Scott introduced to Jon this screwball murder mystery that the characters were turned into a musical that was an original story without the charm. Jon, as always, is confused as to why they made an original story. Scott is big mad at the musical.

Jon surprised himself by picking this one for Arianna to watch (for the first time!). The two discuss how wonderful Kevin Bacon is in this movie, Jon bitches about changes made to the stage version, and Jon saved Arianna from watching the terrible remake but watched it himself.

In a theme month crossover event, we're closing out spooky season but starting another round of Screen to Stage with the 1988 cult classic Beetlejuice (or Betelgeuse?). Blanche has been patiently waiting to talk about this, and is disappointed in Jon's views on the sequel movie. Also, Jon is a downer this whole episode...

Jon learned of a short lived Broadway musical, Hot Feet, and got in touch with the book writer, Heru Ptah. This episode is a little different because the internet failed Jon, but Heru gave a lot of behind the scenes stories.

We're trying here - although this isn't a musical, Jon and Christopher get into the cult classic The Crow, and how this music was influential for metal/industrial musicians (like Christopher). However, Jon does try to pitch a musical movie adaptation of this story.

Gibson is back on his first solo episode to discuss another undead musical (his words). He challenged Jon to watch not one but two versions of this show and the non-musical movie the stage production is based on. Jon also learns a lot from Gibson about the history of this show, and the behind the scenes drama!

The dream team is back on the pod this spooky season to talk about a movie Jon has been sitting on for far too long (but also needed to fill a slot for this October). Jon, Scott and Kendra discuss the sensational KPop Demon Hunters! They break down the mythology and cultural references that are in this movie, go off on plenty of tangents, and debate over which song is better from this movie.
