Silver Linings Playback 112 – H. G. Wells’ War of the Worlds

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For the month of July, they are watching mockbusters.

In 2005, Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi epic War of the Worlds hit theaters. One day before that film hit theaters, The Asylum released this direct-to-DVD version of H.G. Wells’ story starring C. Thomas Howell and Jake Busey.

Theme Song: “Bankin’” by Bronson Scott

Hobo Radio 432 – An unstoppable killing machine

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle are joined by their friends Molly Regan, Andy McIntyre, Erin Fox and Marty McGuire for the fourth annual Hobo Madness tournament.

This year, in honor of Bill Paxton, who squared off against an Alien, Terminator and Predator, and Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla‘s MonsterVerse, they are pitting 16 monsters against each other to crown one ultimate winner. The monsters have been split into two categories – sci-fi and horror – and the match ups have been randomly drawn out of a hat. They are also randomly drawing the location of these battles, using four possible locales – Desert, Snowy Mountain, Island Jungle and Bustling Metropolis.

Does King Kong dream? Does the Predator recognize Arnold Schwarzenegger? Is Jason an unstoppable killing machine? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “… echoes in Eternity” by Laszlo Harsanyi
  • End – “Run Away” by 6 String Opera
