Episode #176: Pandorum (2009)

January 19, 2026 · 1 h 13 min

Show notes

It's not easy being a sci-fi horror film. Even when you pull off something cool, people will always call you an Alien retread. But Pandorum writer/director Christian Alvart is here to set the record straight on all sorts of things, from how the movie got made to how it got dumped into theaters in rather unceremonious fashion. My thanks to Christian for this great episode, and my thanks to all patrons and listeners! And Effin Birds!
