It's a brand new month and throughout August we will be celebrating the incredible Legacy of Wes Craven. Kicking off without an often overlooked film in his canon 1991's The People Under the Stairs. This is a wild one for sure.
A first time watch for both of us, we talk about our initial impressions of what the hell we just watched.
We get into some of the social commentary present at play in this film and some of the messaging within.
We get into the story itself, how it's based on true events and how it inspired an episode of Criminal Minds.
The film's extreme weirdness and the meshing of humour with some of the film's more outrageous elements.
How does this fit in with the rest of Wes Craven's work and is rightly overlooked or does it deserve more love?
We also discuss the proposed remake coming from Jordan Peele & Monkeypaw Productions.
All this and lots more in this week's episode, so grab your gimp masks, and let's get to it!
