The Halloweenies return to Chicago as they pick up where they left off in Season 6. Next up? 1990's Child's Play 2. Joining the gang is Randall Colburn of The Losers' Club: A Stephen King Podcast. Together, they discuss John Lafia's stylish direction, Don Mancini's lean into comedy, Brad Dourif's timeless catchphrases, how the rights landed at Universal, and why 1990 was a strange year for the studio.
