Episode 406: Body Double (1984)

Brian De Palma’s 1984 film, Body Double stars Craig Wasson as Jake Scully, an actor in a low-budget vampire film. After a terrifying bout of claustrophobia he loses his job, his girl, and his home until fellow actor does Jake a favor by letting him apartment-sit at a posh pad. As an added bonus, there’s a woman across the way who performs a nightly ritual of self-pleasure and, well, Jake likes to watch. Special guests Robert J. Avrech and Gregg Henry, along with guest co-hosts Bill Ackerman and Jim Vendiola, join Mike to discuss the film.
