Shocktober is brilliant. Watching 31 horror movies in a month is a true challenge and a great way to steep in the Halloween season. What is not so brilliant about Shocktober is that most horror movies are TERRIBLE, and watching 31 of them makes you wonder if you even like them anymore. Halfway through the month you feel like giving up because your ocular cavities are filled to the brim with fake blood and boobs.
Every October we participate in Shocktober, and this year we decided to do a wrap up episode discussing our highlights and lowlights from the upsetting overload of horror.
We do not hold back with spoilers, so if you have not seen any the following movies PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN AND/OR CALM DOWN AND ACCEPT THAT ONE DAY YOU WILL DIE AND SPOILERS WILL NOT MATTER:
