Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast visits an alternate dimension in which Phantasm: Ravager is actually worth talking about! Ian embarks on on this treacherous journey with David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel, who brings a unique perspective to the fourth sequel, as well as to the newly restored 1979 original. Has creator Don Coscarelli lost his mojo, or is the success or failure of a franchise really in the eye of the beholder?
Also, Ian talks about diving into the world of capsule reviews, the Chicago International Film Festival (going on now), and a very special 50th anniversary screening of Manos: The Hands of Fate that he will host on Friday, November 11th! Star Jackey Neyman Jones and author Laura Mazzuca Toops will join Ian on stage at the historic Music Box Theatre to introduce the film and do a Q&A afterwards.
Episode 160 promises to blow your mind right out the back of a silver ball!
