Slasher Summer closes out with 1998's URBAN LEGEND (dir. Jamie Blanks). We talk about our favorite urban legends, the undeniable aesthetic of the '90s, and why we still check our cars' backseats.

Next on the chopping block is 2007's HALLOWEEN (dir. Rob Zombie). We deduce whether or not Michael Meyers needs a backstory, Illinois' housing market, and the power of Halloween on horny teens. Check out our episode about the OG Halloween here.

Ah yes, our favorite franchise about why you shouldn't read books! We watched 2013's EVIL DEAD (dir. Fede Alvarez). We talk about gore on gore on gore, addiction, and the great state of Michigan. Listen to our first episode about THE EVIL DEAD (1981) here.

It's the month of May so we're trying something new: ReMAYkes! That's remakes of movies that we've already covered here on We Die First. First up on the chopping block is 2013's CARRIE (dir. Kimberly Peirce). We talk about what the remake got right, what it got wrong, and euphemisms for dirty pillows. Listen to our first CARRIE episode here.

We close out Apeshit April with 1997's ANACONDA (dir. Luis Llosa). We talk about Angelina Jolie's daddy, dubious claims about the digestive habits of snakes, and Owen Wilson. It'd be a shame if you missssssssssssed this one.
