The Dreadful duo are back and they've come with some acid filled gruesome friends!

Polaroid vs Countdown: 2 Films Under | Episode 87 | The Dreadcast

This month on 2 Films under, weve made some tweeks to the way our choices are picked. Full decades and alot more broad topics to be pulled from the coffin.

Unfortunately this has lead to the double feature of Polaroid and Countdown, both from 2019.
