Episode 218: Nothing Lasts Forever (1984)

Special Guests: Tom Schiller, Lauren Tom, Michael Streeter, Laila Nabulsi
Guest Co-Host: Skizz Cyzyk

Maudit May continues with Tom Schiller's Nothing Lasts Forever which tells the story of Adam Beckett (Zach Galligan), a disillusioned young man who wants to be an artist. He gets everything he wants... just not in the way he expects it. The anachronistic film also stars Lauren Tom, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Apollonia van Ravenstein.

We continue our interview with Joe Dante this week as we talk about Gremlins, one of a pair of Steven Spielberg-related films that brought about the PG-13 rating in 1984. We also discuss Gremlins 2: The New Batch, one of the most subversive sequels ever made.

We're joined again this week by Chris Cummins of Topless Robot and Geekadelphia.
