TorTR #261 - Karate Kill From Beyond the Grave

On Episode 261 of Trick or Treat Radio we celebrate our Five Year Anniversary with a jam-packed show for you all! We are joined by the director of the recently released Karate Kill and someone who has become a close friend through the show, Kurando Mitsutake! Kurando agreed to do a Q&A and we took questions from our listeners about his dream casting, the struggles of an independent filmmaker, his favorite Tekken character and much more! We also review a Hong Kong action flick from 1982 called Kung Fu From Beyond the Grave! We also play some super sweet voicemail from our listeners, we give away some prizes and celebrate with you all! So grab some exquisite fruit, burn money to summon Dracula, and strap on!
