Critters 2 (1988)

Hey Cannon Cruisers fans! This week, we’re hopping back into the chaos with Critters 2: The Main Course (1988), directed by Mick Garris. Set two years after the original, the story returns to Grover’s Bend just in time for Easter, as a batch of leftover critter eggs hatches and unleashes another round of small-scale terror. We talk returning cast members, the film’s mix of horror and comedy, and the creative effects work from the Chiodo Brothers. With a surprisingly high body count for a PG-13 film and some memorable moments of mayhem, we look at how this sequel builds on the first and where it stands in the franchise. Tune in to hear our take on this oddball creature feature.
