This week on Every Rom Com, join Jen and horror superfan Apollonia as we take on the 2019 Lupita Nyong’o zombie rom com “Little Monsters.” We’ll talk about the zombie rom com genre, decide if we have what it takes to survive the zombie apocalypse, and use our previous experience as teachers to discuss the special challenges of dealing with zombies on a kindergarten field trip. And as usual we’ll suggest a great assortment of double feature recommendations for your Halloween viewing pleasure!
