    2024/09/11
    Tonight we’re chatting with Libby Cudmore, whose neo-noir thriller NEGATIVE GIRL comes out this month, September 10 from Datura Books. S.A. Cosby called it "fantastic" and “…a sharp subversive exploration of the PI novel that elevates the genre while never sacrificing the thrills." Libby is a Shamus and Black Orchid award winner and author of the acclaimed novel The Big Rewind. Her Wade and Jacks stories have appeared in Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine, Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, Tough and the Anthony-nominated anthology Lawyers, Guns & Money: Crime Fiction Inspired by The Music of Warren Zevon (co-edited with Art Taylor). She is also the current co-host of the OST Party and Misbehavin' podcasts and the creator and host of the #RecordSaturday live-tween series, spinning an array of old and new vinyl in a weekly interactive conversation.
    About the book: Upstate New York. Former rock star, recovering addict and now private investigator, Martin Wade, and his assistant, Valerie Jacks, are hired by a young woman who wants them to deliver a warning to her overbearing father. But neither realize their new client’s father is an old bandmate of Martin’s. A man still burdened with regret at being thrown out of Martin’s group, The French Letters, almost two decades before. When their young client is found dead on a riverbank, duty, nostalgia and a lifetime of guilt find Martin and Valerie on the case, searching for the young woman’s killer. As the mystery begins to unravel, Martin struggles to hold onto his sobriety while Valerie becomes increasingly obsessed with their murdered client – finding correlation in the secrets, and the scars they’ve all tried to hide.

    ABOUT HAUNT SWEET HOME:
    Fixer Upper meets Ghost Adventures in the reality TV show at the center of HAUNT SWEET HOME by award-winning queer author Sarah Pinsker (on-sale Sep. 3; Tordotcom), where the crafty night-shift crew manufactures “hauntings'' to spook homeowners and capture their ratings-boosting screams. However, these staged scares unfold into an unnerving reality for the show’s aimless production assistant Mara when the lines blur between practical effects and paranormal activity—and her stumbling journey through adulthood is given an unanticipated push by an unlikely ally.

  • The Pit and the Pendulum (1961) - Podcast/Discussion
    2024/08/28
    This week we have a look at the 1961 horror film The Pit and the Pendulum. This is Episode #441! The Pit and the Pendulum is a 1961 horror film directed by Roger Corman, starring Vincent Price, Barbara Steele, John Kerr, and Luana Anders. The screenplay by Richard Matheson was loosely inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's 1842 short story of the same name. Set in sixteenth-century Spain, the story is about a young Englishman who visits a foreboding castle to investigate his sister's mysterious death. After a series of horrific revelations, apparently ghostly appearances and violent deaths, the young man becomes strapped to the titular torture device by his lunatic brother-in-law during the film's climactic sequence.The film was the second title in the popular series of Poe adaptations released by American International Pictures, the first having been Corman's House of Usher released the previous year. Like House, the film features widescreen cinematography by Floyd Crosby, sets designed by art director Daniel Haller, and a film score composed by Les Baxter. A critical and box-office hit, Pit's success convinced AIP and Corman to continue adapting Poe stories for another six films, five of them starring Price. The series ended in 1964 with the release of The Tomb of Ligeia.
