Twenty years before I met the other Terror Dave (David Albaugh), I became friends with a charismatic guy named Jason Lucas. We worked together at a local grocery store back when we were teens and I remember stocking the shelves, him strolling past me with a flop mop as we’d discuss Halloween‘s  Michael Myers.

The first can be seen HERE and the second one HERE. Finally there is also a very well  book covering these very same films!
