#Welcome to night vale joseph fink movie
It’s basically Pulp Fiction if Pulp Fiction were a silly Halloween movie that took place in Ohio. It was one of these ones where the movie company left it on the shelf for years and then put it on a direct-to-DVD release, but it’s fantastic. So much of the language of “Night Vale” comes directly from Deb Olin Unferth - the way she will start paragraphs and end them in a completely different place than you expected.įink: There’s a movie called Trick ‘r Treat that has absolutely nothing to do with “Night Vale,” but it’s a great movie if you’re looking for one. It’s a book that starts very strange and eventually by the end is basically working on dream logic. It’s this book about this guy who is following his wife and discovers that she’s following another guy and ends up following the other guy out of the country to Central America. I read it and I immediately went back to the beginning and I read it again. Lovecraft, David Lynch, and The Twilight Zone, the minds behind “Night Vale” insist their influences are a lot less spooky.įink: I was buying a bunch of cheap books, and it had an interesting cover and I picked it up. And despite numerous comparisons to The X-Files, H.P. It kind of surprised me when people started calling it that,” claims Fink. Yet the podcast’s creators, Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor, who met through experimental theater troupe the New York Neo-Futurists, are not actively trying to freak you out: “‘Night Vale’ was never creepy.
Like the glowing cloud that slowly makes its way across the sky, for example, or the floating cat that just appears one day in the radio station’s restroom. The show takes the form of fictional community-radio broadcasts about the titular town, a place in which odd things happen all the time … and no one seems to care. Near the very top, in fact, an achievement that at first might appear to clash with its oddball, if charming, nature.
“Welcome to Night Vale,” an unusual podcast about an usual town, is also unusually high on the podcast charts.
