Overrated/ Underrated? Horror edition!

We are back with an episode that turned out to be one of our favorites. Today we are playing the horror version of Overrated/Underrated! We discuss heavy hitters such as Trick 'r Treat, Halloween, Scream, Terrifier, Child's Play, Hereditary, and so many others to determine if they deserve the hype or fall in the overrated category. This concept also led us down some random paths such as discussing which theater snacks are overhyped and whether jump scares are overrated.
