Show notes:

  • Correction: we erroneously state that this film made $80 million in its opening weekend. Its actual opening gross was $52 million.
  • Today’s show music consists of the themes from Psycho (Bernard Herrmann, 1960) and Halloween (John Carpenter, 1978).

  • Why? Well…let’s just say found footage films aren’t known for their innovative scores.
  • Happy Halloween!
