Get ready for a rollercoaster because we're talking "beware of the bad boyfriend" (and maybe the bad dad?)

Also: Jenn has a strange connection to Reese Witherspoon?!Wanna connect with the show?> Gena: @genadoesthings> Jenn: @jennferatu> Joe: @bstolemyremoteIf you like the podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe!

Bodies of Horror: Episode 41 - House of Wax (1953)
The 1953 film House of Wax doesn’t come up much when we talk about the disabled villain trope…but should it?

Such Sights To Show: Episode 7 - Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell (2016)
Bryan and Joe venture back in time for Paul Kane's Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell, a Sherlock Holmes and Hellraiser cross-over novel that's surprisingly fun!What impresses us the most isn't how knowledgeable Kane is, but how integrated his homages to the franchise are in the central plot. This is a proper story that utilizes both mythologies in a smart, satisfying way!Plus: surprises from Hell on Earth and Bloodline, why Sherlock vs the Order of the Gash makes sense, new Cenobites, IP concerns, and why we wish the Epilogue wasn't included.Wanna connect with the show?Bryan: @eviltaylorhicksJoe: @bstolemyremoteMusic Credit: Hellraiser Theme by Christopher YoungIf you like the podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe!Check out Anatomy of a Scream for more great content and the other Network pods Hosted on Acast.

White Ladies in Crisis: The Net (1995)
Dial up your modem and log onto Pizza.Net because Jenn, Gena and Joe are talking about the 1995 Sandra Bullock vehicle, The Net!This technophobia thriller is *very* of the time, but also oddly prescient about how much of ourselves we reveal online. Plus: Jenn falls for another bad guy, Dennis Miller in the movies, avoiding boats and carnivals and the unusual AIDS elements in the film.Moral of the film?
