Natalie and Arnold continue a multi-episode odyssey into a few films that inspired, were inspired by, or otherwise fit within the lineage and legacy of a modern sci-fi/horror classic, ALIEN (1979)! First up, it's the influential Italian space "epic," PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES (1965), and then the one, the only ALIEN itself. So keep avoiding strange-looking eggs, don't wear all black leather in your palatial rocket, and set your motion trackers to detect this deep-space episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

And remember, when you're listening to this podcast, the only ghoul in the house...is YOU!

Show Music: "Cemetery Dance" by The Vivisectors.
