Outro: “Disorder” – Joy Division

EWB 396 FROM THE VAULT: Herzog's Bad Lieutenant

This week we’re going back a few years, back to the Vault.  Randy Larsen and I were doing a sub-series called Road to Ruin where we discussed records and movies that we iconic to us.  Apparently, doing Werner Herzog’s Bad Lieutenant was my idea.  Abel Ferrara’s grimey, depraved exploration of a NYC detective’s descent into darkness is one of my all-time favorite movies of the 90”s.

 

But what about Herzog’s version?

 

Intro:    “All the Dark Things” – Mike Hill

Outro: “Tokyo Express” – Die Haute feat. Nick Cave

EWB 391 THE BLACK LODGE 1

Welcome the the flagship episode of The Black Lodge, my collaboration with Brandon Legion of Horror Wolf 666. Inspired by the passing of David Lynch, one of the greatest American filmmakers of our generation, we are going to dive deep into the Twin Peaks series.  In 1990, there was nothing quite like Twin Peaks, it was groundbreaking and a harbinger of an explosion in thought-provoking television that would happen two decades later.  We cover the pilot episode this week, exploring the darkness beneath the plaid small town of Twin Peaks, the fictitious town nestled in the forests of the Pacific Northwest.

Stay tuned for future monthly episodes on Everything Went Black and Horror Wolf 666.

Intro:   “Twin Peaks Theme” – Andrew Badalamenti
Outro:  “Falling” –Julee Cruise
