Happy Halloween! We're celebrating 2007 with Rob Zombie's reimagining of John Carpenter's classic, Halloween. And if you thought Zombie's take was disturbing, just wait until you see Michael Haneke's remake of his own 1997 film Funny Games. Master of horror PJ Volk (@pjmas) helps us look into the eyes of a psychopath, while Ben Hrycak (@goodfellaben) of The Fools Journey Podcast reminds us that if your dad is badass enough, you can make it through any horror film.
