Hello Movies, My Old Friend: Episode 102 - Big Man on Campus

CAR RAYROB is back with a brand-new episode of their new podcast HELLO MOVIES, MY OLD FRIEND! This month, Ray and Rob are bringing you the movie that was the genesis for the entire podcast, the 1989 cult comedy BIG MAN ON CAMPUS.

This staple of their collective childhood stars Corey Parker (FRIDAY THE 13th: A NEW BEGINNING, THE LOST LANGUAGE OF CRANES), Melora Hardin (THE OFFICE, MONK) and Tom Skerritt (ALIEN, STEEL MAGNOLIAS). A modern retelling of Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, BIG MAN ON CAMPUS spins the tale of Bob Maloogaloogaloogaloogalooga, A notorious hunchback who haunts the campus of UCLA. When his obsession with college co-ed Cathy (Hardin) collides his existence with her boyfriend Alex (Parker), Bob becomes a subject of the college psych department who want to help him adapt to the rest of society. In the face of loud protests of a rival psychiatrist Doctor Fisk (played by the fantastic Jessica Harper), Bob must prove to everyone he's more than just a childlike creature who poses a danger to society. 

The fond memories of this classic film mount high as Ray and Rob venture into this blast from the past. Will it hold up? Tune in to find out!
