On this episode we present part two of our MAMO themed week, which is a great podcast that recently celebrated its tenth year. Last time we had Matt Brown on the show to talk superhero reboots, this time it's the other half of MAMO in Matthew Price who joins us for a theme of keeping murder in the family with two horror classics: PSYCHO and HALLOWEEN. You can find more from Mr. Price on this genre by checking out his other podcast, the aptly titled Let's Scare Matthew Price to Death. But first, we discuss the inspiration for this particular battle of the horror titans, the second Gillian Flynn big screen adaptation in DARK PLACES.
