Summary

In anticipation of our Carrie (1976) episode, we chatted with Jawbreaker writer/director Darren Stein about how De Palma's film influenced his pitch black 1999 high school horror comedy. Speaking of Jawbreaker, we've got the scoop on what that E! TV series would have looked like! Or maybe you wanna hear about Stein's plans for a film version of the Jawbreaker musical? Or a possible requel in the vein of Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night 2?! Listen for the tea! Questions? Comments? Snark?
