50s horror

This week, Matt, Cody and Ed the Head, come boiling up from a smoky pond with another non-AMPTP production. They talk salacious marketing tactics, the pros and cons of "Actor-Directors", and the bodily autonomy of a floating skull. Not to mention: pot-stacking soothing techniques, precarious ladder tomfoolery, atrocious artwork, and how this movie takes a common leading lady trope and flips it...on it's skull. 

Close the armoire (unless you want to have fun) and watch out for that peacock! There's a screaming skull on the loose!

Thanks for listening!
