            Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We have one awesome episode in store for you guys because we’re talking two George Romero films: 1988’s Monkey Shines and 1993’s The Dark Half.

We start by talking about what we’ve done involving horror recently. We talk about the season finale of The Last Of Us, the films M3GAN, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, and Liam talks about the show Owl House.

Up first is Monkey Shines. Justin talks about how the poster of this movie used to frighten him quite badly as a child and Liam talks about writing it off until seeing it as an adult and realizing it was a Romero film. We briefly discuss our unfamiliarity with the politics of the film’s depiction of the quadriplegic community.

We discuss the film’s depiction of a man who has been rendered less than a child and robbed of his dignity
