The Vibe Episode Revisted

While trying to avoid using up our bandwidth at the Podomatic page as well as create new-old content, I put The Vibe episode on YouTube. Fans of Hello! This is the Doomed Show often cite episode 3 as one of their favorites and that really blows me away. I often neglect the old episodes just because Brad and I were so new to podcasting and we tended to record VERY LONG and the audio quality was pretty lousy. Not to mention we were still nervous as fudge. However, the passion behind this nearly 3 hour ep is impossible to deny and man oh man, we made some epic lists here. So check it out if you haven't before. Also, I typed up everything we talked about in case you don't want to listen! Bam. That's amazing. Thanks to me.

  2. It might be self evident, but this article by you was useful in pinpointing movies with the vibe.

    I also find this interview with Jack Shear, who is a professor of Gothic and Decadent literature, quite interesting.
    And I quote, "My favorite elements of any Gothic tale are the moments of absurdity. Horror tales are a dime a dozen, but what sets the Gothic apart is its propensity to get really weird, to skirt the line between sublime terror and overwrought, and potentially laughable, excesses.
    It might very well be that filmmakers like Franco, Klimovsky, Freda etc are going for this absurdity in their films and what we get is "VIBE". Howerver it gets there I'm now fascinated by it and thanks to you for pointing it out.
