Put on your best white suit because we've got a date with a bloody mattress in Tony Randel's Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988). Tagging in for the discussion is our forever-Hellraiser guest: Bryan Christopher!
Join us as we heap all the deserve praise on Clare Higgins' Julia Cotton, who finally gets her due in this spectacular sequel. Hellbound astounds with a bigger budget and more world building, but sometimes suffers from an unfocused kitchen sink approach that the first film wisely avoided.
Plus: humanizing the Cenobites, discussing what a "sex movie" is, Trace's unlikely remake proposition, Ashley Laurence's excellent "WTF" face and Julia's America's Next Top Model vortex challenge.

Film History

Smash all the lights and strike a match because we're talking about disability horror, Audrey Hepburn and Wait Until Dark (1967).
Joining us for the conversation is disability documentary filmmaker Ariel Baska, who has a love/hate relationship with the film and its contribution to "cripping up."
Plus: that famous jump scare, accusations of misogyny and ableism, the gross history of "Ugly Laws," and the return of Trace's recurring joke about Charade
