In Review: The Last Broadcast (1998)

The spooky season is upon us! Naturally, that means it's time for TRAPPO to talk about scary movies! This time around, we wanted to bring some much-needed attention to what is, sadly, a largely forgotten pioneer of the "found footage" genre, 1998's The Last Broadcast, directed by DIY cinematic trailblazers Lance Weiler and Stefan Avalos. We think it's a movie that deserves a reappraisal, and we sincerely hope that you'll give it a chance this Halloween when you're looking for something to watch that will send shivers up your spine. It's currently on SHUDDER, AMC+ and Tubi for your viewing pleasure, so if you haven't already ventured into the Pine Barrens to search for the Jersey Devil with the "Fact or Fiction" crew, take a chance this October. You'll be glad you did.

There's a conversation going on right now at the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE to visit), and we want you, yes YOU, to be a part of it! Head on over to our blog (CLICK HERE) and tell us what you think of The Last Broadcast, share some of your favorite found footage titles, or just tell us what you think of the current state of horror cinema. We'd love to hear your feedback. And if you're feeling more verbose, you can always share that feedback in the form of a long-winded email (CLICK HERE), which is always much appreciated. We're also on BlueSky (CLICK) and Instagram (CLICK) if you're interested in the whole social media thing.

Thanks for listening, and don't forget to join us next week as we share another seasonally appropriate broadcast from our favorite fiends over at 66.6 KTRP...
