Welcome back to Nothing Scarier Podcast!

We are back at it with yet another M.Night movie, and another week of us wondering exactly what was going on with horror in the early 2000s. First, we watch The Happening - a misunderstood masterpiece or a horrible swing and a miss? Then, Cayla brings us a little closer to never going outside by introducing three of the world's most lethal plants. Please always remember - if you don't know what it is, never use it as outdoor toilet paper.
