About this listen
For their 5-year anniversary episode, Roger and Troy unwrap the unhinged madness of Beware! Children at Play, a 1989 oddity where kids go feral, parents go ballistic, and Beowulf somehow gets dragged into the mess. They chomp into the film, marveling at the bonkers opening, the literary pretensions, and the psychic who shows up mostly to waste everyone's time. There's cannibalism, child murder, and dialogue so wooden it could splinter, all leading to a finale that will leave you slack-jawed, horrified, or just deeply confused. The hosts question who thought any of this was a good idea, why every adult seems incompetent, and whether the film secretly hates everyone. It’s a chaotic celebration of low-budget horror, kids with knives, and five years of laughing through the screams. Join them as they party like it’s 1989, just keep an eye on the playground.
