GEEK GIRLS STORY SALON with special guest NICK ROTH

Nick Roth's "Hanky Panky" is, depending on how you view it, a single-location horror comedy, an alien invasion movie on an extreme budget, or both. Writer-director Nick Roth sits down with Jen to talk about the ins and outs of how he got it made, and the challenges of casting when one of your leads is a napkin.
