Art and Erik are shambling their way through George Romero’s Dawn of the Dead, where the dead walk, the living bicker, and the mall is somehow both sanctuary and nightmare.
They chat all things zombie: from wild gore and weirder decisions to the surprisingly deep social satire hiding behind the blood splatter. The hosts unpack multiple cuts of the film (because of course there are like, seven), debate whether mall life is post-apocalyptic heaven or hell, and wonder why biker gangs always ruin everything.
And Erik keeps checking his room as it gets dark!
It’s a love letter to horror, a roast of late-stage capitalism, and a celebration of practical effects and poor planning—all in one juicy, undead-packed episode.
