Ep 44 - Wait Until Dark
We continue our apartment horror discussion this week with WAIT UNTIL DARK. Raphael makes the case for this being not being a thriller but horror, & Raquel seems to agree. We can also mark this as another film that terrified her when it first came out. And isnt Alan Arkin just the coolest looking creep in this?? For a movie with no special effects this somehow still begs to be seen in the theatre. Is this Audrey Hepburns best role? It’s her best cast role, for sure. Three cheers for one of the most underrated psychological horror films of the 60s! The Generation Splice is film podcast where retired psychologist Dr. Raquel Martinez, a Baby Boomer through & through, & her son Raphael Jose Martinez, a cranky millennial punk rocker/film writer, discuss various films through the lens of their generation & personal experiences. Every week one host picks a movie to dissect & see if they can splice together the generation gap via their love of film. Feel free to write to us! Give us some film suggestions at thegenerationsplice@gmail.com or @gensplicepod on Twitter. Raphael is on Twitter at @citycelluloid. You can find his film writing at cinefile.info and film-cred.com
