Fulci - The Yellow Films
For episode 8 of Hello! This is the Doomed Show, Brad and I start the first of our four episodes on Lucio Fulci. In this spoiler-free episode, we talk exclusively about his contributions to the giallo genre. There are some pretty bizarre outtakes on this one. Listen closely or at a distance. Films covered in this episode: One on Top of the Other AKA Perversion Story, A Lizard in a Woman's Skin, Don't Torture a Duckling, Seven Notes in Black, New York Ripper, and Murder Rock: Dancing Death.
And just so you know, these episodes will not happen consecutively. Brad and I are going to have non-Fulci episodes in between these to break things up because we're weirdos and stuff. Here's how the Fulci-themed episodes are going to go:
1. Fulci - The Yellow Films (A Lizard in a Woman's Skin, The Psychic, etc.)
2. Fulci - The Golden Age (The Beyond, Zombie, The Black Cat, etc.)
3. Fulci - The Other Side of Lucio Fulci (Contraband, Conquest, Four of the Apocalypse, etc.)
4. Fulci - More Horrors (House of Clocks, Manhattan Baby, Demonia, etc.)
You can download or listen to episode 8 at Podomatic.
Or you can download it from Mediafire.

Listening right now. I wanna come over to your place for a moviethon.
ReplyDelete@Justin - Duder, get your ass over here. We can rock the friggin' Fulci. And I have a huge pile of giallos I haven't seen yet.
ReplyDeleteI have a huge pile of unwatched giallos, too. Together I bet we'd have enough for a week long giallothon.
ReplyDelete@Justin - I have ideas for a weeklong moviethon but have neither the vacation time nor the courage to do it.
ReplyDeleteIf you ever do, hit me up.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Brad: SEVEN NOTES IN BLACK is my favorite Fulci gialli. Least favorite: Murder Rock. Speaking of which, I can't believe you failed to mention MURDER ROCK's awesome alternate title, "Giallo a Disco"! I still haven't seen NEW YORK RIPPER yet. Keep up the great work, fellas. By the way, I will be reviewing TEEN WITCH just for you, Richard.
ReplyDeleteSurely Fulci's gialli should be deemed 'The Golden Age', Richard?
ReplyDeleteHis gore epics are underwhelmingly silly sideshow farces.
(Runs for cover.) ;)
Great idea, looking forward to all the episodes!

@Aaron - Thanks! Brad says thanks too, man. I forgot all about Giallo a Disco, damn it. New York Ripper is a must see. It's a grindhouse giallo classic. Very scuzzy. I look forward to your Teen Witch coverage. Feel free to pick something wretched for me to review, duder.
ReplyDelete@Davo - I do love his gialli but for me, his zombie flicks and even Black Cat all took place in the man's finest hour. And I think they are overwhelmingly silly!
@MLP - We'll do our best, captain. Thanks!
The podcast of podcasts! -- Entertaining from the first moments to the very friggin' last! Looking forward to the next three parts on The Fulc!!

I just finished this episode (I'm in the middle of my exams right now and behind with all of my fun stuff) and enjoyed it a lot! It's cool to have you guys connect the dots for me since I don't know too much about these films. It's great fun!
