Last night on Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner, the unlikely convergence of Hippie Roy, Fran and Peter La Fleur from “Dodgeball,” and Edgar Allan Poe resulted in a spirited conversation about “Fright Night” (1985).
Okay, so it’s not exactly Steve Allen.
Thanks to Mike and Marybeth from SciFi Distilled for joining us for this fourth-annual Halloween crossover celebration. It’s been archived here.
This month turned out to be a crazy one, full of cancellations and postponements, so that none of the October shows wound up airing during our usual Friday night time slot, but instead got pushed back to Sundays. I guess we needed the added protection of the Sabbath.
One of the weekends had to be cancelled altogether, so we’ll be playing catch-up next week with a 50th anniversary discussion of “The Exorcist” (1973). That will be on Friday evening, November 3, at 7:00 EDT. With the protection of All Saints, will we finally shake the Exorcist Curse?
I realize I’ve been pretty lax about follow-up posts this month, so here are links to this year’s other Halloween-oriented episodes:
“Burnt Offerings” (10/1)
“An American Werewolf in London” (10/15)
M&M’s “SciFi Distilled,” ordinarily seen on Wednesdays, will present a special episode this Tuesday, Halloween night, at 7:00 EDT.

Of course, Roy and I hope to see you in the comments section for “The Exorcist.” Have your Ouija boards on hand, when we livestream on Facebook, YouTube, etc., this Friday evening at 7:00 EDT!
