Listen "Jason and Eric Talk "The Crazies" and "No Blade of Grass""
Episode Synopsis
This week Eric Hoffman joins Jason to talk about two 1970s films that take on the idea of a pandemic in very different ways. In George Romero's The Crazies, a virus is loose in a small Pennsylvania town that makes all its residents crazy. Jason loves the low budget, handmade feel of the film while Eric was frustrated by its amateurishness. But Eric and Jason agree on No Blade of Grass, a heavy downer of an ecological fable directed by Cornel Wilde. Whether you've seen these movies or not, we think the pod is worth a listen. And of course, there are SPOILERS aplenty!
