Swimfan (20th anniversary)

Release Date Rewind

It's Back to School month, so Mark welcomes longtime friend (and lifeguard!) Kit Sheehan back on the podcast to go on a journey deep into the school pool. They discuss a movie they saw together in the theater 20 years ago, probably on opening night at the mall: the "classic" chlorinated psycho-sexual teen thriller SWIMFAN (aka SwimFan85, a better original title), which was released on September 6, 2002. The two wonder who is the bigger swimfan here as they rave about the wild twists and turns of this Fatal Attraction 2.0 starring dreamboat Jesse Bradford, scary Scientologist Erika Christensen, and wholesome WB star Shiri Appleby. Plus, hear from pal Gaius Bolling, another swimfan, who chimes in with his appreciation of this steamy and slippery tale.
