In this episode, we step away from our focus on the past to look at a recent new release on Shudder. So join us as we check out Elric Kane's The Dead Thing from 2024. Dustin sings praise for the film and its execution in tackling its central theme. Jason grounds the discussion with some pointed questions regarding the progression of the film's narrative. But before all that, Dustin shares the first half of his recent epic re-watch of the entire Alien and Predator franchises and Jason reveals his recent temptation to collect film on Super 8. And so much more!
