HeadGames Podcast: Mazes and Monsters (4x105)

Data di messa in onda: Dic 03, 2008

A clarion call for negligent blame-seeking parents everywhere, "Mazes and Monsters" (1982) was Rona Jaffe's attempt to cash in on the sensationalism behind the James Dallas Egbert III case - you know, the one that Patricia Pulling made so famous as an "expert witness" to the demonic influence of Dungeons & Dragons? Out of the cast of nobodies that starred in this made-for-after-school-TV masterplop, one shining Bosom Buddy emerged relatively unscathed: Tom Freakin' Hanks. Though to this day he continues to conveniently omit this unsightly little springboard (check his Wikipedia entry - it's not there), the Head Games Podcast crew managed to dig it up out of the dollar store bargain bin and give it the sarcasmoblasting it so achingly deserves.
