Episode 14: White Zombie (1932)

What Lurks Behind Podcast Zero

After a week’s hiatus, What Lurks Behind Podcast Zero returns with a blast from the past. To start things off, Paul quickly dabbles through some headlines of the past two weeks; a few stories that have piqued his interest. Then your undead host lists off some of the movies he’s taken in over the past two weeks, and adds a Lurker’s Recommendation before traveling back in time to this week’s Main Attraction, and what a flashback it is. This week, What Lurks Behind Podcast Zero dives into a gothic tale of love and deceit; a tale of voodoo and the undead. It is the Bela Lugosi classic that would succeed his 1931 epic Dracula, but nevertheless would deliver one of his most chilling performances of his career. This week’s episode focuses on the Victor Halperin 1932 classic film, WHITE ZOMBIE, starring the Count himself, Bela Lugosi, and the very lovely Madge Bellamy. White Zombie is a movie of death, and tragedy, with a hint of comedy and a devious witch doctor whose employer is quite the villain in his own right. And this week, Paul breaks it all down and ends the episode with a kiss to the thunders of 1965 (you’ll understand when you hear it). So get ready to join in the voodoo spell that just won’t go away, the latest episode of the Next Level Network production of WHAT LURKS BEHIND PODCAST ZERO.
