Movie Meltdown - Episode 178
This episode we are coming to you “live” from WonderFest! And if
that wasn’t exciting enough, this week is also the much anticipated
return of Misty and Jay!! And we find out what they’ve been up to
lately (oddly enough involving a serial killer and a squirrel)! All
that plus we talk to two terrific actresses...
Joanna Cassidy
(Blade Runner) and
Julie Adams
(Creature from the Black Lagoon). Both amazingly accomplished women
with impressive careers, and we sit down and reminisce about some
of their more interesting movie memories.
Plus somewhere along the way we mention... being a mentor, Long
Day's Journey Into Night,
The 12 Musketeers, being a bit of a loner, working with Elvis,
Black Roses, insulting Corey, watching British television, Joss
Whedon fan fiction, being a touchstone, getting shot with an arrow,
guts on your lawn mower, James Coburn, art and sculpture, nobody
wants to pet a Jawa, mommy, Fades, Milla, Jeremy Renner’s face,
working with Robert Zemeckis, Body of Proof, my father’s first
wife..., Giorgio Tsoukalos, Doorway, changing your name, Francis
the Talking Mule, puffy paint don’t really last,
Til Schweiger, over-stereotypical characters, a Moon Knight movie,

commemorate killing your first victim, working with Bob Hoskins,

“If anybody had told me that 50-some years later, we’d even be
talking about this movie... I would have said - ARE YOU
CRAZY?!”
