Join James Kline and J.H. Alison as Retro Blood continues It Came From Outer Space Month: Part 2 with the bizarre sci-fi horror comedy TerrorVision—a movie where an alien monster gets beamed into a swinger family's satellite dish and all hell breaks loose!
The boys kick off with their quick thoughts on the film and a debate on horror comedy—what works, what doesn’t, and why this one’s… something else.
Then it’s time for the Retro Blood History Segment, diving into what was happening on the movie's release date, February 14, 1986:
In Pro Wrestling, the legendary Big Gold Belt debuts in NWA, with Ric Flair defending against Barry Windham in Florida Championship Wrestling.
In Metal, Alison highlights W.A.S.P.’s release of “Wild Child,” tying it perfectly to the character “O.D.” from the movie repping a W.A.S.P. shirt and attitude.
They then dig into the production of TerrorVision, including:
Director Ted Nicolaou, producer Charles Band, and the Empire Pictures / Full Moon legacy
The film’s ultra-brief 4-day theatrical run
Simultaneous production with Troll, and how the poster was made before the script
Cast highlights and on-set stories
Finally, it’s the full review:
Hot tubs in the Pleasure Zone, swingin’ parents, metalhead O.D. getting his face ripped off, stone-titted Medusa, a doomsday-planning grandpa, and Sherman—the only one who knows the truth.
This episode is pure satellite-fed, slime-drenched 80s madness.
