The days are getting darker, Halloween has come and gone, and winter is right around the corner. If SAD is starting to set in — or just the sads in general — then we've got the perfect cure-all, and it’s The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009). It’s got romance, monsters, and mental illness. What else could you possibly need? It’s also the start of a little something we like to call Werewolf vs. Vampire Seasonal Depression Event, where we'll be sporadically covering movies featuring werewolves, vampires, or maybe even both if you're lucky. On our latest episode, you’re the luckiest, and so are we as bonafide Twilight expert Sarah Elizabeth Gallagher helps us break it all down.
