    Episode 109: The Cottage (2008)

    In this episode, we crash back into action after another unexpected break and there's no better place to start than our usual center line of horror. Jason's pick brings us an interesting genre mashup in Paul Andrew Williams' The Cottage from 2008. But is this a hidden gem that fell through the cracks of the late 2000s slasher revival or a rightfully forgotten mess? We dig deep as both hosts find quite a lot to be charmed with. But before all that, Jason hits up the movie theater with Michael in tow to weigh in on a potentially new horror franchise and Dustin climbs upon the soap box to defend The Weeknd's Hurry Up Tomorrow against an overwhelming amount of negative reviews.
