Wes Craven’s Deadly Friend is part sci-fi, part horror, and 100% bizarre—so of course, we had to talk about it! In this episode, we break down the 1986 cult film about teenage love, brain implants, and one of the most infamous death scenes in horror history (yes, we’re talking about that basketball moment).
Did studio interference ruin Craven’s vision, or is this an underrated gem? Join us as we dive into the film’s troubled production, its mix of heart and horror, and why BB the robot might just be the weirdest ‘80s movie sidekick.
Let us know your thoughts in the comments! Is Deadly Friend a forgotten classic or a misstep in Craven’s career?
