January 30, 2023 #111 - Body Bags
Our Anthology Month comes to a close, as we round out January with a look at Body Bags from John Carpenter & Tobe Hooper. We talk about what an absolute blast this film is. It's origins as a series pilot and how the series never got picked up. We get into just how much fun John Carpenter is having as the host of this one, and how we wished there were more of these purely for more John Carpenter. How the segments by Carpenter & Hooper feel tonally when compared to each other and how their approaches give each segments very different vibes. We of course break down all 3 segments and go through what we did and didn't like as well as talking about the insane casting and cameos in here. All this and lots more in the fun filled episode.
