Dan and Brian bring to life the corpse of the much-mocked Weekend at Bernie’s and find it more palatable than they expected. Join as they discuss “they don’t make ’em like they used to” writing and practical effects, the sneaky (and possibly unintentional) satire of ’80s excess and hedonism, unspeakable acts to unalive bodies, the deliriously wacky sequel, and Dan’s proposed metaphor for the corpse.
