This week we're diving headfirst into the meta mayhem of Blood Fest (2018). We sift through its hidden horror references, evaluate how well its humor lands, and ponder the chemistry among its cast. In this episode's b-side, we chat about our impending trip to Halloween Horror Nights, reveal the haunted houses that have us buzzing, and mull over which horror film character we'd choose as our Blood Fest survival partner. This episode contains spoilers, beginning at 32:50.
