The master of horror returns! John Carpenter may not be known for his romantic road comedies…but STARMAN is a damn fine (albeit underrated) gem. Joining us to spread the gospel of Carpenter is our old friend, assistant programmer, and digital producer (!) Nik Long.

Next week, we’re hanging out with some extra-terrestrial-infected geezers in Ron Howard’s COCOON. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.
