NECROMANCER EP 137 – FANBASED: BASKET CASE (1982)
If joining OneofUs.net is joining a cult, call the necromancers true believers because they are ready to love, kill, or die according to the network’s wishes. And what better way is there to honor Bret and Shira’s new home/intentional community than with the theme of cult classics. Bret’s pick, Basket Case, is up first. Will Shira stan Belial? Is the pope Catholic? Listen anyway and then stay for rom com remixes that will have you asking who the real basket case is.
YOUR HOSTS
Shira More (Necromancer, Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Shira grew up in Dallas, TX, and need only put her palm to the ground to sense the direction of a semi-annual sale. She knows a little about a lot of things: Mary Shelley, Survivor (yes it’s still on), Otome Isekai’s, Slavoj Zizek. Is she method acting a supporting character in a Hallmark Christmas movie or is she just extremely undiagnosed? We’ll never know. When Shira’s not campaigning for French Kiss (1995) to finally be on streaming, you’ll find her debating the charming and unsettling similarities between rom coms and horror movies with Bret Dorman on the Necromancer podcast.
Bret Dorman (Necromancer, Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Bret Dorman was forged in the frost-bound realms of Rochester, New York, tempered in the iron winds of Chicago and the marble-shadowed courts of the Greater DC dominion, before casting his banner beneath the blazing sun of Austin, Texas. There he found not only fellowship in the revels of cinema and story, but his fiercest ally and beloved wife, Sonia Santamaria, with whom he roams the wide roads of the world in restless adventure. Though he lends his voice boldly to the chronicles of film with Necromancer Podcast, he is no mere teller of tales — for he has wrought sagas of his own in moving shadow and light, including Godzilla P.I., The World’s Best, and Violence of the Sun. In his hall dwell three cunning feline familiars — Johnny, Tony, and Ringo — and when not questing abroad, he and his companions wage noble battles of wit and strategy in games both tabletop and arcane.
