RATING: SLASH
In this episode, the gang delves into the 1988 psychological thriller "Pin." The film follows a slow-paced narrative centered around the main character, who grapples with paranoid schizophrenia. Despite the potential for creepiness, the movie opts for a cautious approach, resulting in a slow-burn experience that ultimately falls short in its execution. The gang notes a lack of significant horror elements and the absence of the craziness that often makes such films entertaining. Unfortunately, the film's poorly executed finish contributes to an overall sense of boredom, leading the gang to advise viewers to pass on this Canadian production.
