Merry Christmas, listeners! Has the holiday season got you down? Well, we've got just the remedy for you. Watch this progressive, feminist proto-slasher movie from the before-times. It features a drunk Lois Lane, unrequited love, and a British Hussey who doesn't know how to answer a phone. And we haven't even mentioned all the blood! If you haven't seen Black Christmas before, check it out and run - don't walk - back here to listen to our deep dive!
