In this episode we will discuss the effectiveness of the film's atmosphere on its shoestring budget, explore the ambiguity of the session 9's horror, and discuss the film's correlation to true crime stories. We'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death, so be sure to stick around til the end of the episode.

🦐 Celebrating its 25th anniversary this week, The Faculty was another 90s teen horror flick in the same vein as Scream. This time with Kevin Williamson infusing his meta voice and high school archetypes into the alien sub genre. The film was directed by Robert Rodriguez and has developed a massive cult following over the years, borrowing a lot of tropes from other science fiction films. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of studio love for this movie, as it seems to have been forgotten and ignored by the people who made it. There's still no proper Blu-ray release with any sort of commentaries or production features. Luckily though, we're going to discuss it thoroughly in this episode, and there's a lot to say about it, both good and bad. We'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death for The Cherry Picker, so make sure to stick around til the end of the episode.

🎹 Kicking off December with a Christmas movie... well sort of. There's a Christmas tree! That counts, right? Anyway, you can always find a good excuse to talk about Dario Argento, and this is the perfect opportunity to discuss one of his finest works, Deep Red (aka Profondo Rosso). This was not only the movie that made him an Italian household name, but it also transformed the Giallo subgenre, and went on to become a major influence for North American horror. James Wan being a great example. There is plenty to talk about here, from the rich cinematography, to the violent death scenes, and the delightfully captivating performance by Daria Nicolodi as Gianna Brezzi. As always, we'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death for The Cherry Picker, so make sure to stick around til the end of the episode.

🕶 John Carpenter's They Live opened in theatres 35 years ago, and became a No. 1 hit at the box office after the director had a string of commercial failures throughout the 80s. Despite this, the movie fell off of the box office in the week following its release, and to this day does not really get much fan fare aside from people recognizing it for the iconic faces of it's clandestine, villainous aliens... and of course the five minute fight sequence between Roddy Piper and Keith David. In any event, we are excited to be revisiting it this week, so come on in and join us for another lively conversation, where we'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death for The Cherry Picker. So stick around through til the end of the episode.

🕯 Prey. Slay. Display. Dark Castle made a millennialized remake to House of Wax back in the 2000s, which was already a remake of Mystery at the Wax Museum (1933). Remake is a bit of a loose term here, however, as the movie is much more in the style of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise. That's not necessarily a bad thing though, and in this episode we are going to run through all the fun and entertaining ways that House of Wax both supersedes (and fails), while also comparing it to the other remakes of the time. We'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death for The Cherry Picker. So stick around through til the end of the episode.

🏚 Happy Halloween!!! To celebrate, we are covering everyone's favorite entry in the franchise... Halloween Resurrection. Unless for some reason you love this movie unironically, we promise you that you'll have a hoot listening to us trash talk this movie. We've got a lot to say too. Everything from the shoddy looking production, the death of Laurie strode, the complete lack of a plot, and the characters... oh wow, the characters!!! Speaking of which, be sure to stick around all the way through to the end, because we're coming after them, nominating which characters we think were most deserving of death.
