Summary: ### "The important question is, where do they get all the skeletons with perfect teeth?" Tommy Handsome is back with his take on Dan O’Bannon’s 1985 zombie romp, _The Return of the Living Dead_. And before you hang up the podcast machine, wait, wait! Hear him out! This film brings some surprising horror chops in spite of the camp legacy in its wake starting with director O’Bannon himself… yes, _that_ O’Bannon, of _Alien_, _Lifeforce_, _Total Recall_ and more. If that doesn’t make the little hairs stand up, maybe you’ll get excited when you finally hear, in the words of a zombie herself, why she has a never-ending hunger… for brains… brains… brains…? ### Film Sundries Join the team!
