We promised we'd be back in the realm of completely messed up and traumatizing films and we ALWAYS deliver! This week the Brides head to Barcelona and get stuck in the worst penthouse ever as we cover the 2007 found-footage masterpiece [•REC]! Found footage movies became almost a punch line in the mid-Aughts and 2010s, with the genre nearly over-saturating the market. But what makes [•REC] so different - and what makes its American remake, Quarantine, so disappointing in comparison - is its balls to the wall, take no prisoners commitment to scaring the every loving crap out of the viewer, with an ending that still makes us want to curl up in a ball and die. Fourteen years later, this movie has lost none of its ability to surprise and terrify. We round things out with a spirited chat about our love for the genre of found footage as a whole, and Alysa bemoans the fact that she had to rewatch this movie on Crackle - which meant a 75 minute movie was broken up by 500 commercials for Fortnite. The things we do for you, dear listeners. 

NOTE: The end of this episode contains mild spoilers through episode 2 of the Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Don't say you weren't told!
