Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 12: The Exorcist III

BOOM!!!  This is it folks.  The clock has struck midnight and the last instalment of the Doomsday Clock resonates in harmony with our first ever show.  We've gone full circle and are rounding off things... for now, with another William Peter Blatty film:  The Exorcist III aka. Legion.

This'll be the last 'proper' show for the forseeable future, but we aim to get things running via Skype, once Phil has settled into new-father mode again.  As always thanks for listening and hope you enjoy.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clcok 11: Dust Devil

Bruce Dickinson told us there was two midnights to midnight, but he might have been sketching out Lord Iffy Boatrace at the time.  Fortunately for us, Richard Stanley upped the ante after his marvellous HARDWARE with this extremely unique and visually sumptuous flick.  This ain't no hand-held hoover, this is a DUST DEVIL.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 10: Santa Sangre

We're now in double figures and Doomsday Clock 10 is comprised of arm envy, oedipal rage and Al from Quantum Leap's brother.  Oh yeh, and it's directed by someone called Alejandro Jodorowsky.  It's bloody and could be considered holy, it's Santa Sangre!

Midnight Video: Doomsday Clock 9: Big Trouble in Little China

In the Mouth of Madness was the winner of the listener's choice in our poll, but a close second was this classic slice of Hong Kongesque hokum from Carp and Kurt.  With just three minutes left until midnight, we chop sockey towards Doomsday in the company of Jack Burton and Egg Sheng as they cause Big Trouble in Little China.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 8: Strange Days

Before he became obsessed with a bespectcled child with a scar on his head, Rafe, sorry, Ralph Fiennes starred in a Kathryn Bigelow (with a little help from her now ex, James Cameron) film, which was a dystopian vision influenced by the 'then-times' riots and Rodney King killing in LA.  So, as the clock ticks ever onwards to Doomsday, so do we witness the countdown to a new year to remember in Strange Days.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 7: Nosferatu (1979)

Although time is irrelevant to the undead, we find ourselves celebrating the minute hand striking the 6th minute to Midnight on our Doomsday countdown by taking a look at intrepid and idiosyncratic Bavarian film maker Werner Herzog's remake of F. W. Murnau's iconic Nosferatu.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 6: Tears of the Black Tiger

Verdant, viridian and violently pink: Tears of the Black Tiger is a Thai genre mash up that defies expectations. A musical, western, melodrama with more than touch of the ol' ultraviolence a la Peckinpah; it marks the 7th minute to midnight on our Doomsday Clock countdown.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 5: Tenebrae

As luck would have it Dario Argento is the special guest at this year's Frightfest and like the planets aligning, Midnight Video brings into orbit the moon of Tenebrae casting it's shadow across the face of 80s Rome like the minute hand of the Doomsday Clock.

Midnight Video - Doomsday Clock 4: Stone

This week it's literally a race against the (Doomsday?) clock as we go undercover in one of the toughest Australian biker gangs ever to have graced the silver screen in Sandy Harbutt's frank and refreshing tale of camaraderie and two wheels: Stone.

Doomsday Clock 3: The Wickerman (2006)

Another minute bites the dust as we bring you another instalment of the Doomsday Clock.  

Pretty much universally panned the world over, Neil Labute's 2006 remake of cult British classic The Wickerman gets the Midnight Video treatment, but can we overcome the general consensus and find anything remotely positive about this Cage-rage vehicle?

Doomsday Clock 2: The Brood

It's now 11 minutes to Midnight and this episode sees us boil and blister as our tiny egos are put through the wrangler by psychoplasmic maestro Dr Hal Raglan (Oliver Reed) in David Cronenberg's familial chiller: The Brood.

Doomsday Clock 1: Phantom of the Paradise

As alluded to in our video message, The Doomsday Clock is finally here and it's ticking.
Over the next 12 weeks we will be dissecting a dozen films that have some links to previous shows, in particular our listener's vote.
Beginning the countdown to the film apocalypse is Brian De Palma's extraordinary musical twist on classical horror literature: Phantom of the Paradise.
