Nolan is joined by Paul Farrell and Kat Adams, as well as special guests Anya Stanley and Jordan Byrd, to discuss Roman Polanski's ROSEMARY'S BABY (1968) and Jordan Peele's GET OUT (2017). The group celebrates Women in Horror Month by recommending some of their favorite horror movies directed by women and catches up on their latest horror discoveries before becoming embroiled in a conspiracy which seeks to exploit and control marginalized bodies.

Other movies discussed on this episode: NEAR DARK (1987), THE LOVE WITCH (2016), XX (2017), REVENGE (2018), THE INVITATION (2016), OPERA (1987), HAPPY DEATH DAY (2017), CLASS OF 1999 (1990), THE CLOVERFIELD PARADOX (2018), WINCHESTER (2018), BONE TOMAHAWK (2015).
