And did you know the same producers behind this swampy cult classic were also deeply involved in making Tim Burton's Batman '89 possible? If you didn't, you're gonna love my deep dive with Tim into Swamp Thing! https://youtu.be/Bbo1ubjBRoo https://rumble.com/v785mki-swamp-thing-is-the-only-wes-craven-super-hero-movie-hack-the-movies.html
