OV286 – Franchise Fatigue and Extended Conversation – Child’s Play (2019), Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Tenebrae (1981), and Mike’s Son’s First Theater Experience (Featuring: Mike White)

In this laid back, extended conversation episode, Mike and I cover a wide range of topics including his son’s first movie theater experience, the ridiculous Twitter meltdown of @RareHorror, life in the streaming era, and more. We also review the new Child’s Play and briefly discuss Tenebrae and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
