We kick off season 2 with an exploration into the absurd. Our guest, multi Bram Stoker Award Winner, professor of Writing Popular Fiction at  Seton Hill University, and Mentor to our co-host, EV Knight, Dr Mike Arnzen leads the way with a prompt we never could have come up with on our own. We get into a couple different variants on the idea of the Toys For Tots boxes that can be found all over the place leading into the holiday season and what else they might be doing there. If this episode teaches you anything, it’s that no idea is too weird to look into, and that once you do get weird, the fun part can be figuring out how to tie it all back in to real life somehow. Enjoy our first foray into guests on the show! Season 2 has more on the schedule and we are immensely excited to bring them to you!

Toys for Tots wsg Dr Mike Arnzen

The 2nd half of James and Luke’s conversation with their special guest-host, 4x Bram Stoker Award winning writer Mike Arnzen, all about John Carpenter’s 1982 sci-fi horror classic, The Thing. Topics include: Trying to track the disease vectors in the film, debating at what point Blair turns, theories about who could’ve destroyed the blood, just how the CPR arm-biting scene was able to be so shocking, what makes the iconic wire-in-the-blood test so compelling, and the rampant breakdowns in communication throughout. They end by proposing what themes and social commentaries could be suggested by the movie, what the film’s legacy is today, and why people still watching and talking about this movie 35 years later.

Ep-13 Ink to Film: The Thing (1982) part two ft. Mike Arnzen

Award-winning horror writer Mike Arnzen joins Luke and James as Ink to Film’s first special-guest-host to discuss John Carpenter’s 1982 sci-fi horror classic, The Thing. In part one of their conversation they touch what the film might say about masculinity in the 80s, the incredible practical effects on display and what modern movie-makers might learn from them, the unreal dog acting, the underlying themes of the primitive vs technology and how that differs from the novella, and discuss the enduring legacy of the cult classic.
