Description

Y’all ready for prom? Grab your blood buckets and corsages, it’s time to watch Brian De Palma’s supernatural horror film, Carrie (1976)! Eric re-evalutes this horror classic, while Jaime makes some enemies. We have a lot to say, so settle in for this one. 

Content warnings: domestic and physical abuse and violence, animal death, electrocution, violence, lots of blood, religious trauma and dubious sexual consent in one scene.

This week, we’re highlighting The Trevor Project. Learn more about them here: https://www.thetrevorproject.org/
