This week we chat with Michael Kallio, the director of the Gunnar Hansen documentary Dinner with Leatherface. Michael comes with a TON of stories about his time in the industry and with various indie horror film icons as we dive into the life of Gunnar Hansen and the weird way in which he made such a difference in Michael's life. Then we try to talk about The Fly, but Michael had a lot of stories...so this isn't a typical Scarred for Life episode (which is fine because we originally discussed The Fly with Rob Jabbaz back in episode 103).
