Happy Halloween! To celebrate, check out our latest episode as we delve into the 1978 classic Halloween! Enjoy as we discuss the terrifying aura of Michael Myers, while also wondering aloud if the movie would have been better off had the killer been Jason's mother.

And of course, just hear us rave about this seminal movie and how suspense seems to be an afterthought these days.
