Hello! I talked probably too much about John Waters's SERIAL MOM, one of my very favorite films with @hnacpod.bsky.social. Take a listen!

It's the holiday season and Pace is coming to you fresh with some Thanksgiving Horror recommendations. No holiday says horror quite like Thanksgiving, with its genocidal, colonialist legacy, so sit back, pop the popcorn, and throw one of these flicks on the tube.
