We're going somewhere new and different this week while we're in-between series. This week, we're discussin a film released just this October called DARK HARVEST, directed by David Slade based upon a book by Norman Partridge. The premise involves a secluded mid-western town in the 1960s wherein each Halloween, every able-bodied teenage boy in the town must starve and isolate themselves for three days before emerging to participate in a violent hunt for the legendary creature known as Sawtooth Jack. The stakes are high if the boys lose, but they may be even higher if they win.

We dive into this fascinating film and the ways it reflects not only our relationship to the systems which govern our everyday lives, but the ways it subtly comments on our relationships with power and control. Also featuring a Patron only segment where we try the brand new FoG game, Six Degrees of Horror Icons, this is a very heartfelt discussion that we hope you enjoy!
