I Can't Help Saying Goodbye | Talks from the Darkside

Libby (Loren Cedar) and her choir director fiancé Max (Brian Benben) notice that people keep dying in the presence of her younger sister Karen (Allison Sweeney). It become apparent that Karen can sense when people around her are about to die, and does so by placing her hands on their face and saying "goodbye" to them; however, they think she induces the fatalities, including her parents. In a mix of sorrow, anger, and fear, Libby and Max tell Karen to never say "goodbye" to anyone again, but when Karen ends up "saying goodbye" to Max, Libby takes drastic (and ultimately tragic) measures to solve the problem.Directed by John Strysik and written by Ann MacKenzie & Jule SelboOriginal airdate: October 5, 1986

Night of the Scarecrow (1995) | Movie Dumpster S8 E18

Happy Halloween, Dumpster Dwellers! This week in the Video Dungeon we're digging deep into Night of the Scarecrow (1995), a forgotten ‘90s supernatural slasher that blends small-town revenge, gothic atmosphere, and a killer scarecrow. Directed by Jeff Burr (Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III), this lurid mid-90s horror film that blends rural myth, supernatural vengeance and plenty of practical effects. Buried by poor marketing and doomed to the annals of the Dumpster, is this killer scarecrow flick worth adding to your Halloween watchlist? Dr. Benny Graves of Rue Morgue and Analog Abattoir joins us to breakdown this Jeff Burr joint that's surprisingly not a sequel to an already established franchise!
