In this episode, Dustin steers us back into the world of A24’s “elevated” horror for one of their most baffling yet engrossing releases. A simple story about a killer dress, and yet there is so much more going on beneath the surface. Join us as we check out Peter Strickland’s In Fabric from 2018. Jason focuses in on the pacing of the story and the impact of its unexpected second act. Dustin pulls out the pin board to map out theories about what’s really going on. But before all that, we’re currently experiencing some unprecedented achievements at the movie theater for horror, and after covering his prior film, we had to get out and show some support for Curry Barker’s Obsession. And so much more!
