prince of darkness


TRISTAN joins me to REVISIT and cover two of my favorite topics – John Carpenter and the end times.  Luckily, John Carpenter has given us an insight into the end times in his famous trilogy.  I covered the trilogy a few years back, but now that things are buckwyle crazy than they were, we can learn even more from Sutter Cain, the green goo and Kurt Russell.  We’ll look at the Cold War and the thing and its GMO theme, the CERN-ish portal green demon gnostic base matter goo of Prince of Darkness and the Antichrist, and the hell mouth opened up in Mouth of Madness.
 


I’ve wanted to cover the Apocalypse trilogy for a long time now, three classics from legendary director John Carpenter. The Thing has a Cold War setting, while Prince of Darkness appears to predict the arrival of the era of Antichrist. In the Mouth of Madness is a meta=level fourth wall-breaking narrative about the Antichrist’s rule, with Hades coming through the portal. Other esoteric elements also come to the fore, as well shall see…Wednesday evening at 5PM EST!
