An iconic example of viral marketing, Jamin didn’t see this movie until high school, and Rebekah is watching it for the first time here in this episode! This movie brings a whole new type of scare for Jamin and Rebekah to discuss, and some trivia that really brings the discussion on behind the scenes ethics to a head. Will this experimental horror film land for Rebekah, or will this be another The Exorcist?
