Halloween, ‘Happy Death Day’ and Slasher Flicks

The Cooler Gang slashes their way into the new Happy Death Day and hacks up other, far better, examples of the slasher genre.

This week at the Water Cooler, we’re celebrating All Hallows Eve. We review Happy Death Day, this weekend’s cheaply made new number one film that bested the uber expensive Blade Runner 2049. We’ll also talk about some of our favorite slasher or scary movies. What are we watching in the run up Halloween?

In our Terrorizing TV Tidbits, we rip off the band-aid and focus on the limitless output of news surrounding The Weinstein Company’s Harvey Weinstein. News broke just over a week ago thanks to Ronan Farrow’s report in The New York Times. He illustrated several incidents of sexual harassment perpetrated by Weinstein. Then, the real onslaught started. Emerging from every corner of the globe, actresses revealed dozens of sickening stories regarding Harvey’s very bad behavior. We’ll talk about the widespread impact of the revelations on the entertainment industry.

We close our podcast, as always, with the Flash Forward to the television we’re most anticipating in the upcoming week.
