This week, I'm taking a trip to a very different horror house - the Last House on Dead End Street!

We're also getting into how it plays with our cultivated sense of fiction like Funny Games, exploits Last House on the Left, and is ultimately totally unique. Don't miss out on this one! Content warning for those watching before listening: there is a pretty intense scene of animal death in Last House on Dead End Street.
