It’s our favorite night of the year, and we’re celebrating in style with a special Halloween episode! This week, we’re diving into the one that started it all — John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978). Michael Myers returns to his hometown for a night of terror, and we’re breaking down everything from the haunting score to the ultimate Final Girl, Laurie Strode.

Plus, since it’s Trick or Treat, we’re spicing things up with some Halloween surprises and, of course, deciding if the Opening Kill earns the coveted Butcher Knife or gets stuck with the dreaded Butter Knife.

So grab your candy, lock your doors, and join us for a chilling celebration of the Shape that defined a genre. Happy Halloween! 🎃👻
