Behold, the Horror Movie Mullet: Slow-Burn Horror!
It's business (plot building) in the front, and a party (big third-act finish). You can thank Liz Williams for that analogy!

Break out the coffee, and try not to spill it in the shocking third act of Episode 162: Slow-Burn Horror!
There can be little doubt that the past decade has been another wonderful golden era for horror movies. The generational change of horror voices arrived in a big way in the Teens, and horror movies have found serious purchase in both critical and popular appeal. The Scariest Things brings the WHOLE TEAM to the podcast this week, as Robert and Joseph join Mike, Liz, and Eric to promote our favorite genre offerings from the past ten years.
