Roar! - 1981

Season 4, Episode 24,   Jul 04, 2019, 09:50 AM

It's 1981. It's Acton, California, and a whole load of shiny, happy American movie people are being attacked by lions.

In what terrified, scalped and bleeding cinematographers are already calling the 24th episode of the CB Wallop Podcast join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss Roar! - surely the maddest, most dangerous, and least responsible clusterf#@k of a movie ever committed to celluloid.

Should they have done the whole thing with hamsters?... yes.. yes that would have been better.

Trigger warning: If you're scared of lions, tigers, pumas, cougars, and mad, angry elephants (and to be fair who isn't) then this is one to skip - but don't skip it - because it's complete madness from beginning to end. Seriously - the guy who made Die Hard gets the top of his head ripped off.
