Episode notes
Having gone down the dark, sinister rabbit hole of Felix Blackwell's success, Justin, Jimmy, and Felix emerge and finally turn their attention to Carpenter's Halloween. In their analysis, the introduction of Michael Myers becomes an inflection point for the history of the genre, The Shining notwithstanding. The discussion uses the movie to talk about why horror is where it is today in regards to music, tone, and subject matter. "The Night He Came Home."
