Magic (w/ Felipe Sobreiro)
It's time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights, it’s time to insult the audience on the Corky and Fats Show tonight! That’s right, we’re continuing our evil doll coverage by putting a spotlight on the 1978 ventriloquy thriller, MAGIC. Here to help us by talking as we drink a glass of water is the artist behind Ahoy Comics’ The Toxic Avenger vs. the Noxious Offender, Felipe Sobreiro. Along the way, we debate Anthony Hopkins’ unconvincing American accent, delve into why pop culture was obsessed with ventriloquists in the 70s, wonder if this isn’t just a secret Psycho remake, and explore the killer five-minute scene that makes this movie worth watching. All this, plus overinvolved cab drivers, terrifying left turns, dummy mugging, Rich Little hatred, Psycho remakes, profuse sweating, terrorist declarations, and a showstopping edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure. We give this showbiz the business this week on Kill By Kill!
