Halloweenies: A Michael Myers Podcast

Before the Halloweenies head to Hollywood in August for Scream 3, they have some film courses to complete this summer at Windsor College. For July, they're studying Lamberto Bava's 1985 Italian meta blood bath Demons as part of this season's ensuing Randy's Recs series. Together, they discuss the differences between Bava and producer Dario Argento's style, the complicated history behind the “sequels” of Demons, Stivaletti's outstanding practical effects, the shocking mid-credits ending, and Cluadio Simonetti's top-tier score.
