Synopsis: A man traps what he believes to be the devil and then begins a descent into crazytown. Things escalate for him when his brother Matt (AJ Bowen) and his SIL Karen show up, uninvited and unexpected, for the holidays.

In this ep, we discuss The Twilight Zone episode, The Howling Man. You can check it out here.


Next up, we’re takin a quick dip into SciFi territory with the A24 release, High Life. This movie is about living in isolation out in deep space, which is a notion that is scary enough for us to check it out for the show. So join us in a couple weeks!
