Today we explore the late William Friedkin's 1985 dark and dazzling neo-noir, To Live and Die in LA, which stars William L. Peterson, Willem Dafoe and John Pankow, features stunning cinematography by Robby Müller and a killer soundtrack by British new wave band, Wang Chung.
My special guest is writer and filmmaker Liam Dunn, who is also co-host of Sci-Frights, the film discussion podcast from the interzone where horror meets sci-fi.
