Welcome back to Retro Blood podcast! In this episode, we're wrapping up our "It Came from the Sky Month" by delving into the bizarre world of "The Stuff" — the organic, white, fluffy parasite stuff that became a commercial sensation due to corporate greed. 
We'll be comparing this movie's script and focus to another cult classic, Halloween 3. 
In our weekly history segment, we'll explore what was happening in pro wrestling and metal music around the release date of this movie, June 14, 1985. We discuss a tag team match from Mid-South Wrestling between Dr. Death and Ted DiBiase vs. the Fantastics. In metal, we dive into the mighty power metal band "Exciter" and their album "Long Live the Loud". 
Then, we'll get into some behind-the-scenes details of "The Stuff", including filming locations, and discuss the director and writer Larry Cohen. We'll explore why he had the idea for "The Stuff", and reveal who was originally supposed to play the "Chocolate Chip Charlie" character. 
Additionally, we'll delve into the copyright dispute surrounding the film. 
Finally, we'll provide a full review of "The Stuff", with Mo (aka David) being as weird as ever — we even compare him to Tom Atkins from Halloween 3. We discuss the film's comedic elements, its lack of horror, and, of course, its commentary on corporate greed. Oh, and let's not forget about a kid named Jason who basically becomes a killer.
