Rick or Treat Horrorcast

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, Spookies! In continuing the tradition of discussing the Halloween films in sequential order twice a year, we've finally come to HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS. To help me discuss this mixed trick or treat bag of plot holes, narrative misfires, and countless script rewrites, I’m joined by one of my favorite friends, Mikey Aspinwall! JUSTICE FOR TINA!

RICK OR TREAT HORRORCAST is back from the dead! Refreshed, revitalized, and reformatted. In the show's grand return, insanely talented cinematic power couple Allan Piper and Jennifer Leigh Houston join to discuss their hilarious and spirited new horror/comedy, "eVil Sublet". We also gush over 1963's ghostly classic, THE HAUNTING, analyzing its portrayal of female suppression, mental illness, longing to be seen, and queer representation. It's good to be back, y'all.
