What’s your favorite scary movie? Spooky season is upon us! The days are getting shorter, the air is getting crisper, and the bugs are going into hibernation! We’re celebrating by getting our movie list together for October talking through the different genres of horror movies and how they compare/contrast to one another.
If you love horror movies, join us for the chat. If you hate horror movies, stick around to see if there’s a genre you could consider. Some spoilers for some movies ahead!
