Plot Summary: Dracula enlists the help of The Wolfman, Creature, The Mummy and Frankenstein's Monster to obtain a powerful amulet and send the world into eternal darkness. However, a group of misfit kids discover his evil plan and use their vast knowledge about monsters to stop him.
Note: Celebrating the film's 25th Anniversary (which just occurred last month, August 14th), William joins me to reflect on the film's unique tone, troubled marketing, past and future reception, smart writing and what the film has meant to us over the years. Remember to listen for the preemptive countdown before starting the movie on your DVD.
