The holiday season continues and this week the team dives into one of the quirkiest films of the 1980's, Savage Steve Holland's BETTER OFF DEAD! Jon, David & Brent journey into the mind of Savage Steve to break down the film's take on teen suicide & the issues that contribute to those feelings, John Cusack & the romantic comedy, what makes those kinds of films winners for Cusack, the surrealism of the film, the bizarre side storylines & more! Plus, early memories of the film, what's aged well & what hasn't, the soundtrack, the cult status & difficulty to access, and, yes, whether or not this one is a Christmas movie!
Teenage life has never been darker... or funnier... or more podcastable... it's BETTER OFF DEAD!
