Episode 217: Joe Lynch and Return of the Living Dead (1985)

Scarred For Life

This week we're incredibly excited to chat with filmmaker Joe Lynch! You know his work from Mayhem to Wrong Turn 2 to Everly and his latest film, the Lovecraftian Suitable Flesh is currently on VOD, Blu Ray and will be on Shudder this Friday! We gush about national treasure Barbara Crampton, working with Stuart Gordon collaborator Dennis Paoli and so much more before finding out why Return of the Living Dead terrified him growing up. We talk about braaaains, Trash, nihilism mixed with comedy and the indelible legacy of Dan O'Bannon's classic.
