Ep -294: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974).

Disclaimer: Please see this movie before listening. Spoilers ahead! In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian check out the new thriller by JT Mollner “Strange Darling”.  Since this film was very much not on the FM3’s radar, Brian scouted it out a couple days earlier and liked it enough to get Jef and Josh onboard with doing an episode even though they knew nothing about it. However Brian knew it checked alot of the things the guys like: a couple of horny folks, a smidge of serial murder, a dash of kink, and a pinch of wtf, all good things that add up to a delicious film. So again check the movie out before listening, you will be thankful you did! Enjoy!
