    This week, we’re going full tin foil hat mode to investigate the mysterious (and “true”) abduction of Travis Walton.

    Did he really get probed? Are polygraph tests conclusive? Why didn’t Henry Thomas get any lines in this movie?! Joining us to answer these questions and more is our old friend and co-host of the Mostly Horror podcast, Sean Parker!

    Next week, it’s Tim Burton’s disgustingly hilarious MARS ATTACKS. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

    Surprise! We didn’t originally have a James Cameron alien movie on the list for this miniseries…but then we fell into an abyssal trench. And we found some non terrestrial intelligence down here! We simply could not pass up the chance to explore the depths of a production so notoriously grueling, Cameron himself described it as his “nightmare.” So come on in, the water is (definitely not) warm.Next week, it’s the gnarly UFO cult favorite horror, FIRE IN THE SKY.
