On this week’s show, the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza gets a little spooktacular as we chat about the super-fun, summer-set zombie flick, The Return of the Living Dead! Why does this Skeleton Warehouse have to be open until 10PM on a holiday weekend? How great is that half-dog puppet? Isn’t it great how Russo and Romero split up their zombie sequels so we could get both sides of their shared zombie vision? Why does Frank use that entire roll of paper towels like it’s a sponge? And word to the wise, never hang out in an eerie cemetery after dark! PLUS: James Karen welcomes all zombie punks to Pathmark!
The Return of the Living Dead stars Clu Gulager, James Karen, Don Calfa, Beverly Randolph, John Philbin, Jewel Shepard, Miguel A. Nuñez Jr., Brian Peck, Linnea Quigley, Mark Venturini, Jonathan Terry, and Thom Mathews as Freddy; directed by Dan O’Bannon.
