Show Notes
Ben and Rob discover ‘Critters’, the 1986 horror comedy from practical FX masterminds The Chiodo Brothers. When intergalactic creatures escape space jail, a small Kansas farmhouse must now deal with the critter menace with only alien futurecops to help them. Released in the wake of ‘Gremlins’ but written long before, ‘Critters’ made good at the box office and has become cult favourite horror comedy in the decades since it’s release.
But underneath ‘Critters’ craziness, is there a darker undercurrent of communist paranoia? Or perhaps an even deeper foretelling of a future American crisis? Have we proved that ‘Critters’ tells the future?!
