Episode 67 takes you to Summer Camp. In the woods. On a lake. Are you picturing a hockey-masked killer yet? Well, stop it already, we’re talking about the often overlooked 1981 slasher, “The Burning”! Your hosts watch this one live, so please cue up the movie and follow along…it just might be fun! There is an origin story for the Cropsey killer and it turns out he has good follow through. He should, with the help of FX maestro Tom Savini! There’s also writing talent provided by Bob and Harvey Weinstein. Along this journey, you’ll find out that faces in windows are almost never a good surprise, you’ll meet a hospital employee who only speaks in double negatives and a bunch of rowdy campers. A young Jason Alexander (George from Seinfeld, but with hair) is one of them! Rattner from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" is another. And there’s also Holly Hunter! “How have I never seen this?” you might ask. We don’t know. But what we do know is that these picturesque locations are most certainly all overpopulated and gentrified by now. All the murder is just mainstream and franchised. Murderbuck’s on every corner! So, travel back with us, if you will, to the Golden Age of Bullying and keep in mind that the horrible face in the window just might be your own reflection!
