28: Silent Night, Deadly Night w/guest Joe Vallese

This week, Bryan and Dave are joined by author, Joe Vallese, and hope that Santa will judge them to be good because they definitely don't want to get on his bad side as they dive head first into 1984's Santa slasher movie, Silent Night, Deadly Night. The movie that went too far. The movie that put the chill on 80's slasher movies for a couple of years. The movie that parent groups organized and protested against. Did it deserve such treatment? Not really but what's America good for if not full-blown moral panics in the face of imaginary monsters.

30: Black Christmas

Agnes, it's me, Billy! Bryan and Dave close out their holiday season series with a real deep dive into Bob Clark's masterpiece, Black Christmas. It's the prototype for the slasher movies that followed. It's a movie stuffed with a diabolical eye for detail and unbearable tension. There's a killer so twisted and weird that you reflexively turn away. There's a cast so likable and fleshed out that you hate to see them killed. Happy holidays, from us to you. Here's a real close examination of an especially dark horror movie.
