Episode 206 – Bad Dreams (1988)

An up-close look at a horrifically burned man, with one milky eye.

The only survivor of a suicide cult wakes up in a mental institution after fifteen years in a coma, only to be haunted by the ghost of her former leader, urging her to finish the deed. Is this real? Or is she being manipulated by the hospital?

Writer and Dean Cameron-lover Alana Phelan is back with us to talk about a movie she was terrified by as a kid. Is it as scary as she remembers? Or is it all kind of silly nonsense?

Starring Jennifer Rubin, Bruce Abbott, E.G. Daily, Dean Cameron, Harris Yulin, and Richard Lynch. Written by Andrew Fleming and Steven E. de Souza. Directed by Andrew Fleming.

In the extended cut on Patreon, we also talk about mental health issues, Steve from Blues Clues, Who Framed Roger Rabbit (yes, again), and Ray Bradbury.

Dennis is dressed as Chappell Cone, with red tinsel hair and an orange traffic cone on his head; Alana is Chappell Crone, wrinkles emhasized with makeup, dressed in tiara and gown and toilet paper sash that says Crone, leaning toward the camera like she didn't quite hear what you said; Mary is Chappell Bone, in a red wig and skeleton sweatsuit.
