You heard about eight minutes of that chat last night, and we've got more of it on this podcast.

And stick around as Shawn caught up with Robert Downey Jr. in Dolittle, Jason played retro reviewer with Missing In Action and Witness, and Mike S got his Poirot on with Murder on the Orient Express. Toss in a bit of movie news, the weekend rundown, and some other junk, and you've got t...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the people we meet on this adventure From The Basement is one of the best things about the job. Today I interviewed Andy Palmer, the director of the new horror release Camp Cold Brook. Haven't seen it? Get on it! I reviewed it right here . Andy got his start in reality TV, and made the well-regarded horror/comedy The Funhouse Massacre. He's combined his talents in Camp Cold Brook, which is about a team of TV ghost hunters who investigate a summer camp where bad things happened. The flick is produced by genre icon Joe Dante, and stars scream queen Danielle Harris. We talk the making of Camp Cold Brook, and what it was like working with Dante and Harris. Andy is a fun guy to interview, and has a lot of energy. We had a good time, and I guarantee you'll enjoy listening. When, you ask? How about this Friday at about 6:05 in the P.M., and only on Radio NL 610 AM Kamloops! Stick with us!

How quickly the weeks fly by... but that's OK, because it means it's time once again for a broadcast From The Basement! And Jason and Shawn have a few films to review and discuss when they take to the Radio NL 610 AM airwaves at 6:05 tonight. For one, they're reviewing the new horror film Agramon's Gate from indie director Harley Wallen. It's a little bit of Paranormal Activity, and a little bit of The Exorcist. But is it any good? Stick with us! And stick around as The Basement Boys take in two other genre offerings, VFW starring Stephan Lang and Fred Williamson, and Camp Cold Brook featuring scream queen Danielle Harris. There's also the weekend rundown, which includes new releases Brahms: The Boy 2 and Harrison Ford in The Call of the Wild. Toss in a new review from Mike S and you're ready to tune in via the 610 AM dial or the player to your right. Either way, a good time will be had by all!

There was a point during my watch of Camp Cold Brook where I lost track of the time. You see, I'm usually pretty aware of where I'm at in a film's running time, and how much movie I've got left. The worse the movie, the more aware I am. But I paused Camp Cold Brook so I could grab a drink and realized I had a half hour left. The movie was almost over, and I wasn't ready for things to end. THAT is the sign of a good movie! Sure, there's nothing new or different about Camp Cold Brook. We've seen flicks about reality TV shows going into a haunted setting, only to become victims of the location before. But producer Joe Dante, director Andy Palmer and screenwriter Alex Carl went and did it better than most with a good story (for the type), likeable characters, and some moments of genuine suspense. If you don't have the money for lots of gore and special effects, and you're not looking to go the splatter/exploitation route, this is how you get it d...

Paranormal reality shows still seem to be all the rage these days, despite the genre peaking with Paranormal State almost a decade ago, and that show's demise now years behind us. However, it's still an interesting premise for a horror film. I mean, TV crew explores alleged creepy incident, alleged creepy incident turns out to be real, cue the screaming.
