Welcome ladies, germs, and people of all genders! Join Taylor & Curtis as we continue tackle a topic 40+ years in the making – that’s right, we’re covering Siskel and Ebert’s famous “Women in Danger” episode. In that episode, our boys Siskel and Ebert (or “Rog” as we call him) absolutely savage the 80s slasher, decrying them as misogynistic and violent towards women, even suggesting the fans of these movies are “vicarious sex criminals” (and actual quote!). So, what else is there to do other than cover two of the movies discussed in this classic episode? Are your intrepid hosts “vicarious sex criminals”? Are we easily manipulated by advertisements from Bravo reality shows? Would you be scared by a haunted hair brush? Listen and find out!
