Episode 7: Xanadu/The Balloon

Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are back to take a look at movies of "any genre, any year and any quality" in an episode which people are already calling Episode 7 of The HD Movie Podcast!

Kicking off this episode is another movie challenge and it's Darren's turn to pick the movie. After the recent horror and sci-fi outings, it's time for a refreshing and somewhat trippy change as the film in question is the 1980 musical (and box-office flop) that is XANADU!

After all of that, is there time for another surreal jaunt into the world of Public Information Films? You bet there is! This time, we're in 1981. The focus is on road safety, a clown and some blatant product placement in Frank Prendergast's THE BALLOON!

Music for the HD Movie Podcast Theme is provided by the one and only Mitch Bain: @whoelsebutmitch
