PCJ Classic - Roar: The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made

PCJ Classic - Roar: The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made

Author: Pop Culture Junkie July 24, 2025 Duration: 24:39
In this classic episode, the Junkies talk about the lighthearted family comedy/snuff film their producers made them watch: Roar, also called "The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made." While Shauna and Olivia weren't impressed with the whisper-thin plot and so-so acting (even though it stars Tippi Hedren and Melanie Griffith), they couldn't help but be awed by the choices made by producer Noel Marshall and his family, and not in a good way. Between 70-120 members of the cast and crew were mauled, maimed, scalped, bitten and broken during production - but the Junkies have all the reasons you need to see this movie anyway, like using it as the basis of a life-threatening drinking game. (Disclaimer: no animals or humans were injured in the making of this podcast. The same cannot be said for Roar.)
