This Week in Horror History | Godzilla, The Craft & Found Footage Horror History (April 27 — May 3)
This Week in Horror History for April 27–May 3 dives into a packed week of monster movies, vampire cinema, Stephen King adaptations, teen witch horror, found-footage terror, fake true crime, and killer-plant science fiction.
Inside this episode:
April 27, 1956 — Godzilla, King of the Monsters!: The American cut that helped turn Japan’s atomic monster into a worldwide horror icon, reshaping Gojira for U.S. audiences and introducing countless viewers to Godzilla’s radioactive roar, city-smashing spectacle, and nuclear-age creature-feature terror.
Where to watch (U.S., this week): Criterion Channel and Cinemax channels; rentable on Apple TV.
April 29, 1983 — The Hunger: Tony Scott’s stylish vampire cult film, starring Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, and Susan Sarandon in a cold, glamorous nightmare about immortality, obsession, desire, aging, and the terrible fine print of living forever.
Where to watch (U.S., this week): Tubi and Hoopla; rentable on Amazon Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
May 1, 1987 — Creepshow 2: Stephen King and George Romero return to EC Comics-style anthology horror with “Old Chief Wood’nhead,” “The Raft,” and “The Hitchhiker,” delivering revenge horror, lake terror, roadside dread, comic-book punishment, and one of the nastiest killer-blob sequences of the decade.
Where to watch (U.S., this week): Prime Video, Prime Video with Ads, Shout! Factory Amazon Channel, Roku Channel, Pluto TV, and Prime Video Free with Ads; rentable on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
May 3, 1996 — The Craft: The definitive ’90s teen witch horror classic, starring Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, and Rachel True, turning pain, power, outsider identity, high school revenge, black-lipstick rebellion, and occult coming-of-age horror into one of the most enduring cult favorites of the decade.
Where to watch (U.S., this week): rentable on Amazon Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and Plex.
Deep-Cut Spotlight — April 27, 2007: The Poughkeepsie Tapes: A fake true-crime found-footage nightmare that premiered at Tribeca, vanished into distribution limbo, leaked into horror fandom, and built its reputation like a cursed tape passed hand to hand. Its disturbing mockumentary approach still feels like evidence the audience was never supposed to see.
Where to watch (U.S., this week): Prime Video; free with ads on Tubi and the Roku Channel.
Birthday Roll: Lisa Wilcox, Carolyn Jones, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Kirsten Dunst.
Weekly Recommendation — The Day of the Triffids (1963): A pulpy science-fiction horror apocalypse in which a meteor shower blinds much of humanity and the natural world starts moving in for the kill.
From Godzilla’s radioactive legacy and The Hunger’s gothic vampire glamour to Creepshow 2’s anthology horror, The Craft’s teen witch cult status, The Poughkeepsie Tapes’ faux-true-crime dread, and The Day of the Triffids’ killer-plant apocalypse, this episode tracks an unusually varied week in horror history.

1
00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:05.040
Spring is doing that little trick where it looks gentle
2
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:09.240
from a distance. The flowers are out, the trees are
3
00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:13.560
waking up, the sun is hanging around a little longer,
4
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:18.800
and Horror being Horror looks at all that fresh life
5
00:00:18.879 --> 00:00:24.679
and says, perfect, let's contaminate it. This week, we've got
6
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:28.960
a monster born from the Bomb, a vampire movie dressed
7
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:32.840
like a perfume ad and behaving like a death sentence,
8
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:37.520
a comic book sequel where the lake itself wants a snack,
9
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:42.759
a coven of teenage witches turning pain into power, and
10
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.560
a found footage nightmare that feels less like a movie
11
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:59.119
and more like evidence you were never meant to see.
12
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:05.719
Welcome back to this Week in Horror History, your weekly
13
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:11.480
time machine through the creepiest anniversaries in film, TV, books,
14
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.200
and video games. I'm your host, Enrique Kuto, and tonight,
15
00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:21.519
we're covering April twenty seventh through May third. Coming up,
16
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:26.439
the American cut that helped turn Godzilla into a worldwide
17
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:32.200
movie Monster, a high style vampire film where immortality comes
18
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:36.920
with a terrible little footnote. A Stephen King and George
19
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:42.359
Romero anthology sequel with oil slicks, and roadside Ghosts and
20
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.280
the teen Witch cult classic that made an entire generation
21
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:52.439
whisper we are the weirdos, mister. Then after the break,
22
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:59.200
our deep cut Spotlight, a fake true crime documentary that premiered, vanished, leaked,
23
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:04.159
and built its reputation like a cursed cape. Past hand
24
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:13.199
to Hand. April twenty seventh, nineteen fifty six, Godzilla, King
25
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:18.199
of the Monsters, releases in the United States and the
26
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:24.919
world's most famous radioactive reptile begins his second life. See
27
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:28.319
what I did there. This is not simply Gojira with
28
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:33.879
subtitles or a simple dub. It is the recut American
29
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:38.599
version built around new footage with Raymond Burr as reporter
30
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:44.400
Steve Martin. Reshaping is shiro Honda's postwar nuclear nightmare into
31
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:50.280
something United States audiences could enter more easily. For many viewers,
32
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:54.240
this was the doorway a city crushed under a walking
33
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:59.639
mushroom cloud, a monster made of trauma and spectacle, A
34
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:03.360
film that affected me so greatly as a kid. Godzilla
35
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.319
was about my favorite thing in the world in my
36
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:10.479
early life. In fact, Godzilla versus the Sea Monster still
37
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:14.360
sticks out in my head often in any day, even
38
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:19.280
when there's no giant reptile anywhere nearby. If you want
39
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:23.120
to catch up with your favorite fire breathing friend, you
40
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:27.000
can find it streaming on the Criterion Channel and Cinemax,
41
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:31.439
with rental and purchase options on Apple TV, Fandango at Home,
42
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:37.000
and Amazon Prime. Any Godzilla movie is worth a revisit,
43
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:41.120
even the ones where he does the silly dances. Actually
44
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:45.960
those are my favorite ones too, or rewatch again and again.
45
00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:53.919
April twenty ninth, nineteen eighty three, The Hunger slides into
46
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:59.800
theaters wearing sunglasses indoors and Vampire Cinema gets a blast
47
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:07.080
of perfume, smoke, silk, and decay. Tony Scott's feature debut
48
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:12.439
gives us Catherine Daneuve as an ancient vampire, David Bowie
49
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:17.120
as her doomed companion, and Susan Sarandon as the doctor
50
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:22.360
pulled into their gorgeous little death machine. The horror is
51
00:04:22.439 --> 00:04:27.079
not that you'll die. The horror is that someone promised
52
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:31.560
you forever, then forgot to mention that forever does not
53
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:37.800
necessarily mean young. It grossed about twelve point three million
54
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:44.000
dollars worldwide, and its afterlife has been enormous, especially in
55
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:49.279
goth queer and style obsessed horror circles. If you want
56
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:53.160
to take a walk on the thirsty side. You can
57
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:56.040
give the film a watch free with ads on two
58
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.920
B TV or free with a library card on Hoopla,
59
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.279
And of course you can rent or purchase it digitally
60
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:11.560
on Amazon Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at home. Oh man,
61
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:15.040
now we're tapping into a real sweet spot in my
62
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:20.920
childhood horror viewing. On May one, nineteen eighty seven, Creep
63
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:26.519
Show two lurches into theaters, carrying the ec comics torch
64
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:33.040
with three nasty little campfire burns. There's old Chief Woodenhead,
65
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.480
who I have a massive soft spot for, where a
66
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:40.959
wooden statue comes to life for revenge, the raft which
67
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:45.120
turns a peaceful lake into a floating panic attack, and
68
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:48.800
the one that induced the most nightmares in my childhood,
69
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:53.360
The Hitchhiker, where the worst person on the road discovers
70
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:59.560
some victims do not stay down just because you drove away.
71
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:04.399
Thanks for the ride, lady, Thanks for the ride. It
72
00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:07.560
is a bit leaner than the original Creep Show, but
73
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:11.959
the comic panel nastiness is still there. And I think
74
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:16.560
this one is massively, massively underrated. It did not have
75
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.800
a screenplay from Stephen King This Go Around, and it
76
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:24.279
wasn't directed by George A. Romero, but it was written
77
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:29.759
by George Romero based on short stories by Stephen King, which, honestly,
78
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:32.399
if that's not good enough for you, I don't know
79
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:35.759
what is. And it was directed by long time George
80
00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:40.680
Romero cinematographer Michael Gornick, who, in my opinion, did a
81
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:43.879
more than serviceable job of making the film look great
82
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:49.279
and having lots and lots of atmosphere to spare, making
83
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:53.720
that creep show vibe pop whenever necessary to accentuate the
84
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:57.720
madness and horror. I really do love this movie. It
85
00:06:57.879 --> 00:06:59.680
scared the hell out of me when I was a kid.
86
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.319
I saw it on cable, and then years later I
87
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:05.079
revisited it, and every time I watch it, I just
88
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:09.480
go goddamn. Creep Show two is a hoot. At the
89
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.399
box office, it didn't do terrible. It made about fourteen
90
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:17.639
million dollars on a reported budget of roughly four million.
91
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:20.120
If you want to give it a watch, whether it's
92
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.519
for the first time or as a much needed revisit,
93
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.879
It's streaming on Prime Video, Prime Video with ads, the
94
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.879
Sheut Factory channel on Amazon as well as free with
95
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:35.519
ads on Roku Channel, Pluto TV, and Prime Video Free
96
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.160
with ads. You can also, of course rent or buy
97
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.519
it on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at home. I
98
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:45.680
really do recommend, if you're into physical media, the four
99
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:49.399
K release from Aero Video. It's a proud piece on
100
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:56.759
my collection shelf. This next one pairs perfectly with The Hunger,
101
00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:00.240
which spoke to the goth scene, especially on home video
102
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:04.519
in the nineties. On May third, nineteen ninety six, The
103
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:09.319
Craft opens in US theaters and Teen Horror gets a
104
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:14.839
black lipstick spellbook all its own. Robin Tunney, Feruza, Bulk,
105
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.879
Nev Campbell, and Rachel True play four girls who find
106
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:26.000
each other through pain, anger, loneliness, and inevitably power. What
107
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:29.680
makes it last is that it's not just teen witches
108
00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:33.360
doing spooky things, although they do a lot of that,
109
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:37.480
and it is a really good time. It's about wounded
110
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:42.840
people being handed power before they're healed enough to understand
111
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:46.679
how to wield it. And it really was a massive,
112
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:51.519
massive influence on my entire generation, that's for sure. I
113
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:53.639
had a sister who was a few years older than
114
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.519
me who was obsessed with the Craft, and I enjoyed
115
00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:59.759
watching it too, and not just because I was developing
116
00:08:59.799 --> 00:09:04.080
a pensiont for goth girls, although I'm sure that played
117
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:07.399
a bit of a role. It was also a surprise
118
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.399
hit at the box office fifty five point six million
119
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.600
dollars worldwide on a fifteen million dollar budget, quickly becoming
120
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:20.559
a cult classic on home video that never really left
121
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:25.559
the sleepover rotation for high school and middle school girls.
122
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.879
If you want to give the craft a revisit or
123
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:32.120
see it for the first time, it's available to rent
124
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:35.840
or buy at the usual suspects, Amazon Video, Apple TV,
125
00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:43.120
and Fandango at home. There are some doors you should
126
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:48.039
never open. Tomorrow, on Weekly Spooky, We're heading into an
127
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:52.039
old house with a basement that feels all wrong from
128
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.519
the moment the light switch clicks on. Curtis Tucker is
129
00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:00.159
just a kid trying to be brave. He hates the base,
130
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:04.720
the cold concrete, the flickering bulb, and the damp smell,
131
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.279
plus the feeling that something could be hiding just out
132
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:13.120
of sight. But when his father tells him the strange
133
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.879
wooden shed in the corner was once connected to hidden
134
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:22.919
tunnels beneath the house, curiosity starts digging its hooks in.
135
00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:28.879
But late one rainy night, Curtis decides to face his fear.
136
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:34.559
He goes downstairs, he opens the shed, he finds the latter,
137
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.639
and then he crawls into the dark. What he discovers
138
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.960
on the other side isn't a ghost story. It isn't
139
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:50.600
a childhood nightmare. It's something worse. Because sometimes the scariest
140
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:54.120
thing about an old tunnel isn't what might crawl into
141
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:57.519
your house. It's where you might end up when you
142
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:02.679
crawl out. That's right here on Weekly Spooky Don't miss
143
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:08.120
Come On In by Morgan Moore, a chilling story of fear, curiosity,
144
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:14.279
hidden passages, and the terrible things waiting beneath ordinary homes.
145
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:19.879
So lock the basement door, my spookies, and make sure
146
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:27.120
you're subscribed. All right, spookies, quick breather. But when we
147
00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:31.240
come back, we're going into our deep cut Spotlight from
148
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.159
April twenty seventh, two thousand and seven. It's a horror
149
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:39.159
movie that practically became an urban legend because so many
150
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:42.480
people heard about it before they could actually see it.
151
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:46.440
And once you do, you understand why it felt like
152
00:11:46.559 --> 00:12:06.960
something that escaped. Welcome back the creepy calendar is waiting.
153
00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:12.720
On April twenty seventh, two thousand and seven, The Poughkeepsie
154
00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:17.720
Tapes premiered at Tribeca Film Festival and then began one
155
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:22.279
of the stranger released sagas in modern found footage horror.
156
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:28.440
The premise is almost cruelly simple. Investigators raid a house
157
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.399
in Poughkeepsie, New York and discover hundreds of videotapes documenting
158
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:40.159
years of abduction, torture, murder, and psychological destruction. The movie
159
00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:45.039
presents itself like a true crime documentary, complete with interviews,
160
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:49.559
forensic language, and tape excerpts that feel like evidence in
161
00:12:49.639 --> 00:12:53.080
a case you should not be allowed to watch alone.
162
00:12:53.679 --> 00:12:57.679
The Poughkeepsie Tapes is not scary because it looks slick
163
00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:04.960
and atmospheric. It's scary because it looks wrong, awkward, clinical, degraded,
164
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.759
like a training video that got locked in a cabinet
165
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:12.240
because everyone who watched it needed well a minute afterwards.
166
00:13:12.759 --> 00:13:15.960
It was scheduled for a two thousand and eight theatrical
167
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.639
release through MGM, but then it was pulled. A rough
168
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:26.600
cut circulated online. A brief VOD appearance came and went years,
169
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:30.759
passed by by the time Screen Factory finally released it
170
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:35.159
on Blu ray and DVD in twenty seventeen. The film's
171
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.840
distribution Limbo had become part of the ever growing legend
172
00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:45.759
that has a serious effect Because found footage thrives on uncertainty.
173
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:49.360
The best entries make you feel like the screen is
174
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:55.279
almost contaminated, that by watching it you are somehow participating.
175
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:00.919
This one gives you shelves, labels, interviews, and people trying
176
00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:05.639
to understand what evil left behind after it walked out
177
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:08.399
the door. So if you want to see what the
178
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.600
hype is all about, it's streaming right now with your

glad you did, or you might really not be. Now,
184
00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:38.759
let's light a candle for some spooky birthdays. First up,
185
00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:42.840
a personal favorite of mine. Born on April twenty seventh,
186
00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:48.399
nineteen sixty four, Lisa Wilcox, most famous for being Alice
187
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:51.519
Johnson in a Nightmare on Elm Street four and five,
188
00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:56.120
one of the franchise's most memorable final girl figures. And
189
00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:59.799
the only final girl to show up in two con
190
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.879
executive Nightmare on Elm Street Films to fight the man himself,
191
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:08.919
Freddy Krueger. I've always loved Freddy Krueger movies immensely. I
192
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:12.039
did an entire podcast for over a year about the
193
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:16.919
Freddy's Nightmares TV series. This is just ultimate horror comfort
194
00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:20.639
food for me, and Alice was one of my favorite heroines.
195
00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:27.960
So Happy Birthday, Lisa Wilcox born on April twenty eighth,
196
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:35.120
nineteen thirty. Carolyn Jones the immortal Mortitia Adams, bringing elegance,
197
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:40.639
dead pan comedy, and a gothic glamour to TV horror history.
198
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:45.200
She'll never be forgotten. Many have come close, but nothing
199
00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:51.799
can beat the original. Happy Birthday, Carolyn Jones born on
200
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:58.200
April twenty ninth, nineteen fifty eight. Michelle Pfeiffer genre adjacent darkness,
201
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:01.840
from the Witches of Eastwick to What Lies Beneath and
202
00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:05.759
Dark Shadows. Michelle Pfeiffer has had a major influence on
203
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:10.120
pretty much all of cinema and horror is no exception.
204
00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:16.320
A very Happy Birthday, Michelle Pfeifer. And finally, on April thirtieth,
205
00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:22.279
nineteen eighty two, Kirsten Dunst is born. She's unforgettable as
206
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:27.559
Cloudia in Interview with the Vampire, turning childhood tragedy into
207
00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:32.759
one of nineties gothic horror's most haunting performances. And let's
208
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:38.639
not even get into Melancholia woolf Happy Birthday, Kirsten Dunst.
209
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:45.799
This week for our then and Now bite, where changing
210
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:51.120
costumes without changing appetite Nineteen fifty six gives us the
211
00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:56.879
Atomic Monster Exported and Unleashed on a Wider World. Nineteen
212
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:01.279

213
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:06.640

214
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:12.359

And in two thousand and seven we get horror as
216
00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:20.240

theaters around late April and early May in nineteen sixty three.
222
00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:50.039
It turns a meteor shower into the beginning of the end.
223
00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:55.319
Most of humanity wakes up blind and then the plants
224
00:17:55.839 --> 00:18:00.839
start moving. That's the absolute horror joy of it. It
225
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:06.319
takes something harmless, greenery, gardens, the natural world waking up
226
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.960
and makes it truly predatory. So if you want to
