    2024/12/02

    It's James Gunn week on the pod, and we're (finally) talking about the DC Studio head and his origins as a down-and-dirty genre guy.

    Between the mouth-stuffing slugs and Michael Rooker's lovably demented performance as a human meat volcano, SLITHER has a little bit of everything. And we're all for it.

    Next week, we take a trip down to Johannesburg for our first Neill Blomkamp picture, DISTRICT 9. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.
