In this Halloween-spooktacular of an episode, Justin and Thom discuss why making a Karate Kid shower costume is tougher than it seems, which movie monsters would make the best work boss, and what kind of real-life spooktacular events have happened to them. They welcome horror-flick auteur James Shadid to talk about his inspirations and processes for the movie-making magic of the "Uber" and "Truck" trailer series, his award-winning 48-Hour Film Fest flick "Happy Hour" and other spooktacular topics.
