name and the collar and everything but can have kids and whatnot.

Shit, I bought an in person ticket for tonight. Anyone local want it? Posted in the discord. Either way, enjoy the extra cash ABZ!

I enjoy The Fog.

I would prefer if the live shows didnt take over the normal ones. I think when its live, the vibe is naturally more performative instead of casual/relaxed. Also I like how calls are kept to Shadow Wolves cause it makes me uncomfortable hearin listeners trying to be funny or when they have an air of "I hope i become a fave of the podcasters & they say good things about me". But if it makes podcasting more fun for the ABZs, I think its def worth it & i'd still enjoy it for sure

Oh da ferg? I leerrv da ferg!

Not many scream kings from a protagonist standpoint, but my mind went to Jeffrey Combs and to a lesser extent Brad Dourif. Currently, Patrick Wilson might be one, and Kyle Gallner seems to only be in horror movies

Scream king, the titular Dr.Mordrid - Jeffrey Combs

Scream King - Justin Long. That dude's been in so many great horror movies.

I hope when the Boyz travel together they all sleep in the same bed like Alvin and the Chipmunks

I'll be waiting for Action Boyz Radio 📻

I don't want to presume, but I feel like the "burglar fell and sued the homeowner" story was probably the bit in "Liar Liar". https://youtu.be/D9O13rLaPsQ?si=87rH_nOKHQ11kLUl

One million percent broadcast the show live

Great start to Octooky, boys.

I would 100% tune into a live show. I did during the pandemic. I am doing it tonight.

I have a must-watch shockingtober recommendation for all boyz and boyz-at-heart - Oddity (2024) a horror film stuffed with great ideas and great execution that probably cost 2 dollars to make and still looks incredible. Google says it's currently streaming on Hulu, but I'm not sure if that's via like an additional channel add-on. If you like it, check out Caveat (2020) by the same writer/director. His next movie will star podcaster extraordinaire, Adam Scott.

Update for 2025, my preschooler came home and said she learned the Hokey Pokey in gym today.

This movie is fine if all you want is 70's background ambiance but hell, Garfield's Halloween Adventure is a scarier pirate ghost story.

My favorite scream King is Stephen

I can’t tell if they forgot Gabrus basically had a live call in radio show on Spotify

Ben’s fix for The Fog turning it into a one woman show set at the radio station is the plot of the Canadian horror movie Pontypool. It’s a good little flick if anyone is looking for something for their 31 for 31.

I can't believe Gabrus said that Myst was a Sierra game. I'm personally contacting the university that's overseeing his PhD dissertation on video games to complain.

Hell yeah

She’s got…. Suite Judy Blue Eyes

Live stuff would be awesome!! Scheer and Huebel do live stream stuff and Tim Hecker’s office hours is a perfect example of live stuff that’s hilarious. I’d watch/listen :)

👍 I love the idea of a live-streaming ABZ tier but I feel like you guys would get annoyed with the people who feel the need to call in each week faster than the discord, haha. A live chat is probably a better option. That way you could ignore/moderate anyone you don’t want to engage with.

Seeing JC in concert this Thursday

Action Boy Radio is a great idea, but live radio needs sponsorship, that’s a fact. It’s time for ABZ supplements and meal delivery service to get going. The Stanger Kitchen diet plan could sell very little food for lots and lots of money.

Shalia Tire

Tom Atkins son is in this?

This is a comfort watch for me.

MY FAVORITE TIME OF THE YEAR!!!! OCT-OOKY!!!

Can confirm that listening to this pod on Monday mornings, particularly when movie is boring and they go off topic a lot, feels very much like AM talk radio. I love it.

Rodgers should write a spoof pulp novel of hard-boiled cop that lives in a house boat that’s stuck in a big tree, and has to solve some crazy mystery.

Less than 2.5 hours episode? Is it broken into 2 parts?

Dough boys idea: Stanger is the guest and he eats one whole mango 🥭

Was very relieved to immediately find out they did not like this movie. People try to juice this thing but it is boring as hell and seems stitched together.

I'll never watch The Fog again

This is my vote for the live show

I always forget about the transition from sportztember to octooky. It’s my favorite seasons.

I swear I didn’t look it up but isn’t Norris in Return of the Dragon? It’s one of the early ones that is called like 5 different titles. Also it’s wild the Boyz haven’t done any Lee except Enter and the shit show that is Game of Dearh.

I want action boyz live radio show! Check out streamyard webinars. I use it for work. https://streamyard.com/streamyard-on-air

"da harrah boys"

This movie relaxes me

I'd 100% tune in to ABZ live, with video or even just old school audio. I live on the other side of the county and even still the Action Boyz live at Dynasty Typewriter is an event I watch live.

Why are you guys pretending you want to have MORE interactions with listeners? I give it a 50/50 chance the zodiac killer calls in live. So yes I'd definitely watch/listen.

Thank you!

Another week in the Banana Republic of America (aka Val Verde North).

Depending on when in the day the live streams would be scheduled I’d tune in for sure

We're drifting towards sub 2 hour episodes. Now that's SPOOKY!
