NIGHT OF THE LEPUS

About this episode

The episode discusses the cult horror film 'Night of the Lepus', featuring giant killer bunnies and scientific experimentation.

While we generally don't do Easter-themed episodes, we have a tangentially related one for you this time: a killer animal film about vicious, man-eating... bunnies!? Yes, Night of the Lepus ' overall concept is questionably zany, and it doesn't really do a whole lot to expand on the goofy premise. However, we're talking about giant creatures, scientific experimentation, and Star Trek 's Bones in this episode! We're also drinking Sloop Brewing Co.'s New York Pale Ale!
