Trigger Warning: We will be talking about content that may be triggering from some of our listeners such as child molestation, rape and murder.
In this episode, we are talking about one of our favorite subgenres of horror - FOUND FOOTAGE! Particularly, looking at the films that have the audience asking ‘Is it real?’, the dark side of the internet and STRANGER DANGER! The films up for discussion are Megan is Missing (2011) and The Den (2013).
Enjoy and welcome to our dark side…
