[15x4] This week, we’re venturing into the neon-lit streets of 1990s Pittsburgh to discuss a cult classic that blends mobster tropes with fangs: John Landis’s Innocent Blood.
We follow Marie (Anne Parillaud), a vampire who only feeds on "bad guys", as things get messy once she fails to properly finish off a ruthless mob boss, Sal "The Shark" Macelli (Robert Loggia), leading to a literal vampire mafia takeover.
And making his debut on the show to talk about this overlooked Landis movie, it's film writer and podcaster Tim Coleman...
