Victor Pemberton
À propos de cet audio
A trio of terrifying radio tales starring Roger Delgado, Vincent Price and Honor Blackman.
Author, playwright and TV producer Victor Pemberton was probably best known as a script editor and writer for Doctor Who, and as the inventor of the Doctor's trademark sonic screwdriver. But he also created numerous dramas for radio, among them the three cult classics included here.
The Slide: in the Kent new town of Redlow, the residents are shocked by a sudden earthquake. But a worse subterranean threat is still to emerge. When a torrent of mud oozes from the fissure and the local wildlife begins to die, expert seismologist Professor Gomez is called in. His analysis reveals the awful truth: the mud is sentient, intelligent - and lethal.... Roger Delgado and Maurice Denham star in this thrilling seven-part sci-fi serial.
Night of the Wolf: March, 1883, and a monster is on the loose in the East Anglian Fens.... Concerned about his missing son, Robert, Judge Mathew Deacon travels from Pennysylvania to Cambridge to find out what has become of him. His inquiries lead him to the remote Northcott Manor, deep in the marsh country, where he finds a family hiding dark secrets - and comes face to face with a werewolf.... This Gothic horror play stars Vincent Price and Coral Browne.
Dark: Virginia's lover was murdered and her husband hanged. Then, years later, inexplicable events occur in the room where the murder took place. Summoned to investigate, medium Simon Elliott becomes possessed by people from the past. Can the dead really return to exert control over the living? Honor Blackman, Bessie Love and Nigel Anthony star in this suspenseful paranormal thriller.

Wacky but entertaining
The voices are superb in this trilogy of BBC Radio Plays that were written by long-time senior editor and writer for Dr. Who, Victor Pemberton…who, for what it’s worth, invented the Good Doctor’s sonic screwdriver.
Two of the premises are sound: an American father looks for his son who’s gone missing in spooky rural England; and, a woman hires a medium to see if her haunted attic is cursed by her late husband or the man he murdered. But the third? Mud bubbling up after unheard-of earthquakes in England is not only sentient, but wants to kill the Sun!?!?
No matter which of the three, however, the drama is wild, the dialogue is wacky, and the sound-effects and screams are ear-splitting. Of course, as I told my girlfriend: these were meant to be listened to while sitting around the radio for a good jump-scare, so the audio abuse was never supposed to blast you directly in the cochlea via a pair of earbuds. But I digress.
Despite all three stories being plagued by innumerable plot holes and some sloppy rush-endings, they all circle back around to “so bad it’s good.” While they’re a ton of schlocky fun, please be aware that “DARK” gets very dark and is loaded with triggers.
