To kick off April O'Bannon, Brian and Cargill are joined by filmmaker Owen Egerton (Blood Fest, Mercy Black) to give a big face-hug to Ridley Scott's Alien.
The guys discuss how Alien influenced the holy triumvirate of geek movies to follow even as it was itself influenced by three that came before it. They also sink their pharyngeal jaws into Dan O'Bannon's style, original script, and tireless (sometimes irksome) demands for the final product.
Also, it turns out that in space, everyone can hear them sing Toto, christen an unlikely new Disney princess, and find Nazi gold at the McCallister house.
Download, listen, enjoy! And make sure to check out Owen's movie Mercy Black now on Netflix!
