# Episode #391 – Critters, with Steven Kostanski

The listener who entered [our Sexy Xenomorph contest](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnh7kk_MVlQ&list=PLFw4Czlf27_ZzdeRDyKb5BTzr5NQpvbXv) under the name “Do Critters Next” asked us to “Do Critters next,” so we did [Critters](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090887/) next, which has ceased to become “[next](https://www.flophousepodcast.com/2008/01/episode-nine-next/)” and is now now. And who better to join us for this slice of silly 80s monster horror than a man whose own films bear the influence of that horror decade, [Steven Kostanski](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2725627/), the director of [Psycho Goreman](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11252440/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), the movie that turned Stuart Wellington into [a brain in a tube](https://www.google.com/search?q=tube+man+psycho+goreman&sxsrf=AJOqlzVnZgeE-e136C4Yy5HFxHELib7ggA:1678479450802&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj10bWbl9L9AhXYF1kFHTTBCmEQ0pQJegQIBhAC&biw=1016&bih=514&dpr=3).
