Special Episode: INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS with Cabin Minute Cast!!

We're back!   In this very special crossover episode, Heidi Bennett and Molly Bailen from Cabin Minute Cast join us to talk about Philip Kaufman's 1978 sci-fi classic INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS! We talk about connections to THE THING, sound design and music, and of course the raw sex appeal of peak Donald Sutherland. We had a great chat and it's a great movie that clearly had some influence on THE THING, so check it out!
