If you lived in a climate that actually had winter, I’m sure you remember wishing there’d be a snow day on those days the white stuff was falling from the sky. A day of snowball fights, snowmen, and generally non-education related mayhem.

For this episode of GBW, we’re talking all about movies set in the snowy landscape but, in most cases, they’re not exactly ‘fun’. It’s a battle against the elements, against various evil people, and (in same cases) against yourself. Films like The Thing, Cliffhanger, Alive, and much more.

For the first of a new GBW series, we’ve gathered together a duo of actors who we think are worth talking about.

Most known for their work in 1985’s Re-Animator, we look at the careers and highlights of cult actors Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton. We talk about our love of Combs’ ability to own craziness, Chris’ proclamation that Crampton is one of his favourite 80’s “sex symbols”, and how they both managed to work together multiple times and star in many memorable horror and b-movies along the way.
