Description

Pete and Trevor saw two of the greatest horror sci-fi movies ever made. We did a double-header of David Cronenberg’s The Fly (1986) and John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982). It’s Jeff Goldblum versus Kurt Russell, Brundlefly versus The Thing from Another World, in an epic showdown of body horror, special effects, and possibly the best use of makeup ever. Listen in for our immediate reaction to these two classics.

This is also week three of our ongoing project to watch every Aardman feature and short film. This week we are talking ‘Chicken Run’, Aardman’s first feature, directed by Nick Park and Peter Lord. We encourage everyone to watch along with us and check in each episode for our dedicated Aardman segment. Go to https://boxd.it/BQYVu for the watchlist. Next week we will be discussing Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.
