Episode description
Don we now our SLAY apparel! (A green turtleneck)
This week, Cody and Matt celebrate the holidays with this proto-slasher pioneer! They discuss the political and social atmosphere that inspired the film's core narrative, how this movie inspired the genre moving forward, and the art direction that brings the holiday spirit to life.
They also praise Bob Clark for hitting the mark, Margot Kidder for being the booziest babysitter, and Marian Waldman for gifting us all with a veteran character performance that will last an eternity.
"B" might be for booze but it's all "A's" in our book.
Thanks for listening and Happy Howlidays!
