Sorry for the long title, but there's just so much we talked about! We're thrilled to welcome David Howard Thornton back to the show. We dive into the meteoric rise of the Terrifier franchise and independent horror, exploring how he went from a cult horror character to a bona fide icon and the benefits of opting out of the MPAA process. We even share some unexpected parenting advice!

We also dig into his upcoming horror short/proof-of-concept, Joker’s Wild, which he describes as a story from A Death in the Family turned up to 11. David takes on his dream role as the Joker, and our conversation unpacks the many interpretations of the character over the years, what makes each unique, and the challenges and joys of putting his own spin on such an iconic figure. Plus, we talk about which iconic character Ryan thinks David should play next!
