S15 Ep787: Link (1986)

“It’s a Tales from the Crypt episode, without the blood and obscenity!” - Chris

On this week’s episode, the 2025 Listener Request Month kicks off with a convo about the sleepy 1986 monkey horror, Link! Why couldn’t we see any of these kills? How hilarious is that dog puppet? What exactly is Terence Stamp’s character studying with these chimps? And look at that little peeper, Link, ruining that sensual bath! PLUS: Worst job on set? Definitely the person who had the dye the orange orangutan black so it looked like a chimpanzee.

Link stars Elisabeth Shue, Terence Stamp, Steven Finch, Richard Garnett, David O’Hara, Joe Belcher, and Kevin Lloyd as Bailey; directed by Richard Franklin.
