After Mary Shelly and Bram Stoker introduced the world to the genre with their Gothic Novels Frankenstein & Dracula, the supernatural and scary have crept into a significant portion of all forms of art. The horror genre has been around since the beginning stages of film... a logical place for ear;y filmmakers to go, capitalizing on the excitement and adrenaline the audience feels when they are scared! This continued through the Drive-In movie theater era, as well as the VCR tape era. Today more than ever the genre has a firm foothold in the industry. Very profitable and able to be made on the cheap, horror movies are as close to a sure thing that a studio has anymore. In this era of widespread social fear and panic, one would think that the stories being told in this genre may prove more important than ever before. Filmmakers Leland James and Randall Kaplan join Jedi Rob down in the CCD Nerdcave to discuss horror in these current "Dark Times". This one should be fun! ENJOY....
