TMR 044 – The Willies

from Total Movie Recall

This week on Total Movie Recall, the age of innocence is over, and somehow what was supposed to be a fun episode about a trashy, campy, forgotten 90s horror movie becomes a despairing yawp into the empty air about the power structures that let abusive, predatory men get away with everything. Don't worry, we still find time to talk about the golden age of Nickelodeon and this awful, awful movie. The Willies (1990) d.
