FANS: Actress Kristine DeBell joins us to talk about casting, the sheer lunacy of the 70s and 80s, SAG, working with the likes of Jackie Chan & Richard Gere, and roles in films like Robert Zemeckis' I Wanna Hold Your Hand and numerous titles from David DeCoteau. And, of course, we discuss her role as A.L. in Meatballs!
FILMS: Our favorite C.I.T., A.L. (too many acronyms?), sits in with us for our review of the summer camp classic Meatballs (1979) that launched the film careers of Bill Murray and Ivan Reitman with suprisingly box office-smashing results. We talk Spazz, steamed weenies, summer camp stories and wacky soundtracks before sending this up the flagpole for review on the Cult Filmometer.
FINDS: Pasasite in black and white, thoughts on the pilot for Star Trek: Picard, new Disney+ series for Willow and The Mighty Ducks in development, 911 spinoff with Rob Lowe debuts, The Karate Kid Musical and more!
