    It's a Progressively Horrified All-Stars episode as both Samara Weaving (from Mayhem) and Adam Brody (from Jennifer's Body) play hide and seek with our hearts in the amazing 2019 horror comedy "Ready or Not". We are joined by horror author and all around great person Justina Ireland to discuss the most complicated contract that the demon lawyer has written up yet.

    Grace (Samara Weaving) has just married in to a very rich family with a board game empire and she finds out there's just one catch: that family got all their money as part of a deal with the devil and if she wants to be part of the family, she has to play a game. When she pulls the card that says "hide and seek" it means that the rest of the members of the family have until dawn to sacrifice her. It's wild. It's funny. Hopefully you don't have a thing about trauma involving hands.

    This discussion includes some favorites:
    -How does Samara Weaving make smoking look so cool.
    -Adam Brody = Always Bi and always Byronic
    -Andie MacDowell with a bow is some real queen shit. Can we get her a horse to ride on?
    -Rich people really are different
    -Being offered something by an old woman or in a fairy tale is a lose/lose situation
    -When is it acceptable to punch a child in the face?
    -It's so hard to keep good help these days.
    -Is furious girl / depressed guy our favorite ship type?
    -What do you even call that?
    -Is it just Percy and Mary Shelley? Is that ship "Shelleys"
    -Is Shellies also a term for furies, but with turtles?
    -Be gay, eat people
    -The vengeance of the demon lawyer
    -Wait, is that Alexi's Rose's old boyfriend Art?
