Listen "138: Invasion U.S.A. (1985) (feat. Erik Childress)"
Episode Synopsis
We’re releasing this a day early, the 4th of July, because why not? After all, the film has “U.S.A.” in the title. Kerry and Collin are joined by frequent guest, Erik Childress (host of Movie Madness) to talk about one of the dumbest films to come out of 1985, from Cannon Studios, one of the most notorious movie studios of its era. Who did Chuck Norris originally want to be his co-star and how would that person’s career have been altered if it had happened? Why are the terrorists in the film invading the US during Christmas? Has there ever been a great movie with an airboat sequence? All these questions and more, plus a Blu-ray Gift Exchange.
