Elitist Bastards: Of Vampires and Tyler Perry

In this week’s Elitist Bastards Go To The Movies podcast, Mountain Xpress film critics Ken Hanke and Justin Souther chat about current releases Due Date, For Colored Girls, Megamind, Nowhere Boy and The Tillman Story. They also discuss classic silent horror film Nosferatu (this week’s Thursday Horror Picture Show) and the 2000 film which was inspired by it, Shadow of the Vampire (next week’s Asheville Film Society screening). And if that wasn’t enough, the duo also wax speculative on soon-to-be-released films Conviction, Unstoppable, Morning Glory, Skyline, Four Lions and Inside Job.

Podcast produced/cohered by Steve Shanafelt for MountainX.com. The theme music is “1832” by E. Lee. Artwork by Jeremy Dylan. The Elitist Bastards podcast is also available on the iTunes store as a free download. Click here to join the Elitist Bastards Facebook fan page.
