Ep. 41: Return of the Killer Tomatoes (1988) w/ The Family Frights Podcast

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Mary returns and brings her kiddo, Neo along to promote their new podcast, The Family Frights Podcast! We discussed Return of the Killer Tomatoes, but unfortunately You can't hear Mary and Neo for most of that. They were gracious enough to send audio to help with that, which worked out anyway, bc they watched Attack of the Killer Tomatoes the first time instead of Return. Anyway, still a fun little episode and a treasured piece of early George Clooney.

Since I've had some technical difficulties as well as just being super busy with work, I don't have new AOTKO for you just this second, but this is an episode of my other podcast, What in the Wide World of Cinema?! This was our 2nd episode about 1977's Hausu, with my friend, comedian, Trent Manning. If you've never seen Hausu, I strongly recommend it. If you have, then you know why I thought it was a good bonus episode for AOTKO. Either way, stay tuned!
