True Tales of the Illuminati Season 3 IS FULLY FUNDED!!!
Good News, everyone!
Our listeners have blown us away and we have made our 9k funding goal for a third five-episode season of True Tales of the Illuminati, a audio comedy about over-worked, underpaid stooges of the illuminati and their bizarre, pathetic failures to change history as we know it.
There's four new minisodes up on the feed for your listening enjoyment--including Tom Crowley’s (Wooden Overcoats, Victoriocity) The Quibblerman Conundrum, a love letter to 50s sci-fi about an intrepid scientist awakening a ‘terrifying secret’ from ‘space’--which will hopefully tide you over until we release our third season, which will not be about space, but rather, about the Enlightenment. What will Beck, Jackie and Ishmael do when they're exposed to a decadent world of philosophy and monographs? Certainly, they wouldn't prefer reading books, drinking in greenhouses and kissing to a life of meaningless propaganda and drudgery… would they?
Thank you so much to everyone who donated to the crowdfund. Our show is, frankly, lavishly produced for something of its size and we don't run ads--everything we make is 100% listener supported. If you like fast-paced, stupid comedy described as "Inside Job meets The Emperor's New Groove" (Inside Job fact: we were first) we hope you'll give us a listen.
Alright, that’s enough from us, thanks for tolerating all of our posting here this month, and a million thanks to those of you who saw our pleas and decided to support us. We’ll see you soon.
Illuminati, Ollominoto,
The True Tales Team

It's 1963. This new Doctor Who show is "just copying Quatermass"...
It's 1970. Doctor Who is back and it's "just copying James Bond"...
It's 1996. Doctor Who is back and it's "just copying The X-File"s...
It's 2005. Doctor Who is back and it's "just copying Buffy the Vampire Slayer"...
It's 2023. Doctor Who is back and it's "just copying the MCU"...

A young Roger Delgado works to expose an otherworldly conspiracy, as newspaper columnist Hugh Conrad in Quatermass II: The Coming (1.4, BBC, 1955)
#fave spotting#roger delgado#the master#quatermass#doctor who#classic doctor who#delgado!master#quatermass ii#quatermass 2#images are rough i know‚ but that reflects the quality of the material to a degree#that we have complete copies of Quatermass II is a small miracle and to be celebrated#but as a bbc series from 1955 it is understandably in rather poor form as regards picture and sound quality#at least compared to contemporaneous shows from itc or america (largely shot on film)#anyway. what a delight to see young Rog! he's only in this one episode (although he can be seen briefly in the recap at the start of ep 5#and thus sometimes is credited with both) but he's playing a great character‚ a fleet street wonder that Quatermass brings in to try#and spread word about the conspiracy at the heart of the series. it allows Rog to play quite a different figure to the villains and foreign#dignitaries that became his stock in trade later on; he's a wily‚ astute but sceptical figure‚ who wants proof of Quatermass' claims and as#such is exposed to the alien horrors at work (allowing SPOILER for some very good 'battling possession' acting that leads into a truly#great cliffhanger). the serial almost feels like it has a guest of the week‚ with a significant character turning up for one ep only in#most installments‚ including Rupert Davies in the previous episode‚ but i think it's just the way the serial was formatted (and it's not#like Delgado or even Davies were particularly well known actors at this point in their careers)#still it's been fun to revisit. highly recommended for fans of dark and doomy sci fi horror

...images from the lost continent of cult films, b-movies and celluloid dreamscapes
SF films based on TV shows
No! I'm sorry, but the shit you got away back in the sixties just ain't gonna fly these days. No-one's wants to watch some misogynistic a-hole sleep his way around the galaxy. I mean, that guy didn't care if they had tentacles or not!
The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) Thunderbirds Are Go (1966) Doomwatch (1972) Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) Star Trek: First Contact (1996) Lost in Space (1998) The X-Files (1998) My Favorite Martian (1999)

A comic about my earliest memory, scribbled very quickly on printer paper
Behold! An excerpt from the 1957 film Quatermass 2. I don't know whether the take away here is "Don't watch horror films around your baby, it may become a foundational memory"or "It's ok to watch horror films around your baby, they won't know the black gunk is "human pulp"
