LAMBCAST #449: HALLOWEEN 2018

by Jay Cluitt · October 23, 2018 · Featured, LAMBcast, New Release, Podcasts · No Comments

There’s a new Halloween movie! Technically it’s the 11th Halloween movie. Also it’s the second. And it has the same title as the first. And the ninth. Which apparently doesn’t exist any more. Confused? Then you need to listen to this week’s Lambcast!

Jay and Richard were joined by Amanda, Courtney and Robert to cut open the new movie with a terrifyingly large knife and a worrying but entirely necessary amount of blood as we covered the new characters, the returning characters and the many, many characters who met at least moderately unpleasant ends over the course of the film. Plus, a round of Rants, Raves and Reviews of the Week, and one of the stupidest games we’ve played in a while
