We here at Spook! would like to congratulate Anna Kendrick for becoming a triple threat by showing she can not only act and sing, but also direct an unsettling movie about an unsettling creep. Woman of the Hour is based on an episode of the popular 70s game show The Dating Game, where the eponymous contestant unknowingly confronts one of America’s most prolific serial killers. Joe and Nicole discuss the facts behind the film and why they probably wouldn’t watch The Dating Game were it on today.
Warning:
Episode contains spoilers and mentions murder, sexual assault, and sexual violence.
