All this year, the Horror Pod Class will be exploring a century of fright films with their Yearbook series, covering one movie from each decade from 1925 through 2015. For 1995, we're gonna keep watching the skies as we check out the extraterrestrial erotic thriller Species.
With a surprisingly star-studded cast, Species was a box office winner, thanks in no small part to creature designs by H. R. Giger and a frequently nude Natasha Henstridge. Come for a FREE screening of this mid-90s sci-fi "classic" and then stick around as Tyler and Orrin discuss aliens, lad mags, how DNA works, and reveal the very unlikely connection between Species and a popular cryptid.
THE HORROR POD CLASS is a monthly free screening hosted by Orrin Grey and Tyler Unsell where they seek out horror films that could be useful in a school setting. Screenings start at 7pm with a live podcast recording taking place after.
