Listen Later

A TOTALLY timeless classic gets the Script to Scream treatment as Will and Lee head back to Haddonfield, 1978 and the night Michael Myers was first unleashed upon its unsuspecting residents. The birth of the Slasher genre, the use of a hype-man and the forced ingenuity of low budget film-making are just a few of the TOTALLY fascinating topics up for discussion.
