Ep. 114 – The Return of the Living Dead

Welcome back to the world of the living, scaredy cats! Today we’re watching Dan O’Bannon’s hilarious follow-up to George A. Romero’s zombie classic: RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD. We get things started by chatting about John Russo’s novel, Drunken Cinema in Toronto, and the best Masters of Horror and Black Mirror episodes. Chris tells us about John Carpenter and Tobe Hooper’s BODYBAGS from 1993, Dave talks about Ellen Page in THE CURED, and we reflect back on PUMPKINHEAD and DON’T BREATHE. Then we really get into it and talk about action movie sweat, 1980’s teens, zombie coverups, eating brains, zombie comedy, confusing sets, undead problem-solving, slow motion effects, The Walking Dead, reanimation, reused shots, and so much more! So lock the doors, bar the windows, and enjoy another great episode of the TEXCHRIS DAVESAW MASSACRE! Continue reading →
