Dive into the twisted rock 'n' roll nightmare of Brian De Palma's Phantom of the Paradise this Spooptober, where fame devours the soul and every contract's signed in blood. The Grindhouse Girls, Katie and Brit, are joined by the host of The Cinedicate, Armand Haddad, for a wild ride through Faustian bargains, flamboyant beefcakes, and cult classic chaos.
