Something's got to be done about this podcast! We don't become @$$holes or anything, but we do love a good Back to the Future / time travel / embrace the paradox discussion. And you'll get plenty of that when Bo, Patrick, and John start fluxing their capacitors and power-lacing their shoes. We might not need roads, but you're gonna want to buckle up.

Nietzsche wrote: "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." So clearly he deserves some story credit on this movie! Come dive into this underwater first contact story with us as he explore The Abyss.

It's got a creepy soundtrack, fleshy blue monsters, a rabbit infestation, and Australian socialists... but this is not your typical horror movie. Originally intended as a complex sociopolitical drama about what the adult world does to the mind of a child, American markets rebranded this film as a horror. So if you watch Celia (or in America: Celia - Child of Terror) be forewarned that you're heading into a more psychological path than an Omen or Exorcist-style fright fest.

It's been a challenge to get everyone together lately, so we take a quick break from our regular schedule, but not from 1989. John features two movies he found recently on Tubi.tv — the Hulk Hogan classic (?) No Holds Barred and the Corey Feldman/Corey Haim coming of age movie Dream A Little Dream.
