Show notes

We're getting esoteric with Jody from Dads from the Crypt as he joins Joe to discuss Maya Deren and Alexandr Hackenschmied's experimental silent short film from 1943, "Meshes of the Afternoon". So, step out of time with us as we discuss cloaked killers, doppelgangers, and sunlight horror while becoming increasingly concerned with the inherent dangers of taking an afternoon nap.
