Episode 155 – C.H.U.D. (1984)

Troy and Roger dive into the cult classic C.H.U.D., a quirky 1984 horror flick set in the gritty underbelly of 1980s New York City.

They also highlight the film’s subtle social commentary on neglect and radiation exposure. With a mix of nostalgia and some head-scratching moments, they wonder if C.H.U.D. could use a fresh reboot—one that leans more into the monster madness and less into the emotional void.
