Episode Synopsis
This week the Hack or Slash team explores the love letter to the horror genre known as The Cabin in the Woods (2012). The group debates the satisfaction of gore distribution versus average gore in a film, looks back on the roots of horror cinema, and wonders if poor underwear design is a Sigourney Weaver trademark. The group also debates the quality of generic versus name brand antagonists, Ryan shares her own creepy cellar story, and Mack schools the group on Newman O's. This episode contains spoilers.
