Step inside The Ghostly Gallery Podcast as we take you on a chilling journey back to the summer of 1985, a golden era for horror fans. In this special episode, we’re joined by horror historian and composer Kirk Hazen to sink our teeth into two cult classics celebrating their 40th anniversaries: Tom Holland’s stylish vampire tale Fright Night and George Romero’s intense and gory Day of the Dead.
We explore unforgettable performances and the groundbreaking special effects that cemented these films in horror history. From Chris Sarandon’s suave yet sinister Jerry Dandrige to Evil Ed’s tragic transformation, to Tom Savini’s jaw-dropping zombie carnage, we relive the scares, laughs, and practical effects magic that defined mid-80s horror.
Whether you’re a devoted genre fan or just discovering these classics, this episode blends nostalgia, insight, and lively debate, all with a healthy dose of blood, brains, and 80s screams.
