One of the most famous movie directors was involved in the death of a legendary actor and two children on his set. In the early 1980s, hot off the heels of several hit movies, director John Landis was hired to direct a segment from the Twilight Zone movie being produced by Steven Spielberg. After a series of shady decisions - most of them illegal, Landis ended up directing a scene at 2:30 AM featuring an actor, two small children, a bunch of fake rain and explosions, and an actual helicopter. The night would end in tragedy. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we take a look at the shocking deaths on the set of the Twilight Zone movie. -- This Week's Listener Memes: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/u8ol72y6fc38050/AACxKGDVELyj02LMjuDTwr6ha?dl=0 -- Pick up some Deep Cuts T-Shirts and other merch! https://bit.ly/deepcutsmerch -- Get the official Deep Cuts shoulder patch! http://bit.ly/deepcuts_patch -- Listen to our new album, a 9 song rock opera about the rise and fall of Napster! https://open.spotify.com/album/63C5uu1tkzZ2FhfsrSSf5s?si=q4WItoNmRUeM159TxKLWew -- Additional incidental music credits: D.Catalano https://wekeepoddhours.bandcamp.com The Deadboy Detectives Learn more about your ad choices.
