This week Mike and Lara are joined by Kyle Orozovich for the perfect Halloween comfort watch,  Shaun of the Dead. This 2004 British horror comedy was at the forefront of the early aughts zombie revival. Yet where films like Dawn of the Dead and 28 days Later were grounded and self-serious, Shaun of the Dead, delivered a metric ton of laughs to go over all along with some fantastic effects and gross out visuals. Shaun gifted the world the wonderful performances of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as Sean and Ed to slacker 20 somethings that need a good kick in the pants in the form of the zombie apocalypse to get them to finally grow up. Or at least to get one of them to grow up.

When you're a pod, you think that you'll always be... protected, and cared for. Then, one day, you realize that's not true. If you open your podcast app, you will see an episode on Childhood Fears in Andy Muschietti’s It.

You’ll float too!

This week Mike and Lara tackle another patron’s choice with Noriko’s Dinner Table. This early 2000s Japanese horror film is a master class in psychological horror as it explores two young sisters experiencing loneliness after getting pulled into a cult. While the intentions of the cult seem pure, their actions lead to horrific murder and mass suicide. Patron Holly joins us to talk about why she chose this movie and how much it impacted her as a young adult. For our mental health discussion we examine how cults and fundamental groups lure unsuspecting persons and prey on the lonely and vulnerable.
