In which hosts Red & Puffer take a break from the rigors of the Lottery to celebrate Samhain by watching all of 9 of the Halloween movies. (We did not watch the Rob Zombie reboot.) Pitting each against the next at random, the final of which will be the ultimate Halloween movie that represents the franchise in the Lottery. Honestly, this is just more off the cuff then usual but we had some fun with this.

Halloween Theme arranged and performed by Occidental Dirt Farmers.

In which your hosts spend some time with creepy kids, in the homicidal coming of age period piece ALICE SWEET ALICE (1972) and the supernatural creepiness of SINISTER (2012). Red and Puffer dig deep into the burdens of the structures that bind us, family, religion, and things kept hidden. Two terrific, scary movies and a good discussion.

Episode music and theme by Ulrike Mod. Sound design by Dread Lottery.

In which your hosts explore a couple of neighborhoods to chase down that which is hidden: lower Manhattan in the mid-80s in C.H.U.D (1984), and a Toronto apartment complex after dark in IMPOSSIBLE HORROR (2017). Red & Puffer join in a search for  mysterious screams and subterranean monsters, and hunt for meaning in the dark.
