Join us this week as we talk about the worst next day implications for various characters across the horror genre. From living in purgatory to feeding worms to a monster every day, these characters are going to have a pretty crumby existence. Bonus content includes what it means to get "binged" by a T-Rex and an unnecessary analysis of Donkey and Dragon's romantic relationship in Shrek.
