Gruesome Magazine is partnering with the WICKED HORROR TV CHANNEL (https://wickedhorrortv.com/) which now includes video episodes of Decades of Horror 1980s and is available on Roku, AppleTV, Amazon FireTV, AndroidTV, and its online website across all OTT platforms, as well as mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Synopsis: Prologue: a driver has a big surprise with his passenger; Segment 1 – “Time Out”: A bigot hates Jews, Blacks, Arabs, and Asians and is transported to situations where he feels the effects of his hatred; Segment 2 – “Kick the Can”: In a nursing home, the elder inhabitants learn that their minds can keep them young; Segment 3 – “It’s a Good Life”: a traveler hits a boy on a bicycle with her car and takes the boy home.

It’s another double tap for the ’80s Grue-Crew. This time, it’s Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983), first covered by a completely different crew on episode 104 in March 2017. Inspired by Rod Serling’s landmark TV series, the film includes new versions of three classic tales, one new segment, and a loose wraparound. Joe Dante, George Miller, Stephen Spielberg, & John Landis handle the directing chores with a cast including Dan Aykroyd, Albert Brooks, Vic Morrow, Scatman Crothers, Kathleen Quinlan, and many, many more. The film is also shrouded in tragedy and controversy. There will most definitely be plenty to discuss.

At the time of this writing, Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983) is available to stream from Kanopy, Plex, Roku, and multiple PPV sources.

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Chad, will be George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead (1985)! The third entry in Romero’s “Dead” series is a showcase for Joe Pilato’s performance as Captain Rhodes and the special effects magic of Tom Savini et al.
