Episode 326: Trick or Treat

What this episode covers

We are going even a little further into our bag of Halloween treats to the sweet, sweet year of 1986. Some point to this year as the pinnacle of trick-or-treating success. Some just point to this year and laugh at the hairstyles. They are jerks. Regardless, this was the year of our Halloween movie of the week… Mark Price tries to break out of his role of Skippy on Family Ties by carrying this film about backwards messaging on Heavy Metal albums. This was a real fear (of right wing conservative Midwest moms) of the time so of course, Hollywood is going to turn it into a feature film. Does this semi-cult favorite still hold up in 2020? Did it ever hold up? Can Ozzy Osborne and Gene Simmons save us all?! Ron and Little Miss Horror Nerd are about to find out on this edition of the podcast!
