Episode 189: Joe Russo and Predator (1987)

This week we chat with horror's Joe Russo, the filmmaker and producer behind Nightmare Cinema, The Greatest Beer Run Ever, The Locksmith and countless more. He also produces and co-hosts the podcast Post Mortem with Mick Garris. He's also currently a Strike Captain for the WGA Strike and he gives readers some ways they can help (see the links below). We chat about his history in development, getting Nightmare Cinema made, how he met Mick and so much more before going back to when he was a kid and saw The Predator for the first time. The Alien franchise, Rocky and Carl Weathers all come up and Joe has a, in Terry's mind, hot take on the Predator series vs the Alien series.
