Welcome back to Poltergeists and Pixie Dust! This episode, we’re diving headfirst into one of Laura’s all-time favorite films—Cabin in the Woods! Join Kelly, the whimsical dreamer, and Laura, the logical thinker, as they unpack this genre-bending horror movie that’s equal parts terrifying and hilarious. We’ll take you through the wild twists and turns as five college friends head to a remote cabin, unknowingly becoming pawns in a sinister ritual orchestrated by shadowy corporate puppet masters. Along the way, we discuss everything from creepy gas station attendants, not-so-stereotypical characters, and even a wolf-head makeout session that Laura would rather forget! Kelly brings the trivia (Chris Hemsworth before Thor, anyone?), and Laura channels her excitement for Bradley Whitford, plus we debate whether free will or fate decides the characters' fates. It’s a fun, spooky episode that unearths the brilliance of Cabin in the Woods while touching on classic horror tropes, the Buffy-verse, and even a little Aaron Sorkin fangirling. So, grab your favorite horror movie snack, settle in, and let’s venture deep into the woods—just remember to follow our horror survival rules and never read the Latin!
