It’s a Sci-Fi B-Sides episode, covering genre schlock from the pop culture trash bin of the ‘80s, ‘90s and early 2000s. This week, Les Weiler from The TV Dudes joins Mike to discuss one of the dumbest/most amazing space-set films ever made, JASON X. We explore the movie's self-awareness, notable kills, and David Cronenberg’s inexplicable cameo appearance.
