Dead Ringers Episode 65: YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN + RETURN OF THE KILLER TOMATOES

Nolan is joined by Ben McBride, Kat McBride, and Emily von Seele to discuss Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein (1974) and John De Bello’s Return Of The Killer Tomatoes (1988). The crew catch up on new discoveries, rewatches, and recent releases before embracing their mad scientist roots and bringing a new generation of monstrous (but silly) creations to the world.
