On this episode of YOU DON’T KNOW DICK (the world’s finest Dick Miller podcast) we’re going APE with Box Office Gross podcast co-host Rob Stammitti as we check out the Jonathan Kaplan-directed Matthew Broderick-starring chimpanzee science-fiction(?) drama PROJECT X from 1987. Filled with monkeys flying planes, microwaving slop (and being microwaved by the government!), and causing mischief, this controversial film also has Helen Hunt, William Sadler and CHIMPS galore! But not only THAT, we also check out an episode of TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE called “All a Clone By The Telephone” featuring Harry Anderson! AND DICK MILLER! It’s ALL TOO MUCH!
