The Brothers: Investigations (4.3, BBC, 1974)

"Your father founded this company. Why do you want to sell shares to outsiders?"

"Well, as far as I'm concerned, I don't."

"Then why did you allow it to happen? Hammond's has always been a family business. Well, your father would turn in his grave if he knew what you were doing."

"Then Father should have left me in control of it, instead of deliberately arranging the opposite! He didn't trust me, that's what it amounts to. He thought that I needed Brian and David and Jennifer Kingsley, but once they get together my hands are tied."

The TSL's Horror Grindhouse: I Don't Want To Be Born (dir by Peter Sasdy)

The TSL’s Horror Grindhouse: I Don’t Want To Be Born (dir by Peter Sasdy)

“I don’t want to be born!” “That’s too bad, kid!  YOU’RE COMING OUT!” Now, admittedly, that dialogue is never heard in the 1975 British horror film, I Don’t Want To Be Born.  However, if I had heard that particularly exchange in this film, I would not have been surprised.  That’s just the type of movie that I Don’t Want To Be Born is.  It’s a thoroughly ludicrous, totally ridiculous movie and…

LIFEFORCE (1985) – Episode 206 – Decades Of Horror 1980s

“I mean, in a sense, we’re all vampires.” Everyone is draining the life out of everyone else in one way or another? Hmmm, that’s a dark take, but a fair point. Join your faithful Grue-Crew – Chad Hunt, Bill Mulligan, Crystal Cleveland, and Jeff Mohr  – as they drain everything possible from Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce (1985).

Decades of Horror 1980s Episode 206 – Lifeforce (1985)

Join the Crew on the Gruesome Magazine YouTube channel! Subscribe today! And click the alert to get notified of new content! https://youtube.com/gruesomemagazine

A race of space vampires arrives in London and infects the populace, beginning an apocalyptic descent into chaos.

Director: Tobe Hooper

Writers: Dan O’Bannon & Don Jakoby (screenplay); Colin Wilson (from 1976 novel The Space Vampires)

Music: Henry Mancini

Cinematography: Alan Hume (director of photography)

Production Design: John Graysmark

Makeup Department: Nick Maley (makeup effects & prosthetics supervisor)

Visual Effects: John Dykstra (special visual effects)

Selected Cast:

Steve Railsback as Col. Tom Carlsen

Peter Firth as Col. Colin Caine

Frank Finlay as Dr. Hans Fallada

Mathilda May as Space Girl

Patrick Stewart as Dr. Armstrong

Michael Gothard as Dr. Leonard Bukovsky

Nicholas Ball as Roger Derebridge

Aubrey Morris as Sir Percy Heseltine

Nancy Paul as Ellen

John Hallam as Lamson

John Keegan as Guard

Chris Jagger as First Vampire

Bill Malin as Second Vampire

Jerome Willis as Pathologist

Derek Benfield as Physician

John Woodnutt as Metallurgist

John Forbes-Robertson as The Minister

Lifeforce is the first of three films Tobe Hooper made with Canon, followed by Invaders From Mars (1986) and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986). As Bill’s pick, it’s a film he frequently revisits trying to understand the choices made during its making. He’s always liked the film, even while feeling a bit baffled. Chad first read about Lifeforce in Fangoria. He loved how crazy and wild it was when he first saw it and he still does. Chad’s never quite sure what he thinks of Steve Railsback’s performance because to him, he’ll always be the Charles Manson he portrayed in Helter Skelter (1976). The excellent practical and visual effects are what pull Jeff into this movie. 

All three of this episode’s Grue-Crew compare Lifeforce to the feel of Hammer’s Quatermass and the Pit (1967) and indeed, may have been a better picture if Hooper had gone full-Quatermass. And of course, they all agree that Mathilda May is phenomenal at portraying the female vampire with style and grace while spending nearly the entire film unabashedly nude.

For other Decades of Horror discussions of Tobe Hooper films (and Quatermass and the Pit to boot), checkout the following episodes:

Eaten Alive (1976) – Episode 136 – Decades Of Horror 1970s

Salem’s Lot (1979) — Episode 69 — Decades Of Horror 1970s

The Funhouse (1981) — Episode 90 — Decades Of Horror 1980s

Poltergeist (1982) – Episode 106 – Decades Of Horror 1980s

Texas Chainsaw Massacre II (1986) — Episode 81 — Decades Of Horror 1980s

Quatermass And The Pit (1967) – Episode 93 – Decades Of Horror: The Classic Era

If you so desire, at the time of this writing, you can stream Lifeforce from Tubi and PlutoTV with ads, or from various PPV streaming services. If physical media is what trips your trigger, Lifeforce (Collector’s Edition) (4K UHD) is scheduled for release May 24, 2022 from Scream Factory. And let’s face it, it’s always time to revisit Tobe Hooper’s films.

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Crystal will be Vamp (1986), featuring a speechless Grace Jones.

Preview–People have a habit of dying at Jane and Andrew’s country house!

Six people have died suddenly while working at Jane and Andrew’s country house in England. Unfortunate and embarrassing accidents, but when their daughter Sally brings home her fiancé Geoff for the weekend things get really confusing. Is Jane and Andrew’s pleasant country house accident prone or is some suspicious activity going on? Geoff mixes up overheard conversations and mistakenly concludes that the deaths were not accidents but murders. Hysteria takes over when the body count goes up and a body is discovered in the cupboard. Then a visiting vicar passes peacefully away in the garden. Unexpectedly, Geoff’s parents call and for appearances Jane and her sister-in-law persuade Andrew to hide evidence. Geoff begins to think maybe the deaths were just accidents and helps them move the bodies in wheelbarrows. But, he is unaware that one of the bodies has been mistakenly stowed in the trunk of his parents’ car.

"Reasonable from their point of view. I'm sure they have dozens of cases like this."

Uno sforzo congiunto del quale la presidente Lucia Gioia, ringrazia tutti collaboratori, dal Direttore artistico Orietta De Grandis che ha selezionato ancora una volta con cura il cartellone teatrale, al curatore del concorso letterario, Fabio M.Serpilli che sottolinea la necessità di divulgare tra i giovani la cultura del dialetto (purtroppo in vita sono rimasti pochi tra protagonisti e  cultori) e  fino alla base, le formidabili cuoche di Varano che ogni sera garantiscono una offerta gastronomica invidiabile.
