GHOSTWOOD 104: "Urban Legend" Is Up!

 
"Brenda, please! You need to get help!"
"I have already tried therapy! Obviously, it did me no good, Natalie!"
-- Natalie Simon and Brenda Bates, Urban Legend

It is happening again...My co-host with the most Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Ghostwood: The Twin Peaks Podcast!  This time, we continue our retrospective of Twin Peaks Actors in Other Films by discussing Urban Legend, the 1998 slasher horror film directed by Jamie Blanks, starring Alicia Witt as Natalie Simon, Jared Leto as Paul Gardner, Rebecca Gayheart as Brenda Bates, and Robert Englund as Professor William Wexler!

LET'S ROCK!

In this episode, Xan, and I discuss things like our cats deciding where to hang out, Xan buying a big 10' x 10' blanket, Xan actually remembering to bring doughnuts to our podcast, Alicia Witt being our featured Twin Peaks actor in another film, the two David Lynch film vets in Urban Legend, the three heavy-hitters of horror in Urban Legend, Urban Legend jumping on the Scream bandwagon, my rooting for the killer over the asshole college students, Brenda being too fixated on her "urban legend" murder theme, Jared Leto as Morbius the Living Vampire in Morbius and Niander Wallace in Blade Runner 2049, Tara Reid in the Sharknado TV movies, Michael Rosenbaum looking weird with hair after playing Lex Luthor on Smallville, Joshua Jackson on Dawson's Creek and Fringe, Jason winning over Freddy Krueger in Freddy Vs. Jason, the three actresses who turned down the role of Natalie Simon before Alicia Witt, Sarah Michelle Gellar backing out of the role of Sasha, everyone in the movie having the same winter jacket, the tragic real-life story of Rebecca Gayheart fatally hitting a young boy with her car, the Pam Grier movie that Reese Wilson watches in Urban Legend, Parker majoring in Asshole, Brenda being ignored by Paul for Paul, the urban legend with Mikey from the Life cereal commercials and Pop Rocks, wondering how Brenda lifted Damon on top of the car, Xan feeling bad for Natalie's Goth roommate Tosh, wondering why Natalie would go to sleep in the same room while Tosh is supposedly having sex, the urban legend about flashing your headlights at night, Brenda going full slasher villain, wondering why both Natalie and Paul left Reese bleeding out alone instead of one of them staying behind while the other got help, my upcoming interview with Doom Patrol writer/producer Shoshana Sachi on TitanTalk: The Titans Podcast, Harry Dean Stanton in Repo Man, and more!
