Episode The Terminator (1984) | Ep. 49 - Part 1
James Cameron dreamed up an unstoppable metal killer while sick with a fever in Rome, and built a franchise out of it. John, Westy, and Matt begin the story.
In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director James Cameron, the cast, and the second act — including Arnold Schwarzenegger cast against expectations as the villain, the relentless chase, and the scrappy, low-budget ingenuity on display.
The machine just keeps coming, and so does the show. Part 2 reloads: crew, finale, reception, legacy. Out now.
