Episode Synopsis

It's a hard ticket to Halloween! And we're kicking off spooky season with two faux-horror flicks to ease us in. This week pits The Cabin in the Woods against Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. Which one will you watch? Let's decide!Is horror the tropiest genre? Eli Craig and Drew Goddard are certainly having fun playing with our expectations. These horror-comedies held our hands into the 2010s, pioneering a genre metamorphosis without necessarily laying the groundwork. Fifteen-ish years later, do they hold up in the contemporary landscape? We'd like to think so.
