On this week's episode, Brian is joined by JTD regular Brendon Small and returning guest - director Joe Lynch (MAYHEM, WRONG TURN 2, EVERLY and the currently available Netflix film POINT BLANK) for an epic discussion of Chuck Russell's 1988 remake of THE BLOB and the outstanding new Collector's Edition Blu-ray of the film from Scream Factory (which contains a commentary that Joe Lynch himself moderates)! THE BLOB is one of the great practical effects films of the 1980s, right up there with THE THING and THE FLY and there is much love for it shared on this show. Please Enjoy!
