Episode 328: Over the Edge (1979)

Special Guests: Charlie Haas, Tim Hunter, Vincent Spano, Andy Romano, Harry Northup
Guest Co-Hosts: Heather Drain, Leon Chase

Jonathan Kaplan's Over the Edge (1979) tells the story of a group of disaffected youths growing up in the sterile confines of a remote suburb. Their folks dig on that almighty dollar, seeking to continue to build up the cookie cutter homes of New Granada, even if it means knocking down the local rec center, the only place the kids have to congregate in any sort of civilized manner.

This episode features interviews with co-writers and along actors Vincent Spano, Andy Romano, and Harry Northup.

Leon Chase and Heather Drain join Mike to reminisce about the film and their younger days.

Note: H/T to Andrew Collins: The graphics on the bedroom TV in Over the Edge was the Atari Video Music console
