Welcome ladies, germs, and people of all genders! Join Taylor & Curtis as we dive into our (semi) annual Thanksgiving episode but this time with a little twist. We are covering films actually about or reminiscent of Black Friday, the biggest day for shopping in the U.S.! We cover the history of Black Friday (non-American listeners, listen up!!) before covering our films. Where did the term "Black Friday" come from? How do horror films explore consumerism? What's more interesting: alien creatures, or the interpersonal drama between coworkers? Can we remember all of the famous Hughs? Listen and find out!
Please connect with us on Instagram: @ahhrealfilms and now Bluesky: @ahhrealfilms.bsky.social. You can drop us a line to let us know how we're doing, or to suggest a future topic or film to discuss: [email protected]. We’d love any recommendations for this series or a future listener submitted episode! And please remember to rate, review, and subscribe on your favorite podcast app!
You can also find us both on Letterboxd! Follow us on our horror journey and occasional forays into romcoms (because let's be real).
