On this episode, Sean Marz returns to the show to discuss 1989's black comedy film "The 'Burbs" directed by Joe Dante with Aaron and Derek. They talk about whether or not this counts as horror or horror-adjacent, the excellent comedic timing of Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher and rest of the cast, and the nostalgic value of this movie. They also get into the themes of Americana, the horror of living in the suburbs, Joe Dante's ability of blending humor and macabre, among many other aspects of the film. Sean is about a nine on the tension scale. People who mow their lawn for the 800th time, and then SNAP? WELL, THAT'S AARON AND DEREK.
