Tar Man Hot Chocolate – Return of the Living Dead
As one zombie said: “It’s no brain, but it’s good!”
Inspired by Return of the Living Dead, Tar Man Hot Chocolate celebrates all the gooey goodness of Tar Man without the obvious side effects.
This movie was featured on our podcast Cinema du Fromage and was a fan favorite. We loved this movie and watch it every Halloween.
