- TV & Film
Welcome back to Fright School! We welcome back to the show friend and Godzilla fan Brennan Klein! Joe and Brennan take on High School Musical The Musical The Series. That’s a mouthful. We also chat about the CATS ballroom reimagining. This week it’s all about the King of the Monsters, GODZILLA! We chat about the direct artistic response to nuclear fallout, Godzilla as a consequence and victim of war, and the palpable real horror echoed in the cinematography of the film. Brennan also breaks down his favorite films out of the 36 Godzilla films we have so far.
